I just had a text thread in the past 24 hours that easily went over 500 texts arguing about IDP scoring. Here's what we ended up with...  This was to raise the level of our IDPs (LB, DL, DB, start one each) and try to make them more important without over-inflating linebackers. It was also designed to make DL important because they were getting like 3 points a game. The key was inflating stuffs and deflating tackles. Now #1 linebacker Wagner now 202.5, #1 DL Chandler Jones now 186, #1 DB Reshaud Jones now 177. That puts Wagner around Christian McCaffrey last year and Chandler around Devante Adams and Reshaud Jones around Lamar Miller. I think it worked out pretty great. They're important, they're relatively equal and not too valuable that it totally screws up how we think about the draft. The real problem is linebackers freakin fill up the stat sheet and defensive backs get no points for "throwing to the other side of the field". You cannot believe how many passionate arguments were made where we almost got to an agreement and some idiot chimes in "I never liked IDPs let's just go back to team defense!" gently caress that guy.

Both Bell and Zeke are facing likely yearlong bans if they have any more off the field issues, whereas Davod Johnson appears to be an angel. I think they are both past that stuff, but it's still a non-zero risk.

This is a good and fair point when evaluating players that are more or less a coinflip choice. e: I might try and do something like offer 3+27 for 4+21 to the guy picking 4th. Wouldn't mind moving up at the 2/3 turn and being happy with whichever of DJ and Zeke falls to me.

Cardinals are being underrated. Bradford will be healthy this year (he's good for one healthy year for every 2). Bradford, when playing, is plenty better than Carson Palmer and is the most accurate QB in the league. Cardinals just need competency at the QB position to be a top 10 unit again. Bradford offers that and plenty more. That's not considering Josh Rosen.

I'd also just rather cheer for David Johnson the human than Ezekiel Elliott the human, so barring any significant news through the rest of the preseason I'll probably lean that way.

Any reason why MFL won't give me the option to trade draft picks for this year anymore? I haven't changed any settings and as of a few days ago it was an option. I just agreed to a trade today (draft is tonight) and I want to make it legit. Edit: Changed the draft type to another option and that fixed it. Weird.

Am I misremembering or is the Cardinals oline going to be shittier this year? We've also just already seen Zeke do great with a bad Cowboys passing offense, still scoring 9 TDs in 10 games last year. Anyway, like I said, no strong preference for me and it isn't like I think DJ will be anything but awesome. We've just seen Zeke be almost as awesome as DJ's best just last year (125 yards and a touchdown per game). Though yeah, PPR is going to swing it decently towards DJ even if Zeke does catch more passes this year than previously, I've been totally neglecting that, huh.

For dynasty league players, how much is your league Salary Cap Amount? I know that's a bit arbitrary, but I'm trying to figure out a good amount to deal with for a full offense and IDP (no coach, oline, punters). I was thinking $200, but that's a standard amount for redraft regular auction leagues. I know some people will even do millions of dollars. I guess to make it kind of realistic.

89 posted:For dynasty league players, how much is your league Salary Cap Amount? Whatever you set it at, it will take a few years for the values to become realistic. Especially first year because it’s pretend money and most are still in redraft mode not realizing how screwed they are the next 2-4 years with a WR that is 30%+ of their cap.

89 posted:For dynasty league players, how much is your league Salary Cap Amount? We do $250, with teams having $100 in FAAB each year, and with IR costing half a player's salary and taxi costing 0 of a player's salary. In our fourth year, these are our top salaries in the league... everything above $40: Antonio Brown: $75 Le'Veon Bell and Julio Jones: 62 Dez Bryant: $59 (dropped to FA) Gronk: $53 (Dropped to FA) Odell Beckham: $51 DeAndre Hopkins: $47 DeMarco Murray: $47 (dropped to FA) AJ Green: $45 Demaryius Thomas: $43 Lamar Miller: $42 (dropped to FA) Mike Evans and Aaron Rodgers: $41 here's the full list I think this shows that half the cap is about the ceiling, and no teams afford more than two of them (some teams have none in that list), and that only a few players wind up priced above about a third of the cap. I think what really matters is getting the cap in good ratio with the faab, bench depth, rate of salary increases, and to have a large enough number to make the minimum salary (we use whole numbers, so $1 in our case) be reasonably small. Beyond that, everything can scale in proportion, so it's arbitrary.

That's one season, the result of a very particular offensive scheme. That says more about the Vikes play-calling than Bradford, who holds a career 62.5% completion rate. Describing him as "the most accurate QB in the league" is laughable.

The exact number matters not at all, just % of cap, so use something like 1,000 that lets you use nice granular bids (0.1% of cap vs 0.5 or 1% with a 200 or 100 budget), but is still a nice easy number to convert bids to % of cap.

The statement is not as absurd as it appears, as Alfalfa already showed. Having said that, his "record" was beaten this past season by Drew Brees. I actually did a write up last year on how vastly different Bradford's 2016 season was compared to Brees' 2017. Long story short, accurate /= better.

How can I set League Minimum Salaries in MFL? Also, I don't see anywhere in the options to track contracts? How can I set a salary increase automatically each year for all players under contract? Alfalfa has been a huge help with sending me his league's settings. I've sent him a ton of questions and feel kind of bad, lol. Is there someone with a bunch of knowledge of dynasty salary cap leagues and MFL I can holler at on Slack or some messenger? 89 fucked around with this message at 23:33 on Aug 16, 2018 |

89 posted:How can I set League Minimum Salaries in MFL? Also, I don't see anywhere in the options to track contracts? Generally I think salaries are set when a player is aquired, or you can batch apply a salary to every player (or every FA?) but I don't think there's a place where you can set a fixed minimum salary. You can set a minimum bid for free agency pickups - we use $1 for example - which should effectively set a minimum salary for rostered players. e. The "Salary Cap Setup" option is the one that has most of this stuff. quote:How can I set a salary increase automatically each year for all players under contract? Each year you have to trigger a rollover of your league to the next year. MFL lets you do this after they implement code changes for their site. After doing that, there's a tool you can optionally use to apply a blanket increase in salary. However it's a dumb tool: you can increase by a dollar amount or a percentage, but you can't do a smart thing like "10% or $1, whichever is larger." So in my league a commissioner updates all the salaries of owned players manually. It takes about an hour? There's also an "Import player salaries and contracts" tool which is basically a textbox you can cut & paste players into, so you can do it all in a spreadsheet or something if you prefer. And finally, there's a tool for using "packaged" salaries and contracts, with a few options that MFL provides. You can copy from another league, generate them based on previous year stats, or use MFL's default salaries. quote:Alfalfa has been a huge help with sending me his league's settings.
