NFL (since 2016)

Post crystal falace »

"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

"Think im going to change the format of the league to standard rather than PPR, seems like nonsense to get a full point for every catch you make. Also where was everybody at with regards to chucking in like 10-20 quid for this to hopefully maintain people's attention a bit better?"

"The only real ""mystery"" is where the hell Ray's white suit went - was never found after that night! Maybe he sold it to Barry White? :-)"

"The whole Lewis-murder trial issue is hugely misrepresented by a lot of folk. Lewis was charged with murder alongside his two friends, the trial began with all three of them in the dock, then he flipped and pleaded guilty to providing a false statement to the police after the fight - and took an obstruction of justice charge. Lewis' two mates went on to be tried - and they both walked free after the jury took just a couple of hours to decide that the two deaths happened in self-defence. The police aren't looking for anybody else in relation to the deaths. I don't know the ins and outs of the whole fight - but it seems to be accepted by a lot of people that Lewis wasn't even involved in the physical bit. The police found one of the victims' blood in his limo, but all three men had been inside the car. The only real ""mystery"" is where the hell Ray's white suit went - was never found after that night!"

I've seen him loads on Skip and Shannon. Seems like a lovely fella. Didn't know anything about him being a bit of a Fred West.

"Not quite sure what other system it can do for them tbh, you usually end up with a very lopsided roster if you have autoselect though. What do people think to it being PPR (point per reception) this year? Seems to be the standard for most leagues nowadays but im happy to do it either way"

@Crystal - is there any way you can change how auto-select works? If you could penalise players who dont attend the draft (rather than having them auto select the next best available) it might encourage attendance. I'm guessing you cant though...

"NFL has found that Tyreek Hill has not violated any rules and will return to the team for training camp, even though he's previously plead guilty to assaulting this same woman while she was pregnant with his child and there is now a voice recording of him threatening to hurt both her and the child. But heaven forbid he'd smoke some weed and get an instant 4 game suspension"

I downloaded the app. I dont know if this makes drafting easier than the website.
