BeeR Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 OK I'm in. How high will Favre go??? ESPN will be there in force to report on this from 50 different angles (none of them interesting in the least) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Who is "whiskey"? I mean, I do love my whiskey but I don't know if it's a Huddler or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j2v Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 Who is "whiskey"? I mean, I do love my whiskey but I don't know if it's a Huddler or not. It is a public auction, so there's a chance some non-Huddlers wandered in off the street. But right now it looks quite Huddler-heavy.

Ah, thought you said that the site owner was gonna bounce the non-Huddlers off.... I certainly hope they don't treat this as a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see what we fill of the 10 spots, and then if there's more Huddlers interested we'll start kicking the great unwashed. But so far I haven't encountered any folks who mock at FA that don't take it seriously. Huddlers in: POC Darin3 BeeR DMD 2V rhody, BearWithMe, jtbz, and whiskey may very well be Huddlers, they just haven't identified themselves as such 2V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're a Huddler and you want to participate in this, PM me and I'll get you a spot. Otherwise, I'm of the believe that it's better to roll with live bodies as opposed to artificial intelligence. 2V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Interesting draft. Some definite surprises to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiskey Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I signed up randomly and didn't even know it was all Huddlers. I figured as much after seeing DMD and Tuvey though. Interesting results. Lots of bargains late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeeR Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 my take Team 1: a fine team overall with depth and no glaring weaknesses IMO. Paid big for Addai but got some good deals rest of the way. Probably best team here I think. Team 2: big pontential but McNabb, Westbrook, Jackson and Harrison must stay healthy and stay on top of their game or this team is sunk. Team 3: Romo, LT and Moss are hard to argue but no depth including no backup QB, so others must step up because I don't think even those 3 can carry the whole team all the time esp if Moss comes back down to earth. Team 4: went for depth in a big way but too much I think and this just screams .500 team to me. Also no backup QB. Team 5: this guy will live or die with the Browns. Starters are fine but terrible bench, overpaying for Peterson hurt. Team 6: this guy got caught bidding up Brees and that hurt as RB's are weak, although there is good depth there. If a trade of Brees and maybe include one of the RB's for a top RB, team has top potential. Team 7: has top potential only if the risky Delhomme and his WR's stay healthy - good depth except again at QB (no backup). Team 8: speaking of questionable QB's! Also LJ and Grant both somewhat risky esp with zero to back it up, but could best one of the best if they come thought and a QB steps up. Wayne and Colston a great WR combo. Team 9: no depth here at all but if starters all play to expected levels definitely one of the best teams. Team 10: one of the best teams I think, like Team 1 has no glaring weaknesses and has some fine depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
