My apologies, there has been a problem with the draft time on the Yahoo site, it will now start at 9pm Eastern (7pm Perth time)

It should be over in an hour.

Thanks.

 

[BeinPurplenGreen]

If you get a chance before the draft, go to the draft page on Yahoo and check to see your keepers are right.

I think I can make changes up until about an hour before the draft, let me know if there are mistakes.

So the draft is now 8.30 eastern time? Because that's what the site tells me. not 9pm.

 

[BeinPurplenGreen]

Yes, sorry, it got changed again - 8:30pm eastern (6:30pm Perth time) start now.
Happened when I set the keepers for some reason, it defaulted to a different time...

This league is a shambles

 

[drd23]

What's the O/U for number of people that are actually present for the start of the draft? 8? Less?

I prefer "randomly chaotic entertainment", thank you very much.
But yes, this hasn't been a great introduction to the live draft process at Yahoo...

Because that has been the only problem with his league

I'll go for 4 and a half- 4 of us from BF and some phantom drafter who pretends to be Southerntakeover or fuey or balmainforever

The only non-deliberate problem, at least...

 

[drd23]

Pretty sure Lenny wanted Burkhead as his keeper at 9.13 instead of Olsen at 10.4 BeinPurplenGreen

I've somehow ended up with JuJu.

 

[drd23]

Keeper are stuffed. Going to need to reschedule the draft again

 

[Oscarman]

Mine are OK

Sorry, don't know how that happened, let me see if I can change it...

 

[BeinPurplenGreen]

At least I will get the time correct...

Can you check yours, I thought I had put them all in correctly except for Ryan Mathews, who wasn't available....

 

[drd23]

Who is supposed to have JuJu?

 

[drd23]

Mine are fine.

Also, who wanted to keep Ryan Mathews? Is he even in the league any more?

 

[LennyHayes77]

JuJu is mine in the 12th. Breida 11th and Burkhead 9th.

 

[BeinPurplenGreen]

OK so that wasn't ideal...

Redraft on Tuesday night from 9pm Eastern (7pm Perth time), in the meantime can everyone please check the keepers here:

https://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/924153/draftresults

and tell me of any mistakes.

Also a reminder that the rules are:

• you can't keep first round picks from last year;
• you have to give up the pick before the round you took the keeper in last season.
  So if you took someone in round 4 last season, he costs you a third round pick to keep; and
• waiver wire/free agent pickups start at a 12th rounder and work up - so if you keep 3 players you took on waivers last season, they will cost you a 12th, 1n 11th and a 10th.

Please let me know of any changes to your keepers by 9pm tomorrow (Monday) night.

Sorry for the stuff ups...

 

[BeinPurplenGreen]

who wanted to keep Ryan Mathews? Is he even in the league any more?

See below...

My keepers:
Marvin Jones Jr. (9th this year)
Ryan Matthew (15th this year)

I'll only keep two

My bad on that - I did go looking for the rules in the previous pages when I picked mine (only my second year in) but couldn't find them, so assumed same round.

 

[LennyHayes77]

JuJu is mine in the 12th. Breida 11th and Burkhead 9th.

This. Someone else had JuJu and I didn't have Burkhead

Thanks to the fine nine that showed up live, see you again Tuesday night...
