They didn't have a random draft button, to change up the order so I'm going to leave it as such. I think everyone will be happy with the way the draft is structured. Every other round is reverse order, so the last pick in the 1st round, gets the first pick in the second round. I won't be there tonight, but I hope it goes well.

No one can come back from a non top 4 pick.

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

Yeah they can; what are you talking about? I was 6th or 7th out of 12 last year and got to second place. The only reason I lost the championship was because Kerry Collins (on the other team) got like 34 points and then both my running backs were benched on their NFL teams.

Have you guys used ea sports before for a ffl? All my drafts in the past have been brick and mortar style at someone's house.
I went in last night and made some changes to my default draft order but I'm assuming we'll be able to make more changes tonight at 9pm ET. How do we go about chatting during the draft? How do we override our picks? How do we make trades?
Sorry about all the questions, I just want to make sure things go smoothly for me tonight.

nope, never gone in. Haven't changed my current list.
I'm destined to overcome the 8th pick to pwn j00 n00bs.
Since everyone knows Manning, Priest and LT will get injuried in the preseason.

Good question about the chatting. You would have to think that they would have some sort of chat tool tied into the draft.
I do know that if you're there, your list won't come into play. There's a little thing where you can check 'auto draft' so I assume that clicking this will make it draft via your list, but other than that you will be drafting on your own.
And, uh, I was looking at the talent pool around the 32-33 pick area...my second best player is going to stink. Go LT.

No; the worst spot is where I am: 11th; the quality players are gone, and I don't get the main benefit of the wraparound.
Man...this is gonna be HARD to overcome, but I'm gonna try my best. Ain't gonna let y'all just STEAMROLL me now.

wait; they don't have a chat applet when we're drafting? How is that possible?
Even cheap yahoo has that junk, and realgenius had to PAY to use our league...dang.

Read the draft FAQ if you have any questions. Good Luck everyone. And trust me people in the middle can do very well for themselves.

How do you add/ drop players? I'm trying using the "add/drop" drop down option from transactions.
Definitely ain't working...

I still hope the Lewis for McNabb deal works out.

They all know me as a small timer, but that's about to change.
