    I'm looking to buy a draft kit, that comes with the drafting board and stickers with the players name on it.

    Does anyone here have any experience of buying this sort of thing online?

    Just looking for a recommendation, I've looked around some sites, but I'm not sure which one is worth buying.

    Like this for example: http://www.commishkitstore.com/draftboards.html

    Here, try this website, you can download a draft kit:

    Tell me if that's what you are looking for, or if you are actually looking to buy one?

    I think what the OP is looking for is a draft board for draft night.

    Personally I've never tried this, but it's probably cheaper to just hook up a laptop to a TV and do the live draft that way instead of buying a draft board. Of course I'm assuming the draft is taking place at someones house or at least in a place where you have access to set everything up.

    Oh gotcha.

    At my friends house, we usually just do it on a sheet of paper, we draft our players, and then he gets online and adds them onto the roster of each team.

    Yeah, thats exactly how we did it the past couple of years... just trying to have a board this year, so everyone can see who is going on what team...

    Cause there is always those dudes saying "hey was player x taken yet?" because that person wasn't paying attention and crossing off names as we went.

    And also a board looks kind of cool and organized.

    Most of those online draft kits are being updated every few days. You can even see info on that one where McNabb is on the Vikes or Kolb on the Cards. So keep checking back as the preseason goes on.


    Personally I am looking forward to Ochocinco moving up the receiver lists. Not because I want him, but he might get ranked above players I do want increasing the likelihood that I can get them.

    Reviving an old thread

    According to Forbes.com, fantasy football is one of the fastest growing industries in the US.

    I stumbled upon this post and wanted to share the website that I have used when looking for a fantasy football draft board. A few years ago, we would hook a computer up to a projector and run the draft by using Microsoft excel. After watching The League, we decided to buy a draft board with player labels, and we haven't gone back since! It's a pretty fun experience, I would highly recommend trying it if you can get the entire league in one room.

    My favorite website is, http://fantasyfootballdraftboard.net but there are many others out there. Good luck!

    Very old thread.

    But, we did ours @ Buffalo Wild Wings for the last season. They provided the stickers and board.
