Congrats on the win mate!

Cheers. Very happy with my season, spent most of it without my 2nd and 3rd round picks (Rodgers and Gronk) but luckily I worked the wire well and made things work.

In the end, only really my two redskins garçon and Morris left from my draft

Benimar

Congrats to Bluered. Well done.

Personally, not a good end to the season form me. Was in a playoff position going into the last week, but lost my last 3 to finish a very disappointing 10th,

My WRs killed me all season, leaving me far too reliant on Forte, Moreno and Ridley

I think you'll need to kick me out too.... was too late replying so I'm in div7 now

niall1811

Alright i went through Spongeys list and kicked all who shouldn't be there and PM'd the new players for their emails to invite them in. If you should be in the division and haven't heard from me let me know!

Benimar

Hi,

I am in Division 3 but havent heard anything

fatgav

I heard nothing either, but as I'm not changing leagues I presumed that was the reason. I seem to be in it this year (Pitches Be Crazy)

Division 3 Draft poll

http://vote.pollcode.com/93935641

niall1811

4 votes left to go and Monday at 10 pm is looking most likely unless there's a swing in the last few, will leave it open till tomorrow (Saturday) evening

niall1811

Alright that's all the votes in, Monday at 10 pm is the stand alone winner so I'll set the draft for then, time to get studying rosters and good luck Monday!

slowharry

I have plans to meet up with a mate for a beer or two on Monday so it looks like the Zebras will be putting our faith in autodraft for the third year in a row.

Draft lobby is open, I'm off tenth. Best of luck to ye lads!!

slowharry

managed to get back from the pub un time for the draft...this will be my first ever non autodraft first round pick

padraig_f

Picking 11th.

1. Montee Ball RB
2. Brandon Marshall WR
3. Michael Crabtree WR
4. T.Y. Hilton WR
5. Pierre Thomas RB
6. Stevan Ridley RB
7. Philip Rivers QB
8. Tyler Eifert TE
9. Antonio Gates TE
10. Malcolm Floyd WR
11. Buffallo Bills DEF
12. Jacquizz Rodgers RB
13. Marqise Lee WR
14. Robbie Gould K

Not mad about Montee Ball as my first round pick, but not an easy pick from 11th. Delighted to get Marshall in round 2.

Think I made a mistake in round 6 when I picked a bench RB, Stevan Ridley, ahead of my starting QB & TE. Was afraid of the drop-off in RB, and thought some value QBs/TEs might fall. The opposite happened, there was a total rush on QB/TE while RB stayed fairly deep.

Rest of round 6...

87. Jordan Cameron TE - CLE
88. Kyle Rudolph TE - MIN
89. Colin Kaepernick QB - SF
90. Jordan Reed TE - WAS
91. Jay Cutler QB - CHI
92. Jeremy Maclin WR - PHI
93. Robert Griffin III QB - WAS
94. Greg Olsen TE - CAR
95. Russell Wilson QB - SEA
96. Zach Ertz TE - PHI

Managed to get Rivers in round 7 to avert disaster, but probably would've been better getting Wilson/Kaepernick.

Not crazy about my team, but first few picks are probably solid.

matthew8

Ryan
Palmer

Foster
Tate
Anderson (I don't know who he is either)

Bryant
Garcon
Tavon Austin
James Jones
Miles Austin
Dobson

Clay

Seahawks

Bailey

Quite happy with QB, DEF and K. Happy with WR 1 & 2, 4 decent lottery tickets too. RBs are average. Clay below average. Slightly above average team imo.

Hazys

Just got an email grading my draft and i was like

Its Labor Day weekend on this side of the pond so i thought it was a Sunday night not Monday night. Bollix

Not a terrible autodraft tho

Chardee MacDennis

had connection issues last night, couldnt turn off autopick at one stage.

So I'm open to offers on all players but Charles. Looking to beef up my RBs.

slowharry

Great to get the season up and running althoughh the NFL ranked my team as a C- with a projected record of 3-10 and a finish of 16th which does not bode well for the Zebras.

Draft was a bit of a disaster on my end didn't think i would be there until teh last minute and then was a little typsy when it started so apologies for the delays as i kept getting flustered in making my picks. I compltetley ignoring RB and then panick before picking up Lamer Millar in the 5th round.

Well thats my excuse out of the way good luck to all except the Lambmunchers this weekend

Hanners

Ha ha thanks for that Slow Harry, I also got a sub par rating. 45% change of making playoffs with good roster management. Wooden spoon contest this weekend so!

slowharry

Well it looks like I get to hold on to the wooden spoon for another week. I was looking for Woodhead and Fitzgerald to combine for 10 points last night they could only rustle up 3.30 points.

Next up the number 1 seed Better than Awesome I'm going to have to be even better than better than awesome to get the W

Hanners

Yea was surprised that you didnt overtake me with last nights games. Some very low scoring from of last years top preformers across the league, Charles, Stacy, Demayrus Thomas

wawaman

anyone interested in Big Ben?

Hazys

Are the waivers set correctly? I thought we should only be able to claim people on Thursdays not Wednesdays?

I'm finding the waivers a bit odd myself. How I end up 14 on the list when 0 - 2 is a bit strange to say the least. Unless there's something I'm missing?

Wednesday is better I think, just put in your claims on tuesday before it opens

If you submit a waiver claim you go back to the bottom of the list, it doesn't go by record.

Its a bit annoying for me as its out of sync with the other leagues I'm in and with the rest of the Boards leagues i believe.

matthew8

Ffs Foster injured leaves me with no starting RB. Turning to Redskins 2nd and 3rd string. Good thing Ryan did nicely on Thursday.

And Young scores lol.

At least you got a chance to react, went to bed Thursday night having set my lineup only to find out Friday morning Roddy White was stood down at the last minute... Might still scrape a win but it will be tight...

You're nearly ahead already and later on it's Hauschka/Forte/Johnson against Clay/Seahawks. Clay is useless so it looks like I need a repeat of the super bowl for Denver and Seattle to win it.

Was not expecting that at all. Helu with 11 points. Clear fave now.

Zebras got our first win of the season agianst the Longford Patriots helped by a great Julio Jones performance and news of Adrian Petersons "parenting techniques" not reaching Longford

Hi guys

manafanas steelers here, need the commisoner to cancel a trade I accepted by accident a joke of a trade,

offered gordan and rianey for kniles davis and dalton. Pressed accept by accident rather than reject this crazy on sided trade so asking an obvious mistake be corrected.

how is it a joke of a trade?

according to this it's an extremely balanced trade!

http://fantasynews.cbssports.com/fantasyfootball/story/24721683/week-4-fantasy-trade-values

Davis - 10
Dalton - 8
Total: 18

Gordon - 10
Rainey - 7
Total: 17

I'm happy for it to be cancelled out of good will, but accepting trades by accident isnt cause for commish to cancel it.
