    Yeah for me.
    I missed it last year. Approximately how long will it last? (Draft)
     
  3. Figure @ 2.5 hours. Less if everybody comes in prepared.

    Auto-draft for me...I'll be on the road at that time. My apologies if that slows things up...

    Usually it just slows down the first round. If you can sign in before that and click "auto-draft" somewhere, it'll pick right away. If you don't, it usually makes us sit out the timer in the first round. After that it usually picks for you almost immediately.
     
  7. I'm probably going to be checking in late, hopefully only 1 or 2 rounds in. Don't want to set up for autodraft. Plan to be in by @5:30 edt.

    it's the honeymoon phase where everyone loves there team. by week 3 you usually can tell how things are going for you and some trades can be had.

    also since we only have 8 teams there are a LOT of intriguing options to pickup off waivers so i expect a lot of activity on the wire over wk 1 to wk 3

    In three of my leagues the Monday Night games aren't really relevant. I have a good lead, and my opponents don't have anyone playing. But in the 4th league we both are going to be watching the Ravens closely. If I can get Baltimore's Defense to score big, while Torrey Smith of B'more doesn't, I can end week one at 4-0 combined in my leagues. :cool:

    Realistically, since I need B'more D to outscore Smith by 9.05 in a fairly traditional scoring league to get one of the wins, I'll probably be 3-1 combined. I should've went with my gut and started Michael Bush over Fred Jackson.

    Hell, i should have started peyton instead of stafford.
    But looks like im gonna loose thia week. My oponent has a lead on me and has 2 playing tonight and all i have is Baltimore's defense tonight. Looks like im gonna start off thia year like i ended last year. Lol. Oh we its still fun
     
  14. I'm hoping that I don't pay too high a price for not starting Garcon. Left a lot of points on the bench.

    In my 4th league that I'm looking for a win in, it's now 96.98 - 97.02 after that Ed Reed INT for a TD.

    Show me some love Raven's D! :D

    I have no idea who half the players on my team are. I got Brady though. With the Pats having a "soft" schedule and the receivers they have, he should win a couple games for me.

    no offense, but i've never heard of anyone rostering two kickers. i'd recommend that unless you have one that's having an nfl historic year or something and he's on a bye week, to just hold one and snag a juicy free agent rb or wr.

    Well, this week wasn't as strong as last week's 4-0 start. I was 2-2, including a loss by ONE point in a league where I had Peyton Manning as my QB (3 INTs killed me). I also started Braylon Edwards (0pts) as a flex over Peyton Hillis (8pts) and Brandon Lloyd (6pts) over Mike Williams (12pts).

    Oh well, at least I didn't pick NE in my Survivor League like almost half of the rest of the guys did. :p There is something like 17-18 guys in the league, after only two weeks there are 7 of us left. :cool:
