Calling all Oatcake NFL fans, do any of you play NFL Fantasy Football? We've got a space up for grabs in the Oatcake Fantasy League if you're interested.
We've been running it for a number of years now, we all take it very seriously despite there being nothing on-the-line but Oatcake bragging rights. All we ask is that you love the NFL & you're a regular Oatcake poster who will make sure your team is updated each gameday, and that you turn up for the 'live draft' which takes place just before the season starts.
If you're interested & would like to join then pop a reply down below. Cheers.

If a decent laugh and tense at times there are 9 we need 10 and you know most if not all of those who play on here. I suppose it's if you like NFL but we're by no means experts just a bit of fun. Cobham won the superbowl last year he beat me in the final not that I'm bitter or anything 😫 It takes about 1hr on draft day then 5mins each week to sort your team selection out for each game plus any incidental time you put in to trade or replace any players you may want to replace through injury etc.

If you can’t get anyone else and you need another for the league maybe I will. Edit for PS…I have never fantasy leagued before. For any sport. Like the other fellas have said it really does add to the enjoyment of watching NFL each weekend, you'll be glued to both your TV screen & your fantasy team as the points update in real time. Don't worry that you've not played before as it's real easy to pick-up & you'll be hooked before you know it. (And trust me, you WILL get hooked on it!) As a breif description you basically login on draft day & we're all given a number in the draft order, we then take it in turns to draft which QBs/RBs/WRs/TEs/K/DEF we want, everyone is only available once so if I'm No1 in the draft & I pick Derrick Henry then that's it, he's gone, no-one else can pick him (Unlike the horrible Premier League Fantasy Football where every team in the league have all got Salah/Kane/De Bruyne etc...) So basically you just need a basic knowledge of the NFL & which offensive players are good (The DEF just comes as a unit, so you'd for example just pick the entire Broncos defence). Honestly it's something you'll enjoy, people on this very thread like Cobham & Franklin were in your position two years ago (That was when we last needed some new blood in the league) They both had their doubts at the time but if you ask them now I'm sure they'll tell you how glad they are they signed up. And don't worry that you might be bad at it, in Cobham's first season he finished dead last, in his second season he won the Superbowl! Anyway have a think about it & let me know whether you're interested or not, there's no rush yet as the season is still a few months away. If you do want to join though then we can get you into the Oatcake group PM we have going where we can talk more indepth about how it all works & what not. (And you can do 'mock drafts' on the website right now to give you an idea of how it all works).

TDC is the admin for it he would know the answer to that but in the couple of years I've been in it was 10.

Welcome aboard Badge. do you have an NFL team you follow? Cheers Cobs👍🏻 Not yet but I’ve already started doing some research. I lost touch with the sport a good ten years ago so hoping this league will get me right back into it. Had a soft spot for Green Bay Packers back then, maybe I’ll stick with em🤔

i’ve been on this 2 years now and Joseph does a great job running it and keeping everyone interested. I can’t believe I won last year after a great second half run to the final from Franklin.
