The draft will be at 8:30 EST tonight.
At least you can rest assured that you didn't screw it up by not drafting RG3. ----- And holy crap, it's a miracle! The draft lobby is open and counting down to draft time!
I got a few picks in...but then things went haywire for me. I didn't know what I was doing...and things just got out of hand. Then all the names disappeared...and the machine was making choices for me. THE ****** LA RAMS DEFENSE!!! Oh well...I'm sure it will be fun to see how my accidental choices work out.
Dang did you guys have the draft? I was on a flight to fort worth. My yahoo isn't loadingggggggggggggggggggggggggggg
Okay...I've got a team...and it sucks. But what do I do next? Do I have to pick who I will use this week...and if "yes"...how do I do that?
I spent the entire 2014 season making fun of the guy. Do you remember how these stupid "analysts" were making excuses for him up to the very end? It was obvious that he was a distant third behind cousins and mccoy, but no one wanted to admit it. Damn, I hope you guys are good with the waiver wire!
Damn lol. Waiver wire is where you go pick up undrafted players. You are probably going to need it. I got a B. What did everyone else get? Nevermind, the list is on the right.
I got a B+ with autodraft and my team is legit. It stacked my bye weeks really bad, so someone is going to have a freebie against me week 8.
What is your team name? B+ without doing anything is pretty awesome lol. If you are deep dish, you don't need to worry about your receivers. If Bell blows up, you'll be in really good shape. I didn't pay much attention to my byes, but I usually figure out how to manage it. The automated analysis doesn't like my choice of two elite QB's, but they didn't cost much of anything, and I can always find a third long before I need one.
I got a B. Should be an interesting year considering the stacked teams we all pretty much have. Lots of high scoring affairs. I just now found out that yahoo does a fantasy hall of fame lol. Considering the stats of those in it I am not too far off from joining them. I used to be big into Yahoo fantasy but after I joined ESPN i fell in love and don't compete much in Yahoo. I will now though, need to raise that 61% success rate to about 70% and get about 4 or 5 more titles in football.
The waiver wire is the tab listed "players" (between 'matchups' and 'research'). You can click the '+' button to add a certain player, but you will have to drop someone from your existing roster to make room, as everyone's roster limit is set at 16 players. You can access the waiver wire from the 'my team' tab as well (it says 'add player'), and you can also drop players, propose trades, and the like from this page.
It's gonna be a cut throat league, I doubt anyone is safe lol. Oh and I took another look at that Hall of Fame, I'm very behind as far as championships. Although my record is good, in 10 years I have had 17 teams with 12 making the playoffs and 4 championships, all these others have 15-20 championships and they play 4-8 leagues a year lol. Guess I am gonna have to ramp up my (*)(*)(*)(*) next year and do damage.
I'd say you are crushing people lol. I only started playing in the 2013 season. I've been to the playoffs twice and won one superbowl. I'd say your record is pretty damn impressive!
My record is good and consistent but I just don't play as much as others because I'm mostly on ESPN and I just don't have enough titles for the "flashy" look. It's gonna come down to how much, not how consistent I feel. I started in 05' , had 4 teams that year in which all went to the playoffs and 2 won titles. As for you if you have won a title within 3 years of starting playing that to me is a great start, its harder to do than many think especially considering fantasy sports is like 20% knowledge and 80% luck. Everything has to go right to win a title. How many teams have you had?
Yeah, my team is deep dish. I did do a pre draft rankings so I'd have some say in case I couldn't make the draft, so there's that. I'm hoping the suspension of Bell will mean fresher legs later in the season when it turns cold and the Steelers air attack is blunted. At that point, I can switch to bell at RB and Rivers at QB in that warm San Diego weather.
