Draft today!

it looks like it was changed
---

draft next week
---

I don't remember what day the draft was, but I know it's not until September.
---

i think it's saturday.
---

Looks like we might be doing a 12 team league this year. Sorry! Smaller board makes it harder to find replacements sadly.
---

Draft is Saturday at 8:45 EST.
---

10 to 1 I forget somehow and get angry about the autodraft, even though it does a better job than I would have.
---

Full league aw yeah!

Let me know if you guys are ok with the roster size/score settings as I can still change those!
---

It's the same as it always has been, so it works for me.
---

draft tomorrow duders.
---

Draft today!
---

oh shit, I would have forgotten. I still might forget. 5 hours is a long time.
---

Anyone try mobile drafting through the app?
---

It's almost time!
---

Ping peopl who aren't here IMO
---

I remind everyone the day before and then i completely forget. wheee.

I feel like you've been the one bumping this topic nearly every time, too!
---

he usually is
---

Yeah. I just got busy and forgot. oh well.
---

Thanks for tagging for the draft. Appreciate it.
---

The good news is the last guy to miss the draft and get kinda angry about it lost like one game in the regular season.
---

@Corrik formal petition for you to change your team name to the moon men.

Formal petition to scrap that league and redraft. Im never gonna log into a team that prolly half the league autodrafted = (((
---

Only two people weren't there.

Easier to log in when you're not converting from moon time.

Hey, it gave me two kickers! Are you telling me I didn't have a right to be bugged by that?
---

I didn't say you shouldn't be angry!

Just that it is apparently the key to success in this league.
---

Well, Yahoo told me I won this draft, so until it all comes undone in week 1, I'm going to gloat about how I (allegedly) have the best team.

/gloat
---

I do love how I have the supposed toughest opponent, and so it'll all come down to how our points go down.

It will be ironic if I lose to Swiss Cross is Gud, considering I was the one who mentioned that in chat after drafting a bunch of players whose draft stock was impaired by them being hurt. I have six players that are questionable, and others that have played minimally in the preseason.

At least there aren't any Thursday night games. We can take until Saturday to see how things pan out.

Yup, and I was the one that made a sarcastic reply of "yes" because what it means is they have injuries. I have someone who had draft stock impaired due to injury, and for now he's on my bench until he's good and healthy...
---

Made some moves to make my team better. hopefully it works.
---

How the fuck is it literally possible to auto draft a team this bad. I have no Qb no wr 1rb no te. Like holy fuck
---

K fuck that league. Not wasting my time on that. Thats ridiculous
---

Just look at my team dude. Its almost impossible to make a team that bad.
---

You are currently projected to lose by 28 points, but you have a grand total of 0 points given to you by your defense.

If you fix that you should be fine!
---

Like just looking at the team you're going against this week, I'd take your RB 1 and 2 over theirs, and probably your WR1/2/3 over theirs as well.

This is less of an issue with the autodraft and more because you drafted 14/14 so there were no true obvious round one picks left.
---

Corrik what is your team
---

just asking, can you guys rate my 12 team, .5 ppr draft? Ive been in this league for 13 years now and we switched to 2 qbs (in a 12 team which is stupid) this year, so each team cant even have 2 starters and a backup

QB: Brees
WR: Nelson
WR: Martavis Bryant
WR: J. Matthews
RB: Hunt
RB: Powell
TE: Olsen
W/R/T: Gillislee
Q/W/R/T (So QB if you want to win): Roethlisberger
K: Boswell
DEF: Seattle

BN: T. West
BN: Moncrief
BN: Perriman
BN: M. Lee
BN: Fleener
BN: Goff

RB is i think my weakest spot, but overall I like it.

&#57399;
WR
Michael Thomas NO
Keenan Allen LAC
Stefon Diggs Min

Like his bench is terrible but that is easy to fix during the season.

You guys do defensive players, too? Geez. That puts it over the edge for me. Too much to keep up with.
---

I kinda wanted to get rid of the defensive players for a couple years now, but it seems to be ingrained tradition at this point.

The original version of this league that I inherited from...someone who I can't remember now (older B8 guy...maybe Wigs?) had 8 defensive players, and I cut that down in half immediately because that always annoyed me.
---

I actually like defensive players.
---

Are defensive players noticeably less predictable?

Like I'm sure there is some degree of reliability to it, but it seems like defensive players might incidentally get credit for things more often as a result of poor offensive play than the other way around. Or something. Possibly just me making assumptions because I have no experience with it.
---

This is my first time doing fantasy football in yahoo; what do those stars stand for? Just how good they're projected to do for the week?

I have two servicable starters.

The most overrated QB who will probably get benched midseason in Dak. My TE is basically an every other week 0.

My 2nd RB is terrible. My W/R/T still plays in this league? My 2 receivers Diggs and whoever... lmfao

It's impossible to draft such a bad team.

The stats are just projections

I don't think they mean much given I've usually undershot them but it only really makes bench decisions more interesting

A tackle is a point, an assisted tackle is half, a sack is two, an int is two and the yards they get I think, defensive tackles are two.

Usually my strat is just pick up the dudes who make a lot of tackles
