Okay. Two tickets to the men's singles tennis final have been snapped up, and I've traded the other three for Formula One tickets.
So, the next THREE people to sign up, to this spectacularly entertaining and challenging fantasy football league, will get paddock passes to the 2012 British Grand Prix, at beautiful Silverstone!
Hurry! Sign up NOW!!!

Well there goes either Aaron Rodgers or Tom Brady right off the bat >.<
Does the draft order change at all? Like for Sheri getting the #1 pick in round 1, would she get the last pick in round 2? Or is that order the same throughout the draft?

This is the case. It's a snake draft. I have last pick in Round 1, but first pick in Round 2,

Thought so, Greg. Cheers.
Oh and uh Thomas? You do realize that Tebow is considered the #2 QB for the Jets, right? Which means he won't see much playing time unless the starter, Mark Sanchez, doesn't perform. Keep an eye on the pre-season games, and you'll see what I mean ;-)

Yes! Number 5 pick! That means that I'm guaranteed to get one of the 5 big fantasy players this season (shame to those outside the top 5, unless one of the other 4 really screws up). Too bad I may not be there for the whole of the draft.

True, but with five players who are likely to do much better than everyone else, it's a great advantage to be one of the top 5 picks. In another league I entered, I had the 8th pick and somehow managed to get one of the top 5 (granted, this player's value wasn't nearly as high due to the ESPN point system's differences).

Tebow will end up as the starter again. ALL HE DOES IS WIN!

I can pretty much guarantee that this will happen. However, let me say that if I were a team owner and had to pick between Sanchez and Tebow, I'd immediately sell the team. Sanchez is a very mediocre quarterback, and Tebow is, according to the new Total QBR stat, the third worst quarterback in the NFL (Sanchez was only 2 positions better).

I could care less what the QBR says. Tebow is a winner and he is clutch.

Umm, Marco, you do realize that this is a 12 team league. I also would not anticipate Brady falling to the 6th position since he is one of my "Big Five" for the upcoming year.
Quote ( Marco Battaglia @ August 14th 2012,16:21:36 ) weak in WR
So is the team that I have in my other league. If you are strong enough in the other positions, you can make up for weakness at WR.

I would venture to say that the success of that mock team is dependent entirely on the Patriots (Brady Welker combo)... but thats not a bad pair to bet on.

It was just a mock draft ... the real one will be more competitive, I think.
