Re: Fantasy Tips
too each is own but seriously bye week should be one of the least things you are worried about. Honestly read that VBD article and do the exercise, it makes ton of sense.

Re: Fantasy Tips
Agreed it's not a huge deal, just something to keep in mind is all. I didn't say to obsess on it or use it as your main guide in a draft. I've seen times where a team had 2 guys out one week and 2-3 out another week. That's an issue unless you have an extremely deep bench.

Re: Fantasy Tips
I'd personally rather have all my players on a bye in one week, not make any pickups, and throw the game. I'd rather be 0% strength for one week than 85% strength for like 7 games.
I don't pay attention to bye weeks. They fall where they fall, I just want guys who will get me to the playoffs, but more importantly, guys who will be playing well when I get there.

I will say it again if you understand the VBD system are a variation of it bye weeks mean nothing in determining the overall value of your player becasue everyone has that variable so it levels the playing field in regards to bye weeks.

Re: Fantasy Tips
God bless you guys if you love FF that much where you're running spreadsheets and using formulas. I love FF, but not that much.

Re: Fantasy Tips
I stare at spreadsheets all day at work, last thing I want to do is work with them at home too.

LOL! I agree, excel is such a powerful tool especially if you are good at VBA.

Re: Fantasy Tips
Buster, are you drunk? Kickers weren't taken until the 14th round in that draft.

Re: Fantasy Tips
So my draft begins in couple of hours...what do you guys think about C.J. Spiller. I really want him, but maybe in a later round?
