Boards Division 1 Thread

Anyone else get a message from eagle eye threatening being booted for "inactivity"?

I respect a league manager doing their job (I manage another league myself and participate in another 3 on top of that). But the counter of log ins doesn't work if you log in from multiple IP addresses.

Clearly hitting a first round bye and ranked #2 through the regular season doesn't happen by not logging in.

Not one week have I had a player in my starting lineup that was inactive or on a bye, and I'm not going to have someone boot me after working all season to get to this point.

For what is worth I know Niall1811 and we talk fantasy all the time. We are in another league together and we talk about the Boards leagues all the time. No way he was inactive.

That last log in crap NFL.com have is often wrong and as he said doesn't always register logins we have tested this in one of our other leagues. I use VPNs with multiple IPs and it shows my last login as October in our NFL.com league.

But we should only be threatening to boot if they are not changing their teams and have inactives every week. We shouldn't be solely depending on the last login on the website and here especially this time of year.

Good work all.

I'm away for a week or so, but we will organise a draft day soonest. Can I ask everyone to make sure that the email linked to their NFL account works, as most messages will be put through the site. I'll post the odd message here.

kev_s88

Thanks for taking on the roll Johnny

Pretty sure I pm'd you back. I'm in anyway!

Johnny_Fontane

Ok lads, poll for Draft is up. I sent you an email through nfl.com

https://doodle.com/poll/mtgexicywqrqttb6

Good range of times there for people to choose.

adrian522

Just realised I'm away with work that week so probably missing the draft. Looking forward to a team of kickers and defenses.

Same here. No point filling in the poll but I will try my best to make it to whatever time it is at.

Johnny_Fontane

Lads,

I'll close the poll at 8pm tonight.

Thanks.

Johnny_Fontane

Draft set for 9pm on Tuesday 4th September.

Thanks Johnny. Need to make sure the league settings are updated for the flex before the draft

Johnny_Fontane

Settings all updated (for Flex) and randomly drew draft order (Swords Sharks was emailed results) - using draftordergenerator.com.

Remarkably I got 16 and he got 15! I'll update its on NFL now.



The match ups will be set later this week

jester1980

thanks for organizing, I can confirm the draft order above is accurate.

Hope the other leagues know draft order needs to be done before draft.

Delighted we have flex this year though

eagle eye

Ha, we'll see how much you like flex in a 16 team league at the end of the season.

Johnny_Fontane

Draft on at 9pm tonight!

DM1292

Any Room left in this?

Draft order doesnt look right

not sure what happened but I definitely set the draft order last week. It obviously randomized before the draft.

Spongey1975

Yep i was 8th in the prior generated order and the system randomised me to........8th:eek:

Johnny_Fontane

Schedule updated, so we should have 6 divisional games each.

kev_s88

I missed the first 6 rounds of the draft also pre-draft order had me picking 2nd, ended up picking 9th.


Gonna be a long season....

Johnny_Fontane

same thing happened in the premier league above us. Its an nfl.com problem, their servers crashed on sunday, apparently people couldnt even draft then. Think thats why the draft order settings disappeared.

At least we got drafting at all then.

Are people happy with their drafts? I'm delighted with my receivers but my RBs are awful. Grabbed a few absolute punts

eagle eye

Yeah I'm happy, I have three starting RB's and a backup who might be a starter of at least has a very good timeshare.



My receivers are a bit of a concern as Alshon Jeffrey will miss the first two weeks and Edelman the first four but once those are back I'm expecting big things. I took a chance at TE because I feel that Charles Clay is going to have his best year due to the poor level of QB with the Bills, I can see a lot of short passes to big targets.



I have Wentz at QB who will miss a game or two also but I've got Goff too so I'm in good shape.



DST is very good with both the Jags and Patriots.

adrian522

Happy with my draft though it could all go to Sh!t very quickly. I was drafting from the pub so all things considered it went ok. I had the 3rd overall pcik

RB David Johnson/Alfred Morris/Jeremy Hill/Latavius Murray - Feeling a little exposed here, relying on Johnson to put up some points this year or I'll be in trouble.
WR - Emanual Sanders/Stefon Diggs/Danny Amendola/Josh Doctson/John Ross/Sammy Watkins - Happy with this group, some solid starters (I hope) and some potential breakout candidates.
QB - Cam, probably went for QB too early and with no backup I figure I'll be scouring the waiver wire once is inevitable injury hits.
TE - Kelce - Good TE, but with no backup I'll be hoping he stays healthy.
Def Saints - Happy enough with this.
K - Vinateri - Whatever.

From your summary it could be a tough start for you ha.

You're feeling exposed here? I have Dion Lewis and Frank Gore starting. Then I am taking punts on a few RBs that might carve out a role in Doug Martin, Gillislee, Ronald Jones (desperate!) and Sony Michel.

I am pretty stacked at WR though with OBJ, Landry and Keenan Allen.

Delighted to get Jordan Reed so late in the draft. He is an injury risk but he will no doubt get big numbers when he does play.

Mahomes as QB, not sure about him. Could put up big numbers in an Andy Reid offense.

Yeah, first two weeks will be tough as I only have one WR but then I get Jeffrey back which is good and then things get really good two weeks later when I get Edelman.
