NFL (since 2016)

"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

[crystal falace]

Absolutely loved iin Baltimore - seemed pretty much hated everywhere else. Oh and everyone is pretty sure he got away with killing a couple of people

[Hermit Road]

"""apparently he was a good player?""ù You could say that. Legendary even. Seems like a decent fella too."

[Takashi Miike]

"I wasn't a fan, did he talk about the murder case he was involved in?"

[Norflundon]

Don't know much about NFL but just spent a week on holiday with Ray Lewis apparently he was a good player?

[ooooh Morley Morley]

Falace I've not accepted yet as only just seen who ail details.

[crystal falace]

"Not quite sure what other system it can do for them tbh, you usually end up with a very lopsided roster if you have autoselect though. What do people think to it being PPR (point per reception) this year? Seems to be the standard for most leagues nowadays but im happy to do it either way"

[IsaacHock]

@Crystal - is there any way you can change how auto-select works? If you could penalise players who dont attend the draft (rather than having them auto select the next best available) it might encourage attendance. I'm guessing you cant though...

[The Mercernary]

Joined! Was gutted to miss out last year after being in every one of these - cheers crystal falace!

[Takashi Miike]

"they've had almost a week to confirm, go to the next person"

[crystal falace]

"final warning for the one person who still hasnt signed up to the league, not sure who it is. we have someone who seems keen to get involved so i'll be checking when im home from work tomorrow and giving the spot up if its till available. want people who are going to pay attention and actually get involved in this properly"

[crystal falace]

"NFL has found that Tyreek Hill has not violated any rules and will return to the team for training camp, even though he's previously plead guilty to assaulting this same woman while she was pregnant with his child and there is now a voice recording of him threatening to hurt both her and the child. But heaven forbid he'd smoke some weed and get an instant 4 game suspension"

[crystal falace]

yeah sorry bud it filled up pretty quick. currently 2 people haven't accepted the email invitation and joined the league yet not sure which 2 as everyone is using different usernames but if they havent joined by say this time next week i'll send you an invite. ping me your email and you'll be the first one in if anybody else decides they dont want to commit to it.

[The Mercernary]

Crystal Falace - don't tell me I've missed it again! Can I be first reserve in case someone drops out?

[bobbymoore]

I'm in... Brady's Love Child. I will win this year

[crystal falace]

To first timers or people who havent done it for a while there is some very useful guidance on NFL fantasy on draft strategy etc also the NFL fantasy live podcast is worth a listen for tips with injuries etc and just general NFL news

[Takashi Miike]

"crystal, it goes to auto pick if you fail to select the first player, and then it's even quicker"

[Hermit Road]

I downloaded the app. I dont know if this makes drafting easier than the website.

[crystal falace]

"If you just dont make a pick the site will just draft you the next available ranked player, However i wouldnt advise this as you could end up with a very lopsided team and also it just slows the whole process down for everyone who has to wait for your timer to expire every round."

[zebthecat]

Thanks. Signed and it looks blummin complicated. Is there an option just to draft a few players and let the game do the rest? Not used to fantasy games where you have pre-draft list...

[Holstebro Hammer]

I'm in thanks Crystal. Good luck everyone. It's been a while since I've done anything fantasy wise. But looking forward to getting back into it.

[crystal falace]

last 2 email invites now sent

[crystal falace]

I believe we're now full. The guys who WHOmailed me today i'll send you the link to sign up this evening as i cant get on the NFL website on my work computer.

[Hermit Road]

I've signed up. Regarding the suggestion for putting a few quid on the line. I think that's a good idea. Will help keep me invested.

[crystal falace]

Believe i have sent out 9 invitations so far meaning that including me we only have 2 spaces left in the league.

[Mr. Burns]

I'm IN.
