as stated elsewhere, while the ambition and excitement is awesome, we need to get all 20 teams in place before we can vote, so voting should definitely be extended a week beyond when we have our full roster of managers.

We currently have 13 starting slots:
6 individual offensive players (IOP)
1 PK
6 IDP

Two issues:
1). We would need to vote to increase the starting slots to 14.

2). Do we really want to unbalance this with another IDP without addressing the number of offensive positions?

I vote NO unless there is a similar move for the offense.

I am with Judy and vote NO. if we add a defense slot we should also add an offense slot and probably even a bench slot. assuming the league will go down to 20 teams.

I am not excited with too many flex slots and would add these options to the lists to vote for:
- 2 DL/2 LB/2 DB/1 IDP (+1 DL)
- 1 QB/1 RB/2 WR/1 TE/2 Flex (+1 WR)
- 1 QB/2 RB/2 WR/1 TE/1 Flex (+1 RB, +1 WR, -1 Flex)
- 1 QB/1 RB/1 WR/1 TE/3 Flex (+1 Flex), maybe only temporary for 2021

Strong disagree with thoughts above. If we’re contracting to 20 that addresses a concern that offensive waivers were too limited (4 less offensive rosters to fill). Defensive waivers were not a problem, so this keeps them at similar level as before. Also a mild increase in value for D by having more relative depth than O, which seems less drastic than some IDP scoring proposals to achieve a similar end.

Yes.

Reminder.

When we dropped DST we added an IDP flex spot to keep the offense and defense at 6 apiece with the PK as the outlier …

Not all the dropped teams have offensive studly types either…certainly not enough to satisfy 20 teams…

We did add a flex when we dropped DST, but offensive positions are clearly much more valuable than defensive ones based on our scoring (as I think they should be)... it's about the relative value/importance of positions and O vs D, I don't think it was ever about keeping the "number of positions" arbitrarily equal.
