The first leagues ID is 88884 and the password is "tapology" all lower case.  @Soccer will post the second leagues signup information when he sets the league up.  I believe changes can be made to scoring up until the draft (1st league Mon. 8/27 @9pm EST).  This scoring setup is my favorite as it allows for numerous ways to build a successful team.  The PPR and 6 point passing TD's help balance the scoring across all positions. 

After each league ends in Week 16, the winners and runners-up in each league will face off here on Tapology for the overall championship and the points that @Gregory will hopefully be so graciously providing again this year.

Here is my team from our mock draft:

1. Ray Rice (Bal - RB)
2. Vernon Davis (SF - TE)
3. Torrey Smith (Bal - WR)
4. DeSean Jackson (Phi - WR)
5. Marques Colston (NO - WR)
6. Baltimore (Bal - DEF)
7. Joe Flacco (Bal - QB)
8. Cedric Benson (Cin - RB)
9. Matt Schaub (Hou - QB)
10. Laurent Robinson (Jac - WR)
11. Mario Manningham (SF - WR)
12. Ed *****on (Bal - TE)
13. Kellen Winslow (Sea - TE)
14. Joseph Addai (NE - RB)
15. Billy Cundiff (Bal - K)


No such thing as to much Bal.






Also I'm aware Cundiff missed that kick.

Don't know if this has been stated, but c_arnoud's name was misspelled in the league 1 names. Just letting you know for future reference.

Just curious. Anyone think Brees is worth taking this year? The guy was basically stripped of his team.

He is absolutely worth taking... for the right "price".

Brees is more worth taking this year than any year before. Not only is he coming off his amazing record breaking season but the Saints have key members of their defense suspended. Weaker defense means there's a better chance of the opposing team's offense taking a lead and winning and everyone knows that you don't run the ball when you're playing come-from-behind football. 

That's my theory.

I'd take Brees with my 1st pick......if he plays this year.

i always felt people pick brees to early, so i never ended up with him.

cant say if i would pick him, gonna start reading and watching football stuff after the end of the semestre.
he did have a ton of yards last year tough, right?
my top QBs for now:
Rodgers
Brady
Brees
Eli

Rogers is everyone's number one QB I would imagine.

Eli? Eli is good, but no where near what the great guys in the division do. River's would be a solid QB for a later round pick if he wasn't so on and off.

Was it ever decided on the scoring for a PTD?  Is it 6pts or 4pts?

@C_Arnoud He didn't have a ton of yards...he freaking broke the record for most passing yards in a season. I say pick him up if he's available at the end of the first/beginning of the second round.

My order of Fantasy QBs in a PPR league:
1. Aaron Rodgers
2. Tom Brady
3. Drew Brees
4. Cam Newton (would be 2nd if it was standard scoring)
5. Philip Rivers (Last year was just a bad year IMO)

@WishIsHere Rivers had a fluke year IMO, I think he's gonna do well this season (even without his safety blanket V-Jax).

My top 5 QB list would be a little different

1. A. Rodgers
2. D. Brees
3. T. Brady
4. M. Stafford
5. C. Newton/M. Vick too close to call there.
