NFBC Message Boards

I really think the Cutline is a great addition to the overall brand! Have you noticed people making adjustments to the way they draft? How would you adjust considering it's a breakdown of points instead of the neccesary balance in Roto. Have you thought at all about how your stategies would differ?

That would probably be the solution if we were to program it that way. It basically would allow owners to replace someone injured before or during the week and replace him on the weekend if you had a pitching replacement on Reserve. But it would still allow owners to start a DL pitcher and replace h...

Who are some of your biggest breakout and bust potentials?

How about someone going undrafted in the majority of NFBC drafts you think could be an impact FA?

Looking at the signups I noticed that there are three 100 dollar leagues scheduled for this weekend and none of them are close to filling. I don't know what everyone's schedules look like ( I know that mine unfortunately isn't flexible this weekend at all), but if we consolidated into one league we'...

I know it it was too late to start an official league like this for this season, but some of you expressed interest. I ended up signing up for the 10 team 100 dollar satellite league on this Sunday 3/9 with my friend's son. He's done the research, made his lists, and couldn't be more excited. There ...

Let's get this filled....it's killing me not knowing my draft spot a day before the draft!!!

It seemed like interest was luke warm for this season and most people needed to wait on doing it another year. I still think the league would be fun knowing everyone was partnered up with a son/daugher, niece/nephew, etc. I ended up taking the advice of someone on the boards and just signed up for a...

Maybe I'm reading this wrong, and I'm not in any slow drafts this year, but did using all 8 hours of their slow draft clock just get compared to domestic violence and pedophilia???? Wow....talk about taking something overboard.

I'm a teacher, I should know better than to exclude the daughters!

What's the earliest time you'd be able to do?

I'm not sure if anything like this has been brought up before, but I figured it was worth seeing if anyone was interested in putting something together. I know when I was younger, before fantasy sports became an industry and it was just my dad and his friends drafting in the basement and checking th...

Greg/Tom, Any chance we can get a weekend Draft Champions Express league for sometime in March? My buddy and I usually do an OC team together, but funds are tight and thought this format would be fun to play in. Anyway to see if there's interest in a Saturday or Sunday afternoon draft? Mike Yeah we...

I was looking to sign up for a draft champions league, but my buddy and I draft together and can only get together on Saturday (afternoon or night) or Sunday afternoons. Greg, is there any chance we could put a draft together for one weekend in March? Right now they are only drafting on Friday / Sun...

I think this sounds like a really great idea and a great option for people who are in multiple leagues. The best ball concept will and only 3 FA periods will eliminate a lot of the time that goes into this league while still creating a great deal of strategy needed to compete. I actually think in so...

Tom/Greg,

I signed up to pay for my 2 satellite leagues by credit card, but they haven't filled yet. I was thinking at this point it would be easier for me to send you guys a check for both leagues. Is that still possible? If not no big deal.

Been participating in slow drafts now for the last few years, and the time it takes for people to draft always seems to cause frustration for owners. It seems like a large part of the frustration may be due to drafting from different time zones. Being on the East Coast, I can sense the frustration f...

Hey Greg,

I'll take a spot in this draft. Can I pay for this by check?

Mike

Optioned today to the minors. Should make all those Jonathan Herrera owners happy after spending big FA dollars to pick him up.

You had 4 of 5 locked up by round 9 and all of them filled by round 12. That forced you to take substandard corners and middle infielders generally. Your team might have been better off by substituting a couple of those early OF picks to a first baseman and shortstop and taking some higher ceiling o...

Believe me...I never meant to start an argument of any sorts. I really just wanted to know what more experienced players thought. I think it's a ridiculous accomplishment to get 92% of the total points no matter who you're competing against. To be in a tough league and do it is even more incredible.

Since I started the thread today I thought I would at least post the team I was speaking of. Feel free to critique. Think it's a pretty balanced team. Average is a little low but won't kill me and I need League to keep the job all season. Otherwise I came out relatively pleased. Know we have to pick...

Don't be sorry about the length of reply...it gave me something to read at work! It wasn't so much of a complaint as a general wondering. Believe me I'll be happy to compete and potentially win my league, which I think my team has a chance to do. (I don't necessarily feel that way in my sat. leagues...

Been doing satellite leagues the last few years and did the Online Championship last night. Question for some veteran players... Is it possible to win the overall prize in this or the Main Event without drafting in a weak league where players fall farther than they should? My partner and I are pleas...

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah this was a 125 satellite. Have a few more coming up, hopefully they're a little more status quo. I had no intentions of taking 3 SP in the first 8 rounds, I just didn't like the value of the hitters that were left. After that run of SPs ending at round 6 hardly any got ...
