The only trouble I have found with too deep a bench, is that some people "hoarde" players, making it harder for people doing badly to push the people doing well. Like I mention in my other league this year we have a bench of 2, It means there have to be bigger risks taken on keeping named players and field them on a bye week and risk losing one game, or keeping rotating players on a more marginal level and have a more consistent score. Just keen to see how that works.
For us:
I have changed the bench back to 5 positions, and dropped the RB to 2 but have 3 Flex (two in all positions and one that is either WR/TE).
I do like the idea that more marginal players can make a difference,
Need to really find out who is in from last time, or if we have new interest.
from the first post here we have 8 people wanting to do it and 10 in the old league.
Now is the time to kick/add players before the draft.

Thanks. I guess you could argue that if teams are hoarding players than in fact marginal players can make all the difference anyway says they need to be found.
Should add of everyone else only wants 4 on the bench I'm happy to go along with it.

agree with moving back to 2 RB and increasing Bench - It gives more flexibility and also means you can take a punt on a big upside player without it killing your season.
Parcelona = Andyparksy
Murican Pride = One of my1, he is also in this year.

This was the list from last year.
2014 Want in

So from the quote, these are old players who have not shown interest this year.
The 2014 list need to PM me an email address to get them added to the NFL site.
(Some please feel free to check I have not missed anyone)
I know you have set up the Doodle, but can we just throw out who can make either Tuesday 26th or Wed 27th at around 8.......... Think giving people too much options might slow it down.
The draft by mail might work if we can't get a time but think it's more fun to do a live one and the mail one might just take too long anyway. Will involve 150 mails after each other.
I can do both!
Thanks for K.I.S.S!
Oh, and the_gavnor was in last year - caught red hernandez
