    Unless it was a crazy ppr why would you! but if its the boards leagues they have surprisingly devalued RBs from what I experienced last year. Did a draft a few years ago and the no.8 pick was a defence!

    sometimes you gotta shoot from the hip. never really go into drafts with a full list of who I want.... usually have a list of guys I don't want unless they fall significantly but who knows what you guys are going to do haha! kicker 101 you say! its a tie between wednesday and thursday at 9 by the way! @lloyd can you do the wednesday?

    Draft time set Wednesday 29th August 9pm (I hope, stupid American times on the settings page)

    Still 1 spot left for boards people.

    How long before the draft will we know the draft order? Would be nice to have an idea beforehand to get a few mock drafts in at the pick order.

    In my other league we used a random generator, stuck the names in and agreed that whatever came out would be the order so we had a few days notice in advance. Then we could do some mocks to get a feel for where we'd be.

    Had the proper draft yesterday. My rank was 11th, so obviously they don't know what they're talking about ;-)

    you mean you didn't get Zeke at that spot! what kind of crazy league are you in! I have him going pick 48 in my mocks! haha whatever people want, its just a bit more work and I am more concerned about getting spot 12 filled first.



    FYI if someone is doing a somewhat exotic league (superflex etc) and needs another person hit me up.

    And we are full! good to have everyone on board. I will post a list of users and team names when everyone has set their name etc, should be a lot of fun. We have our returning champ from last year Lloyd for those who weren't part of the league last year.

    HI Rogey,



    I think we are full, (barring a last minute withdrawal) I will keep you in mind though and hopefully there will be a league like this last year which was set up with 3 days to go before kick off.

    Who are your football teams?

    I'm a Dolphins fan for my sins...tough season ahead, might be going for that #1 Draft pick next year!

    Be hard pushed to draft any of them tonight

    Bills have that honour locked up they are just terrible this year! I am a Vikes fan, so been through the mill of roof collapses and staying up till 4 am to watch a team throw it away in the NFC champ game... 2 times now.... Cautiously optimistic about this year.... I have to say the GM has done everything to put the team in a winning position so hopefully it works out.

    Yeah they're defo in a good place. I like the Vikes. Strong looking everywhere. If Cousins links in well and Cook stays healthy it could be a big year!

    I'd back the Bills over us btw! Race to the bottom in that division. It's a killer having to deal with New England every year.

    The gas part is I think the Pats are going to be terrible this year.... but in such a ...well lests admit it... crap division they are going to the playoffs again. put them in most other divisions they are getting steamrolled! NFC north and NFC East are prob the strongest divisions this year.... well thats if the Eagles don't implode by tomorrow at this rate!

    Packers all the way, but I'd only draft a few possibilities from them tbh. RBs by committee, Adams at WR would be good and likely productive, and Graham possibly worth it at TE but hard to tell from the lack of Rogers QBing preseason games. I did pick up Crosby in the other league I have drafted for so far, he's my default kicker tbh!

    Hahahahaha! ah god! hope they go down quickly! just finishing my draft prep now.... still a fan of having printed lists.... only problem is I have to keep track of all the lists! Usually I have done more prep than this but the leagues were slow coming in this year.... even thinking about joining the Div 8 league even though I completely hate the format thats run!
