    Keep in mind we only have sixty seconds to pick this year though (thank God, nothing worse than sitting there as someone used the full allocation for every pick, or better yet seemed to stop paying attention at all!)

    That's actually a point that should probably be hammered home - if you're done drafting and want to just let the robots take it from there, make sure to fully leave the draft, don't just minimise it. If you're not connected, you autopick in <5 seconds, if you are still connected it waits the whole time to do it, which is ****ty for anyone who's still picking.

    I thought as soon as you auto pick/time out once, it sets you to 'away' and continues to 5 second auto draft until you untick 'away'?

    Best of luck lads, don't forget there's a flex position now instead of 3 WRs.

    I'd probably have been better off autodrafting. Got a bit flustered whenever my next pick got taken just before I was up.

    Just got the "Who Won Your Draft" mail from NFL.com

    They're projecting me to got 5-8, highlight though was this:

    "Chancers may know something no one else does, grabbing James Conner, who is on a squad in less than 10% of all NFL.com leagues (1%)."

    I think they need to update their mail templates, the secret is out!

    Projected to go 3-10. Which sounds about right.

    I'm going to win with 64 points!

    I lost Mariota, Greg Olsen and Fournette to injuries. Very bad start

    Very quiet in here. Getting into the business end of the season and the top 3 teams are 8-3, 2 games ahead of the chasing pack of 6 team (plus another 2 on 5-6 who could have a shot).

    My own team is one of the 6 at 6-5 despite having scored the most points.... that's fantasy football I guess.

    We've only had a single trade all season but there doesn't appear to be a deadline so maybe there's time for more before it's all over.

    I was so pissed off the other week when I picked up the Charger D to replace the Vikes on a bye and then forgot to put them in, and therefore lost...my own doing but it destroyed my motivation entirely Stupid to let it slide though. Definitely the quietest year I've ever had in this game

    Been setting my lineup ever week , few head banging decisions on my behalf but its been decent.

    Fantasy for me is the craic had with the trades and the sh1t talk. The boards leagues are really devoid of that though

    good day on waivers for me, got all 3 I put in for.

    Gus Edwards could be good down the stretch (as long as Lamar Jackson is QB)
    Cameron Brate might be an improvement at TE with Howard done for season. TE has been a disaster of a position this year.
    Stephen Gostkowksi will hopefully be a decent kicker for rest of season


    Taking a chance that Edwards can be useful in case of injuries I've now got a couple of RBs to spare so putting out some trade requests to try strengthen WR a little.

    Ugh, hate when that happens. Looks like you were also the most scored against, which is no real surprise.

    Elsewhere in the league, holy crap that Division 1 upset

    Harsh.

    Just copped that the Championship this year is the 5th seed vs 6th seed. Fantasy is wack.
