Does everyone want to know where they are drafting pre-draft or just let ESPN randomize the draft positioning for us?

Do we want ESPN to set the draft positions or do you want me to use Random.org to set the draft positions??

Let me know

[gwilliams]

Let ESPN do it I reckon

I am with gwilliams. ESPN will pick a random order not long before the draft. I am in a league where the co commish drew the names out of a hat and posted the video on youtube so everyone could see the draft positions being picked. That was an interesting way of doing it and quite entertaining (even though I ended up with a terrible pick) but the random order on ESPN should be fine.


If we can get numbers up early next season I think we should announce the picks pre-draft using a website which will assign picks at random. That way we can actually trade draft picks with each other.

I have Romo in a 2 QB league and im worried. Mind you not aas worried as the guy with Alex Smith at QB1 and hasnt selected QB2 yet and we are in R11 of draft

[BratPack]

RB is kind of a barren wasteland for you Mat. If Run DMC goes down again you're screwed.

[Mat0369]

I don't like Romo at all, but for where I got him in the draft, I am pretty happy. He was the best player available by a long way. I also made sure to take Big Ben for that reason (plus there was no one else worth drafting at that pick so I went BPA). I am very thin at RB but if the starters can stay healthy, I will probably take out the league. I have DMC's handcuff in Goodson who was good when he started in Carolina due to injuries. I have some trade bait at WR and QB. I have already been offered Brees and Shonn Greene for Romo and DMC. If I take the trade I get the upgrade in Brees and downgrade to Greene (who is less likely to get injured) but I am still one RB short. I have a trade in the works for one of Green-Ellis, David Wilson, Mendenhall or Blount. Those are the guys he  will most likely part with (maybe not the law firm) and he is interested in Holmes. There are always some guys on waivers in terms of RB's and WR's due to injuries every season. I have the number one spot on the waiver wire so I am hoping to swipe one of those guys early. Morris has had a very good preseason so if he can get some value early I might be able to offload him for something decent.

[Mat0369]

My mate just informed me that one of the guys who has not joined is in the USA. He replied to him around this time yesterday but I am not taking any chances and I am sourcing one more player.
