    Brady's my alma mater - paws off

    Hard to pick Patriots players beyond the obvious I reckon - unsure quite how we'll shape up this year. Certainly not interested in taking our defense I have to say!
    With a fit Brandon spikes and pat Chung we should be a lot better this year! especially with Hightower in there too. A lot of "experts" reckon we could go undefeated through the regular season (again).

    Here's a really good place to start - Matthew Berry is always an entertaining read during the season.

    http://sports.espn.go.com/fantasy/fo...2_TMRManifesto

    Basically try and grab an elite QB, fill up on RBs and WRs and use your last two picks on a kicker and defence

    That is a pity. No chance it can be changed to a 12 team league? Hate to see someone miss out.

    "experts" are "experts" for a reason.

    We look strong on paper but game time isn't paper.

    The Attendance at the Utd game was 7,267, taken from http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19035017

    the Draft order is:

    Gatecrasher Hibees - 7600
    Late hits - 7860
    Loch Ness Monsters - 8250
    Dundee Claymores - 8,412
    Revis Islanders - 8700
    The Aberdonian Seahawks - 9000
    Whodatters - 9100
    Haymakers Patriots - 9,287
    The Uphill Gardeners - 10,001
    BOSTON BAWBAGS - 11,969

    In the draft you will have to pick

    QB
    RB
    RB
    WR
    WR
    TE
    W/R
    K
    DEF

    and 6 Bench players/D of any position

    so the draft will start with round 1, the order will be 1 - 10 then in reverse order for round 2 then back to the original order in round 3 and so on until all positions are filled. When you pick please pick with the following information

    Team - Position - Name of pick

    Please try and keep an eye out for your turn the quicker we get through this part the better. Since i have 1st pick (
    ) I will start the draft tomorrow around 12:00.

    Does that mean I get picks 10 AND 11. If so, get in .

    I'm already getting confused though. Do we put on here who we're drafting or do we just log into the site?

    I thought we had the option of taking an extra WR in place of a RB if we want? or have i misread the rules?

    The middle is probably the worst place to be in this instance as the top 3 are always going to go all around you.

    Bugger.

    so im picking 7th and 14th, could be worse coulda been alot better, never took into account the arabs had the euro game on the thursday night, that would have been my choice to attend and give the hibs game a swerve, so the attendance suffered as a result

    We can pick any of those positions at any time right? Sounds stupid but they don't have to be in order?

    You can pick any position in any order as long as you fill the requirements by the end of the draft.

    Not really but if someone hasn't picked within half a day I will drop a PM, I wouldn't like to wait any longer than that but people have work and a life etc so getting it done right away isn't always an option. That's why iv been stressing folk keep an eye on the thread for their turn because this will be the most difficult part. Do you all think there should be say a 24 hr time limit?
