Lets get this party started. As a reminder, here are the rules: Picks: Teams will pick in a snake order with 8 hours between picks. If you think you will miss your pick, send a few selections to someone to make your pick for you. If 8 hours passes without a pick being made, all future picks will be skipped until that team makes a selection. If your pick is skipped, you may make those picks at any time. The draft order will be randomly selected using this tool. Rosters: Your squad must include 18 players, two of which will be keepers. The rest is up to you. At the conclusion of the draft, you will be requested to submit a starting 11, bench, and any details about playing style you'd like. The draft will officially start FRIDAY, MAY 7 AT 12 PM EST. You may pick before then, but the 8 hour time limits will start at that time. This thread is only for draft picks, keep discussion to the discussion thread.
