Bridgford Ram Posted May 20, 2015 Author Share Posted May 20, 2015 Thanks mate.Maybe DeSean Jackson? Must admit, I've not noted down any Washington players yet! Shame you won't be joining in the league, understand it if you are busy though. Hope you still keep involved in the thread as much as time allows.

r4derby Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Just having a look at a few things and got a few thoughts;- I don't think we should activate Individual Defensive Players scoring as this might make it overly complicated.- I think we should go with a standard draft but with snake pick meaning whoever has first draft in round 1 is last in round 2 etc.- Stick with default for squad size (roster of 16) and default point scoring- I think we can have league voting to accept trades etc, seems like a good idea.All solid suggestions, and my default. Sounds good, the majority of settings can be changed up to the draft, so we decide others later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r4derby Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Anyone who wishes to join the forums fantasy football, make yourself known. The league is being set up tomorrow (Friday), and I'm not sure whether the number of teams can be changed.(If we are inundated with people asking, a second league can be arranged, so don't worry about too many people saying yes!

I have looked but can't find the answer anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridgford Ram Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 My last couple of posts don't seem to have worked. I found the following information out yesterday that may help other newbies to FF. It seems that each squad has 15 players and you need to select 9 starters each week. The starters need to be a QB, 2x RB, 2x WR, TE, K, Def and then either an additional RB or WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have looked but can't find the answer anywhere.You can participate in as many leagues as you like. The most I have had is 6 leagues a couple of seasons ago, although I wouldn't recommend it, too many and you will end up forgetting about some to focus on a few. Most I would say is 3 leagues, means you will have time to focus on each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridgford Ram Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share Posted May 25, 2015 Thank you to @r4derby for setting the league up. It looks like there are three places remaining for teams to join the league.Couple of questionsI might change my mind on this when I have tried a mock draft but I may request longer than 90 seconds per selection in the draft. It might get a bit panicky if the team selecting before you has taken your next pick and you have to choose a new player. Like I say, it might be enough and I'll see when I do a mock.I like the fact 8 teams go into the play offs, keeps the season alive for most teams.It looks like we can trade with each other or add as many undrafted players as we want, is that correct? That helps with one of the decisions I was going to make.What are waivers?With the undroppable list, does this mean that NFL.com produce a list of the top players and if I have one - say Le'Veon Bell - I can't drop him from my roster in exchange for an undrafted player? Do they update undroppable list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they update undroppable list? Whilst I kind of agree it could get a bit panicky, that is also the fun part. It makes it fast and frenetic and also encourages people to do their research, in case that situation arises. It also helps if one or two people aren't online to do the draft live, as the site will take the full allotted time before making the pick automatically. This can be quite a ballache when you've got several teams doing this.Waivers are where an owner can put in a claim for an undrafted player but they have to wait a certain amount of time before it becomes official (I think the NFL one is usually on a Wednesday). If more than one owner puts in a claim for the same player, it goes to the waiver priority (starts off as the draft order in reverse but then switches to standings-based).You can't drop an undroppable player at all. All pre-determined at the start of the season, based on how they've performed and how long they've been performing at that level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
