    We could see if we’d get enough people in the league here. Send like 25 a team somewhere or a trusted mod who pays out. I don’t play free leagues. Drafted a beast team last night imo.

    Mad I didn’t get Theilen, went a few picks before me. But I have 5 rbs and all considered starters. All I need is either Chris Carson, Jamal Williams, or Royce Freeman or AP to explode and I’ll easily have the best team in the league with Le’Veon Bell as my main rb. Aj green late second round was a steal. Real late in the draft I went with Beasley. I figured if that’s Dak’s main go to he may have potential.

    And Odell went like 12 pick overall lol If Timmy T played in our “professional” league he would have drafted Odell top 5 and everyone would have laughed. I took Drew Bree’s as my qb. Andrew Luck,
    Carson Wentz, Kirk cousins were all above him but felt Brees was the obvious safer pick.
    Luck went late. If he ends up doing good he’ll
    be a steal for how late he was drafted.

    There aint no telling how Luck will do. That trip to Europe might pay off for him cause he is a monster now compared to how he was before the shoulder injury. And yeah if we can get enough people I'd pay 25 with the assumption that winner gets the whole pot

    Just do an ESPN one or one where you have limited time to pick and we usually do 1 point per reception but .5 is ok.

    Didn’t read the flea flicker part until now. If it’s easy to make pickes and doesn’t take a long time for someone to make a pick I’d be down for it. The online leagues i do on a site I believe the time limit is 2 mins to make your pick

    Finding a time that works for everyone in scattered online leagues is difficult. Slow drafts allow sevet hours per pick and lasts days to a week. But no auto draft BS then. If we fill this b---- quick we can start ASAP and be done in a few days. Fleaflicker allows much more customization than regular Yahoo or ESPN crap.

    Yeah it’s difficult to find a time that suits everyone. But allowing several hours for someone to make one pick is unnecessary.
    Have it set automatically on a timed System and if they don’t pick within those 3 mins, the computer gives you the next available best player automatically. I say set it up even a 10 man league for one night and time everyone agrees on. I’m 100% down. I joined sl’s basketball draft a few years ago and beat @redsoxx a---, I think.

    Evenings I’m good to go just need to pick a date in advance.

    If everyone agrees on a time then yeah, live draft with 1 minute a pick. If we can't agree, then from experience I suggest slow draft. Could do 2 hours a pick with pauses at night. I mean who doesn't check their phones every couple hours? Auto draft is BS and players who can't make live draft and end up auto drafting usually just quit anyways if their team sucks.

    I say we see if we can find at least a 10 man league with 10 posters first like you said before the whole 2 hour pick thing. Even a 2 minute pick time is fine and is what a league I use does. The only thing with a hour pick gap if someone falls asleep they don’t pick until the next day? I never played in something like that

    No there's a couple options. You can have night pause or just make the draft hours longer. For example, I'm in the middle of a slow draft right now. We have 8 hours a pick. But we're averaging only 2 hours per pick. If you have good players and people that care, they make their picks as soon as they can. The 8 hours is just there for overnight security in case a guy goes on the clock at 11PM when he's sleeping. But then my league knows to use the auto draft/queue feature then.

    I'm just saying, there's options to have everyone draft their own guys without auto draft BS. It's hard to get a league where everyone is all over the place to draft live on a specific day/night.

    I think we could maybe get 10 people here to show up on a draft night. And if only one doesn’t too bad they get auto picks once their time runs out. Maybe start a draft league thread where members commit to it and see how many we get.

    i'm gonna pass on the fantasy football league. i like fantasy football, but i only want to be in one league because if i'm in multiple leagues.......its just too much to keep up with.

    jaguars marqise lee (their number ONE WR) has what appears to be a serious knee injury and jalen ramsey said its because of the new helmet rule. i think its nice that the league is trying to make the game safer, but football by its nature is a violent sport---i don't think there's a lot you can do to make it safer--it is what it is

    i think that's a big loss for the jags because some of the WR's they had last season......are no longer on the team. they were already kinda thin at WR and now their number 1 WR is likely out for a long period of time---and that's bad because bortles needs all the help he can get

    Jags will be fine at WR. Dede and Cole are better WR than Lee anyways. Plus DJ Chark also.

    they're saying carson wentz is unlikely to start week 1---and he'll probably miss a couple more weeks as well. not really surprising because he got hurt late in the regular season. so it looks like the eagles will have to turn to nick foles
