    Standard leagues yes. Non-standard leagues where TD passes are worth 6 points no.
    I would normally up vote that. But when you compare the #1 QB Newton, with #9 Palmer and #10 Eli, why draft Newton early when you get nearly the same point production 4 rounds later?

    Newton's probably not the #1 QB in a 6 point TD pass league. Those leagues suck, though.

    Disagree. 6-point TD pass leagues coupled with PPR spread the value around the portions vice a standard or even PPR league.

    PPR sucks. 6 point TD pass leagues suck. Putting them together is suck abundance.

    I don't mind PPR leagues as long as they are within reason. For instance: 1 point per reception is rediculous, but say you get .25 points per reception I'm ok with it.

    But I get your point DNC. PPR leagues were created years ago to offset the dominance of running backs in fantasy leagues. It used to be that the first 20 picks in a draft could all be running backs. With the introduction of PPR leagues, it gave receivers and tight ends a little more value, and had an incentive for you to pick a WR earlier in the draft. Unfortunately, because of the evolution of the game, the PPR format if skewed incorrectly can have the opposite effect and make WRs much more valuable than running backs.

    In the end, it just depends on how the league is set up.

    Agree partial PPR can be worthwhile. Full PPR is FS.

    Totally. I'm surprised leagues still actually do that. But I was in a league where the commissioner gave 1 point for every 10 return yards. It basically made full time kick off returners more valuable than starting receivers. He changed it after I said something, but still...go figure.

    It's amazing how completely clueless some FFL commissioners can be.

    If you are in a 10 team must start 2 QBs league, if you don't take a QB in the 1st 2 rounds you're FS
