Fantasy Football team discussion thread

Any Fantasy Football players on Tildes? Post your team here with your league rules and let's rate and discuss each other's teams!

Side thought: Are there enough NFL fans here to warrant a Tildes league? That might be fun. There's enough time to draft before the season starts if enough people are interested.

    I have never done the whole fantasy football thing before but I would be open to trying it. I will no doubt be terrible at it though due to experience 😀

      Haha as long as you just follow a rankings cheat sheet you will usually do alright. If you even have a passive interest in the NFL then you should do just fine. Looks like we've got about 7 people...

      Looks like we've got about 7 people interested. I'd say the sweet spot is about 10 people so if a few more people express interested we should be set!

          Will do! We only need a few more people so it's looking pretty likely it will happen. If you know any other tilders that'd be interested have them comment on here so I can know. Once we have enough people I'll make another thread for the league.

        I'll set up a league if enough people express interest! We have about 7 now, and I'd say 10 is the sweet spot. But as long as we have somewhere between 8-12 people we should be good.

      We're pretty close. I'd like to have at least 10 teams if we can and we're currently at 7ish.

    I'd love to play in a FF league if I am not too late to get in.

    I'm a football fan but a horrible fantasy player. I've drafted Aaron Rodgers first round every year for the past forever, regardless of who is available based solely on loyalty. Then pretty much end up with a middle of the road team because I passed up on the big studs of the year for players I like more. Usually hit the waivers early to get the sleepers if any but I don't think I've ever made it to the end of a season without being tired of it. Not even bothering to try this year.

      A-Rodg has been going around the third round these days so reaching in the first isn't a terrible price to have a team you love to watch.

    I'm doing college fantasy football for the first time. I like CFB more than NFL, but it's so hard to get to know all the players. We're only doing P5, so it make it a little easier.

      I'll probably start watching more CFB someday. I only just recently got into the NFL in the last few years. I never used to watch any sports and now I bleed football.

      Sweet. We've got a few people now. I'd like to get 10 teams total if we can.

      Excellent! Let me know if you know any other tilders that are interested. We only need a few more.

    Drafting tomorrow. Haven't played in a few years, so I'm excited to do one again.

      I love FF. It has forced me to watch teams and players I normally wouldn't.

    I haven't drafted yet for any of my leagues yet. But I love fantasy football. I usually do okay.

      Well we've got a decent amount of people interested in a Tildes league if you're not already in too many this year. We've got about 7 people now including myself that would be interested. Let me know!

          Depends on what everyone else wants. I have accounts on all the major ones. The main league that I commish just switched to Sleeperbot, and we're all pretty happy with that. Once we've got enough people I'll hold it to a vote. Do you have any preference?

                Actually it looks good. I'm down, just let me know. I might end up auto-drafting do to other time constraints I have, but I'm down to play out the season.
