Re: Bluemoon NFL Fantasy Draft Sunday Sept 1st 8pm

OK - Div 1 ready to go

3 still left in div 2 with 2 reserves on standby

Just had a really interesting pm exchange with bluealf who has done an auction instead of a traditional draft. It sounds much fairer. I guess our issue would be getting all 10 managers together at the same time (it is online), I doubt we'll all be there on Sunday. Maybe one to consider for future years.

An auction draft can last a lot longer than the standard snake draft but it is good fun. Definitely a thought for another year.

is the draft 8pm Sunday?

how does the draft work as I've only played NFLUK Fantasy before and there is no draft in that?

Yeah.

Right there are 15 rounds I think in which each team will take it in turns to pick a player for their team. So if you are first pick in the first round you will have the choice of anyone, however you will be last pick in the 2nd round, draft position is random but can affect the outcome of you team. For eg. if you're last pick in the first round, chances are you won't get a top 5 pick, so plan for that to happen. Its not like the football fantasy over here where you can choose whoever, if some picks Ray Rice for example then no one else can have Ray Rice.

There team you have to pick consists of:

Quarterback
2x Running Backs
2x Wide Recievers
Tight End
Kicker
Defen(s)e of a team
1 wide reciever/running back (Your choice which one)

Then usually 6 to 8 subs depending on league settings.

Other than that have fun and just plan your team before the draft and try and get as close to that team as possible, mock drafts help.

quick question?

when the season is underway can you sub kickers and defenses eg if that team is on a bye week?
