Just playing with a mock draft and I see that the overall round 1 expert pick suggestions are made up entirely of RB and WR with a few TE thrown in

Please forgive my ignorance but i take it these positions are usually the biggest FF scorers?

Yes, RB's are your pot of gold in these leagues, as they have both rushing and receiving yards that can pile up and give you tons of points.

How about your 6 bench players. What is the usual makeup of a bench?

A backup QB and Kicker plus 4 of WR/RB/TE maybe?

Le'Veon Bell still being one of the best RBs even though he did sit out last year, he'll go first or second pick.

It's entirely up to you. I have back ups depending on bye weeks [weeks in which several teams don't play so your starting players will not be available]. So at at times I may have 3 RB's, or 3 WR's, but I always tend to have a back up QB no matter what. I'd go with 3 players I rotate with and then the rest depending on schedule

Sorry man just trying to get my head around this.

So the bench players I pick in the draft stay on the bench for the entirety of the season and only come into play if one of my starters is out.

For instance. I have Mahomes as my starting QB and Mayfield as my backup.

Mahomes isn't having a good season so even though he will play in a game-week can i move Mayfield into the starting QB position and move Mahomes to the bench?

Good point, watch out for bye weeks which go from week 4 to week 12 this year, also watch out for TNF & MNF, were you can score a load of points early & late over the weekly rounds, can be kind of annoying if you don't have anyone on your team for MNF your opponent does, then it can flip were you have players scheduled for MNF your opponent doesn't.

Mate you can play them whenever you want, for instance you may want to take multiple good players even if they arent' all starting because performances may dip and what not. It's entirely up to you how you are going to line up. Also match ups. You are looking at who is playing who, some defenses excel in one area, while others excel in others, for a particular game you may need a player that suits style XYZ, and so on.

Gutted Chak has withdrawn although Jetmir seems like a thoroughly nice bloke to be fair. I have set my sights on crushing Trend now who will hopefully draft in Colt McCoy as his starting QB

Well out Buck!

But our GM has identified a significant resource on the waiver wire - Chakan has sold his expansion team to Jetmir and we have secured his services at a big big big big big big big price! He's worth it though.

Team Chak/Trend WIN!

League warning: We are here to win, but have little interest in the sport beyond local loyalties.

You can use bench players anytime during the season, it's necessary as well with bye weeks, oh & watch out for injuries, some players are already out for the season so watch out for that when your doing the draft, once the week is underway you can't change your team, the week starts with Thursday Night Football, ends with Monday Night Football.

You can also swap players from waivers, although you have to wait until i think Wednesday afternoon for any waivers to be confirmed as the worst team of the week has first choice on waivers.

deFacto please, you bastards · « **Reply #183 on:** August 6, 2019, 04:55:03 pm »

You can change your team up until the game starts. If you draft someone that is injured, you can drop them and see who is a free agent [ie not selected by anyone else in the league] and get that player instead.

Buck Pete · « **Reply #184 on:** August 6, 2019, 05:22:41 pm »

Ah right ok. So between game weeks from your pool of 15 players you can pick your 9 man team for the upcoming game-week As long as it conforms to:

QB
RB
RB
WR
WR
WR
TE
DST

So for waivers. When you see ''FA'' next to a player that means that the player is a free agent and will be added to your team automatically. When they're on waivers that means that the move will depend on who else is trying to sign him. So for instance, based on everyone standing in the league, the team with the lowest rank has the best chance of signing a player if there is more than one team interested.

So lets say I want player Z, and you do as well, but for that week, my rank is lower than yours, I get priority over you.

Now if there is no one else interested, then the player goes to you.

Buck Pete · « **Reply #186 on:** August 6, 2019, 05:37:45 pm »

Cheers for that DeFacto

So can you drop someone in your team if they are under-performing and bring in someone else on a waiver?

Or can you only swap players out who are injured?

You can drop any player at any given time unless they've been designated by NFL.com as undroppable [and you will see a red minus next to their name, this is usually only assigned to the very best players]

Unfortunately I have no control of the autopick feature. If we do an offline draft then that would take forever on here, and then we'd import the results into the league. But using their draft system, there are two options

- live online draft which is what we're currently doing
- a draft based on NFL.com's default rankings or a manager's pre-rankings of players. Draft may occur at any time on the specified date. [this is autopick for everyone]

Pick time can be changed up to 5 minutes per pick.
