Anybody Else Play In A FFL Where You Have To Start 2 QB's Each Week?

Just about every FFL website and magazine is based on a system where you only start 1 QB each week, which way undervalues QB's compared to a league where you have to start 2. We have a 12-team league and have to start 2 QB's each week, so it changes things a lot. Just wondering if anybody else is in a similar league and how that setup impacts your draft strategy. I'm mulling a lot of options right now (like going QB-QB-WR-WR with my first 4 picks and then getting a bunch of RBBC guys and hoping a couple of them pan out). Our league is really competitive and I'm trying to consider some "outside the box" ideas to see if I can come up with something that might work.We start 2 RB's, 3 WR's and 1 TE (no kicker). We do individual defensive players too, which I think is awesome. It adds more dimensions to strategy options. I drafted Demeco Ryans as my sleeper pick at LB last year and he ended up being the highest scoring defensive player in the league. Unfortunately, I also had McNabb and Mark Brunell (without a Jason Campbell handcuff), so that didn't work out so well.

Just my .02 cents. I have played in some leagues like this (in fact, there was one where we started THREE QB's! LOL). How many RB's start? Someone like Tom Brady/J.P Losman should work fine, and allow you to fill your other spots.

• i agree.
• get a solid defense like miami or dallas late and a solid kicker like stephen gostkowski or anyone.no, i dont see a point in starting 2 qb's in nfl ball qb is number 1 and in fantasy he isn't.
• do this (rb,rb,qb,wr,wr,wr,qb,rb,def,wr,k)try to get up and coming qb's to get this years phillip rivers (i.e matt leinart, jay cutler, j.p losman, etc) and get solid rb's in first two rounds like rudi johnson and shaun alexander and then get a marshawn lynch or a willis mcgahee or jamal lewis as a late steal.

• Yes I do (13 team league).
• You still have to get two RB's in the first two rounds.
• Then probably next would be two QB's, or one QB and one WR.
• Just make sure your QB's have different bye weeks and try to get three, because after the draft you will be stuck with them do to the rest being taken.
• If you need to trade for a QB in this type of league, they are worth as much if not more than RB's, so get on them early, and don't be afraid to get extra to use as trade bait.

• Yes, I am also in a 12 team league where we start 2 QB's.
• I don't like the settings much and the commish already traded away one of his QB for a RB and now he only has 1 QB.
• If I was the commish, I wouldn't set it up like that...
• Good Luck
