    not fussed about the number of defensive players, 5 is fine with me, but make sure the others agree

    Everyone, click on "Rules", then "Scoring Rules" then each position to see the scoring rules. If you think we need changes, tell me. I guessed at a few.

    Then, we need a consensus of the following items:

    1) Number and position of defensive players
    2) Scoring for receiving yards to make WR's more valuable
    3) We've always had one point for tackles, but none for assists. I think we should count assists...should we?
    4) Draft here or on the page I need this answer now. Moe's been on the clock and I will turn it off soon if he doesn't show up or we decide to draft here.


    Other questions to follow, I'll be back in a little while. Discuss.

    1) Number and position of defensive players

    I liked the 3 flex so you could use 3 linebackers or 2 LB's and a DB or whatever combo. Don't like being forced to use a DL (just my opinion)

    2) Scoring for receiving yards to make WR's more valuable

    Every 100 yds is a 5 pt bonus

    3) We've always had one point for tackles, but none for assists. I think we should count assists...should we?

    No

    4) Draft here or on the page I need this answer now. Moe's been on the clock and I will turn it off soon if he doesn't show up or we decide to draft here.

    I'll leave that up to fade:cool:

    1) Number and position of defensive players
    I like B's original idea, DL are over looked but it adds another element to the draft and guys like Peppers and Kearse when healthy are semi-studs.

    2) Scoring for receiving yards to make WR's more valuable
    1pt for every 20 yds, check below for how I think bonuses should be awarded

    3) We've always had one point for tackles, but none for assists. I think we should count assists...should we?
    I don't think so and definitly not count the same as a solo tackle

    4) Draft here or on the page I need this answer now. Moe's been on the clock and I will turn it off soon if he doesn't show up or we decide to draft here.
    It's a tradition, I say we draft here, plus it's good for my post count;)


    These are just random thoughts for bonus yards
    Bonuses for yardage
    QB - 200(10pts) 250(15) +300(20)
    RB - 100(10) 125(15) +150(20)
    WR - 100(10) 125(15) +150(20)

    We could just have assists points for DL's only to make them more valuable.

    You went backwards on the WR's...it's already 1 point every 15 yds.

    I think those bonuses are too high, maybe 1,2,and 3 instaed of 10, 15, and 20

    Yeah, those bonus points are way too high SSG. 5 points for a 300 yard passing game is plenty.

    yeah I'm also not sure about DLs

    and unless everyone wants DLs then just solo tackles, if DLs are in the they can get assist pts.

    last year someone suggested bonus/more pts for long field goals, i am interested in that

    some bonuses esp for WR would be good.

    ??? It's all decided, we just need to tweak those minor issues listed earlier.

    Another thing to decide...Injured reserve. How many players on IR? I vote 3 since football is tougher than baseball

    I like this one, except for that crappy stone age font on top.

    - I'd like to have players get half a point per assisted tackle. There were times last year when Derrick Brooks got like 1 solo tackle and 10 assisted. I think it would be fairer for him to get 6 points instead of 1 for scenarios like this.

    - I like the idea of bonuses for high yardage games. SSG's numbers are waaaay too high, though. 1, 2 or 3 extra points for each level are more than enough.

    - I personally would not like to increase the number of defensive players. 3 is enough. Having a mandatory DL, LB and DB might be fun. Or perhaps a four player system: DL, LB, DB, Def.Flex.


    My opinions really shouldn't count for much, though, since I'm just around for the draft and won't be participating in the actual season.



    Here was our complete scoring system last year, in case nobody posted it yet:

    Touchdown 6
    2 Point Conversion (rush, receive or pass) 2
    Every 15 yards (Rushing/Receiving) 1
    Every 30 yards Passing 1
    Fumble (only if lost) -3
    Interception (thrown) -3
    Field Goal 3
    Field Goal (over 50 yds) 1
    PAT (kicking) 1
    Touchbacks (kicking) 1

    Blocked Kick (punt, field goal or PAT) 5
    Every 50 yards Returning (Special Teams/Defense) 1
    Tackle 1
    Sack 3
    Pass Defended 1
    Interception (caught) 4
    Forced Fumble 3
    Fumble Recovery (Defensive) 4
    Safety 5



    Also, I'd prefer to draft here in this thread rather than on the site.

    Agree with all of fade suggestions, especially the 4 Def players comprimise.

    do the bonues' suggested cover the bonues' others have asked for WRs???

    I think for receivers, we could make it a point for every ten yds, then add the bonus' in just like the QB or RB.

    Smeg, which defensive compromise? 4 flex or DL, LB, DB, and one flex?
