Just go for it, yours was a mistake anyway then it's H18sry

I'll just take the Cowboys D then.

In a competitive league, almost every team has a weakness. It's almost impossible to build a team that is strong at all three core positions (quarterback, running back and wide receiver). Your backs and receivers look just fine. And while it's probably not accurate to describe a team with Matthew Stafford as weak at the position, we do think you're dangerously thin. As Tom Brady reminded us of in 2008, even quarterbacks with spotless health records can go down at any time. Thus the lack of depth at QB is what's keeping this team from getting our full endorsement.


So although this team isn't perfect (few are), it should still be a strong contender.


Players we particularly like on this team include Antonio Brown, Matthew Stafford, Cecil Shorts, DeMarco Murray, and LeSean McCoy. We have all these guys ranked ahead of where they are typically being drafted.


Bottom line:
With great inseason management, we think you have about a 85 percent chance of making the playoffs.
With good inseason management, we think you have about a 75 percent chance of making the playoffs.
With average inseason management, we think you have a 62 percent chance of making the playoffs.

Tempted to see what they say about Haymaker's team :greengrin

You're right. I am always getting the Dallas Patriots mixed up with the New England Patriots. You would think that one of those teams would change their nickname.

Are there any teams not represented in the draft? I do believe we only have one pick and I picked him. Really fills me with confidence for the season ahead :shotdowni.

Not sure what you mean? Every player that is eligible to play is in the draft (including players that might still yet be cut).

and this is why some people use cheat sheets - not just to get a list of players listed by rank but so we can score out players once they have been drafted.

I'm not being a DB, this is my second season of FF so I have a little bit of a head start over some people.

Plus, trash talking is half / all of the fun.

I think he means was there any teams who don't have a player picked by one of us - i.e., did anyone pick a Cincinnati player for example (I'm aware the answer is yes).

I think all teams are represented and the Jessies will have a few players picked up during FA if they have a decent start.

Ah, gotcha. That's a great question.

I wonder if this year will be a little better re: trades. I recall last year there were very few.

If it weren't for trash talking, we might actually have to be somewhat decent at this :greengrin

I've no idea who I play in Week 1 but they're going down - I've some redemption to seek after last year :greengrin

Gatecrasher will load the teams into the NFL fantasy page (nfl.com/fantasy) and it's up to us to deal with team selection, subs etc. The points are all dealt with automatically but any changes/bye week subs/trades etc are up to you.

I rated my team and the "experts" think my subs are better than my starters lol. I've seen less pish written on twitter :)

I'm sorting out the teams now but the NFL site doesn't have one of my picks listed, If its ok I'm going to swap tyrone walker with Jarret Boykin?

Just went ahead with that change, the guy is on the packers roster but not on the NFL fantasy? He even had 4 catches for about 80 yards last week!

Is there a transfer window, just noticed one of my players is out for the season

You can trade players and grab players off the waiver wire all the way through to week X (up to the playoffs, I think).

If a player is a free agent and if you're too of the waiver wire then you can get him for nothing. If other players (meaning, us, not nfl players) are above you on the waiver wire then they get first dibs. Trades happen between two teams and have to :
1) be agreeable to both players,
2) be agreed upon by all other players in the league - to prevent unfair trades happening.

Do you mean Alexander? If so, I told you about him ages ago. :)

I take it the new players are all signed up with NFL.COM and ready to go?

Anyone got any predictions for the season? I'll go first,

I predict that Haymaker is totally Donald Ducked :violin:.

I had a worse team last season DH and if my memory is correct... Did I not pump you both times?

Oh, my RB options are poor... I had the same as last year and... Mmm... Think I pumped you?!

1) be agreeable to both players,
2) be agreed upon by all other players in the league - to prevent unfair trades happening.

:confused: cheers but not got a clue what you mean :greengrin

I was looking to see if anyone was amenable to a trade with for a WR with a RB but I notice there are only really 2 of us who have any real depth at RB.

FAs and waivers don't exactly get the juices going either TBH!

I actually fancy Ayrshire to do quite well this year - he's picked well and has some decent depth to his squad :agree:

I don't think theres anything from stopping you, a couple of people have already been dipping into the free agents.

What's confusing about it? You're being offered a trade by another player - go to your page and either accept/decline it.

I'm not being a smart-ass, I'm just genuinely not sure what's confusing about it?

The email is crystal clear in what's happening and what you need to do? :confused:

Incidentally, NOLA, could you set your team up already - I want to see which RBs I might be able to tempt away from you for a decent QB :greengrin

I didn't know you were allowed to trade players, I noticed you have traded with players on the open market, how do you do that as I want shot of an injured player and can't find out how to do it

When you're looking at your team, along the scroll-bar at the top are a lot of options - click on either "Add" (which has all of the free agents) or "Trade" (and then set the filter to "all available", thus showing you the better players who are available on waivers (which is like a priority list, so the worst team gets first dibs)).

didnt take long for someone to post that :greengrin

The depth of available RBs on either Waiver or FA is truly depressing...

Plenty of kickers though. ;)

Quite surprised I just picked up Mark Ingram on a free transfer? He's obviously not a starter but as a backup, he's probably worth about 120 points per season as he gets most of NOs goalmouth action!

Are you drunk Haymaker?! Ingram for Mikel Leshoure?!

To be honest, I didnt rate ingram last year and I doubt he will get numbers. Leshoure is just a body at the mo.

You interested in a running back? Your situation looks pretty dire. If you're desperate I'd be willing to package something in exchange for Gronkowski. He's pretty useless up until October and I'll throw in Bennett if you're not comfortable with one tight end.

Charles and McCoy are obviously going nowhere. Murray would require a bit of negotiating but the rest are all up for discussion.

Ben Tate and Pierre Thomas and Andre Brown are looking like decent backups. :)

That's probably how the Lions view him too! Major injury problems the past few years and won't get much of a sniff in a pass-happy offense where Reggie Bush will get the majority of the runs.

Open to negotiations for either Matthews, Tate or Brown?

Bilal Powell is supposedly the Jets #1 rb in front of chris ivory, but noone picked him I think?..if I was in the market for a rb he'd make sense.

He's only starting ahead of Ivory because he has a slight hamstring knock apparently.

Maybe Mathews but no for the other two. At least not yet.

You know the score, suggest a trade and let's see what happens.

By the way...

EVERYONE: when someone suggests a trade with you, please respond (accept or reject) ASAP. It's good FF etiquette. :)

True, he probably wont be in my team come opening day.

I have a stronger receiving corps and you have a stronger RB staff - bit of a stalemate :greengrin

I'm not giving Manning up and I doubt Aaron Dobson will be enough for you to give up Matthews (even though he'll probably be our #1 wide-out, he's unproven).

That's how I read it. Or at least it better be. Not convinced about either of them to be fair though.

Finsagogo - Hi8sry

QB - Peyton Manning (Denver)
RB - Arian Foster (Houston)
RB - Lamar Millar (Miami)
WR - Torrey Smith (Baltimore)
WR - Danario Alexander (San Diego)
TE - Kyle Rudolph (Minnesota)
W/R - BenJarvus Green-Ellis (Cincinnati)
K - Sebastian Janikowski (Oakland)
DEF - Houston Texans
Bench - Michael Vick (Philadelphia)
Bench - Ronnie Hillman (Denver)
Bench - DuJuan Harris (Green Bay)
Bench - Stephen Williams (Seattle)
Bench - Brandon Stokely (Baltimore)
Bench - Daniel Thomas (Miami)

I'm aware you've since traded out Alexander Ronnie but you've not had the luckiest of starts with DuJuan Harris also now out for the season!

Just for the record (though I'm sure it might have been obvious anyway) Dundee Claymores have relocated to a new city and changed their name accordingly :greengrin

Surrey Storm ready for action!

I'm moving back to Edinburgh next month, might have to do a franchise rebranding as well then!

I'm doing a franchise change because my name is unimaginative and ***** :greengrin
