the scoring setting seem fine. Personally I like 25/10 for pass/rush & rec.

the only thing I see is you have 12 teams in your league with 20 roster spots. That is 240 players taken. This will leave very slim pickings on the waiver wire, but on the other hand should help increase trades in the league. If this is a keeper league I would keep the roster size the same so you could stash some future stars that could explode end of this year and next year too. If this is a redraft league I would consider cutting down the bench players by a few.

No concerns about fairness - with all owners playing with the same scoring, any settings you agree on should be fair - but I'd consider downgrading return yards slightly. As it is, you're looking at a Michael Lewis as your top WR, which some folks will disagree strongly with.

Should be a challenge with such a deep bench! ;-D

I think people want me to add more roster spots.

Yahoo lets me add up to 5 more spots.

right now there are 10 bench spots already though.

do want to include return yards to make things more interesting though, but to make it more balanced.

example 30 return yards =1

20 receiving yards=1

I would make return yards about 50 per point.

My league is set to
50 yds passing per point
25 yds recv per point
15 yds rush per point
