Re: Anyone interested in a RealGM fantasy football league?
I might be interested even though I have already drafted 41 teams so far.

Re: Anyone interested in a RealGM fantasy football league?
I'd be down. I run quite a few of them every year. Due to having done fantasy for so long, I now usually have rosters where you start 2 qbs and individual defensive players. I always thought the concept of team defense as one player was a bit ridiculous especially since it included stuff like punt returns and kickoff returns.

Re: Anyone interested in a RealGM fantasy football league?
I'd do it. I really have to decide which leagues to join or not as of now I have at least 3 right now & would love to narrow it down to 2 as that's hard to keep up with (especially with a wife & four children).

Re: Anyone interested in a RealGM fantasy football league?
bleu set one up and the current plan is to run a league where you can start up to two qbs, and you will start individual defensive players, so it will be a little more fun and interesting than a standard league. For those who haven't done individual defensive players, there are rankings here. http://www.espn.com/fantasy/football/story/_/id/15499951/fantasy-football-idp-rankings-2016-espn-nfl-ranks-defensive-linemen-linebackers-defensive-backs-rookies
There will be 1 DL, 1 LB and 1 DB, and one DP (any defensive player).
If you haven't played in a 2 qb league, it's fun, but make sure not to take two with the same bye week. Also, with one of them, you will have the capability to start a different offensive positional player in that slot if your 2nd qb gets injured or has a bye, etc.

C'mon now. Stick to a standard league or I'm out. Don't need individual defensive players. That's ridiculous.

Ridiculous? Team D is ridiculous. But nonetheless, you don't have to play if you don't know individual players on defense well.

I know most players. I just think its not necessary. What's so bad about a standard league (1 QB, Team D, K, Flex, etc.) I've never done it any other way. I assume most others haven't either.
If you want to add a 2nd QB that's fine.

I always thought Team D was stupid. Not only does it not really have anything to do with capturing how good a team D is and only focuses on sack, interceptions, but it throws in special teams tds and stuff. I just think that entire luck of that capture all is stupid. As many of people as do fantasy now, I'm surprised more people haven't thought the same, though I know a lot of people do IDP and for the most part, beginners do team D.
It obviously takes a little more strategy but they usually don't have a huge impact on scoring. 1 pt per tackle or pass defensed, 3-4 for int or sack and 6 for td. JJ Watt was a monster a couple of years ago in leagues.
I actually wasn't sure I'd join this one because I don't like standard ones but talked to bleu and he was open and thought people would find it fun, but if vast majority or a bunch of people sign up who just want standard, I can opt out of league too.

Okay, I might sit this one out. Depending upon what the consensus is.

I can PM him but he hasn't even logged into RealGM since August 10th.

I think so. The people who have joined so far are all some of the more active posters on the nfl forum. We are using espn. From the ones I have used I find it the best layout with more options, a good live draft, etc. I've also done yahoo and cbs but they are not as good. Haven't done nfl.com though

We will have to see what works out for everyone. If everyone is U.S. based probably at night or on a weekend. If there are some international participants, it will depend on where they are, but if it is in Europe it would most likely have to be on the weekend.
