I have four openings left in the expert league. It's a 12 man PPR league, using individual defensive players. Lots of ways to score points. If you want in reply here or PM me your email addy.

Draft is tomorrow (Tuesday) night at 8:30 pm.

I might be out...but I'm still trying to see.

Tuesday is an awful night for me to draft and this is a league where an autodraft can ruin you if there are truly 12 people in the league.

I'm tempted to join, even though I've never played in a IDP league before. A smarter man wouldn't start with an expert league. Can you give me some more information? Which site do you use, snake or auction, required roster spots, etc?

If I wasn't already in 3. I'm not doing anymore.

Shameless plug; if anyone wants a standard league 10 person and with CUSAbbs posters see the post on the main board I made a couple days back. I think we still have 2-3 spots remaining. No experience required. Draft Sunday night.

It's a yahoo league, free. IDP is pretty easy - look at some web pages for the current rankings, same as everything else. It's not all that expert, but there was an existing BT league and this had PPR and IDP. I had to call it something. Try it, it's fun.

Points out the ying yang anyhow, lol. If I don't get some bodies to make 10 or 12 I'm gonna open up to whoever on Yahoo to get at least ten.

Need one more for ten. Jump in.

I'm in. PM me the information.

Ok, we've hit ten teams. We'll run the league at that.

Thanks.

8:30, I may be drafting under the influence by then.

Based on Week 1 projections, our host UAB Band Dad has the highest scoring team. I'm two points below him, and then there's a bit of a drop. I think I'm gonna like this league.

I'm next, just below that "big drop-off (16)" I wouldn't read too much into those projections yet...they can and most likely will change

I'm very pleased with how the draft fell out. I got very solid RB's that catch a lot of passes, Graham at TE, Stafford at QB. My weakest area is WR, but even there I got good depth and good value. Went TE, RB, RB, WR, WR, contrarian in a PPR league, but being out of synch with the run let me scoop up guys I wanted. Very good quality in my D players as well.

You know how it is, a bad day or an injury can mess things up fast. We're all undefeated at this point.

I said a bit of a drop, not a big drop. Nobody wins their league on draft night, but I'm glad it looks like I had a good draft.

You might not win it on draft night, but you can damn sure lose it. Drafting 9th of 10, I was very happy with what I was able to put together. Some of the choices made upstream of me helped, mostly I just got lucky the way things flowed.
