Mars2469 0 Posted August 19, 2005 I could use a little help with the compiler and draft buddy. This is my first time using them and I believe that I have entered all the info correctly but, when I look at the projection and see WR in the first round knowing that RBs and QBs tend to go first. I am pretty sure i did something wrong. If someone is willing I could use some help setting this up. Basically i would like to send my league's scoring to someone and see if they get the same output. Scoring for Offensive Categories FG - Field Goals 3 points Plus 2 points for a FG of 40 to 49 Yds Plus 4 points for a FG of 50 to 59 Yds Plus 6 points for a FG of 60+ Yds FL - Fumble Lost, Including ST plays -2 points Pa2P - Passing Two-point Conversion 2 points PaInt - Passing Interception -2 points PaTD - Passing TD 6 points Plus 2 points for a PaTD of 40 to 59 Yds Plus 4 points for a PaTD of 60 to 79 Yds Plus 6 points for a PaTD of 80+ Yds PaYd - Passing Yards 0+ PaYds = 1 point for every 25 PaYds Plus a 5 point bonus @ 300+ PaYd Re2P - Receiving Two-point Conversion 2 points ReTD - Receiving TD 6 points Plus 2 points for a ReTD of 40 to 59 Yds Plus 4 points for a ReTD of 60 to 79 Yds Plus 6 points for a ReTD of 80+ Yds ReYd - Receiving Yards 0+ ReYds = 1 point for every 10 ReYds Plus a 5 point bonus @ 100+ ReYd Ru2P - Rushing Two-point Conversion 2 points RuTD - Rushing TD 6 points Plus 2 points for a RuTD of 40 to 59 Yds Plus 4 points for a RuTD of 60 to 79 Yds Plus 6 points for a RuTD of 80+ Yds RuYd - Rushing Yards 0+ RuYds = 1 point for every 10 RuYds Plus a 5 point bonus @ 100+ RuYd XP - Extra Points 1 point Scoring for Defensive Categories DFR - Defensive/ST Fumble Recovered (ID/DT/DST) 2 points DTD - Total Defensive and Special Teams TD 6 points Int - Interceptions 2 points PA - Points Against, Total Points Scored 0 - 6 PA = 8 points 7 - 13 PA = 6 points 14 - 20 PA = 4 points 21 - 27 PA = 2 points SACK - Sack 1 point STY - Safety 2 points YDS - Yards Allowed 0 - 49 YDSs = 12 points 50 - 99 YDSs = 10 points 100 - 149 YDSs = 8 points 150 - 199 YDSs = 6 points 200 - 249 YDSs = 4 points 250 - 299 YDSs = 2 points Thanks for the help Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike MacGregor 20 Posted August 19, 2005 Mars, sorry I didn't get a chance to respond to your email earlier. I was just running through all my emails and the forum. To truly answer this question, we need to know your starters and backups by position, and number of teams in your league too. My guess is WR are probably more valuable than your league is giving them credit for. I mean, if you start the same or more WR than RB, isn't a Randy Moss with 13-14 TD and 1,400 yards better than the 12th-14th ranked RB with 1,200 yards and 8 TD?

And how many bench players you have as well Example: 1 QB, 2 RB's, 2 WR's, 1 Flex, 1 TE, 1 DEF, 1 K Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike MacGregor 20 Posted August 20, 2005 Hi Mars. I finally was able to input your settings in the Compiler. I came up with a pretty similar list. I probably have the backups slightly different than you, and I didn't input the complete scoring. Here is the top 20: 1 RB LaDainian Tomlinson SD 2 RB Priest Holmes KC 3 QB Peyton Manning IND 4 WR Randy Moss OAK 5 RB Shaun Alexander SEA 6 WR Chad Johnson CIN 7 RB Willis McGahee BUF 8 QB Daunte Culpepper MIN 9 WR Terrell Owens PHI 10 WR Torry Holt STL 11 RB Edgerrin James IND 12 RB Tiki Barber NYG 13 TE Tony Gonzalez KC 14 QB Donovan McNabb PHI 15 RB Deuce McAllister NO 16 RB Corey Dillon NE 17 WR Marvin Harrison IND 18 WR Javon Walker GB 19 WR Joe Horn NO 20 RB Julius Jones DAL WR are more important than you are giving them credit for, but not because of the scoring. It is because of your required starters and because you are in an 8 team league. See, there is a sizeable drop-off in the receivers after the top 5, and again after the top 12. RB on the other hand, while the top 3 are great, a little further down the list they do get and stay fairly similar to one another. Overall, the RB position is much deeper for quality guys, which is what you need in an 8 team league to win. In a league with more teams, we would go deeper down both RB and WR lists, and then there would be a bigger drop-off in RB and WR would become a deeper position, and RB would be more valuable. In your league, guys like DeShaun Foster and Warrick Dunn are ranked down in the 20s and are 60 points off the 7th ranked Deuce McAllister. The 20th or so WR, although they score less, are also 60 points off the top 7 WR. BUT, you start more WR in your league than RB, 24 vs. only 16. That is why WR are increasing in value. You want to make sure you get these top tier WR so you have a clear advantage at those positions, and then you can still draft good RB later on to fill the RB starter spots. Now, that isn't too say you should definitely draft a WR with a top 5 pick in your draft. If you can get a top WR (Chad Johnson, Holt, etc.) in the 2nd round, while still getting a top RB in the 1st, then that is the best way to approach your draft. Sorry this response took so long.

Guest ScottBrian Posted September 1, 2005 How do I change the 300 yd per game to 400 and the 100 yd rushing to 200 yd to make it compile correctly? also I see no where to put 2 pt conversions and our defenses get the six points on a return touchdown, but so does the player who did it... thanks..great product...made me in our super bowl two years in a row Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
