Buccaneers-Dolphins postponed due to Hurricane Irma, teams set to play Week 11.

 Means both teams will be playing 16 straight weeks.

[Ray K]

Cowboys RB Zeke Elliott is still facing a 6 game suspension despite being allowed to play in Sunday's opener, so I'd avoid him.  QB Andrew Luck doesn't have a return date from injury either, but might be worth if you can buy a 2nd QB.
Get the feeling that Christian McCaffrey is going to go gangbusters in that Carolina offense.


Sunday's Miami - Tampa Bay game moved to their bye week in November because of the hurricane.

Get Odell Beckham or Antonio Bryant as your no1 receiver. Mike Evans of Tampa Bay might not be a bad shout either.

Thanks.

Not Julio Jones? 

[Ray K]

Thanks.

Not Julio Jones? 

Everyone will be looking for Julio.  AJ Green might get close to him in points because the Bengals have nobody else close to him and will be getting more targets.

OK thanks.

The other thing.

Was told to get a kicker who plays indoors?

Apparently they kick from further distances, so are going to miss more kicks, so want to take wind out of the equation.

So which are the best kickers that play indoors please?

Just select Justin Tucker from the Ravens - guy is automatic.

[Klippity Klopp]

OK, I'll try. Thanks again.

[Ray K]

OK, I'll try. Thanks again.

If he's not available, try Dan Bailey of the Cowboys.  Good kicker, plays indoors, they'll score lots.

Sounds good.

[deFacto please, you bastards]

Are you lot interested in setting up a league and taking part?

[Mr F]

Are you lot interested in setting up a league and taking part?

I'd be up for it!

[deFacto please, you bastards]

Alright lads Ill set it up once I get back home from work. We need at least 6 of us, but ideally 10.

Ill post the link and everything, your welcome to spread it to other reds. Ideally we need to get this done before tomorrows game and set up the draft

[Klippity Klopp]

I'm 4th pick!

Up for that if you still have places.

[Ray K]

As rubbish as I am in all types of fantasy football, stick me in.  It'll give me a reason to get worked up about the uselessness of several teams and players that for reasons unknown I'll end up with.

[Rob K]

I'll jump if there's space too

[deFacto please, you bastards]

Lads here it is

Join my NFL Fantasy League. Ive had to set the draft time today, no other option until Friday and there is a game tomorrow. So I set it 6 and a half hours from now. We need 10 teams to start the draft (you can set up autopicks if you like) and if we get all 10, we can draft earlier than that

[mc_red22]

Just select Justin Tucker from the Ravens - guy is automatic.

In one my drafts 6 kickers got picked ahead of Tucker, I had to laugh.

[deFacto please, you bastards]

5 slots left now lads

[mc_red22]

5 slots left now lads

I'll take a slot if possible mate?

[Trev20]

He is your guy 

[Ray K]

Right, Mike Zimmer's Eyepatch is good to go.

How do you set up autopick if we're not around for the draft?

[mc_red22]

He is your guy 

I love me some Tucker! Not a fan of his celebrations mind.

[mc_red22]

Right, Mike Zimmer's Eyepatch is good to go.

How do you set up autopick if we're not around for the draft?

You can either set up your pre-draft rankings (might be a good idea if you have some players you really want) or...

I think there's the option whereby if you don't actively make your first pick then it goes to auto draft anyway.

[Chakan]

I'm gonna do so well in this, I have no idea who the players are other a few QBs and WR and the Carolina Panthers

[KillieRed]

Tried to join, but stupid tablet can't connect.

I'm in another league and very happy how my auto draft turned out - probably better than I woulda done!

[Gerry Attrick]

I wasn't going to join for this very reason, but I think I will now 

[Red Star]

I've joined up but still 3 teams short? Does that mean no draft?

[Chakan]

I wasn't going to join for this very reason, but I think I will now 

Haha come on mate, just s bit of fun anyway

If I can do it anyone can

[mc_red22]

Am I right in saying the draft is at 3am?

[mc_red22]

1 more slot left...

[Rob K]

The Swansons are in.

[Gerry Attrick]

I've joined.
