How do drop/adds work??

Ive given up on my WC as he is on the bench.

I officially want Troy Williams, but won't be at a laptop till tomorrow at like 9pm.

So if an undrafted player has no stats so far and can pick him up and drop anyone? I have someone I'd like to add if this is true.

We didn't make any rules on adds/drops. Basically, you get 3 per year. If you add a WC, you must drop one. I don't think there was anything else...

I know initially we debated the sub rule, but it's almost impossible to enforce it as it's subjective. So yes, players can be added 3 times per year, with that player not eligible to be picked back up.

Within 5% ppg of the guy you are dropping.


Obviously not an issue if the guy has 0 games played.

I guess I didn't even think of that considering both of the adds were guys who haven't played. I guess that's a loophole, but it is what it is.

And if that 5% rule isn't in place let me know, because I will make a move immediately.

So if a player is on your team and gets injured, you can drop him and add a player that is within 5% of the injured players fantasy points per game?

Am I understanding this correctly? We can't just go sign the player that's averaging the most FPPG right? Or whomever we'd like...

Correct.. It's pretty much the player you are adding can only be averaging 5% more than the player you are droping. You can add anyone who is averaging less than the player you are dropping (As long as it's not a third WC).

That's because Ohio State doesn't know how to utilize talent. Anthony Lee with a whopping 16 points total. I can't believe I had Bryce Jejean Jones at the top of my list for 6 rounds and didn't take him.

Yeah I'm pretty sure that is what everyone else has done. Lucky you have another center on your bench to replace him so you can look for any position.

Also with all the bitching Laley did about his WC it's not even as bad as yours lol. Laley's is getting 12 FPPG yours is only getting 9... that is awful.

Anthony Lee was never going to play that much. Matta wasn't very impressed with him this summer. He's getting about as much PT as I expected.

Yeah nephawe is so bad. What a horrible pick

I'm trying to find players who haven't played yet because anyone else isn't even worth the add.

Those fucking Houston guys all get waivers because their program went from promising 2 years ago to dog shit now.

That team would have Joseph Young, Tashawn Thomas and Danuel House.

I can't get fucking imgur or photobucket to load tonight for whatever reason, but my calculations currently have me at 791.5 total fantasy points for an average of 27.3 per game (after dividing by 29 games played). Note that I have been using Anthony Brown and Kellen Dunham since Sunday as I dropped Winston Shepard and Nic Moore from my team.

While my team sucks overall, Big Game Frank Kaminsky put up 52 fantasy points the other night on 20 points, 15 rebounds and 7 blocks. The guy is a god playing amongst children.
