To answer some questions:

Draft -- You will draft where the Jaguars picked but can trade picks in this draft to move around.

Free Agency -- You can bid on and "sign" free agents. Players and their contracts are a package deal so you are bidding on the player and the contract together and will be subject to the salary cap.

Trades -- You can trade players and current season draft picks, but subject to the salary cap, so there are dead cap hits if you trade guys with big contracts.

Practice Squad -- You can sign players to practice squad and poach players from other teams' practice squads. For this, the rules are a little simplified compared to the NFL. You can sign a player to your PS from another team's PS, but anyone else can then sign them from yours. So if you want to "protect" that player, you have to put him on your active roster. They aren't using the rules about the player having to be put on the active roster for a certain number of weeks or restrictions on how many times a player can be elevated, etc.

Scoring includes all positions and is calibrated to the relative values of the positions (as established based on contracts and use of draft resources) by position.

The first drafts will be in July for leagues that fill and lock by July 1 so ideally you'd be in by then. There is a later draft in August for leagues that fill later, but that gives you much less time to develop your roster through FA and trades.

If there aren’t enough people for a full Duval Pride private league you can play in a public league and still play with others from this forum (or other friends) using the Find a Friend feature. If you do that, you will play against your friends but also people you don't know (yet).

The FAQs on the site are pretty extensive and give more details.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
