Warpath Madden league (360)

Is the game itself going to have fantasy draft options? That's the only way you can really play a good season long tourney... they used to hold one at sharp shooters in manassas... it was pretty cool but guys kept losing interest (even though it was for good money) midway through the season and you had a lot of forfeits.

I'm not sure about any specifics, the intent here was to see if we have enough guys to get something going next week. Once we have the game and see what our options are we'll get it going.

Last time I change, but gonna go seahawks regardless!

My Madden ID is... Daseal

so eh... are the skins off limits?? Are we doing a fantasy draft? I'm in either way, but want to know the rules before i pick a team, unless that team is the skins (why do i feel like a douchebag for calling the skins on a skins board?)

I think when we tried to do this in the past, we all bowed in deference to Matty and he took the skins... Not sure if that goes for this time as well or not...

wait for the first update....it should be fun.....

I'm in... my screen name is MashaDanki. I'll take the Saints, if no one has claimed them yet...

I'm cool with whatever... If we dont do a fantasy draft I guess I'll take the steelers. If we do, I'll take anyone but dallas, new york (giants or jets) eagles, denver, tampa, or ne.

If you can do a fantasy draft I'm definitely down with that. Does anyone know if that's going to be possible?

Just found my answer, looks like the answer is "sort of"

IGN: Can we start our online league with a fantasy draft?

Ferwerda and Castorani: Yes, we created something this year called a profile draft. Essentially, on your machine, you'll pre-rank the entire list of NFL players and what round you'd like to draft them in. This is very similar to a fantasy football draft pre-rank system. Once your profile is set, the league will automatically run the draft and assign your players based on your preferences.

This is our first iteration of a draft, and we'll be looking to expand to a real-time experience in the future. However, this year, we decided it would be best to focus on the base experience and expand as we interact with our community and build features that everyone wants.
