2013 Huddle IDP league

[C47]

Hey guys I want to do a fantasy league that uses individual defensive players instead of team defenses.  This thread is for anyone who is interested to sign up ( I think we should cap it at 12 or 14 teams), as well as throw some ideas around for scoring as I'm fairly new to IDP leagues.  I'll manage the thing, and the Draft would be sometime around the last week of the preseason to avoid any exhibition or TC injuries to star players.  Let me know if you're interested, first come first serve...

 

Members as of 8/9/13 (we're capping it at 12)

I would be interested, never done a league that included defensive players on a individual level. If explained how pts are acquired through defensive stats I'm down

Found this scoring on NFL.com seems easy and fair enough although we can make changes if anyone wanted to.  I like the number of IDP starting each week at four though.

I was planning on creating a league with individual offensive and defensive players.

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

I'm down. 

[Ken]

Sounds good to me. sign me up.

[C47]

K so we have 6 in the league so far.  I'll put the number of teams up to a vote....do you guys want to cap it at 12 or 14 teams?  I'm good with either....

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

12 gets my vote but it really doesn't matter either way to me.

[PntherPryd]

I'm in.

 

 

In my experience IDP rosters have a lot more luck involved than standard rosters so I don't like to do more than one team per season with that format.  But they are fun and you can find some gems for late pick ups based on matchups.

At least five more spots available, possibly seven...
