So it's not just you, it's your whole league.

Hi Pong!

Hi Pong!

I want them to push it back at least until June 15th but no dice. After the rookie draft the free agent bidding begins. Its basically like ebay.. but everytime there is a high bid the 24 hour clock starts over. Most don't feel there will be enough time. I on the other hand have a feeling that there will be 3 weeks of dead time.

Whats the deal with drafting coaches?

You don't draft coaches. You get to pick your coach. If your coaches team wins you get 3 points. If they lose you get zero. The only thing you really use a coach for is assigning dead years.

Say I decided to cut Peyton Manning this year. This year I'd get 1/2 of his salary back and his contract years would move to my coach. You can never get out of dead years. Next year I'd get the other 1/2 of his salary back.


I'll get a link for the site. Its a great in depth league.

Way to complicated.Doesnt everyone pick the same 3 coaches?

Great site! You can go anywhere from 2 teams to 32 teams.. playoffs, points etc etc. I saw one league that has 32 teams and they run the same schedule as the NFL. Very intense and requires long term planning.

The coaches are picked via random draft order... A coach can only be on 1 team.

What's the year status/contract years? One is the years remaining, what's the other? I don't do IDP but it doesn't look like a big part of your salary anyways. I'd love to see some salaries of other players to compare your big boys. Holt might be a bit overpaid. You could probably get a serviceable kicker for less than $15. As said earlier, 1.6 looks to give you the 2nd choice WR or QB, the 4th choice RB or first choice at any other position. I'll wait for clarification on the contract years and maybe a salary comparison on WRs and RBs (for Parker) before I recommend anything...

At 1.6 would be early. At RB you should be looking at M. Bush, B. Jackson or C. Henry.

Ideally I'd like to trade my sixth pick and Holt for Fitzy..

Then I could save some cap.
