    Completely forget about draft until 10 o'clock. Log in to see what's been auto-drafted. Adrian Peterson, Andre Johnson, Gronk. Result.

    Isn't autopick supposed to fill your starting team first?

    That's what I taught too. I'll just pick one up on the waiver/free agency today or tomorrow.

    It also gave me 2 Jets wide receivers! I may support the Jets but I didn't want any of their players!

    I'll take them off your hands. Send them to me.

    Not sure how I feel about last night, 16 man league means your bench is load of crap, so hear is praying for no injuries or substance-abuse bans

    well lads who's happy/unhappy after the draft? Not too displeased with mine tbh, think I got some good value in places but gave up too much in others.

    It descended into madness when someone started picking DEF in the 6th round...

    And kickers in the same.
    Happy enough I got Doug Martin, Demarco Murray, Eric Decker, Eli Manning and Sam Bradford to name a few.

    Are yards from Punt returns considered, I had quick look at league set up and they appear not to be included unless NFL.com included then just as offensive yards?

    You can't change your line-up once the player in questions has started their game. So Flacco is stuck on the bench, though you can change the rest of your line-up.

    I'm almost certain that they don't count.

    Watch game Thursday Night your comment could be a regular post as anyone comes up against Broncos, looked good. Great offensive last year & Welker great addition. Decker also will improve to be top WR

    Kinda getting the hang of this fantasy football lark but have questions.

    When can you change people? As in skins have yet to play and I have a wr on bench...I cant put him on my starters now no?

    If I drop or waiver a player how long is the gap before I can pick up a new player? (Same with transfers etc)

    Only if you have another WR who hasn't started. Once a player's game has begun they are locked in that position - be it starting or on the bench.

    All waivers are processed on (I think) Wed night/Thurs morning. After that you can add and drop to your heart's content immediately until the first game starts.

    Thought I was sitting pretty only needing 12 points from the Skins D and Bryant :(

    RG3 is killin' me here...

    Who would you start first?

    RG3 @ GB

    Flacco Vs CLE?

    RG3 is showing more projected points. .does anyome pay too much attention to projected points?

    Griffin was decent when he found a rhythm in the second half in fairness

    Projected points are sketchy to say the least. They're based off Madden simulations, there is no human input into them and they regularly have ludicrous figures. They're an alright guide if you really have no idea but if you have an opinion one way I wouldn't let it be swayed by the projected points.

    I'd probably start Flacco as I'd want to see RG3 start and play well in another game or two before I trust him, but its a close enough call.

    Start Flacco, GB pass rush looked great and so did defense against QB runs on Sunday and RG3 is still a bit rusty.

    Another question, at what stage qould you drop the likes of Gronk (NE) from team or he worth holding on to long term? I know he's due back...but ifyit rolls into week 4 and hes not starting etc.

    Unless you can pick up Julius Thomas on waivers (very unlikely) then there isn't much TE quality out there so you may as well hold on to him. If you need space I'd be dumping Marvin Jones off my bench long before dumping Gronk.
