***EPL 2017-18 Fantasy League*** Drafting - Gianmarco finally picked (2 Viewers)

[gianmarco]

Btw, should start soon for next year so it's not a mad rush and I don't need proxy drafting.

I will say the scoring changes this year were fantastic, IMO, and I think we finally got it right. It feels really balanced and indicative of what the players are doing.

As for changes for next year, the last issue for me is the short rosters. If we can add 1-2 spots or at least add the equivalent of an IR spot or 2 for valuable players that are out an extended period, that would be ideal.

Thanks for running this again.

I'm out for next year. I'm literally out of my league here.

I think my draft was just as bad.

Sigurdsson
Coutinho
Baines
Giroud
Iheanacho
Ederson
Bertrand
C. Austin
Loftus-Cheek
Ndidi
Mustafi
Henderson
Mirallas
W. Reid
Darmian
Solanki
Xhaka

Bolded are the only ones who remained on my team all year.  I recently picked up Iheanacho, Loftus-Cheek, and Ndidi but they were dropped after a while from the start.

I was 1 win away from top 4......so yeah, the Perez blunder cost me  :(

We doing this again?  If so, why don't we start planning now as the draft should start in a month if we do.

Forza....ME....and Juve and Rona and @Kafka

If we don't, I have enough money to take my wife to a decent dinner.

I am okay with last year's rules carrying over. If people want to change them, give me a good reason.

Agree.

I did like the idea of the, "Injured Reserve," that @gianmarco mentioned. I understand that there would have to be wrinkles straightened out, however, it seems like a workable suggestion if Fantrax offers that option. If they don't, well, it is what it is.

This for me.

I’d be interested next year if you guys have openings.
