Are those draft times final?
Placeholders since we don't have everyone lined up yet. We usually do it after week 3 of the pre-season or so since week 4 is useless in terms of fantasy scouting.

any time during the week at night! Weekends are way too tricky...
Well, we usually did it Sundays since there was no football going on and most people have Sundays clear for football around that time. I set the NeoGaffers league for Monday evening. The only problem we have is that Least Coasters have to get up early for work the next day and Best Coasters don't get home 'till after 6 or 7.

If Ngata is a 97 DE, he's gonna be insane at his natural position.

Ravens
Bengals

Bengals two best offensive players aren't on their roster. Andy Dalton isn't too bad though!

Top RBs:
Adrian Peterson 97
Chris Johnson 96
Jamaal Charles 95
MJD 95
Steven Jackson 94

I'm still bummed that the Seahawks didn't grab Charles when he was freely available.

Do players appreciate/deteriorate in terms of skill from year to year? Dalton will get better if I keep his stats manageable, right?

They do, but in years past stats haven't seemed to determine the outcome of those changes, lol.

Yep. They go up and down depending. Although im not sure if we ever found an exact formula to how and why. But generally if you do well with young players they will get better. Especially the AI created rookies in later years

I'm not sure Leron James could become anymore OP.

stats play a part but their secret "potential" rating seemed to be the biggest factor

Well, at least you win SBs, I think I've won my division 90% of the time in these leagues and I've only made it to one or two SBs. :(

What do you mean alphabetical? As in, only the Bears and the 49ers can beat me out in a tie breaker?

Yea..it ignored division head to heads and even head to head with common opponents and rather decided to go with a-z.

Yeah, and I had one of the worst team names. It's not that way anymore, though.

I can't tell if I'm signed in. Do we not have access to the league page until it starts or something?
You're not signed in.

Leron James was the only reason I kept playing. I knew I was gonna lose but it was fun to break off stupid long runs once or twice a game.
