Cool

We're up to 5 now. If you cant make the draft, make sure you pre-rank your players. Draft positions will be randomly selected by the computer (not me) 30 minutes before the draft.

Is there a wager involved in this? Or is this just for the hell of it.

I changed a few of the settings and I think everyone will be happy with them

You now start
1 qb
2 rb
3 wr
1rb/wr
1 te
1k
1 def
1 d
1 db
1 dl

And will have a nice deep bench to work with

Should be a good time, I'm looking forward to draft day.

I agree, I think I would be happy with just a Defense Team. IMO...

Regardless, I am excited to play...

You only have 3 defensive players (unless you draft some for the bench) and most take those late in the draft.

Most fill their bench with at least 1 more QB a few rb's a few wr's an extra kicker and a second te and defensive team.

That's what we are saying, do we really need all those defensive postions? I play money leagues and we play only a defensive team or at most a defensive team and one defensive position. All those defensive positions and a deep bench is going to make for a long draft.

I don't really care because it will be fun to school you guys...LOL...just starting the preseason smack talk.

I may just end up bailing out half way through the draft and let those spots get picked for me. It will be tough for me to give up 1 1/2 to 2 hours for this draft.

Hopefully everyone will be ready to make their picks and it will move pretty fast.

Absolutely...they seem to be completely random. The "O" rankings are very good but the "D" useless!
