You know there might be something to that. I'm not a big fan of their site but I did win at a healthy clip there last year. I just didn't invest much of anything. But nearly every bestball team I drafted cashed, so.......
There should be a little “button slider thingy” in the top right that has AUTO written beside it. Just tap that. That will put you on auto draft, which goes off your Queue until you run out of players. Then your DraftList then ADP.
I knocked out 5 of the $5 12 team fast drafts over the last few days and I agree. This team was drafted by a guy who apparently doesn't know how best ball works, or doesn't understand the starting lineup requirements, or whatever.pbandy1 said:
). In those 4 drafts I have gone AB (2) / Hopkins (2) in the first and K. Allen (3) / D. Freeman (1) in the second. So I started WR/WR in three of the drafts which really put me behind at RB. In all three drafts, K. Allen was the last WR in his tier so I grabbed him but I don't really like any of those teams all that much... because RBs come off the board so fast I always felt like I was reaching for RB. For example, these are my top 2 RBs in those leagues :X :
I know what you’re saying with “starters” but I’ve gotten away from looking at these teams like that. Cohen is one of my favourites. I really like him because you can pair him with Crowell. Cohen is my hopeful big game half and Crowell is “floor” half on a week to week basis.I've drafted 3 times from the 7th slot and once from the 6th (these are just $5 entries so keep that in mind
K. Drake + T. Cohen
K. Drake + D. Lewis
M. Ingram + R. Jones
This is the team I drafted out of the 6th slot (AB + D. Freeman) - much better balance and I didn't feel like I needed to reach for RBs - I really like these WRs.
Big Ben, J. Winston
D. Freeman, D. Guise, Kerryon Johnson, D. Johnson, L. Murray, B. Powell
AB, A. Thielen, M. Jones, M. Crabtree, E. Sanders, R. Mathews, M. Bryant
C. Brate, J. Butt, L. Willson
I like the team. I might have passed on Enunwa for an RB though. I like Enunwa but you’re WRs are really strong and those RBs are risky. However, at the point that Enunwa is going you’re grasping at straws with the RBs.
Bears fan but I am in the belief that Gordon is avoiding Hard Knocks and will be fine for the season. I see him at 1100 yards at the minimum. Assuming Tyrod starts over half the games, he is a really high floor guy with all those weapons, his rushing stats don't hurt. I think Hyde becomes a non-factor in the 2nd part of the season but that's just me since I'm a huge Chubb fan, and really like the interior of the line. Fits perfectly with Chubb's vision and inside the tackling ability.
Thanks. I think the draft room just doesn't work well on my Chromebook. I couldn't see the top-right of the screen at all. I saw it on my work desktop computer and fiddled with some settings to get it on the Chromebook too.
I drafted 7th and ended up in the same boat - chasing RBs. I also notice that it knocked me out of any chance at a decent TE, looks like you might have had the same problem.I've drafted 3 times from the 7th slot and once from the 6th (these are just $5 entries so keep that in mind

Hahahahaha. Do you have flip phone or something? Just kidding. I wouldn’t joking around with you if it was more than a dollar league.
My last 7 draft I started Barkley, M Thomas, Ertz. If you want to start Nuk, Thomas, Ertz then you just need to hammer RB after than. The nice thing about best ball is that it gives you more options because you don’t have to guess which of your group of RB2s to start.
I think if you contact jitterbug customer support they will tell you that if you dial #4357-63-001 you can draft the top player available according to ADP. Dial #4357-63-002 the second player available according to ADP.... and so on.
I’m on an iPhone SE, which is recent enough that it has the latest iOS, but has a small screen. I got this at the top of my screen for a recent pick in a slow draft:
Overall pretty well. I did 32 leagues. I won 9, finished second in five leagues. Unfortunately I finished third in 9 leagues as I fell off in a few. I was positive $1k.jabarony said:
That's always been my thinking as well, especially since QBs tend to be safer than RBs. Maybe it was just bad luck (or drafting) this year having Jimmy G and Alex Smith combo in a couple of those leagues. If I get a good TE, I'll just draft 2 TEs. If I don't get a top TE, I may go with 3 of them.
Technically, I didn't root for any of my guys from Best Ball leagues. I only rooted for my seasonal league teams and even then, I only really root for mostly my main league team. I guess it's not so bad because I mostly draft the same guys in most of my leagues. especially in auction leagues. Although I don't have them in every league, I know which players I mostly have and root for them. In Best Ball leagues, I just kept track of where I was in the standings every week.
I call it “diversifying emotional investment” LOL! I do about ten mangaged teams a year. It really helps take away the sting of having two horrendous bad beats by winning two titles. It evens out the good luck/bad luck you’ll inevitably experience in FF.
100% agree with this. I had never done more than 3 leagues until this year when I was in 8 and MyFBG made my time invested so much more efficient.
What? Say it ain’t so? What happened? I only did three best balls this year. Did horribly.
