    Alright lads!

    Anyone up for joining a new redraft league? Bit late notice, but be great if we could get 10+ teams in!

    Open to starting requirement ideas but would suggest:

    QB / RB / RB / WR / WR/ TE / FLX / FLX / 6 BENCH

    Would be drafting on Thursday evening/night. Looking for active members preferably, hopefully get some craic and trades flying through the season!

    I'll go another league sure :)

    I'd suggest flex is WR / RB / TE if you're going double flex

    Agreed. I was going to go RB/WR for one and RB/WR/TE for the other...?

    I'd say both tbh*. Could lead to more interesting situations. I don't think anyone will ever be right to have three TEs rostered and starting, but you never know! :pac:

    *That said, comfortable either way - up to your good self. Thanks for organising.

    Good stuff lads! We're up to 5 now. Would really like to get atleast 10 if possible. And we're going to have to draft on Thursday, starting sometime between 7pm and 10pm I guess. We can do a quick show of hands to decide the time!

    Hmmm I wasn't going to bother to be honest... feels like people are force feeding us PPR everywhere we turn haha.

    But if the majority wanted PPR, then I guess we could do 0.5 PPR

    Standard is fine by me, but PPR okay too.

    Problem....

    Doesn't look like you can draft on a gameday on NFL.com :/ Anyone any ideas?

    And Yahoo lets you draft, but doesn't let scoring commence until the following week :/

    Offline draft. Can set up the league and we figure some way of inputting a draft via chatroom or something tomorrow evening. You can then manually enter the teams.

    Wouldn't be able to get an offline draft completed before tomorrows game though...

    Does espn work? If it's std I'll pass. Never liked it tbh and all I ever seem to find are std leagues, why I joined the ppr league here on boards

    Let's go 0.5 PPR and call it a deal haha?

    Registered Users Posts: 691 ✭✭✭gerryfed


    Yeah, drafting tomorrow night at 9pm on ESPN (can change if needed)

    10-12 team depending on responses.

    QB - RB - RB - WR - WR - RB/WR - TE - RB/WR/TE - 6 BENCH

    0.5 PPR, 4 Points for passing TD, -2 for an interception, 6 points for a rushing/receiving TD

    13 Gameweek season, top 6 go into winners bracket. #1 and #2 seeds get a bye in first round etc

    Any other suggestions?

    6 confirmed so far, and I've sent PMs requesting email addresses from another 4-5 too.

    I'd like to get it to 12 teams, but will settle for 10 if needs be!

    Are we all OK with 6 bench spots by the way? Or should I make it 7? Just thinking out loud...

    7 people have either signed up or just need to accept the league invite.

    Looking for 3-5 more if anyone else is interested? Or if you guys know anybody? I have sent an email to 2-3 others too who expressed interest either here or on other boards pages.

    Cheers

    We could rock with 8 bodies. Would be a very rich league player wise, but still fun :)

    Hopefully we get 10 min all the same
