This 2,372 word story was a request by patron MattThoms84 who suggested: "Fantasy football drafters become players they draft".
None of them could actually remember who had been the first to suggest that they participate in a fantasy football league for the upcoming NFL season, but the five friends were all incredibly excited to begin the drafting process. Brody, Shaun, Nathan, Jay and Matt were an unlikely group of friends who had bonded over one specific love: hunky football players. The sport itself was entertaining, of course, but like any good form of entertainment it was absolutely elevated by the presence of handsome men with strong muscles and confident attitudes. None of them had actually participated in a fantasy league before, but it seemed like good fun and gave them all another reason to actually invest in the game rather than just thirst after the players.
Brody had been the one to set up the league through the NFL’s site, and had been left frustrated by how user-unfriendly the site turned out to be. He clicked through the various web-pages and selected all of the default options until he finally reached a screen that confirmed his league had been created. The small text underneath that relieving headline declared that their fantasy league was being sponsored by a “Ripanaugh Betting Society”, but Brody thought nothing of it as they weren’t planning to include any sort of cash prize. At most, the losers would each buy the winner a drink when they next went to a bar once the season was over.
Despite it all being in the name of fun, all five guys had a competitive edge and were wanting to draft the best team possible while also including their personal favourite football players and crushes. Although separated by state lines, the five friends were able to gather together in a shared Discord server in order to make their draft picks in real time. A drafting order had been randomly generated by the site for them: Shaun got the first pick, then Matt, Brody, Jay and finally Nathan. It seemed clear that some big names would be going in the first round, and each of them silently hoped that their prime choice wouldn’t be selected before their turn.
Shaun, the oldest of the friendship group, was glad for the distraction that the fantasy league would provide him from his work. His bosses had been piling more and more responsibility on top of him and there were days when he seriously thought about quitting. Chatting with his friends online was one of the only things that kept him going on a day-to-day basis, so he was glad that they were all on board with participating in a friendly competition. There were plenty of choices that Shaun could make with his first pick, and he’d fretted over it for quite some time, before he finally settled on an incredibly talented wide receiver playing for the Pittsburgh Steelers, JuJu Smith-Schuster. Sure, JuJu could come across as a bit cocky and self-absorbed, but it gave him a certain edge and truthfully Shaun longed to have that sort of confidence in himself too.
As soon as Shaun clicked down on the ‘Submit’ option to lock in his choice, he received a brief electrical jolt in response. It travelled through him within an instant, putting every hair on its end and prompting his heart to begin racing. For several seconds Shaun remained completely frozen in place, chest rising and falling with heavy breaths, before he finally felt settled again. Looking down at the keyboard to see if there were any exposed wires or signs of damage though revealed something else that was much more surprising: the skin of his hands and forearms was rapidly darkening! Moments later he would discover that much more was happening, as his forearms tensed and revealed tough muscle underneath. His undefined upper arms blossomed into firm biceps and triceps that caused the seams of his sleeves to begin splitting.
While Shaun’s transformation was getting underway, Matt was busy making his own first round choice for the draft. He was the most recent inclusion to the friendship group and wanted to impress them with his tactical approach to the fantasy league. It seemed clear to him that he’d benefit most from drafting a running back to his team, and Derrick Henry of the Tennessee Titans seemed like an incredibly safe bet considering the numbers he’d put up during the previous football season. Like Shaun though, as soon as Matt had locked in his selection, his pale skin began to shift into a darker shade and his slender build started to pack on pounds of muscle, forcing him to expand in every direction.
Matt’s lower half in particular saw quite the rapid improvement, his pants falling victim to the sudden increase of mass and muscularity. He had never been one for running, but as his quads and calves exploded with newfound power, Matt felt like he could sprint as fast as a cheetah! His feet were both stretched out and widened to give him a better base, making him thankful that he hadn’t been wearing shoes at the time of making his choices. There was no doubt they would have joined his pants in ending up as tatters!
Several cities away, Brody was carefully considering who should be his first pick. His initial gut instinct had been to go for Baker Mayfield, the player he was most attracted to, but considering Mayfield’s rather spotty performance in the previous two seasons, he wasn’t sure it was the wisest choice. As such, he decided to follow Shaun’s thinking and draft a wide receiver with his first choice, and he knew precisely who he wanted! Cooper Kupp of the LA Rams was not just a blond-haired and blue-eyed pretty boy, he was also one of the most gifted players at his position and had long been a subject of Brody’s thirst.
Like the previous two drafters, Brody received a static shock after submitting his choice and the current affected him so suddenly that his manhood stirred and began to stiffen. There was little to notice about the subtle shifting of the tone of his skin, so it was the rapid tightening of his shirt that alerted Brody to his body’s inexplicable transformation. He watched in amazement as the flat surface of his chest was overcome by the rising of two proud pectorals. Lifting the garment up, Brody was further captivated by the sculpting of a six-pack of abs as the softness around his midsection vanished, prompting the muscles to become even further pronounced. He’d always wanted to have abs and pecs but he’d never been able to commit to a proper eating plan; now it seemed like he wouldn’t ever have to!
Completely unaware of the changes that his online friends were currently experiencing, Jay was instead wrapped up in relief that nobody had stolen his first choice from him. Unlike the others, he’d known who his first choice would be immediately. Sure, maybe Rob Gronkowski wasn’t going to be grabbing a massive amount of points for him, but Jay knew for certain that he would have resented anybody who drafted the legendary Gronk before him. Hell, the Bucs tight end was the main reason he had even started to pay attention to football in the first place! The hunky crossover star was chief among all of Jay’s crushes, so it was mere seconds after Brody made his Cooper Kupp pick that Jay selected Gronkowski’s name and hammered down on the ‘submit’ button.
While waiting for his turn to come up, Jay had busied himself by looking through galleries on the Bucs website that showed Gronk during training camp, his muscles all pumped up and covered in a beautiful layer of sweat. The spectacular sheen on the athlete’s titanesque body had awoken Jay’s arousal and he was already hard when it was finally his turn on the clock. After submitting his choice though, his manhood engorged to brand new levels: harder, thicker, longer. It was impossible for Jay to think clearly through the sudden influx of erotic sensations, all he knew was that he had to jerk off right then and there!
Pushing down the waistband of his boxers and allowing his throbbing cock to spring free, Jay quickly used the pre-cum dripping from the tip to lube his shaft up. As he began to massage the proud length, his body proceeded to swell and inflate with the hard muscles of a professional athlete, like a balloon being pumped full of helium. His asian-american features disappeared behind the subtle lightening of his skin, and the rearranging of his facial features to give him a much stronger brow, larger nose and a square jawline. By the time he rocketed towards an incoming climax, Jay had completed his transformation into Rob Gronkowski and was filling his room with the arousing soundtrack of deep and desperate moans and grunts.
Nathan had been disheartened to have been placed as the last person to make his first round pick in the draft, but despite the talent that had already been selected, he knew there were still plenty of incredible choices for him. He wasn’t the most knowledgeable about the sport, so his focus was to load his fantasy team up with the highest-rated hunks on the availability list. To both his surprise and delight, the highest rated tight end was still free for selection. Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs was enough of a big name that Nathan had heard of him even before falling down the football rabbit hole, and the tight end was precisely his type too: tall, muscular, funny and confident. His stats from the previous season were also incredibly good, so there was really no reason as to why he shouldn’t be the first man on Nathan’s team!
As with all four of his friends before him, clicking on Kelce’s name to lock in his choice caused a sudden electrical jolt from Nathan’s computer mouse. He cursed under his breath and snapped his hand back, before breaking into a quiet laugh. That was unexpected. Clicking back through to the Discord server he occupied with his friends, Nathan was surprised to see that not a single comment had been posted since they had started the drafting process, which was rather unusual. He had just started typing up a query as to what they were all doing while they waited for their next pick when his body tensed up all at once and his vision began to swim. It was as if he’d just stumbled out of a rollercoaster ride, his stomach caught in knots and his heart thundering. Am I dying? Oh my god, I’m dying!
Luckily for Nathan, the truth would end up being much more pleasant. In that moment though he’d be forgiven for fearing the worst, as a tickling heat rapidly spread across his body like an army of bugs settling into a new nest. The burning sensation prompted the terrified young man to grab at his shirt and rip it clean from his torso, a feat of strength that he’d never imagined himself to be capable of! As his pale and unremarkable chest was exposed though, Nathan was given his first sight of his transforming body. He watched in sheer amazement as the flat surface began to rise, with his pectorals becoming particularly prominent, so much so that they would probably fill out a modest bra with ease!
Pressure on his lower half prompted Nathan to rid himself of the rest of his clothes and right in time too, as his quads exploded out to the size of watermelons. He instinctively tensed the muscles and watched them shift underneath the surface of his tanned skin. The perky cheeks of his ass inflated even further, becoming two mighty globes that would be a struggle to fit into any pair of pants, no matter how much the material stretched. His manhood increased by a further three inches as his cock stiffened and began to leak pre-cum as a result of the erotic experience. His calves and feet weren’t unaffected by the changes either, with his shoe size increasing several levels and his calves blossoming into hard diamonds of muscle.
“Holy shit, this is awesome,” Nathan grunted, before reaching up to inspect his much thicker neck. His voice had emerged as a commanding boom rather than a meek lilt, and it caused his cock to throb in excitement. He’d never thought he’d be turned on by the sound of his own voice, but here he was! Letting his hands travel up further, Nathan traced the unfamiliar facial features he now possessed: the strong stubbly jawline, the plump lips, the thick eyebrows. Without even looking in a mirror Nathan knew that his boyish looks were gone and had been replaced with the visage of a man. His wavy hair had retreated back into his scalp too, leaving him with a close crop. Even his ear appeared to be pierced, with a stud magically appearing in his left earlobe!
Spread across different states and time zones, all five men began typing into their shared Discord server at the exact same time. Their messages were nearly identical too, with each of them having no clue that their friends had experienced a very similar process to themselves. As the “you’ll never believe what just happened” messages came rolling in, their excitement for the upcoming football season rose. Now that each of them possessed the body of their number one draft pick, there was a whole world of possibilities open to them, up to and including finally meeting up in person to have some salacious fun together!
It was Shaun who first brought their attention back to the draft that was still underway, asking a very valid question: “What do you think happens when we draft our full teams?” After all, fantasy leagues weren’t only played with one selection - they each needed a full roster! Would they have that whole roster of bodies to choose from or would they remain as their first choice? There was only one way to find out, and it was Nathan’s turn to make his second pick... This time though, the stakes of their choices felt even higher!
