.5 for WR, 1 for TE, and .5 for RB.

I dont like the idea of giving WR's more points. They are already more valuable than RB's in this league. I look at it this way, if a WR runs a reverse and gets rushing yards, those yards are calculated and awarded exactly the same as if he was a RB, right? So why shouldn't a running back catching a pass be awarded the same as a WR? I am okay with TE's getting more points because there just arent that many good TE's.

I agree with both of these statements, my other league just added PPR for RB's but just .25 and it doesn't really feel like it makes much difference and with more teams going with RBBC, overall RB value has gone down the last few years.

Agree with Isotoners..RB and WR should be equal when it comes to PPR. Doesn't really matter to me how many points it should be.

But I think that TE's should get the same amount too. Gives too much of an advantage to the Witten, Gonzalez, and Clark's of the world. If you have one of those 3, you already have an advantage to begin with..Their 8-9 receptions per game is 2x if not 3x more than most TE's get..If you double their PPR, then these 3 will be outscoring the majority of the teams' #1 and 2 WR's..Should Jason Witten be outscoring Andre Johnson and Randy Moss every week? He can hang with them from a points perspective already..

I don't think I'm saying this correctly...Regardless, that's my opinion..What ever the outcome, i'm cool with it.

yes, personally, i think ppr should be even across the board....I was just trying to tweak it so that the league would accept it!

I vote no. I have already built a team based around the rule set we have now. I don't mind change but that's a drastic change that affects everything in our league and changes the value for every player on everyone's roster in one way or another. If I knew there was a even a chance of us going to PPR for running backs.... Its a kick in the nuts. Larry Johnson's nuts.

dude larry johnson is pretty much done.and you have westbrook. it would on average just give the running back 1.5 extra pionts. it helps guys like reggie bush and westbrook who are more like recievers and dont get credit. But dont pick up many rushing yards.

I think it should be 1 .5 & .25 if you give them a .5 i think it gives to much weight to the RB position.
