So its Sunday 18th at 7pm (UK) for the group A draft I believe?

Are my 9 league A compatriots cool with that?

That's the default setting when you log into Fantasy NFL site, i don't think the draft has been finalised, you can still change the draft date, 7pm Sunday is inconvenient for me as i'm elsewhere.

That's the time that I've set. I'll try to be accommodating as much as possible so please let me know what time frame suits everyone. The draft is scheduled this Sunday. I'm open to anything in the afternoon and we'll do what the majority wants but if you don't say anything it will stay as is

If others need other times I’m happy to move.

I’ve actually got my mates draft on the same day and they’ve just put it in for 7pm too. Two drafts might be too much to juggle!

Would 10 PM UK time [and 5 PM ET US] be more convenient?  [for League A]?

That means for us in the states, it would be early sunday morning.


How does everyone feel about that?

With 10 team league, should be able to pick up decent RB or WR in the first couple of rounds, then again everyone else will be doing the same thing. ;D

Looking forward to it, hopefully should be getting high scores once the season starts, a load of us were struggling to make 70.00 last year.

Thats because we all had players that even their own mothers wouldn't have drafted  ;D

Ha ha, yep, we were feeding off scraps, far better the way it's being done this year. ;D

How many rounds are we having, seem to remember we had around 15 rounds last year, you could pick 2 QBs, 4 RBs, 4 WRs, 2 TEs, 2 DEFs, think it was just one kicker though.

It will be the same, once your starting line up is set, you can pick whatever position for your bench, [for instance you could pick all QB's if you wanted to]

Didn't we agree on QB, WR x 2, RB x2, WR/RB, TE, K, DST & 6 Bench players?

That seems to be whats set up for League A.

I don't mind if this changes but can we have confirmation please DeFacto?

Yes, that is the line up. The bench players can consist of whatever you want.

League B - if everybody posts a date or two that they're available before the start of the season, would that make it easier to arrange a time for the draft?

And no need to pick your line up first. You can pick bench options and go back to lesser positions like kickers.

I assume if you don't make your pick yourself it will auto draft for you

I'm not sure if you can provide a list of players you want the system to auto-draft should they be available?

You can put a list of players in and you can tell it which positions to target in each round.

Yes, i think its just the website.

On the player ordering page their is a tiny line of writing linking you to the appropriate page where you can order the position(s) you want to take in each round.

eg.

1-QB
2-RB
3-WR
4-RB

etc.
