Dynasty Commissioners: I need advice
I am new to Dynasty. It's my first time being the commissioner of a dynasty league and playing in one. There is one person in our league who is in another league, and after his advice and some online reading, we landed on the initial settings. We completed our startup draft, and now that I am looking at rosters, I am seeing some things that could pose some challenges.
I am looking for advice on whether I need to address any of these things before the season starts.
12 team halfppr
1QB
2RB
2WR
1TE
2FLX
10 Bench
4 IR
5 Taxi (Rookies and Sophomores)
3 supplemental rookie draft rounds in the offseason
I am seeing now that the shallower bench may create a problem where people may have to drop usable players just to elevate people from the taxi squad. I realize this will occur regardless of bench size, but our bench size feels small, and there remains some usable talent on waivers. The guy in our league who plays in another dynasty league thinks our bench size is fine, but we just need to allow people to move people on and off the taxi throughout the season, which I think defeats the purpose of the taxi. Additionally, this could lead to people going to the waiver wire instead of sparking trade activity.
My questions:
- Do we need to adjust roster sizes?
- If so, to what number?
- What other thoughts?
If we do, I like the idea of doing a single open waiver using our FAAB budget, then resetting FAAB going into the year.
Thank you!
