The draft is currently set for Sunday at 6pm. If that's the date could we push the draft back an hour or two as I finish work at 6pm.

I can work with either of those.

I'll no doubt only be staring at a screen wondering how one of my parlays got fucked by some DII football team against a Top-10 squad.

Happy to draft next Sunday. 6pm is prime putting toddler to bed time, so a bit later is better for me also.

Most fantasy leagues nowadays seem to have PPR on as default - worth considering? I'm struggling to find as many fantasy articles that work with our scoring system these days!

I think PPR has become the default with the expansion of the passing game.

I like it, adds value to offensive players but really brings WR value up.

The new trend now is super flex or 2QB because it truly makes QBs valuable in fantasy.

It’s just unnatural. We have 6pts for passing TDs, which is about my limit on the un-nerfing QBs front. Maybe I’ll come around to 2 QBs in another 17 years. 😄

PPR ✅

I have done the Superflext/2 QB thing......i personally hated it and i had 2 good QBs that i could play weekly.

Personally I prefer actually putting together a team as it is set up on the field. A flex with TE/WR/RB is plenty to allow you to account for 2 headed backfields, and frequent 2 TE and 3 WR sets

having done this since the 1980s, i am old school. no flex. a bunch of youngsters came in and voted TE or WR flex but we put a stop to adding a Rb. In a twelve team league that makes sense but not in a ten.

My favorite league had ten dollar transactions. At the end of the year, The pot was usually about four thousand dollars. the winner and the runner up would have to fund a super bowl party where everyone else could go and drink for free. It costs probably 1200 to $1500 So they still came out way ahead. Good luck to all.

Do you mean keeper? I think it has to be set an hour before the draft. But if you say who say who you meant to keep we can avoid drafting him in the first.

No it was just the watchlist but nevermind, it all went to pot as the draft went on as per ha!

Anyway, good luck everyone and sory @tobi for taking Pollard mate!
