Making players more relevant that shouldn't be relevant, i.e. Theo Riddick and Danny Woodhead who compile empty stats, doesn't make it fun IMO. It further reduces the importance of the draft which I think makes it less









quote:

Riddick forced 36 missed tackles on 80 receptions last year as he finished 2015 with a 99.9 receiving grade, the highest we’ve ever seen from a running back in the NFL in our 10 years of grading. Riddick was tremendous last year, and should once again see a big role in the Lions’ passing offense in 2016.

How does it make the draft less important when these guys are all drafted? I'm a big believer that the draft should be the most important part of the season too, but PPR doesn't affect that. What affects it is any league smaller than 12 teams. In a 8 or 10 team league you can blow the draft and still field a solid team because there will be enough players on waivers left over after the draft is over to make a competitive team just off of waivers guys.

And to think Riddick (<1 yards @ catch) and Allen Robinson (15.3 yards @ catch) both got credited the same amount of points for each catch they made. Yay PPR...
