27. A 14-team league

is going to be great.

I'm in one other fantasy football league this season and we held our draft on Tuesday. There's only 10 teams and that leaves a lot of quality players as free agents. You're looking at your 8th, 9th and 10th round picks and thinking there's plenty of options on the waiver wire that are just as good, maybe better.

When we were facing the prospect of a 20-team league here at one point, I was worried about the opposite: it would be awfully slims pickings by the late rounds!

But with 14 teams we should have a happy medium where you will have to scrutinize hard to find decent options on the waiver wire, but they will exist.
