Sterling Archer Posted July 26, 2010 Author Share Posted July 26, 2010 Still early over there, probably be waiting for a bit. Notice that there's more and more autopicks going on now, good to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sterling Archer Posted July 26, 2010 Author Share Posted July 26, 2010 (edited) Forrester's up, his second autopick didn't go through. Hope he notices! I think it failed due to roster limitations. You're only allowed to roster 2 Defences and 2 kickers at any point in time. Edited July 26, 2010 by The Holy Spirit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucky Thompson Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 You're only allowed to roster 2 Defences and 2 kickers at any point in time. That's good to know as I won't have to worry about my next kicker as I'm sure to get one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sterling Archer Posted July 26, 2010 Author Share Posted July 26, 2010 That's good to know as I won't have to worry about my next kicker as I'm sure to get one I thought I'd put that up earlier in the thread, I can't be bothered to go back and look. It's definately in the rules somewhere! It's not usually a rule you'd need to put in place but as we've got 16 teams in the league it's necessary. No-one should really have 3 D's or Kickers anyway!

Nucky Thompson Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 No-one should really have 3 D's or Kickers anyway! True but someone might want 3 to use one of them as a bargaining tool in a future trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peebo Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Maybe the rule should be removed then? I think so. The rosters are so big, I see no sense in restricting the numbers of each position. If people want to hoard Defences, for example, I think that that is a perfectly acceptable drafting strategy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that with only 32 teams and 16 in the league it would mean people could be unable to start one during byes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 To be fair, I've got 4 picks left and have purposely not picked D/ST PK until now knowing that they would definitely be teams left due to the rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that with only 32 teams and 16 in the league it would mean people could be unable to start one during byes. True, but then I think they should factor this into their draft picks. The restriction adds in a variable which makes the draft slightly unfair, in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sterling Archer Posted July 26, 2010 Author Share Posted July 26, 2010 Well we'll see what happens with the poll. If it comes out that people want the restriction lifted we can do that, by that point (after the draft) everyone will have had fair opportunity at 2 d's and 2 kickers each. If they choose not to use that opportunity (remaining picks) then the rest are fair game on the waiver wire, that seems like a decent compromise?

Larry Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I'm all for opening up the roster limits once the draft is over. But I won't vote in favour of it in case it means opening it up before the last few rounds are complete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Del1812 Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Bollocks. Three defenses would have had me sorted for the next few years and could conceivably have weakened one of my opponents. It also could have given me the opportunity for a one sided trade for a fellow user that was desperate. Oh well, think I'll nab another receiver instead.
