mainor5251 Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Just did a mock draft on a 8 team league, had some idiot take Victor Cruz #1 overall. QB: Peyton Manning RB: Doug Martin RB: CJ Spiller WR: AJ Green WR: Larry Fitzgerald WR: Danny Amendola TE: Antonio Gates K: Stephen Gostkowski DEF: Chicago Got back ups like tom brady, steven ridley. Dont think I will be this fortunate come sept 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think I will be this fortunate come sept 2. No, I won't be taking Cruz #1 (even if I get #1). I do have a question though as I haven't done this in several years. How many draft picks do we get? The roster section only shows eight slots and I'm wondering how I'm going to provide enough backups for my starters during the bye weeks without doing a lot streaming mid season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mike Posted August 14, 2013 Author Share Posted August 14, 2013 15 round draft. 9 starters, 6 bench. I may trim the IDP off making it 14 rounds. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Thanks Mike, So we're talking one Qb, One RB, three WRs, one TE, one K, one IDP and a defensive squad? Or a starting line-up of eight without the IDP?

kandyking Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Have we dug up more than 5 people yet? Time to send PMs to your friends on the forum and get the King some challengers. Shooting fish in a barrel is always more fun with more fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or a starting line-up of eight without the IDP? Correct. I like the IDP but will drop it if no one likes it. Either way we will have 6 BN spots. I will go fishing for players here on the boards. I have a good friend in my hip pocket if we cant make it to at least 8 teams or if we have an odd number. As far as draft order goes. If we don't want to mess with drawing order before the draft yahoo will just randomly set the order for the online draft. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandyking Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Why not ditch the IDP and add another RB or flex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike The draft order doesn't matter as long as it's random (and I get first pick ) - actually, I think I'd rather have the sixth pick so I can get two pretty high players.

Big Mike Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 Why not ditch the IDP and add another RB or flex. Works for me. This is the setup we use on our money league.

kandyking Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 We really need to dig up a few more players. 5 people is a sad turn out. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eighteen days to go - I think Steve W. is in if he can find his log in and Mike's got another one in his pocket. Hopefully they're all just procrastinating - or maybe they just enjoy watching the King squirm Works for me. This is the setup we use on our money league.

Happy Vending Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I am in, but you guys will regret allowing me in I have had a serious league going for the past 7 years. It's keeper, PPR, IDP with 16 teams, 4 divisions. If we're playing with some people new to fantasy then I don't recommend IDP. Most places (especially yahoo) don't rank the defensive players appropriately and newbies get lost. If you're hoping to get this to be an annual thing then I do recommend keepers. Just my 2 cents. Let me know who I should send my email address to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caserri Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 If you're hoping to get this to be an annual thing... This will be our 6th season so I would say its already an annual thing. Thanks for playing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandyking Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I fear you will need to change your company name to depressed vending or perhaps battered and forlorn vending when this season is finished. You, my friend, have entered into the kingdom and all who enter the kingdom eventually, albeit reluctantly, bend a knee to their rightful King.

Pfft, it's easy to be King in Kandyland my friend, but your now walking into the wolf's den. I will be very Happy to have a king gravel at my feet before the end of this year ....and I am looking forward to taking your cute little banner too.

kandyking Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Welcome Happy Vending! Finally this is starting to shape up to be an actual season. Thank you for noticing my banner. It is the trumpet to let newcomers like you know that Fantasy Football Royalty has entered the conversation. Typically I make someone like you earn the right to play me but I would relish the chance to show a "wolf" that he is, in fact, a puppy dog. Soon I will teach you to roll over and to beg.

Happy Vending Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 This will be our 6th season so I would say its already an annual thing. Thanks for playing! It just seems that not many of the managers are rejoining and that's the best solution that I have found. I think finding new managers and having managers that don't care are the two biggest problems with most fantasy leagues. Keepers and money solve both of those problems, but I can also understand just wanting to keep it casual. Looking forward to a fun year however you guys decide that we play!

Like most peacocks that flash their colors, I assume that you need to relish in your "big victory" last year because it's an uncommon thing. I could give you merits, but I'd prefer to show you rather than tell you. Besides, how could anyone possibly find the Kandy King intimidating?

kandyking Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Happy, I think you may have just redesigned my logo. I love it! Do you know why I talk so much trash? Because no one who has ever played the game has been as good as me. None have ever been my equal, hence I have no role models. Lets hope this drums up a little excitement and gets us a few more people in the league. I think a 12 person league is the sweet spot. It may be a lofty goal for us but it would be nice.

mainor5251 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Never get 12, not this year. Would be lucky to get 10. And kandy king that is a way better logo, make the switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
