When do people want to draft?

 

Any forum members who are just getting into the NFL who want to give fantasy a go? Its really simple and no harder than 'soccer' fantasy football. Definitely worth a go.

 

Any date other than 27-29 August fits me.

 

Just ordered 10 new shirts for my league members. We’re drafting on the 2nd September this year.

I really can’t wait for this season. It seems to get better every year. I’ve now stopped watching any football other than Celtic and instead just focus my time on the NFL.

I am worried this season about the new lowering the helmet rule. It’s been a joke in the pre season and really doesn’t seem to work. But we will see what happens.

The Saints will hopefully go a few games better than last year and win the whole thing this year. If the defence can play aswell as they did last year then there’s a chance.

Who is everyone else backing to win it this year?

 

Green Bay have made some good moves and that * Brady can’t last forever, but I’ll stick my neck out and say it won’t be the Dolphins.

 

Just ordered this! What a perfect Celtic/Saints hybrid hoodie

 

Is there still places available.

 

There were people in the league last year who barely took part so I'm sure you could have one of their spaces if you are keen.

 

Aye am Game for it.

 

I put money on the Falcons and the Titans but that was mainly because I thought the odds they were at were really good for the ability they have.

In the AFC, New England will likely be there or thereabouts again, I like the Chargers but they are incredibly unlucky with injuries so likely won't manage to go all the way and the Texans could be a dark horse. My pick for AFC winners is the Jaguars. Their defense is great and their offense should be marginally better than it was last year, which will put them really close.

The NFC is stacked and far harder to call. The Eagles are still loaded, the Rams too. The Falcons are strong, the Saints weren't far away last year and basically have the same team again this year, and you can never write off the Packers with Aaron Rodgers under center, plus they finally have a good defensive co-ordinator. If I had to pick a team I think I would choose the Saints. If Marcus Davenport is good, then they have all the tools to win it all.

 

Aye that QB1 is good. Jake Fromm and Tate Martell are polar opposites. Ones a good lad, the others a wee *.

 

When is the Fantasy draft

 

When people say when they can do it

 

Anytime apart from tonight.

 

Saints just got Teddy Bridgewater from the Jets for a third round pick next year.

Happy with that, he can be a starter in this league and wouldn't mind him as Brees successor.

 

Strange one as he's essentially writing off this season. Brees not going anywhere soon. Shame as Hill looked like he has potential and a dual threat which is almost unheard of in NO

 

The Jets are a * riot.

 

Our league has been drafted. *?!

 

way to give a heads up about the draft

 

Yeh I missed it too. Brilliant.
