12 team, Half PPR. 4pt Passing TDs. 1pt/25 return yds.

My Team:
QB - Foles, Cousins
WR - Brown, Watkins, DJax, R Randle, Wayne
RB - Jamaal, Foster, Tate, Forsett
TE - Gronk, Walker


His Team:
QB - Luck, Wilson
WR - Julio, Wallace, Floyd, Wheaton, Cooper
RB - Spiller, Asiata, Rainey
TE - Kelce, O Daniels

I originally offered Foles + Forsett or Tate for Luck.

He countered with Forsett for Wilson or Foster for Luck.

Any thoughts? QB is the weak spot on my roster for sure. Anyone buying Wilson right now? Is the price tag right? What about the Foster trade?

I would not give up Foster. Is Wilson really an upgrade over Foles? How many points per wk is he avg more than Foles?

I wouldn't. I don't think either is a good trade for you. Stick with Foles.

Wilson is averaging 24.4 and Foles is averaging 16.1. Wilson is the #3 QB in avg scoring in my league behind Luck and Peyton.

Ok, I didnt know it was that wide of a gap. How in the hell is Wilson no.3 overall? Our leagues have vastly different scoring systems, but he isnt even top 10 in our league. Trading your no.4 back for a pretty decent upgrade isnt that bad of a deal, especially if the waiver wire is kind to you with Mason/Brown this wk.

List your top 10 QBs by points per game.

I traded Luck

I got steve smith and le'veon bell

we're a 6pt TD pass league though so luck is a beast...I offered him tate or lacy, he took tate, but I was stacked at RB and would have to release someone anyway.

essentially, I'm telling you for Luck, I wanted Bell and Smith (

I'd rather send forsett for Wilson, but if you want luck, you have to give him foster

How is that? The QB's that complete the most passes, throw for the most yards, and throw for the most TD's score the most. It's the most accurate representation of how scoring actually breaks down in real life.

Point per completion?

How do y'all handle passing yards?

How do y'all handle rushing yards and rushing TDs?

Yes.

Point for every 25 yards. 5 pt bonus for 300 yds

No rushing yds for qb's, but rushing td's are 12 pts. (double a passing td)

Also, not it's not. If you want the "most accurate representation of how scoring actually breaks down in real life," play in a TD only league.

You shouldn't freak out about where players are ranked when you play different settings than the vast majority of fantasy leagues.

You play with weird scoring setting.

Take Wilson. The extra rushing yards are paying big dividends... a trend that should continue.

Well then that holds true for every position right. Guess no ppr? Guess no bonus for 100 yd games? "Scoring" wasnt the correct terminology I suppose. It's the most accurate representation on how good of a statistical day a QB had.
