    Hmm, do not like giving up a 4th rounder. Although given how **** Kwesi is at drafting probably doesn't matter anyway.

    When Addison returns from suspension, we'll have a quite frankly ridiculous WR trio.

    The NFC North has just got tougher, Micah Parsons traded to the Packers, who give him a huge extension. Crap.

    On the plus side, Packers have had to give up a lot - 2 1st round picks plus Kenny Clark.

    Ouch. I’m glad Parsons has left the East as he was the only Cowboys great player.

    Packers are a hell of a prospect now.

    NFC North is probably the toughest division now, if it wasn't before this. Every team in it has something going for them.

    Definitely agree. I’m glad it weakens the East.

    Yeah good addition for the Packers unfortunately. Should be them and the Lions battling out for the NFC north this year

    Prediction: Lions will flop. Mixture of losing both their OC and DC plus a tough schedule and regression from Goff. I may look a complete prat in a few months time but I think they'll struggle.

    I prefer Redzone, so hope that’s still about. I only watch a game if the eagles are involved, otherwise Redzone it is

    My fantasy draft is tonight. Normally Justin would be a dead certe for my first pick but with a rookie QB (essentially) would that be risky?

    Yes, always take running back in the first round

    My drafts are done already. Gone with 2 teams in case one tanks badly. My first team has Allen and McCarthy as QB's (think JJ will be really good and would rather have him in reserve than someone else nabbing him). Henry, Kamara and Hubbard as RB's, Sutton, Harrison and Metcalf as WR's with Kittle as TE. Didn't get a high pick so couldn't get Chase, Jefferson or Barkley.

    My second team had the number 1 pick so I nabbed Chase with Burrow/McCarthy as QB's, Jacobs, Hampton, Pollard and Harvey as RB's, Williams, Metcalf as other WR's and Bowers as my TE.

    Unless Chase is available - he's a cheat code.

    Thanks for the tips, Barkley it is then.

    I usually use the NFL draft website but there's all sorts of internal errors, on the app but it's being slow and I'm not sure how reliable it will be...

    Might end up being a disastrous draft.

    Well it crashed a couple of times, but it only autopicked once, for my penultimate pick. Chase, JJ and Barkley all went before my first pick so here's my team:

    Burrow
    J Taylor
    A Jones
    St. Brown
    Olave
    J Smith (who did well for me a few times when he came in last season, Kelce went like 3 picks before *cries*)
    Some dude called Hunter who plays for the Jags, I panic picked because my app crashed and I had seconds left to pick when I got back
    Reichard as a kicker
    Vikings defence

    Bench:

    Herbert
    Addison (yeah I know he's suspended but when he comes back...)
    Mixon (yeah I know he's injured but when he comes back...)
    Little, the jags kicker, mainly because I heard about him kicking 70 yards recently
    Some guy called Downs who plays for the Colts... that was my autopick, I was intending to pick a back up defence so will probably pick up a defence for him, not sure which though...
    And with my final pick I had to go for JJ McCarthy

    Edit: Oh dear, I'm projected to win zero games... That would be mortifying. I might create another team just because this one is apparently a disaster.
