Draft for league with passing, rushing, receiving bonuses
Posted on 7/24/14 at 4:23 pm
Posted on 7/24/14 at 4:23 pm
I am in a league that has standard PPR scoring, but adds a 10 pt bonus for 350 yds. passing and a 10 pt bonus for 150 yds rushing/receiving. This is the first time I play in a league with bonuses. I need help with a draft strategy for this league. Is there a good site to go to find a cheat sheet that includes these bonuses or is there a particular strategy for drafting in such a league?

Those are incredibly ridiculous bonuses. As for strategy? Draft studs.

We do 3 point bonuses for 300 passing, 100 rushing & receiving.

Those are reasonable. But 10pts is just retarded. I wouldn't play in a league like that.

Doing a little research on this and came up with a few interesting stats. Last season, there were 51 350 yd passing performances (P. Manning-8, Brees-6, Stafford-5, Roethlisberger-5, Rivers-4, Brady-4). There were 31 150 yd rushing/receiving performances (McCoy-4, Megatron-3, AJ Green-3, D. Jax-3). Something else of interest, AP, Charles, D. Thomas, Dez, J. Graham and Marshall combined only had 8 150 yd rushing/receiving performances. That's the same number as Manning's 350 yd passing games. With these stats, would I be wrong to assume that a cheat sheet should be Manning, Brees, McCoy, Megatron and have AJ Green in 1st round. This would also move up Stafford pretty high if I couldn't get Manning or Brees.

350 passing is more attainable in my opinion. You'd reap the bonus benefits more going with a QB. It would be hard for me to pass on Brees if he's there.

Quarterbacks that throw for high yardage get a bump, obviously. We have a similar system with QB's. We start 2 QB's -
-1 pt for every 20 yards
-5 bonus pts for passing over 300 yards
-Point Per Completion
-6 pt for 0-9 yard passing TD, 9 pt for 10-39 yard TD, 12 pt for 40+ yard TD
-12 pt for 0-9 yard rushing TD, 18 pt for 10-39 yard TD, 24 pt for 40+ yard TD
-(-3) Int
Brees averaged over 70 pts last year.
And before all of you knock it with "that's retarded shite brah", shut up. It's absolutely awesome. Points are flying all over the place. Imagine watching Brees throw for 375 yards and 35 completions, 4 td's and all are bombs. It's a very fun league and it's going on it's 18th season.

Why not? The bonus could be 100 pts if the rest of the scoring system translated, and it wouldnt matter. Everyone is playing under the same rules. Do you not agree that a QB that has thrown for 387 yards, 3 Td's, 36 completions had a better day than a QB that threw for 252 yards, 4 Td's, and 25 completions? The first Qb had a better day in real life, yet the second Qb will score more in a traditional scoring system, which I dont agree with.

Bonuses suck
Posted on 7/25/14 at 8:11 am to dnm3305
What about when two quarterbacks throw the same amount of TDs, but one throws for 349 yards while the other throws for 350? Damn near identical stat lines, but one gets 10 points more than the other. That's what's retarded.

In our system it wouldnt matter because 300 yards is the threshold, but in your scenario it would be 299 yds vs 300 yds for getting the bonus. Our bonus is only 5 pts. That's sports for you man. Do you look at a .299 career hitter and a .300 career hitter the same, because most wont. Eveyrone is playing by the same rules so yes, the guy that threw for one more yard deserves the 5 pt bonus because the rules say he does. It could very well be the opposite scenario a wk later and come back to bite you in the arse but that is part of the fun.
I cant recall ever having seen this scenario but it's still not that drastic of a difference in fantasy pts-
QB A - 29 competions, 3 (10-39 yard) TD's, 310 yards
QB B - 29 completions, 3 (10-39 yard) TD's, 299 yards
QB A - 76 fantasy pts
QB B - 70 fantasy pts

We do 5 point bonus for 300 yards passing, 5 point bonus for 100 yards rushing and receiving. I like it much better b/c it sucks when you have a stud rb that piles on tons of yards but then they sub him out for a goal line rb.

So how does this look for a cheat sheet for the standard PPR league with the 10 pt bonus (# of bonuse from last season in (): Brees (6), P. Manning (8), McCoy (4), Megatron (3), Charles (2), Peterson (2), Forte (0), J. Graham (1), Foster (injured--3 previous season), AJ Green (3), D. Thomas (1), M. Ball (0--Moreno had 1), D. Bryant (1), Murray (2), Lacy (0), Lynch (1), L. Bell (0), Julio Jones (injured--2 previous year), A. Brown (2), Jeffery (2), Bernard (0), Nelson (1), Marshall (0), D. Martin (injured--2 previous year), A. Rodgers (0), Stacy (0), Ellington (0), V. Jax (2), R. Bush (0), Cobb (0), Stafford (5), J. Thomas (0), Morris (0), Garcon (0), Fitzgerald (0), K. Allen (0), Vereen (0), Gronk (0), Spiller (0), A. Johnson (2), D. Jax (3), Crabtree (0). Keep in mind that Forte, Lacy, Marshall and Rodgers (along with a ton of others) did not get any bonuses last year on this scoring system. That's amazing Stafford (and even Roethlisberger) had 5 and Rodgers had 0. Is Stafford really worth more than Rodgers in a scoring system like this?

Someone sounds bitter
Anyway 3 point bonuses are the best. It gives you something to cheer for when you hit that milestone. This argument is almost as bad as should kickers be considered fantasy players.
