The new season is almost upon us and Josh Capps from the Patriots Podcast on the First and Ten Network is here to look at what lies ahead in New England.
It didn’t take long for most of us to write off New England once Tom Brady secured a move to Tampa, but as the weeks have passed, confidence only appears to be growing in Foxboro.
The negotiations over a new collective bargaining agreement are ongoing, but the biggest change that looks set to happen is the addition of a 17th regular season game, while trimming the preseason to just three.
So as I am sure most of you are aware, I run a lot of fantasy football leagues every season to raise money for charity. We have supported Myeloma UK the past two seasons and raised a phenomenal amount of money. We will do that again this year but there are going to be some changes to our leagues.
Our draft lottery has taken place and there has been a big shake up in the order for next season’s rookie draft.
We do our lottery each season. It was brought in as both an anti-tanking measure and just something to make things a bit different and I think it has done both.
The First and Ten Cup is the fourth contest run on FirstandTen.co.uk and is made up of 20 divisions. The winner will be the team with the highest score across the leagues.
We are doing these leagues to raise money for Myeloma UK. You can find out more and donate here: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/fatffb
We are adding four new dynasty leagues this season to take us to a total of 12. Don’t miss out!
This year we are asking all our entrants to make an optional donation to Myeloma UK. A charity that is very close to our hearts here at First and Ten. You can read more about Myeloma UK here: https://www.myeloma.org.uk/
Once again we want to give people new to the game a chance to test the waters of fantasy football without the pressure of jumping in with players who have played for years.

The First and Ten Cup was a huge success last season and we are bringing it back once again. For those of you that love drafting this is the league for you. There are two drafts, including a midseason reset.
Dave Gray brings us his first and final mock draft of the season. There’s plenty of moves in this one as we look ahead to tonight’s draft
I have held off on mock drafts this year. Partly due to time constraints but mainly because I have done so many in the past that by mock draft 4.0 it all just gets a bit muddled and I am finding ways to make it more interesting.
Draft week is almost upon us and Ash Till (@tillsa9909s) – co-host of the Chargers Podcast on the First and Ten Network – brings you his first mock draft of 2021. Here are his top 50 picks.
Dallas Cowboys 4/5 (Bet365)
Projection – 1st
2019 saw a talent laden Dallas roster miss out on the playoffs, a criminal underachievement which led to a change at the helm with Super Bowl winner Mike McCarthy taking over from Jason Garrett; McCarthy must be feeling pretty good about what he has inherited.
