    I have a question regarding our league. What position do linebackers play in, on our rosters? Is it in the DL positions? Or is it only in the extra D positions?

    That was what I meant.
    Either one works. A LB is considered DL by position, but since any defender can play D, they work there, too.

    Next year I'm considering cutting down the number of Individual defenders to shorten the draft and appeal to some of the folks who don't care for the IDPs. maybe 1 D, DL, DB. Still, Football is played by 22 players and I think what we have is pretty fun. I've been in leagues where all you had was IDPs. So I miss not having Jimmy C in the league, but save for draft length, no one else has registered a complaint.

    Heck, if everyone wanted, I'd whittle the IDPs down for this year. But better speak quick! :smilewinkgrin:

    I'll miss being in the league as well. the other leagues I'm in only have an overall team defense. Personally I'm all about the O - kills me in your league:)

    It was mainly a time issue for me - good luck to all

    yeah, just 3...my goal was only 1; but then i saw the BB posting and then i got an invitation for a 3rd one.
    The reason was this was a horrible year for me on fantasy baseball which has all but gone to pot for me due to having a lot more on my plate than i expected. I thought summers were "breaks"?

    I am assuming IDP means "Individual Defensive Players".

    That's fine with me.

    Well, I can always make a change before draft time. At the most I'd just take away two slots. That would take us down to about 19-20 rounds instead of 23 where we are now. We just have to pick fast tomorrow!

    Next year, we'll look at making the change. Good luck and see you all in four hours.
