Experts is a pretty hefty statement maybe I'm over-rating us... lol. If you can have a board of 20-25 players but still put in the time to land the great ones then yeah I'm sure that it will be fine. But for the few players in my league that have a lot of players on their board and like to spread their time around... They're really not landing anybody that useful. Just my observation. One of the very next points that I make (I just gave Ryno the entire article wasn't anticipating a staged release) is to know the "market" in your league. If you can spread the time out and still land impact players then by all means. Just don't try that in my league
Thanks man I hope the King is primed for an awesome season.
yeah there are gonna be some more installments but if you get a few minutes, PM me and tell me how you typically approach recruiting each player... Like what do you do the initial week; how do you schedule your visits... etc. I think there's good info coming but you guys can be the judge.
LOL I feel ya. Believe me there are some of us still into the game and we came up with the idea of partnering for some strategy articles somewhat recently.
lawl yep
There's a pretty good thread
HERE that talks about some ratings in the game and which ones are more important, I especially thought the posts by Wisey were useful (starting at the end of the 2nd page).
Basically my feeling on it is that speed isn't the only thing that matters but at the same time I do look for speed at most positions with my team. I don't want a running back with A speed and horrible everything else.
I do see a difference with a good line compared to a bad one, mostly with sacks. (have I bought into the placebo effect I don't know...) For instance I've played 10 games in this current season and given up 14 sacks all year, there are seasons where I've given up 40 before.
The toughest defenses in my league aren't necessarily the fastest, they're the ones that are the best put together all around with a combination of speed, strength in the right places, Size in the right spots, just good all around players WITH speed rather than JUST speed...
We all see different things though.
