essendoubleop, I see your point about rewarding a Defense for stopping the other team from scoring, but if that's your major way for the Defense to score points on fantasy, then just bumping that reward a point or 2 doesn't add up. For example, a Defense that limits the other team to 3 field goals (9 points) or just a single TD + PAT (7 points) would be considered a sparkling defensive performance, yet that is only good for 5, only ONE point higher than Yahoo's default. AND that's 2 points LESS than an interception that gets runback for a TD. Is a single "right place right time" play worth more than an entire game of keeping the other team out of the end zone?
I'm not necessarily saying that Yahoo's defaults are any better, but it is the system I have (most have) been playing under for several seasons. If you feel the need to change so many of the defaults, that's fine, but I'm not seeing the logic behind the values you have changed them to.
And I still cannot figure out why there is no kicker in the league... If points are being scored in a game, they need to be able to be claimed by a fantasy owner. It's that simple. If something like carrying the ball for 30 yards is worth 3 points, then something like a (potentially) game-winning field goal should be worth something too.
