sportingnews has their own format where you select a team and have a certain amount of trades every week and everyone is allowed to own who ever they want as long as they can fir in the salary cap. starting cap is 50mill for 10 players and at the start of the season people are priced based on last years performance and after the season starts their value goes up/down based on how many people buy or sell them that day..

In the league we're doing each player can only be owned by one team, and there are no salaries. We have an online draft to determine who goes where, and all undrafted players become free agrents whom you could decide to pick up if you dropped someone on your team. You can also trade with other teams, including 2 for 1 swaps or whatever you want.
We're using 9 statistical categories. If you are the best in a category, you earn 12 points (assuming 12 teams), 2nd best 11 points, and so on. At the end of the year the team with the most points wins.
I've played both and I think roto is more fun than salary cap because in salary cap the winning teams will have the same players too often and then you have less to root for (and also less pride in your GENIUS picks).
