NFL Dynasty Asset Draft 2016 Interest + Rules Discussion - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

We discussed this a bit in the NFL offseason thread recently, so I wanted to see who was interested since we haven't done one of these in a while. Nothing complicated, but we've discussed two different formats:

1)All players, but with salary cap figures and a total salary cap
2)Rookie contracts only, no salary cap

So if you're interested, post here, and post whether you'd prefer 1 or 2, as well as any other rules you'd like to see. (Snake formatting, roster construction, etc.) And I guess we'll go with whatever has the most interest.

I'd prefer #1.

The format I tossed out there involved a snake draft, 20 man rosters, $65m cap with the following positions:

1 QB
1 RB
1 TE
3 WR
3 OL
1 offensive wildcard
2 Edge
1 DT
2 LBs
2 CB
1 S
2 defensive wildcard

Obviously just a suggestion & totally cool with any other format, & in regardless. Even if I just have to draft head to head against nath & get whooped.

either works. If you go cap based I'd just use Sportac.com's CAP HIT figure.

Yeah, that's why I planned to use for reference.

Antonio Brown makes $12,370,833 this year fwiw.

Not in as I don't really have the time but will rail and/or hold picks if needed for time zone reasons

So, uh, I guess I'll leave this open to try to find more owners, but if we can't find much more, we're gonna have to do a thing where we each own multiple teams, and likely there would be no trading.

Definitely true, but we can only wait so long if we're gonna try to get this done before the season starts.

No trades definitely adds another level to the draft strategy regardless. Also, the # of teams doesn't matter too much. We could always just lower the cap to make it more challenging if we want.

Down to own as many teams as necessary, though.

Well, not if we had like a $25m cap or something silly low, but down for whatever.

I mean, if we went $25m cap and 25 players, you might be able to afford one player who wasn't on a rookie deal. Probably even some of the rookie contracts would be too expensive.

Yah, I was just exaggerating to show that obviously our teams wouldn't have to be juggernauts, but it's better to have a wider range of options for team building, so I agree more teams would be better.

Bumping again to try to solicit a little more interest before the working week starts.
