  • Free Auction Fantasy Football League

    I am starting a free auction fantasy football league and am looking for some people to join

    here are the rules below

    Everyone has $200 to spend on the players
    You can bid on any player at anytime (your total outstanding bids can't exceed $200)
    You can not take back a bid (once you post it, it says until someone else outbids you, only exception is if a player is injured in a preseason game [in which case you have until the following Wednesday (12pm) to remove your bid])
    The auction goes until everyone is happy or until one week before football season starts. (Aug 31st) (will detail this later)
    A player will sign if an owner's bid remains the highest for 5 days
    You can not cut a signed player during the auction so don't bid on players you don't want
    expection: you can cut a player if he is injuried during the preseason (same time limit as above)
    You don’t want to spend all of the money (same some for free agents)

    Free Agents (all undrafted players become free agents after the draft)

    Every week there is an auction for the free agents, highest bidder claims the player
    (auction ends Friday at noon [you claim a player if no one bids on him after you for 2 days][Ends Wednesday at noon if there is a Thursday game])

    Everyone is given $1 per week (so you can always claim at least one player per week)

    You can release a player at any time and reclaim half of his unused salary (AKA: If you spent $50 on him and he is injured in week one you get 15/16 * (.5) * 50 of the money back. This means you at least get something if you are screwed by injuries / bum performances.

    Trades
    You can trade players for money and/or other players
    All trades must be posted on the board by Thursday (Tuesday if there is a Thursday game)
    If they look unfair it can be overturned by a 50% league vote
    you can not loan a player out

    There are the following spots on each lineup:
    1 QB
    2 RBs
    3 WRs
    1 TE
    1 Def/ST
    1 PK
    6 Bench Spots
    (so a total of 15 places)

    scoring is as follows:
    4 Pts per passing TD
    1 Pt per 25 passing yard
    -2 Pts per interception
    6 Pts receiving/rushing TD
    1 Pt per 10 yards rushing
    1 Pt per 10 yards receiving
    .5 Pts per reception
    2 Pts for 2-Point Conversions
    -2 Pts for Fumbles Lost

    Field Goals
    0-19 Yards (3)
    20-29 Yards (3)
    30-39 Yards (3)
    40-49 Yards (4)
    50+ Yards (5)
    Point After Attempt Made (1)

    Defense / Special Teams

    Sack (1)
    Interception (2)
    Fumble Recovery (2)
    Touchdown (6)
    Safety (2)
    Block Kick (2)

    Points Allowed
    0 points (10)
    1-6 points (7)
    7-13 points (4)
    14-20 points (1)
    21-27 points (0)
    28-34 points (-1)
    35+ points (-4)

    I will be using Yahoo for the football league once the draft is done

    ps: either post here of send me a message if you are interested

        Is he a supporter of Fantasy Us Weekly?

        the concept is beyond ridiculous and awesome...

          You going with Britney or Lohan for your overall #1?

            well its hard, with only a $200 auction limit, i think i could get a few sleepers in there like a gwen stefani on the cheap and force up a ridiculous bid for a perenial power like lohan or britney.

            points would be given based on cover picture (10 pts) cover inset (3pts) and 1 pt for every picture there in. minus 1pt for fashion disaster page though.

            bill simmons, i love you.

              I thought I was the first person to have this idea, but from googling for "Fantasy US Weekly" I discovered that Bill Simmons of ESPN did in fact come up with it first.

              I think in a serpentine draft, Angelina Jolie would probably be a great first rounder right now for a redraft league. If it were a keeper league, I'd look more towards the younger ones. Lohan's value in a keeper league is through the roof.

                this is why i think a weekly auction league works better though. it forces more hard decisions and crazy sleeper picks like denise richard.
