Just want to take the opportunity to 2nd this - my second season playing this comp & absolutely loved it.
Much of that has come from the amazing group of people on this forum with so much knowledge- @Rupert I thoroughly enjoy your posts, so much quality info
@Professor - you are the social media king with the amount of content you pass on
Going to make a special mention to my main trade advice guy @Connoisseur who has been invaluable in my ability to learn the game quickly.
Thanks guys, another thoroughly enjoyable season with 1 week to go, managed to win a Super Bowl in one of the leagues which I am pleasantly surprised about & can’t wait for next season

Congratulations to all the SuperBowl winners.
Unfortunately for me, I lost all my 4 Finals, 3 of my opponents had Chase playing. Captained Chubb in desperation to win a final, hoping he could score 51, like last week, but he only got 11. The gamble contributed to my -21 drop in ranking to 71.
2nd week in a row that my bench has out scored my starting players.
WRs - Diggs 15, Hill 14, Jefferson 17 & Bench - St.Brown 58, Chase 100
K - Kittle 7 & Bench - Pitts 15
(Hill and Chase were the 2 that I was most tossing up, so I trusted the 'Experts').
I used up my last trade to get a non-playing Captain Loop, as my original Captain loop was a non-playing Rams player, whose game was shifted last week to the useless Monday 5am slot. All my other players played.
I'm well stocked up with players for next week, so hopefully I will be able to climb up in the ranking to finish the season.
Overall, this NFL season was a great ride for me, the best I have done and I still consider myself a Novice with lots more to learn.
I joined the 'NFL 7plus Fantasy Challenge', but it is way too complicated for me. The proof is that I won $500 for top scoring one week, you see, I obviously didn't have the popular selections that week, as I have no idea who are the most popular 'Rushing Offence', 'Passing Offence' or 'Special Teams', pure luck!
Best of all, was this NFL Forum Group that I enjoyed so much. Looking forward to playing in the next NFL season.

I know this sounds silly but I got to ask, surely we can organise a SCS NFL fantasy (draft) league on Sleeper (app) or something for the regulars on here?
I’ve used it first time this year for NFL & now NBA and honestly hands down probably one of the best fantasy apps / layouts I’ve used for any sport
If anyone is currently in any Sleeper leagues please back me up here 😂

Yep. I'd be in that. I'd go for a keeper league too.
My only concern:
I have an old phone, i5, which I only use for emergency phone calls. It's a pre-paid and way too expensive for anything else.
So the draft platform would have to be accessible on lap top - running Windows 7.
[Hey, it's an old lap top but a perfectly serviceable 18.5in Toshiba which I don't intend to replace until I absolutely have to. Any decent replacement is going to cost and I'd rather defer that cost as long as I can.]

Similar to you @Rupert, but I was forced to upgrade. A couple of years ago my PC died, so now I have a Windows10 PC, but I refuse to upgrade it to Windows 11, because there is no guarantee that my old programs will work with it.
A month ago my Pixi 3G mobile phone started playing up, so I got a mid-range Smart Phone, which I mainly use for emergencies purposes as well (and QR coding). I have a pre-paid Aldi's $15 a year plan (Aldi uses Telstra, which is the only service that I can get at my place). My brother said that I have finally got out of the Stone Age.

If there are any issues, I wouldn't mind being a dual-coach, or your assitant coach.

Worst comes to worst I could always pay $125 and get a new Android phone from Telstra.
If you've never played draft - it's fun.
Just the fact that you would be the only coach with Henry, or Taylor, or Kupp, tends to make it more personal. And, at times, painful as when your A1 RB gets injured and misses the rest of the season!
I've tried to organise a draft, without success, for the last 4 or 5 seasons. I did manage to get one up about 6 years ago, but it was a massive trial to fill. People pulled out at the last minute and I had to stay up all night whilst I was in Nashville to actually get it over the line.
I was only in 14 draft leagues this season, so plenty of room for more.
I'm definitely up for a re-draft and/or keeper league on whatever platform.

In the past I've never had the time to do any proper research until about a week before the season starts.
Plus, I'd been a fan but never paid attention to the fantasy side of things.
Now, after 4 years of RDT fantasy I think I'm ready for draft.
I still don't have the depth of knowledge I think you need but........
