Draft rankings that mean absolutely nothing...

Well, the draft was...eventful.  Not surprisingly, Joe fucked up almost immediately, bidding close to $50 for Dallas Clark.  We laughed at Joe.  Joe laughed at Joe.  A few players later, Dekker bid $83 for Deangelo Williams.  We laughed and joked about it; Dekker was not laughing.  After some fervent chat banter, a couple angry texts, and a clusterfuckful pausing of the draft room...we worked it out.  For those of you that didn't know exactly what happened, I made the decision to have Joe and Dekker keep the players, and charge them a bit over their pre-draft value ($10 over Clark's 19; $15 over Williams's 47).  I thought it was fair; maybe you disagree.  But what's done is done.  I thought the alternative (redrafting all the players drafted since Dallas Clark) would have caused a longer delay.

Anyway, after the jump, here are my rankings of the teams immediately after the draft based entirely on your top 4 draftees (by price)...

Auction draft...new settings..etc.

So, we're going to be dealing with some new features in uber this year.  I'll try to explain some of them below.


Roster:
Originally, we were getting rid of defense...but people overwhelmingly want to keep D and get rid of K.  So, that's what I did.  We will have 14 total roster spots you will be drafting for on Sunday.
1 QB
2 RB
2 WR
1 WR/TE
1 TE
1 OP (offensive player utility)
1 Def/ST
5 bench players (plus we are having one IR spot that you can use week to week).

Welcome back to Uberleague.

Gentlemen, welcome back to Uber (now on ESPN).  I'm going to try and use the blog more than I did last year, and hopefully just imbed the blog into the espn site so we don't have to worry about two different sites.  Anyway, here's a picture of Whiteford covered with man goo to get you in the uber mood.
