Re: 2008 PF.com Fantasy Football

Personally, I like the PR/KR stats. It throws more players into the mix. Give some props to those crazy returners that risk their lives with 11 angry people running full speed at them.

That was actually exactly why I added it, to make the pool of draft worthy WRs a bit larger.

I do agree with you though, that their value shouldn't exceed that of legit WRs. The value of KR/PR yards can be adjusted, as can the value/weight of any other stat. Maybe that's something that whoever volunteers (I nominate Tater) to be commish can look at.

To be honest, I think WR is one of the deepest positions. And yes, I can see how it mixes things up a bit, but I don't see who is going to draft someone like Josh Cribbs purely based on his PR/KR abilities (let alone start him for that matter).
But that's not the main problem cos I don't think anyone would start a PR/KR. I'm thinking more that I guess I just don't like the idea of guys lucking out on drafts by picking a borderline draftable WR4/5 in Round 14 (think Nate Burleson last year) and then getting lucky when he becomes the teams KR and having him become a better fantasy producer than someone who picked a proper WR2/3 in the 4th round of the draft.

Ya feel me?

I'd also be happy with a de-valued option, but if everyone wants to keep it in there, I'll deal with it. No problem.

You're just mad my Leon Washington beat you up last year. Deal with it.
They only get 1 pt for 25 yards. RB & WR get 1 pt. per 10 yards.

Re: 2008 PF.com Fantasy Football

Damnit. You're right Jammer. I'm an addict. I can't bear to miss football even though it's my least favorite. But the thought of crushing you bums even one extra time is too tempting to pass on.


I'm in...if I can make the draft.

But I'm NOT commish!!

I'm going back to Michigan for the first time in 4 years on Tuesday and staying about 10 days. Then I will be camping the next weekend. So, I'll be available to draft any time after August 11th. I'm pretty much available any day, but Mondays aren't so good because my kid plays hockey.

Hellooooooo. Anyone stupid enough, er, brave enough to take the job?


Hey, how about giving credit for receptions. So like .5 per catch plus any yards gained?

I agree with Bill. I also like the pr/kr stats.
