Kotrax is wrong, 3RR is not being evaluated on a year-to-year basis in the NFFC. This is the format going forward as part of our 14-team league format. Trust me, there will be a consensus No. 1 pick next year or a Top 3 consensus group and some folks will likely want to be part of that. If the back end succeeds this year to the level that the front end succeeded last year, then folks will have the chance to set their KDS preferences accordingly. And if No. 1 winds up being the least favored spot in 2008 or another year going forward, I don't see that as being any worse than where we were in 2004-06 when most folks didn't want the No. 14 pick.
As the facts have proven through two weeks, the first two rounds have played a big part in the back end picks succeeding over the early picks thus far, with WRs dominating the action. We've also seen that two defenses have played a big role in the Top 25 teams scoring well. It would be wise to let the season play out and then we'll have some great data on 3RR to dissect. But 3RR is here to stay in the NFFC and that news is coming from the person who makes those decisions. NO GREG I WAS NOT IMPLYING THAT 3RR IS NOT HERE TO STAY. I HOPE THAT WASN'T THE WAY YOU TOOK IT. HOWEVER I WAS SAYING AS PLAYERS BECOME MORE LEVEL IF THEY BECOME MORE LEVEL THEN THE PRACTICE OF 3RR COULD BE LOOKED AT IN A DIFFERENT LIGHT. I DID NOT MEAN TO SAY ANY FALSE INFORMATION TO THE LEAGUE.
