"Holy Homers" - I like it . Unfortunately, especially when it comes to roster sets, trial and error is the only way to go. Raising homers in league totals will lower them in your actual game (it changes the ratings spread), but there isn't any "best set" of league totals because the ratings are all subjective and it's a dynamic mix between the two.

Anytime anybody sets up a league, I ALWAYS recommend running some trial seasons. Also, most imported rosters are balanced for 10-round drafts. If you do any more or any less, this will have an impact on your leagues overall ratings in the future (more rounds = more talented players = fewer scrubs = higher average ratings, and the opposite for fewer rounds).

In the end, just go with what feels/looks good to you. The Elias Sports Bureau, Bill James, and Sabermetric gurus aren't about to come banging n your door with a "cease and desist" letter
