NFL Fantasy

Still only six in L3 - invites have been sent to the last two - @onthebeatpete and a mate of @rippinandtearin - but they haven't accepted. will need to make a call pretty soon to get drafts done by season kick-off...

PM rippen he may have got mixed up with the clickydraft. Let him know that he needs to sign up to ESPN as they are the fantasy site and Clickydraft was just an idea to do an offline draft (which looks too late now)

rippin is in. it was just a mate of his that might have been interested. for the record, i would have been happy with an offline draft - and we still have 8 days until kick-off - but at the moment, concentrating on trying to fill the league...

Yeah all good once we get the league filled we can push hard for a draft solution.

So L2's 7am ET is 9pm after the game Saturday yes?

Sorry for asking lads, just reading emails on my phone and then this chat and it's fucking with my head

Thats my understanding Mearcats. If you download the app it has it as local time.

Ah sick, so it does! 930pm. Cheers you legend @Krump

Liverpool bulldog has pulled out of L2 does anyone know of anyone who can jump in?

Had to amend draft settings to auto generate draft order 1 hour before draft begins for L1 and L2, So L3 might need to check that is the same for them

unless there is a way we can decide draft order manually before then?

Ill step up, im an old NFL fantasy player just had 2 years off focusing on DFS

Im also thinking L3 might not get off the ground. Any thought of going to 2 x 10man league (10 man a general standard in most articles)

10 or 8, neither bothers me but I'm thinking we'd probs be better rolling to 10 what with the uncertainty surrounding things at the mo.

Better to have two quality teams than a large quantity of half interested bozos.

Only problem with 2 10 team leagues is we already have 21 registered in the leagues, can grab one 1 and do a 12 and a 10

otherwise give it to Thursday/Friday as season doesn't start until 09th September

So long as those remaining spots are filled with peeps that are actually interested that'd be no problem. Alternatively fill em out with a second team by someone if they have the time to do so and drafts are at different times.

Im happy to go back to being a reserve as the 21st person. Gives you 20 now and if someone drops out at any stage i can jump straight in

stay where you are for now mate, give it a tad longer

Sorry, just talked to my mate and after I explained that he has to commit 100% fir the whole season he decided it best he doesn't join - doesn't wanna let peopl down, and he's quite busy so probably best. I vote 2 leagues, 10 each league. Sounds like we have 20 keen players. Better that than risk bringin in a couple stragglers that bail out 3 rounds in..,.

So how are people sorting out their pre-draft player rankings?

I've got my list with a couple of players per position that I'd take in a particular order - e.g. I have 2 RBs that I'd take in Rd 2, 3 WR I'd take in Rd 3 etc.

That means I discount a bunch of (presumably quality) players, so do those guys just fall away or do you keep them somewhere in the order?

At the moment, I've got the top 30-odd players that I'd take from Rd 1 to 12ish at the top of my list - Is this the best way to lay it out, or will I miss out on the next best guys to take in a particular round.

Does this make sense?

Just so we're clear, its best to take the QB and Kickers in Rd 1 and 2 - right?

I've got a list of must have Kickers. Going to start bringing in those until it won't let me bring any more in and then move onto the other positions which I intend to wing as my planning doesn't extend past the kickers.

Not the best way to do it mate, if your wanted picks go then your next ranked players might be a round or 2 below and the timer could run out before you scroll down to find players you hadn't of thought of taking
