I vote against, if the pre-draft rankings are based on 4 pts. If I I'm outvoted, then I declare it's time for a European time zone draft. That's only fair after all these years. I mean, NFL has games in London.
The issue last year was mostly the later rounds. I did two drafts back to back. One was a 10 team with 90 seconds that was done in a tidy single hr. Then our 12 team 150second draft picks took almost twice as long. I can't remember if Autopick took the full time or not. I also don't remember if someone closes a window but doesn't enable autopick if it will take the full time. Then, there was also at least one jackass that was taking the full time every pick because he knew a few of us were on a time crunch. I'm with you on not understanding the 6pts for a passing TD. The standard 4 has been that way for so long, and QB's are already, on average across the positions for starters, the highest scoring players. It is extremely rare for a position player to score a touchdown in every game. The record for most TD's in a season is 31, in a ridiculous season by Tomlinson. He also holds the most consecutive games with a TD at 18. For comparison, Ryan Fitzpatrick threw for 31 passing TD's last season while the leading players in all-purpose touchdowns were at 14. The record is 55 by Peyton while Brees has the record for most consecutive games at 54 (streak ended by the Falcons btw). That's a pretty big discrepancy, and the reason passing TD's are 4pts standard vs 6 for position players.
This is what's up. Let's just put the 6pt for passing TDs thing to bed. It will alter way more than you guys think. Drafting will be all jacked up.
Every league I have ever been in has used 6 points for QB TDs. Almost every ranking system shows an option for it, it's not rare.
In a regular league, yeah 4 pts make sense, but in a PPR league where receptions are valued so much the QB is an afterthought. Having the QB worth 6 points makes them sort of more valuable. But in terms of priority...rolling waivers is the #1 thing I would like to be changed
I thought the whole point of going PPR was to increase the number of potential valuable position players away from a couple elite top ones. The top scorer last season was still a QB. These were the point totals from our PPR scoring last season. I'm all for parity (kinda, except I'm with you on rolling waivers. I think we've both been championing that for a few seasons now), but I don't think the QB position needs more help.
