Mike,

 

I lost my old spreadsheet and can't import my old settings. I tried to reenter them but i can't seem to get my baselines set correctly. Any suggestions on how you would set the baselines with the following rules? We have 3 active WR and it seems like my RB rankings are way to high.

 

18 player max

 

POSITION ACTIVE MIN ACTIVE MAX ROSTER TOTAL

QB 1 1

RB 1 1

WR 3 3

TE 1 1

RB-WR-TE 1 1

K 1 1

DST 1 1

Hi stlku. Hmm… well, not sure why RB are getting overvalued, but from the settings shown should be:

 

starters QB = 1, RB = 1, WR = 3, TE = 1 , K = 1, O-Flex = 1, DEF = 1

 

bench (9) QB = 1, RB = 2, WR = 3, TE = 1, K = 1, DEF = 1

 

Make sure to check off all of RB, WR and TE as being included in the flex. Since you only start 1 RB vs. 3 WR before the flex, the flex spot probably will be most running backs.

 

Is this similar settings to what you have?

yes the only changes i made were to the back ups I only put in 1 kicker and 1 def as starters and no backups. I added one WR and one RB to my bench. I was playing around with the baselines to see how if I could bump up my WR to put a bit more importance on that position since they seemed low in rankings. With all the baselines set at 1.0 the first WR was ranked at #21 overall which seemed low. Would you keep it at that or adjust the WR baseline up?

In a lot of leagues I would set backup K and DEF to 0, but in your case you have a lot of backups relative to the starters. I would start by putting 1 in each of those positions instead of the additional RB and WR, and run the results and see what you get from that. While half a point per reception is not a ton, I would think the WR should be pretty well distributed amongst the RB in the Top 20.
