![]() You aren’t paying for licensing fees or koozies or smacktalk stickers. That said, we would grant that the premium you are paying is being put into the kit itself (sturdy board, huge labels). We don’t know what your entry fee is for your league, but this goes a long way towards eating up a lot of a typical entry fee for ours and we didn’t even get into the high-end stuff that was available. This all said, if you want options – look no further.Īs expensive as it gets. The reviewer who purchased this kit commented that “It was like taking the SAT”. While we suppose there is something to be said for offering a wide variety, this bordered on absurd. There are literally hundreds of possible combinations among 4 different sizes of boards, each with as many as 14 different sub-selections and 9 different “Extras” among them. So dizzying that it made it a painstaking process. The ordering process entails a dizzying amount of options, each with its own step up in price. Though the bye week was sorely understated on a label this big, the sheer size of the label compensated enough where it made the bye week sufficiently readable from a distance. With the exception of the use of a dark grey color that blended a bit with the black color, the colors were well-coordinated and adequately distinguishable from one another. These were the biggest labels that we reviewed. Again, we suspect that perhaps the paper is so heavy that it weights the creases such that it weakens them. We are not sure if it had anything to do with it, or how common it is among all of their kits – but you had to really work to get the board open without tearing it. Maybe the most heavy weight paper material on the market. Perusing the reviews from verified buyers on their site – it looks like we aren’t the only ones that give this fantasy football draft kit such high praise.īoard Material: Heavy and sturdy. Ordering was a breeze – streamlined with the click of a single “Buy now” button had us right to the cart and out. To boot – they have easily the cleanest website that we ordered from, complete with an 800 number to call. In our view, you are getting more than you pay for. We are just not sure what more you can ask of a product designed to make draft night easier. For $27.50, which is among the least expensive on the market. As a whole, this kit checks every box there is: Board Size, Board Material, Label Size, label Imprinting, Magic Marker. One.įolks, we have a winner - and it’s not even close. While Rob Kelley managed 4 carries for 8 yards last year and is currently unemployed he was on our 2018 list of draft-able players. We were able to come up with one: Rob Kelley RB WAS. In an attempt to be as discerning as possible of this label set, we took the extra step and attempted to identify any missing fantasy football relevant player labels. Far and away the largest display of that number among its competitors. The color coordination is spot-on with easily distinguishable colors from a distance and they set the gold standard when it comes to giving the size of the bye week number the respect it deserves. Feels sturdy and heavy and it opens with no sticking or tearing. Although draft night never stopped being fun, the draft board-less chaos that would ensue was insufferable. And believe it or not - for a period of time, we did it without any draft board and player label kit - if you can imagine such a thing. In our view, it is the best part of the season and no matter who’s spouse was put off or employment was being put at risk – we made time for draft night. ![]() One of the things that our league has always managed to maintain is having a live draft – every year. Our league can even lay claim to having Doug Martin’s 272 yards and 4 touchdown performance in 2012 go to waste, as he was riding the bench of a team owner, who to this day has never quite gotten over it – and is steadily reminded of it. These 22 years have witnessed the suffering of the the lows of the Kordell Stewarts of 1997 and the highs of the 2003 Jamal Lewis’s, and every Madden Curse in between. Our fantasy football league has remained intact for longer than we’d care to admit: 22 years.
