If you were starting a new 8 team league, what roster settings do you think would work best?

I'm thinking either half or full PPR. 2QB, 2WR, 2FLEX, TE, DST, and K.

Debating going 3WR instead of 2 but not sure if thats too much with 2FLEX spots already.

Sorry for bumping a 2 week old thread but because this community is still growing I thought I’d give input on the 8 team league that I’m in.

Our roster settings are 1 QB, 1 RB (5 roster limit), 2 WR, 2 FLEX, 1 TE, 1 DST, 1 K. Standard.

We don’t play for money, just for a traveling trophy and bragging rights. Teams are pretty stacked but it’s not totally insane. Standard scoring balances things out where you don’t have guys that are solely viable starters because of receptions.

I wouldn’t recommend PPR scoring for an 8 team league unless you did something like 3 WR, 2 FLEX and a superflex. It just inflated the scores too much and adds to many viable weekly starters for a small league
