Like 12 team league with 1 qb (6pts per score) 1 RB 1 Wr 1 TE 3 flex Wr/RB 1 kicker 3 Defensive players.

I've read up on how to draft, but not sure about the 6pt thing per score, does that increase the "value" of the QB into the top3 rounds or do you still draft them later?

Any other thoughts specific to this league... 10 player bench.

That's really high for QB touchdowns. It makes Payton Manning probably the first pick. Get your RB's early though. Since ONLY TD count be aware of that because it's scores and not yardage that matter. Three D players and K last. Can never have enough RBs so overload with the bench if you can. If you aren't taking Graham or Gronk, you can wait on TE too.

When you draft, do you just sit there with lists of FF points from last season top 50 lists of RB, QB, Wr, etc...?

What do you base your SOS on? Last season, ESPN rankings, etc...?

They do it on last year's performance. I know things change with retirements, free agency, draft, but it is pretty accurate. Like as an example a 25th ranked against the pass defense isn't going to crack the top half in one year usually.

I don't disagree with any of that and I do check the opponents, but the player and their situation is the key for me.
