2019 Fantasy Lacrosse Draft

[PALax11]

Well...

That Cornell defense just became a steal!!!

"Australian face-off man Tim Graham was accepted by the school yesterday and will join @CornellLacrosse next month with four years of eligibility. A product of @MalvernLacrosse in Melbourne, he's been strong with the Aussie National Team, splitting with Baptiste over the summer."

This kid is a stud and may be the best face-off man in the country come this spring. Absolutely dominated the World Games.

Well played....well played...

tried to make fantasy lacrosse as realistic as he can. Giving the worst teams the best picks in each round is not realistic. I would actually prefer a more random draft order.

The best teams picking first (which is very realistic to D1 Lacrosse) was killed years back. Personally, I liked that. But i was out voted and... I'm open to random.

I would like to revisit this. I'm for random.

[nclaxin]

I am also in favor of random. Muahahahahaha

per usual, we'll put it to a vote.

That may be the steal of the draft if he pans out to be anything like the others receiving First Team All - Long Island (Laviano, Gray, DeSimone, Licciardi, Lulley, etc...)

Great HUGE upside pick.

Nichtern has 71 points on the season and has tied the Army single season assist record of 45 assists as a freshman. I think it's now safe to say you were right, Brendan Nichtern was the steal of the draft!

Arguably robbed of Patriot league rookie of the year because Chase Scanlan is a stud middie on a better team. The difference is Nichtern is Army's #1, no questions asked. Chase, while amazing, has the benefit of being surrounded by more talent, Spencer for starters. I hope Brendan takes it personally.

I am excited for the next 3 years My team is YOUNG, and will compete for Championships!

Anyone going to the game today? I didn't plan on going but, after going to the women's game yesterday, having 2nd thoughts.

Odds we can start a PLL/MLL fantasy league?

[admin]

How about PLL/MLL and you keep the players you drafted for the NCAA Fantasy League?

Oh man that sounds interesting!

That does sounds quite cool! Your seniors just role over, first few years squads would be small and then once you get 15 roster size, you just have to choose players to drop if you want any of your new seniors in, no adds apart from your seniors from college only! so current players in the MLL/PLL would be off limits?

yeah. i think as soon as we start drafting within the Pro Leagues, it becomes a different animal. grabbing Robertson as a sophomore because we missed him in the draft as a freshman still has him connected to HS, keeps this thing... i dunno... light... maybe more personal or intimate or something along these lines. it's ridiculous but when we draft one of these high scholers and follow him for 4 years, it's like forging a relationship with him. It's little different than our relationship. heck, at least i know what the players look like. but when we're drafting a 29 year-old Canadian Box Player who i know nothing about except he hangs out on the crease and puts up Points, i dunno. just changes something. just not the same. for me.

[nclaxin]

So....When are we making decisions on draft order, etc. for next season? When will the first pick be?

[admin]

First need to make decision on Draft Order. Last Place to First (per the past several years) or Picked out of a Hat?

Unless we’re going to redraft the whole league, I’d vote for last to first.

Also, I'd like to go back to drafting in one night in January or February. Can we have a poll for these? And a last day to vote.

Unless we’re going to redraft the whole league...

What does that mean?

fine by me.

Meaning like everyone starts with a blank team and every player is available. I know that’s not what we want to do (at least I think it is) so I think we go last to first.
