I feel pretty fortunate to have ended up in the top slot this year, especially considering the number of players kept. I had considered keeping Welker, but the way things worked out got Smitty and was still able to secure Welker as my #2 wr. Now I just need to address this RB bye situation...

1st thing Tbone said on the phone was what the hell kind of team had better keepers then smith laughing.gif

I was hoping that BJ might be tempted to keep Lynch and i could end up with White or Colston, but I'm satisfied.

I had 4 potential keepers and was a bit torn on the decision.

Can anyone text me during the week when my turn is up? Getting MFL on my iphone is hit or miss so if someone could also start a selection thread with round and pick that would be cool too. I can access the Huddle from my phone easily so if I know whos been taken and where I can just make my selection here and BJ can load it into the site. TIA smile.gif

This would be good for me as well. I can get MFL but not Live Draft. I plan to pre-select before work in the morning.
Big John
Since this is the official start time of the draft, I have turned the clock on. (8 hours)

Balla is now on the clock.

Someone else needs to handle texting requests, since I don't have that plan on my cell and would be charged to send or receive text.

When I turned the clock on, I thought it wold start from there. It then showed the timer expiring on Balla, then exposing the preselects for the next 2 teams.

I reverted the draft back to Balla, as he has until 6:00 PM ET to make his pick. I deleted the next 2 picks that were shown, so they need to redo picks/preselects.

My iPhone seems to be working here pretty well. Not sure with the MFL site. If my turn comes up t-bone will text me and I'll either try to get into MFL or post my pick here.

BJ can we have a selection thread started just so We can see who's been picked without going into MFL? TIA smile.gif

canes screwed up his 9.11 pick. I have a placeholder in there now.

Billay has been PM'd an option to change his next picks. Canes does not want to pick until after this. So on temporary hold now.

edit: canes chose Steve Smith NYG for 9.11, waiting for billay to give his preference before moving on.

Totally my fault for screwing up the process.Too many windows open, FB'ing, looking at 3 leagues and reconfiguring my rankings all at once makes for a sloppy drafter.

I'm sure the big hooter I partook in was no help either. whacko2.gif

Now Hat Trick did an ESPN wet dream for the last 2 picks.

Draft finished in good time. clap.gif

My last pick was a sleeper in case Pierre's injury is worse than reported.

Waivers? shrug.gif

I bailed at the last minute on my sleeper, and I want to correct that lack of courage.

12.9 Waivers will begin on the first Tuesday following the end of the draft.

You can now put in waiver requests and they will be processed at 11:00 PM ET on Tuesday.

Good.

'Cause it looks like Schaub might've hurt his mangina....AGAIN (sorry POS can't stay healthy to save his life) & I might need to pick up another QB before the season even starts.
Big Score 1
Nope, I'm cool. Schaub only suffered a minor mangina sprain.
