1st ever $ league i'm doing with a 200 dollar buy. I thought I was all set til I checked the rules. Now I not sure whether i take rodger brady brees over rice foster mccoy?

does this change now?

[Ethan1122]

That is how my money league is and I am definitely going QB first. The top quarterback last year had 529 points (Rodgers) while the top HB only had 307 points (Rice). 9 QBs outscored Rice in my league including Philip Rivers, Matt Ryan, and Tony Romo. If you can get a top flight QB I think you have no choice but to take one.

thats what i thought Ethan. I wanted to just do "value picks" but this has got me thinking another way. anyone else?

[Robber]

Qb first when six for pass Td

Gotta go try to get rodgers

[ttwarrior1]

makes no difference to me, its about your team total points. Don't draft a qb in rd 1 unless one really fell.

[Ethan1122]

The way I look at it. If a HB goes for 100 and a TD that's 16 points. A QB throws for 2 TDs and is only 2 point behide the HB not including yards.

[playersonly69]

qb in round 1 or go home

[wquine]

TT, why do you feel differently from the rest of us?

[wquine]

Here are the settings:

Offense

• Passing Yards:1 point per 25 yards
  
• Passing Touchdowns:6 points
  
• Interceptions Thrown:-2 points
  
• 300-399 Passing Yards Bonus:2 points
  
• 400+ Passing Yards Bonus:4 points
  
• Rushing Yards:1 point per 10 yards
  
• Rushing Touchdowns:6 points
  
• 100-199 Rushing Yards Bonus:2 points
  
• 200+ Rushing Yards Bonus:4 points
  
• Receiving Yards:1 point per 10 yards
  
• Receiving Touchdowns:6 points
  
• 100-199 Receiving Yards Bonus:2 points
  
• 200+ Receiving Yards Bonus:4 points
  
• Fumble Recovered for TD:6 points
  
• Fumbles Lost:-2 points
  
• 2-Point Conversions:2 points
  
  
  Considering there's also a bonus for 300+ yards passing I think that I have to try anything I can to get a top tier QB!!!
  

[me-first]

I'd prefer a qb in the 1st round with these settings but I wouldn't take an otherwise 3rd, 4th or 5th round qb in round 1 ..but yeah, if I'm picking in the top 3 it would be a qb..

[Wrigley]

Take a QB first in that situation

[wquine]

Alright, thanks for the affirmation guys, if Rodgers, Brady, Bree's or stafford(maybe) are available than I'll take them.

[rsnnh12]

ARod, Brady, Brees are must draft if you have the chance. Otherwise, take a top RB early and see where the remaining QBs get drafted. A lot of people don't adjust their strategy to the scoring settings. Might be able to get Eli/Romo/Ryan in the 5th-6th round. Much better value for 6 pt passing TD than Cam/Vick in the first 3 rounds

[wquine]

Def agree with u rsnnh12, if I can't nab one of the big three then getting Ryan much later would be great value, looks like they are going to be pass heavy this season.
