NFBC 1-Hour Draft Champions Deadline: Tuesday March 29th

[Greg Ambrosius]

Now that the 99-day lockout is finally over, it's time to plan our schedule for the last 28 drafting days of the season. We've had a record start to the NFBC Draft Champions format, but obviously things slowed down over the last week or two. That being said, I think we can still have a record year for this format if all goes well down the stretch.

But we need to set a deadline for when these leagues can get started so that all of them finish before Opening Day. Here's the new schedule for each format, so plan accordingly:

NFBC $150 & $400 4-Hour Draft Champions: We will take signups through Friday, March 18th and try to start all of these leagues on that day. That would give everyone 20+ days to complete their 50 rounds, which is more than enough time since we lower the clock to 2 hours starting in Round 31. Plan accordingly as the last signups will be taken on that day.

NFBC $150 & $400 2-Hour Draft Champions: We will take signups through Friday, March 25th and try to start all of these leagues on that day. That would give everyone 13+ days to complete their 50 rounds, which is more than enough time since we lower the clock to 1 hour starting in Round 31. Plan accordingly.

NFBC $150 & $400 1-Hour and 30-Minute Draft Champions: We will take signups through Tuesday, March 29th and try to start all of these leagues on that day. That would give everyone 8+ days to complete their 50 rounds, which seems doable. Plan accordingly.

Draft Champions Express Leagues: These are scheduled more frequently starting this week as we now have them every night of the week. We may not fill every single one, but DC Express leagues will be available every night going forward.

Hope this helps. Plan accordingly and thanks for making this format such a big hit even during the lockout. The overall prize pool has a chance to grow this year and hopefully we can pay even more teams in 2022. Let's grow, grow, grow this great format together.

Just a heads up that Friday is the last day that we will start the NFBC $150 and $400 4-Hour Draft Champions leagues. That will give us 20 days to finish those up and if any of them are going too slow we will quickly shorten the time below 4 hours per pick. Good luck in this format and we'll keep the 2-Hour, 1-Hour, 30-Minute and Express leagues open after Friday.

Thanks all.

Can you transfer me to the 2 hour draft if the 4 hour doesn't fill?
