    Or possibly 10? :o Working until half 9. If any objections then fair enough, totally understandable given the length of these things sometimes.

    10 works for me.

    Guys I can't pick Thursday, it's greyed out on NFL.com and I have no idea why.

    It's looking like Wednesday @ 8pm now.

    I'll see if one of the guys can push back to 10 but don't hold me to that.

    Guys, draft for this is in 1 hour 15 mins.

    A friend of a friend has asked to join, and since I can only add in increments of two, there is one space available if anybody wants to take it. Please let me know asap. If it's not taken by 7:20, I'll be adding a CPU controlled team to make sure the draft goes ahead.

    Cheers.

    Edit: Sober Paddy has taken the spot. Good stuff, good luck everyone. I'll have a unimpressive trophy for the winner. Unimpressive, but a trophy nonetheless :)

    Good stuff :D

    By the way, as we're 2 teams down this year, I've added an extra bench spot for each team, so it's now 6 subs.

    Hopefully it works :D Going to be that guy who sneaks away to make my pick. People will think I have bladder problems or something.

    Happy enough with the draft. Interested in trades though, have RBs and TE Davis up for grabs in multiway trades where I get a WR1 and TE/RB for a WR and TE/RB if anybody is interested.

    Happy enough with mine. Not overly thrilled with my RBs, only really 1 verified starter but at least Smith will start the first couple of weeks. Hoping himself, Blount or Tate will establish themselves as starter for one reason or another during the year. Picking 13th out of 14.

    QB Eli Manning (6)
    QB Ryan Tannehill (14)

    RB Matt Forte (2)
    RB Ben Tate (7)
    RB Kevin Smith (8)
    RB LeGarrette Blount (9)

    WR Jordy Nelson (3)
    WR Marques Colston (4)
    WR Torrey Smith (5)
    WR Nate Washington (10)
    WR Vincent Brown (11)

    TE Rob Gronkowski (1)
    TE Jared Cook (12)

    K Matt Prater (13)

    DEF Minnesota Vikings (15)

    Was picking 12th, a few times during that draft a player was nabbed just before me but such is FF life

    QBs - Cam Newton (1st), Josh Freeman (9th)
    RBs - Darren McFadden (2nd), Ahmad Bradshaw (4th), Jonathan Stewart (7th), Ryan Williams (11th)
    WRs - Victor Cruz (3rd), Steve Johnson (5th), Lance Moore (8th), Titus Young (10th), Davone Bess (12th), Kevin Walter (15th)
    TEs - Antonio Gates (6th)
    PK - Mason Crosby (14th)
    DEF - Bills (13th)

    RBs are injury prone so hopefully nothing will happen them but overall im happy with what i got

    Happy enough with the depth of my team given I kept changing my mind every time I was picking. A lot of gambles made on guys staying fit/teams performing. Biggest mistake was drafting 6 guys in a row who are all on bye weeks on week 7. Picked at 11th.

    QB - P. Manning (3); Luck (8).

    RB - Charles (2), Bush (4), Vereen (11).

    WR - Julio Jones (1), Decker (5), M. Floyd (7), Amendola (9), Collie (10), Cobb (12).

    TE - Witten (6), Olsen (13).

    K - Succop (14).

    Def - Washington Redskins (15).

    Possibly might look into this for Davis!

    Happy enough with how mine went, 3 years ago my 2 starting RB's would have been impossible to have side by side in the fantasy world.... Massive gamble this year though! :/

    QB's - Roethlisberger(6) - Cassel (12)

    RB's - CJ2K (1) - AP(2) - Willis McGahee (5) - Ingram (8) - Thomas(10)

    WR's - B Marshall (3) - D.Bowe(4) - Holmes (7) - Manningham (9) - Doug Bladwin ( 11)

    TE - Jermaine Gresham (15)

    Def - Patriots (13)

    Kicker     - Ryan Lindell (14)

    Disappointed with my effort. I didn't have time to participate in any of the mocks and it showed, panicked on about 75% of my picks:

    QB: Tom Brady (1), Christian Ponder (11)

    RB: Ryan Matthews (2), Michael Turner (3), CJ Spiller (8), Cedric Benson (9)

    WR: Reggie Wayne (5), Michael Floyd (6), Denarius Moore (7), Kendall Wright (10), Josh Cribbs (15)

    TE: Aaron Hernandez (4), Kyle Rudolph (13)

    DEF: Eagles (12)

    K: Robbie Gould (14)

    Been travelling the last few weeks and didn't think the draft would be this early so didn't even set up my preferences. Got Vick, Finley, Welker, Nicks and Ray Rice which is nice I guess.
