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]

Reminder draft is set for September 4th at 20:00 GMT!

[ooooh Morley Morley]

Add me in again please

"I may be wrong, but I think Baker Mayfield might be a bit of a steal for the Panthers once he settles in. That move will go one of two ways. Either he will think 'fuck this shit', take the money and go into gradual decline like other ex-#1 picks who don't quite meet expectations, or he will be relieved to get out of the graveyard that is Cleveland, get fired up (which is more in character with him) and go out and prove people wrong. Mayfield has top-tier talent. His attitude, and coach, will be what determines what happens next. I quite like his street-fighting 'fuck you' attitude. It's very Gotham. I'm sure his career would have been a bit different if he'd come to NYC instead of Darnold (a West Coast/California fit if ever there was one)."

"The 49ers handing Deebo that big contract (which suits them both: I'm pleased he stayed with your lot) means you probably HAVE to offload Jimmy G at some point soon. Otherwise he's going to be a big hit against your cap during the season, even though it's highly unlikely he'll throw a football for San Francisco again. There will be a small market for him, but the 49ers will probably have to lower their expectations a bit. Giants or Falcons, maybe? There aren't too many other landing spots, unless Watson's ban gets extended in Cleveland."

[Lee Trundle]

Good to see Deebo Samuel sign a new contract. We still have Jimmy G if anyone wants him?

"I see Deshaun Watson is still throwing vast sums at trying to pay his way out of potential trouble - and largely succeeding. He has now settled 23 out of the 24 civil claims/cases against him. But now the NFL is unhappy with his six-game ban and want it extended. Apparently, the league itself wanted him banned for a full season, and have appealed. As things stand, he now faces no criminal charges, has settled all but one of the mountain of claims against him and will be ready to play for his new side (Browns) by October. It seems like a lot to have invested in one very troubled bloke, but he's certainly a talented QB."

zebthecat 12:59 Wed Jul 13 Pretty much the opposite of me last year Thanks again Crystal

[zebthecat]

Thanks crystal. I fully expect to do the usual and do well in the league and then get crushed in the playoffs.

[Hermit Road]

Sunday the 4th sounds good. In the diary it goes. Cheers.

"southbankbornnbred 5:41 Fri Jun 17 Sign up, it's good. Unless you take the players I want in the draft in which case, the joke's on you because my draft is always shit"

[crystal falace]

Will be setting the draft for sunday 4th september. As always as close to the start of the season as possible to avoid anyone's players getting injured beforehand.

[Nutsin]

"West Ram united? cսnt of a name, there's some right wankers on WHO."

[crystal falace]

Have 11 teams confirmed to be joining again. Only team from last season not confirmed is thunderbastards whoever that belongs to? I can still increase the number of teams in the league though so there is still space for new people to join if they wish.

[zebthecat]

"southbankbornnbred 5:41 Fri Jun 17 Go for it, you'll enjoy it really. I was iffy at first but it takes the edge off when your fantasy team wins (I have been a 'fin since I was 4 - even before West Ham)."

[southbankbornnbred]

"I'm thinking about joining up, but will decide. My only problem with fantasy NFL stuff is that I am fucking obsessed with defense, and therefore massively skewed. It shows every time! I'm basically the Jets in West Ham Online form: haven't scored offensive points for decades!"

[Hermit Road]

Norf should get his brother to do a team. The greatest minds of WHO Vs the greatest minds of the NFL. Let's go.

[crystal falace]

For those asking yes it will just be the same league so if you're in the list below you're already in. I'll remove the teams for people who dont get back to me to replace them with new people or add space for new teams if required

[crystal falace]

So far we have: Crystal falace Boston blitz Feeleys helmet Great turley rip off Ashdown vipers Milton keynes hammers Whu eagles Deportivo hammers Occupy seahawks West Ram united 10 teams confirmed. Could have space for another 4.

[OccupyGreenStreet]

"Damn, missed this message. I'll whomail you crystal. Team name is ""òOccupy Seahawks'."

[Hermit Road]

Ha. Much deepers.

[crystal falace]

7 team slots filled already. Ive had an 8th message but it didnt have a team name on it so unsure which 8th team i'm saving a slot for

[Norflundon]

"Is that hatred from the two MASSIVE hidings you got last season""¶.or does it go deeper than that"

[Hermit Road]

Any chance of dropping some round my house so I can wipe my arse with it?

[Norflundon]

My brother comes home Friday and I've told him to bring a suitcase full of cowboys gear including a Parson (actual) top and a lamb or Prescott one He seems quite happy with the draft and how the new players are slotting in seems quite optimistic about this season although we have a pretty tough schedule this year

[Norflundon]

It was actually going to be cowboys v packets but being probably the biggest regular season TV audience they changed their mind
