if only i can keep the unicorns and wizards on my team

 

Need the league number not name.

Also is it an auto draft or is the going to be a draft in chat or some other way?

My experience with Fantasy is that 20 teams is too many. Most are limited to 10-15 teams. Otherwise the quality of players are very limited. The person unfortunate to draft 20 get picks 20-21 and does not draft again for 40 more picks. Just a thought.

 

Thanks for taking the time to sit this up , But im already an LM for a League at work

 

Changed it to 12 teams

Auto Draft

 

hehe...we just finished our live draft for our local fantasy football league about 30 minutes ago. I've got a fairly decent team going and we havent even stated talking about trades yet.

 

Sorry guys, I would love to get into this, but i don't have a clue with this kind of stuff,
never really had the time, money, etc... If someone wanted to take the time to send me a pm explaining how it works I might...
otherwise, it is cool that you set this up!!!

 

It is not really that hard if it is auto draft because the computer drafts for you. You have to go in each week and set your lineup. That is pretty much it.

In live draft leagues it is important to know each players bye week, strength of each players schedule, prior years start rate and points. You also have to keep up with the keepers of other teams you are playing against. If you pick up a stud player as a free agent this year, next year you want to keep him he would become your 15th round pick. So you may not want to draft a player that is hurt for 6-7 weeks or a player like Brandon Marshal (Broncos) Chris Henry (Bengals) who is going to be suspended. Most likely he/they will be able to be picked up as a free agent and if they produce you could keep him in the 15th were he may otherwise be drafted in the 3,4 next year. You also have to learn the trends of the people you are playing against, if you know that you want a certain tight end, but you have not yet drafted your RBs, WR, you may have to go ahead and get your stud TE so someone does not get them.

In our draft that we are having tomorrow I have the 5th pick I could have had 2-10 but I chose 5th so that only 10 players would be selected between any of my picks. Usually drafts got 1-10, 11-1 and so on like a snake order. I have spent about 30 hours researching and I have a full draft "board" as do the other guys I play with. It is fun, it is a hobby but in our league we play for about $2,000.00 for the winning team so it is also competitive.

Yahoo does a pretty fair job at free fantasy, we do CBS sportsline because it is up to the second scoring and we have watching parties to see how we are doing against the other people. Play it this year, you should have fun.

 

I am in.
