I like my draft position as I counted 7 players I would be happy with...I think there is a drop off at 8 IMHO...

I know who I want, but I doubt I'll get him.

Since I don't have a 2nd or 3rd round pick, I'd be happy to trade a player for a pick.

SORRY!

Clock will close tonight at 8pm Eastern and re-open tomorrow at 8am Eastern, and run until 8pm. Wash, rinse, repeat.

No clock from 8pm this Friday Night until 8 am Tuesday Morning - Memorial Day clock remains OFF.

Was sort of hoping Crabtree would fall. Donald Brown it is. He may be on the block if someone is looking to move their first rounder and a second.

Cool! Made my preselects, off to work! Please text if it is my pick and I'll get to a comp ASAP. Thanks guys!

Totally...but Sanchez will have to do. While QB is really my last need, Mark is far and away the highest player left on my board. I actually drafted him over Stafford in Fusion.

I'm pretty happy with Robiske at 2.01 and my draft thus far in general. For better or for worse, I'm definitely starting to reshape the core of my team. Should be a fun season!

Same reason John keeps nabbing Minny WRs - law of averages says they're bound to find a good one eventually.

So who do you think would win in a drinking contest - Orton, Cutler, or Brian Griese?

Just an interesting tidbit on ol' Jay.

I saw him at a bar in Indianapolis (Broad Ripple actually) on Friday April 24. He was drinking Jack and Diet. And he had a lot of them. He was hammered. Stumbled out of the bar and had to be encouraged to go back in so as to not get a public intox. Stayed until close, drinking beers. Rumor has it he came alone, and left with a girl. Let me tell you, by 3:15 he was toast. Just fyi.



Got this from a solid huddler, and it doesn't surprise me. I'll go with cutler. sneaky.gif

I'm sure glad I went with Iglesias first then as I almost put Brown in first and Iglesias second. Looked at your roster and figured you'd probably be interested in a WR before another RB (although you are f'n stacked everywhere). Wanted a flyer on a guy that Cutler may groom as 'the' guy. I still think Hester is a one trick pony.

I thought about Brown too, but in the end decided to shore up depth at TE. Gonzo is not getting any younger and Scheffler is in a situation in DEN from all reports that he doesn't want to be in. (He hasn't been traded and I've missed it has he? unsure.gif )

All the talk out of Detroit is positive for Pettigrew. Of course, it's May. That's how all of the talk is from Detroit.

Eh, his production is slightly suspect due to Mizzou's offense, but I like his measurables and genes. Had him on my short list.
