Haven't scored a defensive point since putting up 3.0 in the semis of last year's playoffs. In the 4 weeks since, I'm at -3, -14, -8, -12. Really hoping I can just ride the waiver wire and not need to trade for something better -- I'm a little jealous of one of my opponents who had 2 DST on their roster with 20+ points scored this week.

My first two weeks my defenses were -8 each week, for a total -16, finally I got a few points this week from a defense.

I think maybe the strategy is to try and pick up whoever is playing the jets for the week.

If anyone has tried to contact me on slack and I haven’t responded I apologize. My phone took a dump and I had to get a new one. Got it back a couple hours ago but lost the slack info. Will hopefully be up soon

[GolfSpy_BNG]

I put this on slack as well but @Rwagn4and I have a trade agreement for AJ Brown for Tee Higgins and Chubba. We are doing Chubba for AJ now and Tee Higgins for another player on Tuesday since the bengals have already played.

We're on the board!

Offset a bit by my kicker going out with a warmup injury, but still have a chance at a 2-0 week (or could go the other way).

So, in the interest of transparency, I have made a change to defensive scoring that does not effect any current matchup, nor any previously decided contest based on something brought to our attention yesterday in Slack by @blackngold_blood.

Apparently our imaginations were limited as to how poor offenses could play in the modern NFL and we did not account for teams having negative yards allowed on defense at any point. Now to be clear, a team finishing with negative yards has happened all of twice in league history, the Broncos in 1967 and the Seahawks in 1976 with -5 and -7 yards respectfully.

However, as this does affect live scoring as you won't be certain as to how many points your team has a certain point as the defensive yard scoring kicks in at 0, not a negative number. Therefore, we are adding another scoring range for yardage, Allowing anywhere from -100 to -1 yard will net you 10 points. Again, this will change nothing as far as results, it's just a change to impact live scoring to help you see where you are at and will likely never be an issue in the modern NFL

Clearly in response to the phenomenal Bills defense . Whoever owns them, good choice.

Haha I was just messing around. You didn’t have to change anything. Just thought it was more funny than anything.

No, we know, but in the commissioners chat we discussed it, realized we hadn't accounted for it, and as bad as some of the offensive performances have been this year, figured we might as well put a safe guard in place for it. I'm not expecting it to happen at all, because if it didn't happen in that Bears game, I don't see it happening, but it's there now just incase.

Really, it's added as a category more because we couldn't lower the range of the current highest rewarding yardage to a negative number because that screws up Fantrax something fierce, apparently values have to be both positive or both negative, not one of each.

For those pondering some moves over the next week. I'm going to have Hock on the block as well as Lockett and any and all bench players that I'm rostering. Including AJ Brown and Jeudy. Not looking for another TE, but rather another RB or WR. Feel free to send some offers!

[xOldBenKenobiX]

Sorry my friends for the lack of participation here as of late, I have been under the weather, as well as with some family commitments on the weekend and have had very little time to respond to some messages here.
I will revise the trade offers that still up and make some counter offers later today.

I hope everyone is doing well.

Also

Hey @Pscott19 and @pjgiaquinto I’m super impressed with your respective starts this year considering your roster makeups. Just want to remind you, and everyone else that may not be there, we get 5 bench spots so you each could add 4 more players to fill out your rosters if you want.

Just sent you an offer if you're interested.

I noticed that my transaction picking up the Rams defense and dropping the Colts defense went through last night.

But Rams don't appear on my roster. I'm assuming that is because they played last night. I'm also assuming they will appear on my roster next Tuesday?

I see that the players Cam swapped on waivers last night have not moved to his roster either.
