I've never played before

But I'm in

Cool, welcome. This is a 5X5 Roto league. Meaning 5 hitting categories. (Runs, Home Runs, Runs Batted In, Stolen Bases, and Batting Average) and 5 pitching categories. (Wins, Strike outs, Saves, and WHIP= Walks and Hits per Inning Pitched, and Earned Run Average).

The object is to rack up the most in each category. Then you are ranked accordingly in the league, and score points based off of that.

example: In a 12 team league if your team has the most Home runs you get 12 points. If you have the least you get 1 point.

You do that for each category. It's a running total that builds up threw out the season. Who ever accumulates the most points at the end of the season wins.

The key to winning or at least being competitive is to make sure you have a well balanced team. You don't want to neglect any category during the draft.

You will notice once you start looking into it that certain players are better power hitters and hit more Home runs. While others are more speed players that get more stolen bases. you want a nice balance of both types of players.

Then from there you will just draft your players. Catcher, 1st base, second base, 3rd base and so on.

Hope that helped. I would recomend going to ESPN and check out there draft kit. It's free, and will give an idea of what I'm talking about.

sounds good. I'll check out the EspN site. Haven't even looked at rules, are we drafting a full team?

Positions are:

C, 1B, 2B, 3B SS, OF, OF, OF, Utility (you can stick any hitter in this spot)

SP(has to be a starting pitcher), SP, RP(relief pitcher, this is were you would play your closeres. There the ones who get you saves.), RP, P(any pitcher), P, P.

Then there are 11 bench spots. To give your team depth. This is were you would draft back ups to your hitters or load up on Pitchers like Nance did last year.

So, all together you will draft 27 players.

    • Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen. 
    • Totally agree with you, if we had invested in drafting a corner or two I wouldn’t even ponder adding Ramsey. But, to be honest we legit added nobody to our corner room this offseason we have nobody worth developing. Even if Chau Smith Wade is better then what I think, he is the only guy we have invested draft capital into outside of our starters.
    • Look at his snap counts, your telling me that his entire college and pro football career every coach he has had has misused him? No offense but I don’t think you understand the role of a slot corner. Mike Jackson is the literal definition of an outside zone corner, he would be totally inept as a slot corner. Ala why he has been an outside corner his entire career.
