I've been looking at it for about 5 minutes and I still can't figure out how to join. I've been playing on the NFL.com site for a few years so I already have an account and I'm on the Boards Division 8 page, but I can't find an option to join the league anywhere?

Hit the Fantasy '14 tab and look for the Received a Fantasy Football Invite link under the Create/Join/Activate League buttons on the right hand side.

Click the link and then enter the league number and password Spongey sent on in the PM.

It took me about 5-10 mins to figure out when I clicked the PM link so you're not alone.

Cheers for that, seems a bit more awkward than it needs to be.

I'm in now anyway: password is taco

wardie101

I am away the whole weekend so outside the weekend best for me

jme2010

Ok lads, I think all of us listed here are being moved to div 4.

I'll be setting up a poll for picking a date / time to draft. As most people are busy over weekends etc I was proposing 8/9/10pm of either Sun 31st Aug, Mon 1st Sep and Tue 2nd Sep as time/dates.

When I get a full list of players I'll send invites to the legue and poll.
Can I get the Div 8 GM to comment here too?

Thanks.

raze_them_all_

cant monday the first, the birds bday

AbusesToilets

I'm in as Foxy Fellows. As to the draft time, anytime that would be after 2pm in Arizona is fine with me.

Spongey1975

League is full now. I emailed out the link for the poll last week and 8 people have voted. Link is below if the other 8 want to vote. Will leave it open until the weekend. Please use your boards name so we can see who voted

Draft is on Monday 1st September at 10pm irish time

Good luck everyone

peterdk

Having issues with the NFL website. Can't access My Team to do a pre-draft order. Anybody have any ideas?

Cheers

jme2010

Try using the app. Or maybe a different browser Crome/FF/IE

I had another one on ESPN that started at 9 and finished the same time as that one.

Half wrecked from both!

LightningBlue

Well that draft went on forever...
Very happy with my team overall.
Picking from 2 so was very lucky with my random draft position.

QB:
Griffin III
Palmer

RB:
Charles
Rice
Hill
Cunningham

WR:
Cobb
Sanders
Williams
Hunter
John Brown

TE:
Gronkowski

DST:
Patriots

K:
Vinateiri

raze_them_all_

had an ok draft nothing major happy to get luck and lacey though

SSK

Happy enough really, although it'll be a boom or bust year I reckon with a lot of potential upside players but a lot of risk with injuries etc. as well.

Rivers

Ellington
Bell
Ingram
Ivory

D. Thomas
M. Floyd (Cards)
Maclin
Dobson
Stills
M. Williams (Bills)

Rudolph

Autopicked Cards K and Browns D

Apart from my own team I quite like the look of the Dublin Dragons and the Hellfires.

helimachoptor

Could someone tell me who I got? Hellfires is my team, will be the weekend before I can get on

SSK

Picking fourth I think. Bloody impressive autodraft IMO, RB2 the only area of weakness really.

M. Ryan

K. Davis
M. Forte
K. Robinson
D. Williams

A. Brown
A. Hawkins
G. Jennings
A. Johnson
K. Wright

V. Davis
C. Fleener

S. Gostkowski

Rams

wardie101

Not too bad a draft but the 16 team draft was ridiculously loooong...Have Stafford and Megatron so live or die by Detroit lol

helimachoptor

In all my drafts that I've missed I seemed to have picked up Kendall wright, cheers ssk

helimachoptor

decent first win for me mainly thanks to Matt Ryan!

helimachoptor

left 22 points on the bench with the Chiefs back up RB

Not something you can really legislate for, Charles doesn't get injured and Davis scores 5 points tops.

A pity about Ingram's injury, I was going to put a few trades out there given I have 4 serviceable RBs but can't really afford to now.

At least I should get my first win on the board assuming Wayne and Parkey don't beat Maclin's score by 38 points.

AbusesToilets

Low scoring week so far, Megatron and Thomas fairly subdued

raze_them_all_

don't know whats going on but NFL fantay is saying I have no teams now

jme2010

What a perfectly managed week for me. Just 7.42 points on my bench.

Horrible wknd for fantasy production. McCoy has been something of a bust so far, watching him get stuffed repeatedly at or behind the gainline,

he wont do a lot untill we get a few o-linemen back id say

AbusesToilets

yea, was a pretty crazy situation for the eagles at the end there.

AbusesToilets

Ahhhh, Decker goes out of the game and it's 3-0

AbusesToilets

Have a couple of trade offers out to 50 Shadys of green and Ratoath Renegades

AbusesToilets

My gloom at the Pats getting destroyed tonight was lifted slightly by the ultra jammy .03 pt win this week.
