...also, the draft was last night. Who knows. We did get David Akers - no brainer for us - Philly & good.
in a 10 team league, try to get 3 starting RBs....focus on the guys that wont share carries in the 1st 2 rrounds.... if you have 3 starting RBs and someone else has just 1, then you can get alot for him later....RBs are always the most consistant performers in FF and they go fast because of it....I never draft a K or Def until the end of the draft and I never carry more than 1 of each unless I have a dominant defense on its bye(if I had the Bears, I might sign a 2nd def for their bye, otherwise , I just cut the def I have and sign another)....
Hey Beef! I think your confused. Your just picking the winners of the football games in this league and ranking them according to how confident you are in the winner.

For those of you who have been playing, I apologize for not seeing a particular setting. I had noticed people dropping out, but wasn't sure why. I was told that if you missed getting picks in for the very first game, then you were locked out for the week. I got to looking tonight and saw that there is also a setting where you can allow picks up to 5 min. before each game. Now that I know that that setting exists, I have changed it to that setting and will make sure that that setting is in place for next season. I'm sorry that I didn't notice it earlier.
yea that screwed me last week i forgot about the thursday game... its cool though thanks for the change
