Re: Madden 2010 Ratings

Thanks for sharing this! Actually I think the ratings are much lower than what they would be under the old system. Going along with what we have used to determine the grade here, there would only be 5 players that are given a B rating to start, and only about 33 that get a C+. From there, only the t...

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Talk

Interesting draft so far. My draft board has been quite off target, but that's why I have the NFL draft results play a 25% role in my final player rankings. Glad to see my Packers take Raji. Can't believe he fell that far - though I'm even more shocked that Crabtree fell to the 49ers at 10 (not real...

Re: Madden 2010 Ratings

First, some preliminary findings now that I've got an unscientific sample of about 170 players - taken from All-pros from 2008, 2007, and some from 2006, some 2008 pro-bowlers, and my AFFL Arizona roster: There are more A+ grades under this system (unless there are some players that are rated A+ and...

Re: Madden 2010 Ratings

So I've been thinking about how we could develop more of a system of our own for quite some time now, and I think I may have come up with an objective way of grading players. I've got a google spreadsheet published where I'm entering in different players so you can see how it compares to what their ...

Re: 10 Rules: Free Agency Changes

Can we discuss the possibility of doing long-term contracts like this for restricted free agents as well?

Re: Draft Day

For the record, I voted to start the day after the real draft (Sunday), but I really would be happy with that, Monday, or a week later. I do not want to do it early or start on Saturday.

Re: 09: Free Agency

Found an error. When I look at Kyle Orton on CFFL free agency page, it shows that Baltimore holds the highest contract. When I click on his name it changes to Dallas's figures from their AFFL bid (though it still shows my CFFL team at the top). Not sure if it is safe to place a bid or not... I don't...

Re: 09 Rules: Best Sim Results or Any Given Sim

I actually think there should be more upsets in these leagues. How many times in the real NFL have we seen the better team on paper lose? Think Giants-Patriots in Super Bowl, Packers-Falcons in Wild Card one year (first home playoff loss at Lambeau Field), Falcons-Vikings in the 98 or 99 NFC Champio...
