Dcat Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 For the first 14 years of their existence, my 3 leagues were traditional (offense, w/team defense). We added IDPs (start 2 LB, 2 DB, 1 DL) 7 years ago and we love it. However.... as in any decades-long leagues, sometimes you need to replace a GM. It was so damned easy when we just played offense. Would have a replacement quickly. But the minute you use the term IDP, potential GMs run for the freaking hills. What are they scared of? Even when I tell them that there is always ample free agents for these 5 slots.... I see panic in their eyes. Christ, it's not that hard. I have 2 openings in my three 12-team keeper leagues. Competitive, long lasting (21 years) leagues. We use RTSports. They have solid keepers (in fact I'd like to swap my own team for one of them). I never realized that playing IDPs makes recruiting so ridiculously difficult. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millworkguy Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 I dont mind idp leagues I really dislike the variety in scoring . I play in both dl/lb/db and dt/de/lb/cb/s. I also prefer balancing scoring so that you DL gets more points per tackle then lb's etc etc. I started playing in leagues with 2 pt tackles and 1 pt assists (and maybe even one that was 1 pt.and .5 pts). I find.with the variety- your right- it can be harder but I've also found less turnover in my idp leagues than my straight offensive league's.

millworkguy Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 1 other thing to note, idc how good your league sounds, I don't play on multiple sites anymore. If it's not where I have all my other leagues, I'm not joining 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keggerz Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 If you are on Twitter tweet your opening and include @MyFantasyLeague and they will RT it. That should help fill an opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
