What are "Vampire" Fantasy Football Leagues (and why are they so fun?)

I want to suck your blood.


🦇🧛


And by "suck your blood," I mean "steal your running back."


That's way more fun, and way less disgusting: Dracula is a weirdo (and so is Megan Fox/MGK I guess?)


If you're looking for fun, consider running or joining a "Vampire" fantasy football league this year.


"What's a Vampire league" you ask? I'm glad you did. 👇


Vampire fantasy football leagues are just like a "regular" fantasy football league, except it isn't at all.


Instead of 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 person in your league drafting their team, 𝗼𝗻𝗲 person is designated "the Vampire" and does not get to draft at all.


Instead, after every other team has selected their players for the year, the entire free agent pool locks for the rest of the season, leaving the Vampire to construct his or her team from whatever waiver wire fodder is leftover.


The trick, however, is that when the Vampire finally defeats an opponent, he or she gets to steal 𝗔𝗡𝗬 player they want from the opponent they defeated.


Justin Jefferson. Christian McCaffrey. Patrick Mahomes. Travis Kelce. ANYONE they want.


And if the Vampire wins again, they get to steal another player.


And another...


And another...


And another...


Before you know it, if you're not careful, the Vampire may suddenly have something like Patrick Mahomes, Christian McCaffrey, Austin Ekeler, Justin Jefferson, Ja'Marr Chase, Cooper Kupp, 𝗔𝗡𝗗 Travis Kelce on one team.


Sound difficult? It is.


Sound fun? It is.


Make sense? DM me if not.
