Agreed. In a big league like this the quality drops significantly between the start of the second and the end.Quote:

I'll have my own cheat sheet anyway so I don't really read through the list, I'm just thinking about overall clarity.Quote:

Feel free to make whatever changes you like with respect to formatting. Last year some people colour coded the cells so that identifying players by position was really easy (useful for flex position and bench spots).
Here is last years sheet for reference:

What about those of us that have crapy cell phones?
24 hours now since Gatey picked but I'm reluctant to suggest we just bypass Haymaker as a) we've started early and b) it's a first round pick...
Though FFS Haymaker, shift your arse, would you?

Haymakers Patriots risk it all by selecting....
Robert "The Gronk" Gronkowski, New England Patriots.
No way the 12 hr limit will be enforced until noon tomorrowQuote:

It's ok I didn't expect him to be available when it came back to me :aok:Quote:

The 12 hour time limit will begin at 12:00
:greengrin I couldn't risk leaving him on the board. Not with you lurking around :greengrinQuote:

Use the usual method or wait until you get to a computer. I don't know what people use for cell phones but if you have anything like a smart phone it should be able to open up a google doc. You should be able to open it through the Google Docs app and I am sure you can access it through a browser too. If you have an old flip phone, you might be better off mailing in your picks. ;)Quote:

calvins pick
I assume we're still going with NFL.com, right?
I see no reason to change. We all have nfl.com logins, league is set up & we should all be comfortable with the mechanics of the league by now. If it ain't broke... :aok:
Agreed. I just wanted to make sure since scoring settings make a slight difference to pick strategy.Quote:

That will keep a track of who's been picked, who's available, etc. It's $4.99 so that might put you off but I downloaded it today and it seems like it will help a lot. I play in other leagues too so this helps in keeping all my information in one place, easy to access.
If he hasn't picked by midnight, does that mean the next person to pick has to make that pick by noon tomorrow?Quote:

We are about a month ahead of schedule compared to last time but it would be great to get the draft going at a reasonable pace :agree:Quote:

Does anyone / everyone use WhatsApp? If so, we could startup a group message and contact people that way.
I do. I'm not sure how a group is set up but if someone's willing to set it up for us then grand!Quote:

I'm keen for the whatsapp idea actually, would be quite handy.
Anyway, I'm gonna select Le'Veon Bell. Still worth it with the three game suspension. And I have to change the name of my team...
Also, I can't seem to edit the spreadsheet - can it be made public?
