Is this a live draft - not automated?

It's live but you can set your preferences pre-draft (no of each position drafted, custom order of players, etc) so that if you go offline or can't make it, it will auto draft based on your ideas.

Well the Steelers season is over... BOTH LeVeon Bell and LeGarrette Blount arrested for marijuana possession and DUI. Not sure how the offense will manage without any running backs (for at least the first few games)...

First game is against the Browns. You don't need RBs against them, or a WR. or a QB. They'll find a way to mess it up.
They should have just chucked Johnny Football in there and see what happens. It's the only way the Browns can stop being the Browns.

Is this a live draft - not automated?

Yes, it's on Sunday at 6PM BST / 1 PM EST

fair enough. I don't come on here a lot anymore so only fair that regulars take part. It was fun while it lasted. Good luck everyone for the season.

No one is allowed to add former Furnish Flyers players pre-draft. They go into the draftable pool of players.

Here is your draft order.

Watching the pre-season games, the extra attention the refs are giving pass interference has gone too far. Almost every incompleted pass is being flagged for defensive pass interference. I know the NFL wants to see more catches, but they're rendering defence redundant.

Ah man, I've now had totally shite drafting positions in both my leagues and this one doesn't even snake in the first to second round ?

Is the first round simply players selecting their keepers hence why it doesn't snake ?

EDIT - having now seen the draft centre I understand it better. Somehow thought I wasn't getting a first round pick and first pick was 22nd lol. Dumbass.

Gonna be interesting, can't wait

I did some research last year, didn't help me at all.

I do a fair bit of research on an ongoing basis. Just love for NFL and FF in general I guess. Whether or not it actually helps well I have no idea !

Nervously excited - never done a 'live' draft before but got a plan on what round I'm drafting certain positions.

Bit of luck with certain players falling to me wouldn't go amiss either!

Thanks for posting the teams up DFF. Another good draft and great to have everyone present.

I was debating on DeMarco Murray or Jimmy Graham for the 9th pick and was pretty happy when I got Murray at 21 following the run on WR and QB. I feel like I have a deep team but no superstars apart from Graham so middle of the pack. Moomin, DFF, Mn Wx, Yids and Bowles are all really strong but I think I am most scared of White Hart Bobby Layne, that's a nasty looking side you've got there!

Good luck this season everyone!
