Little change to the draft idea, we started it as a slow draft, meaning there’s no clock. For those in the league, turn on notifications on sleeper app and it’ll tell ya when it’s your pick. Nobody will be timed out, but make a pick whenever you have a chance and we’ll get through it in a few days.

Whatever’s left to be drafted will be 60s clock from Wednesday evening

One of my mates has recommended 

Joe Burrow Quarter Back

Travis Kelce. Tight End

Open to any recommendations 


Burrow is currently injured.

Yep my mate said he'd be back though before start of the season 

Also having signed up it's the draft system.

That's not guaranteed - Injury designations are something that will wreck your head as a fantasy player!

In terms of what players you target, the first thing to understand is the scoring system of your league: whether it's PPR or not for example will help to determine your strategy or not. Also, the positions on your roster (Flex v no Flex) is also important as is the number of other people in your league. Playing in a ten team league is far easier than playing in a 14 team league for example. 
[Insert  Charlie Day Stressed Gif] LOL

Think it's PPR 

What's Flex vs no Flex mean LOL

It's a 12 person league I believe 

Speaking to a guy 8n office who's big into it he says prioritise going for the best available 

Running Back, wide Reciever, QB and Tight End in that order first as that's where the points will come from .

Doing it on Espn website if that narrows it down

If you manage to get those 4 you will be very, very hard bet. No chance you end up with them unless it’s a 2/3 man league 

Tbh at the moment I'm.not sure if it's a straight draft or you have a budget to select a team.

As said open to player recommendations I hear Dan Marino is good

We have some spots open so for new players, a few from last year haven't responded so it's open to new entrants. 

Here's the league code if anyone fancies joining. Make your team name the same as YBIG username so I can see who's joined

yeah one touchdown by one of them would almost be enough to win it for me. Such a low scoring final.
