Naanee caught 5 passes on 8 targets. I'm not sure if I would call that several drops. Especially considering Floyd caught 3 passes on 12 targets.

Personally I like to go for upside guys. The only way I grab a handcuff is if I have a guy the does have a history of injuries. I would rather take a flyer on somebody. If they don't pan out I can drop them and grab someone that is showing a little more promise. Heck, in one league I drafted Doucet, Naanee, and Jacoby Jones. If one of them hits great. If not, no major damage that late in the draft.

In one league I am in the low scorer each week has to pay $10. That money goes to the person who wins total points. In another league we pay weekly high scorer ($25). We also have a toilet bowl bracket that the winner gets $30. Its not a ton, but gives guys a chance to win back some of their money. It also gives them bragging right over the non-playoff teams.

Mike, I am having issues inputting data from the projection pal to the compiler. The they are both in the original spot they were downloaded. They did not unzip on download, but have been unzipped since. I keep getting a run time error saying it is not in the same directory. The files have not been renamed. Any ideas? It has been driving me crazy for the better half of two days.

Hey Mike, If I remember correctly last year there were some tutorial videos up for using projection pal and the compiler. I was wondering if they are posted somewhere else on the site? I seen your videos for the Draftbuddy for fantasy baseball on youtube, but did not see any for fantasy football compiler.

One of the funnier names I have seen was "Big Swingin' Ditkas".

Do you have to give up anything to keep players? (Maybe forfeit a draft pick) If so is it different based on player draft position or last years production? If all things are equal I would be leaning toward J. Charles or Brandon Marshall. I always like to look at it from the aspect of: If these guys were on the board at my pick, who would I draft. Charles and Marshall would be the top 2 for me. Also, how many WRs do you have to start?

We are in our 10th year. Regular season record determines draft order for non-playoff teams. Final standings determine draft spot for playoff teams. League Champ drafts last, worst non-playoff team drafts first. We can keep 3 players, they take up draft picks in the first 3 rounds. Draft is 1-12 in the first 3 rounds, starts to serpentine (12-1) in round 4. It gives the guys early in the draft a better chance of making up the talent gap. Players go back into the player pool every 3 years.

I am gonna go just crazy. Schaub will be fine. Sure there is a great chance he could be putting it on auto-pilot, but there is a chance that Cambell could lay an egg. Schaub is the safe play. With my other QB it is considerable, but we I deciding between starting Alex Smith and Cambell. Six of one, half dozen of the other.

I am on the fence with White. But I am leaning toward staring Meachem in his place.

12 Team Keeper league (Keep 4) drafted 11th. Partial ppr, start 1QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1TE, 1K, 1 DEF QB: Palmer and Garrard RB: Slaton, McFadden, Rice, and Bradshaw WR: A. Johnson, Megatron, White, B. Edwards, and H. Nicks TE: Z. Miller and Celek. (We are required to carrt 2 TEs)

We do 4 divisions of 3. Division match-ups are Weeks 1-3 and 11-13, so nobody has people on a bye. You play everyone once, except division opponents you play them twice.

We do four divisions of three teams. Play everyone in your division twice, everbody else once. We even make it so you play people in division weeks 1-3 and 11-13 that way you are not playing a division opponent when a player is on a bye week. The four division winners and two wildcards make the playoffs.

We went through this a few years ago. We based keepers on the previous years draft but limited it to one player at per position for the first year. (Since trades in the previous year were made without regard to the future.) We allowed any player to be kept, up to 3 players. You had to give up your first through third round picks for each player you kept. We also limited the number of years you can keep a player so the same guy does not have LT until he retires.

I agree with MTSkiBum, if you can keep the player forever (no limit on # of years) Rivers is the better long-term investment. If it is just a short-term thing then take Kitna.
