NFFC Shark Pool Home Leagues! Let's Go - Draft Boards In 1st Post (2 Viewers)

Okay, all my draft pick #4 brothers and sisters...Ashton Jeanty!!! AMIRITE?!?!?!?!
Funny… @Ministry of Pain and I already had a little Pick 11 Strategy side chat :)
I fail to see what pick 11 has to do with Ashton Jeanty.
Funny that in MOST mocks I’ve done, Jeanty is there at 11. Except for this league, I guess.
I must apologize because, I understand the individual words you are using but when you string them together like that they make absolutely no sense. Do you smell burnt toast right now?

Unless Chaka takes him at 4, I think you'll not only get a chance to take him at 11, but probably also at 14. Lots of panic around the Raiders after that slop in Seattle the other night. Hell, after this post, I could see Chaka taking him in Rd 2!

Now all of the above could be entirely true. Or it could be my way of mind freaking Chaka into passing and letting me take him at 10. Or it could be my way of mind freaking Chaka into taking him at 4 via double reverse mind freak.

Oh, ####! You're picking #10? Wow, have I been confusing you for @DA RAIDERS this whole time?

Well... Nevermind

All of the draft picks were poisoned.

The Jeanty thread and pretty much every home league thread.

I thought @LawFitz had the #5 pick which, probably adds a layer of context now that he knows it. I have the #4 pick, and I've been riding him about how upset he is (will be) when I take Jeanty at #4.

It's a whole thing and Fitz was generous enough not to point out that it didn't entirely make sense at our draft positions. He's a good dude.

So, anyway... Try not to be too sad when I swipe Jeanty, Little Buddy.
 
Will be interesting how reflexive the picks between leagues will become. ADP lists were shat on in Uno last year and I suspect once a sleeper goes early in one league chains will react.

I'll tell you how reflexive the picks will be. I won't follow their draft at all and they will write songs on tree bark about my picks to share with family members for the holidays.

Are you saying the dozens of mocks I've been doing to prepare are all worthless?

Or maybe League Uno is full of guppies who think ADP stands for Always Draft Punters?

I figure league uno has so many sharks we will be round ahead of the other leagues by Wednesday.

Orrrrrrrrrr maybe we'll be taking the maximum clock to try and maximize information before picking. Hmmmmmm

I just plan to take Jeanty in every round.

Sounds like someone needs to reread the actual rules of the league. Also. Remember your posts represent the entire league. Check email for PDF file on how best to accomplish that. Ha ha

SPOOOOOONNN!!!
 
Sleeper working on Chrome for you guys? I can get to my leagues on the app on my phone but if I click the links in the first post, including my league, the draft board comes up and quickly goes to a black screen. I cleared cookies and logged back in and same thing.

Mine did that exact same thing about 10 minutes ago. I just tried again now and it was OK.

Thanks. It's working for me now too.
 

Love it.

One thing I'm seeing in these leagues like this and the also the $350 leagues is players moving off ADP. It's seen as "bold" but I think it's more just them having the confidence to go with what they see and not follow the crowd. Love it.
Same. I had a guy I really wanted to pull the trigger on at 1.09 in league 4 but I didn’t do it and went with Nabers instead… who I’m fine with but I just got a feeling about this other guy. We’ll see if he makes it back around.
 
@barackdhouse
I don't think you are on autodraft here.
I was on autodraft for sure. I set it before I left town, and it worked correctly. Both my 1st round picks in leagues 2 & 3 were from my queue and autopicked. I just got home and turned it off now.
Yes, but it picked after 4 hrs elapsed in both drafts
yeah that sucks and I'm sorry. I set it correctly yesterday before I left so not sure what else I can do there.

My guess is the system resets it for everyone when the draft initializes.
 
@fbghomeleagues heads up that it is pretty lame that I took the effort to set my queue, and went on auto-draft correctly before leaving town, but then I get back home and find out my pick took the whole 4 hours in both leagues. Is it because the system resets it when the draft starts? I would call that a bug and should be addressed. Just my ten cents. TIA

This would be something with Sleeper. I used the queue and autopick extensively with my SFB draft on Sleeper and it worked perfectly. We can let Sleeper know.

Right, that's what I meant. A bug with Sleeper. But the issue is that it may have reset when the draft started. Did you ever run into that in SFB? Setting it to autopick *prior* to the draft?

I'm trying to remember if I used it before the draft. Can't remember for sure. I used it a ton during the draft and it worked great making picks instantly.

yeah no issue *during* drafts that I am aware of.

We've ran into the same problem in the past where on another site, where a dynasty startup is about to happen and 1.01 owner says they have to bail that day but are not allowed to set to autopick until the draft actually initializes and 1.01 is On The Clock. I suspect it's the same with Sleeper. But not a big problem just I feel bad because people were waiting 4 hours for my pick and my expectation was that the CPU would do it for me immediately since I had set it to AUTO the day prior.

To be clear I got the guys I had in my queue and no one is complaining, just a strange setting quirk that is worth giving the feedback to Sleeper.

*perhaps a work-around would be for a commish/admin type like @fbghomeleagues to be authorized to make a selection on behalf of an owner? Don't know if that is a thing that can be done and probably an uglier rabbit hole than just waiting 4 hours
