3 WRs

Since it looks like the 1 QB rule will pass I propose we go to 3 WRs to make up for that spot. WRs are the most abondant position out there so it only makes sense to switch to them.

I oppose. I would like to keep the extra QB position open as an extra person to draft for the bench.

WR, bench was too crowded as is.

if every team added another bench player it would just make the FA pool thinner. In fact most teams would probably use that spot for an extra QB which would be counter productive to why we changed the QB rule in the first place. besides, WR are a dime a dozen.

It's true, there is a ton of WRs to use.

nice kittens Schaef

In our church league we have 2 WR, 2 RB, and a WR/RB position. You can play whatever position you want that week as long as it is either a WR or a RB so that might be an option.

If everyone wants it then that works, I hate flex spots though............not sure why

kevin said...

not a fan of the flex spot either. also 1qb 2rb 3wr 1te is pretty much your standard offense anyways, so it just makes sense.

Angie said...

The thing with the flex spot is that if you want to play 3 WRs than you can if you don'tlike Nick & Kevin) than you can play 3 RBs.

I oppose the idea of 3 WRS. Because the whole purpose of 2 QB's is to have a few extra in FA. Because there is less QBs out there to find if a injury would occure. In all the leagues I have been in there has never been 3 WR spots only 2. Yes there is a good abundance of WR's but why take that away by playing 3, then you have to draft possiably 4 or 5 and that is ridiculours. And not only that but what about the players who have contracted wr's already. 3 of the best are already off the board. I like a QB, 2RB's, 2WR's, TE, K, and DEF.

Perhaps I'm just slow, but each of these votes seems to turn into multiple topics. At the same time however, a lot of them all tie in together. I think we should make a new topic for the flex options.

I vote for 3 WR's, I want to replace the QB spot with a player not another benched player.

I vote for no extra player at all you don't need one.

The other thing is what is the point of a third WR, just replace the QB? Than if that is the case than leave as is.

i guess the point is we have an extra space now, so how are we going to use it. 3 WR works best because there are so many of them. you say the top three are already gone but you don't need three number 1 receivers. More and more offenses are going spread so there are tons of guys to pick up. I mean i drafted greg jennings in the last round of the draft and i picked up wes welker in like week 5.

i don't like the flex spot because i think every team should have to line up with the exact same positions.

personally i wouldn't mind if we could just cut a round from the draft and keep it 1qb, 2rb, 2wr, 3te, k, def. and the bench how it is. that way the FA pool would be better. i really don't want to add to the bench.

kevin said...

that should be 1te, not 3. went jumbo set there for a second.

I'm still a fan of the Backup slot idea.

One extra slot that can only be used to pick up a backup for a player you currently have on your team. If the main gets injured, and you decide to drop him in favor of the now playing backup, then the backup slot opens up again.

This does require people to not suck, and only use the slot on a player's backup, not just to hoard more starting running backs.

I ment 1 te thanks for catching that Shaf. I like the backup idea better.

Pink Rabbits said...

The backup idea would be sweet if I didn't have to babysit every team and make sure they weren't breaking the rules. If yahoo kept track of it then I'd be sold.

Also Joe you wanted 1 QB because you didn't like the lack of them last year, now you want tons of WRs running around too? why dont we just have 1 Rb too, maybe that would make you happier, :)

I'm with Schaef on this one, either we go 3 WR or we cut a round off the draft, I don't want an extra bench for people to just hoard the free players sitting around.

Also Woody has voted no to 3 WRs, it's a shocker I know *sarcasm*

Pink Rabbits said...

I'm not totally against a flex since that's somewhere in the middle of bench and 3 WR

Pink Rabbits said...

you guys should totally put a picture on your blogger profile, its sweet. I know you're looking at Schaefs post and mine and are "damn thats sweet"
