Granted the overall talent pool is pretty good, so you had to be 72 or better overall to crack that top 40. And there are some solid skill position guys just below that.
Still, it's worth seeing how this plays out in the long haul.

Defenses should keep gaining on offenses if the drafts are like this. Not one QB, RB or WR in the top 40 players.Granted the overall talent pool is pretty good, so you had to be 72 or better overall to crack that top 40. And there are some solid skill position guys just below that.

But this league plays well. Nothing is easy because we are all pretty even so you have to be creative. The game play seems much more realistic to me on all the big stuff, long passing, kicking, tackling, 2 min offense etc.
Once we add the new playbooks I think this is going to really be fun

Honestly, I hate the weather in this league, it seems like I always play in the rain. I am having to change my offensive philosophy just to compete and I hate every player on my team except my SE, RB and rookie QB.But this league plays well.

I am seriously looking forward to the playbooks, the ability to do things like choosing to run to a side of my o-line that blocks better for the run or toward a weakness in my opponent's d-line.
What I am most looking forward to though is the ability to set my defense according to the formation the offense is in and the down and distance. Right now it's a little frustrating to know that my opponent could be lined up in a shotgun and we could be trotting out a 4-3 defense because the system chose it for us. Of course the new playbooks allowing for a run out of the shotgun will be a nice strategic wrinkle.

Not too concerned about the weather thing but I completely agree that the league seems to play realistically. No more tecmo bowl style, high flying games. Hopefully the future drafts will keep the style of play similar to this but I'm happy so far. No team seems completely solid from top to bottom, which I think is how it should be.
