Hope I get a decent draft slot this time.

I'll toss my hat back in the ring this season.

Sure, why not?

If y’all need an extra I’ll join this year.

Much for Chuck's enjoyment when I draft a tight end in the first round, I'm back for more punishment.

Not if I'm drafting in front of you, tough guy. Jared Cook is all mine.
-
By the way, since Navin wants to play, if he doesn't end up replacing a former owner who is understandably intimidated by our collective fantasy acumen, I'm happy to open it up to two new managers. Mainly because I spent most of last year feeling like I had too many good players and found myself wishing we could water the league down some.
But really, I'd be happy to add more owners if it comes to that.

Second chuck’s motion if the bench size is cut down. It’s already too big. You fantasy mavens hoard multiple TEs and kickers.

I find that Chuck aand I share common ground on this issue. Who'd a thunk it? Expansion I think is a good idea.

OWA FF & SCOTUS FTW!
-
I have no problem with expansion, so Mark and Navin can both play. Right now, I’m still waiting to hear from utastro and Nate if they want to play again. Depending on their response, we will either have a 12 or 14 team league. Either way, based on the reduced bench suggestions, I’m lowering ours from six to four.

Uh, no to SCOTUS expansion, Mr. Roosevelt.

Currently all 3 work for me. I travel a fair bit for work so that could change, If Im unable to attend I have someone that will draft for me. My preference would be one of the Monday dates, but I will find a way to make any of the days work.

Anyday is good for me and my robot.

All three work, but I would prefer not to have Spetember 2.

Can't do Sept 2. The others will work for me and my assistant GM

8/26 is my preferred, but I can try to make any of them work

As far as I know right now, all three dates are fine with me.

Is this a final final? Can I schedule it?

Yes, it’s final. Go ahead and schedule it.

Draft is tomorrow night. When do we find out our draft position?

I am going to be delirious with glee when Hap robodrafts Zeke and Andrew Luck.

And Lamar Miller

Yahoo creates the random order a couple of hours before the draft.

Thanks!
Scoring question. It says you get 6 points for a kick or punt return. Is that just for your team defense, or if you have a WR that also returns kicks, would he get points for it?
-
Go ahead and draft Tyreek Hill and see how long he remains eligible.
-
Im going, Zeke, Tyreek, Melvin Gordon, Kareem Hunt, Gronk with my 1st 5

Sounds good. You can probably get a guy like Gabbert in the 6th. Don't want to draft a qb too high.

The player would get the six points along with the Defense/Special Teams unit he plays for.

I was thinking about D Watson as my fist pick.

That's a proven strategy.

Also, I just went into the settings and made some adjustments for kickers and defenses.
For kickers, I removed negative points for missed field goals and extra points. You just don’t get points if they miss. For defenses, I tweaked the points you get based on how many points they allow. Shutouts are now worth 14, 1-6 =10 points, 7-13=7 points, 14-20=3 points, 21-27=0 points, 28-34=-3 points, 35 or more=-7 points
With low scoring games rare, I felt like rewarding defenses that do play really well that day is a good move.
-
I'm drafting Luck with my first pick. I have a good feeling about him this year.
-
I'm going Justin Tucker first before any of you goons can sweep him out from under me like you did last year. That or Jason Witten. I feel like he's due for a bounce-back year.
-
14 teams this year? I can’t wait to draft CJ Fiedorowicz from a deep pool of TEs.

12 teams
-
Also, who is who in the league? Guess I need to come up with a team name, not just my screen name here,

I am Hammond Eggs-perennial league doormat.
I made a robo pick because my DirecTV internet politely wet down about 45 minutes before the draft and stayed out until after midnight. Maybe the Gods intervened and saved me from myself.

I wouldn’t sweat it. The rating system shined praise on Sphinx’s draft and noted that his best pick was Eric Ebron. I am not down on Sphinx’s team but rating the best pick on highest rated team as the poster boy for touchdown regression whose QB retired 2 weeks before the season may suggest the robot is huffing paint thinner.

Robo got a D+. That seems unfair. Why shouldn't robo produce AN AVERAGE DRAFT?

Maybe it's meant to be relative and your fellow owners are all OUTSTANDING.
Yahoo was puzzled why I might have drafted Johnson who, as far as they're concerned, will languish on the bench in Cleveland.
HAHA, WRONG YOU ARE! HE WILL LANGUISH ON THE FIELD IN HOUSTON! HAHAHAHA!

I think the auto-writer/grader was saying that the gap between the average draft position of previous Yahoo Fantasy Football drafts (77) and when Ebron was selected in our draft (113) somehow made him the "best" pick. Anyway, I waived Ebron and picked up Delaney Walker today

This is exactly that, for instance my "best" pickup was listed as AJ Green and he might be a steal but he may also miss half the season

I never felt good about Cleveland's defense but all the research I looked at told me to pick them. Or maybe Tennessee's a better team than I reckoned.

Who had Foley starting?

Ha! So much for draft grades being worth a fuck. Looks like I'll finish with the lowest points total of all for week one. Ha!

My draftbot (graded itself D+) garnered me around 86, but about five points too little.

Dream Crushers vs Navin, is the most point I've seen in a couple of years. 124.06 to 131.71. Tough for Dream Crushers to score that much and lose.

Hate to see it...

Saquon Barkley is out for up to 8 weeks so I’m feeling great about that overall first pick

Crazy week. One guys defense outscored another guys whole team.

My defense needs work. I'm leading the league in points allowed. SMH

Wow, a TE battle for the ages: Navin's Vance McDonald edges out my Will Dissly 033 points to 0.00 points.
-
Aaron Rogers almost single handedly beat me this week. 45 points is crazy.

I got the first pick in the draft and it’s the worst team I’ve ever assembled.

No idea how this game is going to end but it's my Patriots D vs Fredia's Tom Brady and the D is kicking ass. The Patriots have this game well in hand. Brady just needs to hand off the next 20 snaps or so.

As long as he keeps handing it off to Michel, not White.

I think 144 points is an OWA league record.
