MBBRL Vampire League

[Bandit]

Dolphins are going to beat the Redskins in week 6

They are trending up (actually played a solid first half) Redskins trending down.

Haskins is absolutely vital to my 2 year rebuild plan.

He is talented enough that the Redskins will hopefully pass on drafting Tua and instead trade down.

Then, when he gets his chance to start, we will he had enough that we will secure the #1 pick again and draft Trevor Lawrence.

And the icing on the cake?

Gruden is a dead man walking and there is absolutely no chance Bruce Allen can survive all this.

Right?

All I can say is that your plan is probably much better than their plan.

Well, shit. Looks like our vampire team may be getting a little stronger next week. I may not be able to start a QB (Brees and Trubs) and my TE is flaky at best (Burton).

That sucks. Unfortunately attrition was bound to happen especially during bye weeks. This is when they are at a huge advantage since bye weeks really mean absolutely nothing to the vampires.

Hoping my strategy pays off. No vampire byes for me.

Dont hold your breath

Cmon man.

I can start rooting for the Redskins to win again once Allen is finally gone.

I am convinced the Redskins have no plan.

They just take it 1 day at a time and respond to whatever happens.

Ok, have a rule technicality question for you @Bandit

Are vampires allowed to use IR spots for inactive players like Davante Adams?

I am guessing no, but I wanted to check

No, IR spots are only for players on IR regardless of whether it's vampire or not. You should of vampired an active player. LOL.

Yeah, but I didn’t want any of the active players.

LOL.

I’d like to fire the league scheduler. My score is going to be respectable again and I got nothing to show for it lol

I’m gonna get obliterated by my opponent

I have had a couple close calls, but missed a a golden opportunity this week.

Got too cute with Tate and Dorsett.

At least you got one

Damn Harold, 242.2 points with a zero from Mike Evans. That is impressive my friend.

 

[Trudem]

I love the concept but I think the setting need to be tweaked a little. The gap is just too big to be a legitimate threat

 

[Trudem]

also this is some bullshit lol

Wow that sure is

Agreed.

Things would be totally different if Odell Beckham didn’t have his only big game of the season in week 2, but the deficit of drafting 16 players is just too much.

That said, I don’t love the “suicide” aspect for the non-vamps.

Here is what I think should happen:

Make it a 12 round draft, all starters plus 3 bench spots- all starting spots must be filled- then vamps draft. After vamps draft, teams can fill out the remaining roster spots for depth.

During the season, non-vamp teams CAN make moves, but they are not allowed to use waivers. Vampires get exclusive rights to that.

That’s probably more balanced.

I know it’s random and no way around it, having the most points against is brutal in this format lol.

I think one of the things that's hurting is using the two vampires. It would be completely different if there was only one of you and you didn't have to fight the other guy for the best available free agents each week. I think that's making a way bigger difference than the roster size because that's the only thing we did differently than other vampire leagues. I don't like the idea of allowing non-vampire teams unlimited free agent transactions either. I might be willing to say that they could have one per week, but if they can overhaul their rosters, why not just do a standard league. The whole point of the league is to see if a team made up entirely of non-drafted and free agent players can compete against the guys that were drafted. I really think it's the two vampire thing that we should change next year. The winner of this league becomes the only vampire next year unless a vampire wins and then the runner up becomes the vampire.
