What unique scoring settings do you have in your league?

Going into our 21st draft, and trying to spice it up. We've been doing auction/faab for awhile now, and went to 2 QBs last year. 10 team league in Yahoo. What are some non-standard position/scoring settings that you couldn't imagine playing without?

I dislike leagues without Superflex (2 QB's) and without multiple flex positions.

After being in a dynasty league with Superflex, 3 WR slots and multiple flex positions, I'm not a fan of the basic league positional settings.

I also dislike having D/ST and kickers which I haven't done in quite some time.

We have super flex (2qbs) and 1.5 ppr for te’s. PPR for all other positions.

This is an odd one...

During the draft, you pick players to accommodate 1 of 3 possible formations and you have to use that formation all year.

The three formations are (to go along with 1 QB, 1 DEF, 1 PK):
Pro set: 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE
Run-and-shoot: 1 RB, 4 WR
Wishbone: 3 RB, 2 TE

The rosters are set to 1 RB and 4 FLEX to make it work. The honor system is used to make sure owners stay with their formation all year. We've never had an issue with it.

During the draft, you can sometimes figure out which formation a team will be playing if you see them loading up at WR or not taking a WR at all. If someone takes Kelce in the 1st, then you can cross run-and-shoot of the list for them.

It also makes the draft interesting when you've got different formation strategies picking against each other.

We do an optional blind auction 1 round rookie draft before the NFL draft.

After the combine you bid $ from the $200 auction budget on draft spots 1-12. Depending on the draft class, bids might look something like this

1. $25 2. $15 3. $10 4. $5 6. $2 ……

Commissioner will compare all bids and the highest bidder for the first pick will win the top pick and so on and so forth. You can only win 1 pick.

So you have a rookie prior to the draft and get to see where they land on draft night.

Hybrid setup (H2H + T6B6)

One league is a 10 team Superflex league with 0.5 point per completion. This league also gives out bonuses to players that do things that are typically the opposite of what their positions do, i.e., RB catches a pass, WR rushes for TD. These things automatically double the TD pts (RB get’s 12 pts for receiving TD for example).

We also gives the QB’s even more value by giving bonuses to them for length of TD. A TD over 19 yards is a 6 pt bonus. So a 25 yard TD is a 12 pt TD as opposed to the traditional 4-6). A bomb, anything over 49 yards is a 12 pts bonus.

A QB can legit have a 75 pt game if he throws for 30 completions, 3-4TD’s, 300+ yards, and one of the TD’s is a 50+ yard bomb.

It’s also an auction league and it’s a blast. There’s points everywhere, basically a gang bang of points every single wee

Geno Smith was a pivotal piece of the winning team in this league last year. Finding QB value is a must.

6 point qb passing tds.

All FGs 3 points.

Passing yards 30 yards per point with 2 point bonus at 300 which gives you 12 or the same as 2 tds.

Same with RB and WR 1 per 10 yards and 2 point bonus at 100.

1 point per 25 return yards.


.25 ppr

Which sites support this kind of scoring?

I had to do it manually via a spreadsheet for years, but ESPN started supporting it last year (Bonus Win setting). I'm pretty sure Sleeper does too but not 100%

I'm in a 2qb league and we do half pt per completion and bonus points based on qb yardage.

The best QBs put up monster points so the draft strategy is significantly different than a 1qb league.

Sleeper allows game against median (T6B6), playoffs are only H2H.

Combine kicker and def into one position. So if you draft Baltimore, you get Tucker. Let me know how that works out.
