I do not have a timeline yet for the Draft Champions Leagues. As we transition from STATS to SportsHub Technologies, we can't miss a beat so we are still working with STATS to get our 2017 site live. That's the first step, so look for updated contest pages, Schedule of Events, Rules and more in the next month. Nothing is changing there and we'll have that content updated soon.

But the task of recreating every contest page, a new site, the new draft room and everything else for all three sports is going to take some time. Thankfully we will continue to work with STATS until we're ready to transition to the new site. I'm not sure at this point when that will be, so in turn I don't have a start date yet for the slow drafts. It may not be as early as past years.

I'll post when I know more. We have a lot of work ahead of us and some of it may not be done right away. I'll update as soon as I know more.

I will say that along with our NFFC Draft Champions leagues, we will be creating an entry-level Draft Champions contest this year as well. They will be private leagues with payouts just within the league. Look for more info on those very soon.

I think people are "chomping at the bit" to start the DC's...There's a few of us that would like to have FF as a year-round habit. Not asking for a whole lot here, after all, it's a win-win situation for everybody...Don't need any excuses, make it happen.

The only contact I've had from Greg or Tom is baseball email blasts. Of course I don't play fantasy baseball but it's good to know there are still out there lol. Seriously, I do wish they were more involved year around. Football has morphed into a 12 month past time and it's tough when there is nothing related to football here except trendsetters. Maybe we can get snake and billy going in some great discussions...??? (I"m just kidding.)'

Since there seems to be a total lack of interest (no response to my post) to have early fantasy football DC's from the NFFC, aw shucks, I have found another site that offers such at multiple price structures.
