First year I did FFL (1997), ESPN didn’t do live drafts - -you had to rank players in each category (“NFC QBs,” “AFC WRs”) and had no say in which category you’d get first preference in. You’d just wake up one day and, boom, here’s your team.
First drafted player I can remember drafting was Jamal Anderson 1999. Had 410 carries, was #2 RB the year before; injured quickly in 1999. But I drafted WRs Marvin Harrison and Jimmy Smith in rounds 3-4, grabbed FA QB Kurt Warner before week 1 (since my drafted Trent Green was injured), and … it all worked out.
