    there is an option on xbox live

    Sorry, I should have explained better :pac:

    What I meant was do you's have a strategy? Say I'll try get player x with my first pick and if he's gone then a different specific player. Or do you just mark say the top 5 guys for each position and then see who is the best available when it comes to your pick?

    No, you pick in order of 1-infinity basically and the highest rated player you have selected thats still available will be drafted for you

    There are still a few teams over the 49 roster limit.
    This is your last warning...

    what's the policy on picking up free agents dropped by the CPU if people didn't trim their squads?

    Alsong as the trade is mentioned somewhere on the forum we'll be ok.

    Raoul, can you use the LM site to put FAs onto teams?

    Not at the moment anyway. Maybe after the draft.

    the league manager needs to be updated right after the draft, that should sort all the trades. So people aren't drafting unneeded free agents thinking there weak in a position.

    Happy with your drafts then lads?

    Reasonably happy with mine. Missed out on my first two choices but they were never going to fall to 24, and then I managed to get my third choice who is a HB that's a slight bit better than my current backup, Tolbert (OVR 82).

    Second round then I had traded away, but with my third round selections I managed to get some FB cover, and a speedy TE.

    After that then was just scraps.

    My RE Spencer is a BEAST

    All over the place, tackles flying in

    Hard luck Paully, I know you wanted him :p

    I rated him second best player in the draft yet he fell to pick 18, score

    I had a good draft, got the top HB to fight Mathews for his place. Managed to get numbers 1/8/14 from my draft board that I set up the night before, and have a CB 80 to come from GreenBay. Got a SS 77 who has excellent stats despite being only rated 77. And backup Rolb for cover. All in all a good draft and well ran. A big thanks to Eamonn who helped people who needed it and allowed most to get some picks that they wanted.:)
