The WCOFF one featured a $200 draft cap. A "snake draft" is a standard fantasy football draft where the first round proceeds with team 1 selecting first, then team 2, team 3, and so on, finishing with the last team (usually team 12). Unlike the NFL draft, the order then goes in reverse in the second round, so that team #12 also has the 13th pick, and team #1 picks first and then 24th. It's called a "snake draft" because of the slithering pattern this format creates when viewed on a draft board or piece of paper. yay fantasy geeeeeks. PS: I put up a 4-0 week in Week 2, including dropping a bomb on my league in WCOFF. Lee: The starting bankroll for auction drafts varies. The WCOFF one featured a $200 draft cap.

2 questions. Also I know nothing about fantasy football so if my questions are basic my apologies.

In an auction draft you start with $1000 to bid?

Why do they call it a snake draft?

I thought I was about to pull off the coup of the century letting him linger back there. Killed me. I know that pain my friend, Rashida beat my max bid for him at the very end of the Auction.

I only got him in 2 out of 4 leagues. I have no shot without Blue Blur. :( Seven: The only thing that matters about my WCOFF draft at this point is that I failed to get Chris Johnson.

We all easily concede to you when it comes to poker, but when it comes to fantasy football, there are several of your readers who can more than hold their own in any league (and have the Rings to prove it). Let us judge your deep and balanced team my friend. Post your roster. Dragonball, you know you can’t tell that story without listing your team.
