He's shown plenty. If you say so. I'm gonna trust what I've seen of him and the 5-6 experts I've read that say the same thing before I trust you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying that just because it wasn't a big part of the offense doesn't mean he can't do it. He was more than capable when asked. Watch the tape.

Def. Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 I'd talk more, but one of our drafts is still sitting on the GD 2nd pick for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you love the guy that doesn't show up for the draft and it auto drafts your guy everytime? That drives me crazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big John Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 In the leagues i am in, if the timer expires, the pick is skipped and the skipped pick can be made anytime afterward barring any draft picks that were made in the meantime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also added that if the otc is traded, that owner is allowed to pick prior to the skipped pick being made. Im in a number of leagues that have owners on the west coast/east coast Europe and Australia, so overnight trades are common. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Def. Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Ok with 4 drafts finally past him, I don't get the Walker love vs someone else like the above discussed Pierce. Walker is most likely a 2 down back, so what makes him a top 4 and the other tier 3/4? Opportunity wise you'd think Mack is definitely less threatening with his age and loss of ability due to injury then Penny, a back who actually showed late last year. Do think he's probably being overdrafted at his spot due to position scarcity. (Just to note: not agreeing/disagreeing on anything with Pierce, just mentioned him since brought up previously in thread). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mack is surprisingly young considering it seems like he's been around a while. But I agree with your post. Walker is getting a lot of love considering the amount of competition that is in front of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millworkguy Posted May 9, 2022 Author Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) Penny had 3 good games last season, Carson was injured (again) and moving away from Wilson I expect more opportunities to rush the ball. I don't see alot in his way Other factors, draft capital , performance: 1 guy rushed 264 times for 1600 plus yards The other 100 times for 575 yards and wasn't the leading r7sher on his own team Edited May 9, 2022 by millworkguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Langford was really good coming out of MSU and he was nothing. I don't think at their best, he is any better than Penny, but I don't really know. I believe Pierce was drafted too soon. He is going to be a TD dependent type, goal line back type. Jordan Howard II. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have picks 8 and 9 in 1 league and think that I'll get my pick of Watson/moore/pierce. I was offered 5 the other day, and I just don't see the value of moving both picks to make it happen in a draft with so many different views on tiers.

I bit at 2.06 in a 12-team league where the other owners are mostly all RB-wh0res. So I figure if he utilizes the clear path to carries that I'll flip him for a future 1st or something.

Also said Hall will tumble down people's boards because he landed with Jets. Not their 1.01 anymore. I seriously doubt that. Carter and Hall will probably split 45/40% respectively in 2022, with the remaining carries going to Coleman and lesser backs on the roster. As for quality of prospect... Hall is a true #1 if the Jets want him to be. Carter is not and was never considered to be an every-down back. Really... there is ZERO comparison there. The dude on the podcast is seriously mistaken and it makes me think he has no clue what he is talking about. I mean it is *that* obvious.

League_Champion Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 It's interesting looking back on this and It wasn't even that long ago. Some guys are just vaulting up draft boards and others are sliding down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilthorp Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 First real draft last night. Hall was the first rookie at the end of the 4th. At the 5.11, Pierce is there, but so is Dobbins and Akers. I went with Cam and had no chance on the other 2 as they were swept up on the turn. Walker went end of 9th, Cook a few picks before that. Spiller & Allgeier undrafted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 I have the first pick in our draft coming next week, 12 teams 5 keepers for each. There's some really attractive players available including the rookies, and I'm going to be giving serious consideration to Hall. Not trying to turn this into an advice thread, but may post one later. I kept Akers, Jacobs, Adams, Pittman & Amari, and only 4 teams didn't protect a QB so those can be had in rounds 3-4. Conner would be hard to pass up. RB - Conner, Hall, Pierce, Mitchell, Dobbins, Etienne, Singletary WR - Sutton, Cooks, Jeudy, Marq Brown, G Davis, M Thomas, Mooney, Thielen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilthorp Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Etienne is essentially a rookie. I took him as my #2 with Akers/Stevenson/R White 3-5. Boom or bust there, but I'd think he's a better play than Hall, not as strong as Conner. I would put Pierce and Dobbins over Mitchell. I'm not giving you advice. Conner/Etienne/Hall/Pierce/Dobbins/Mitchell/Singletary I like Hollywood and Thomas, then Gabe, at least at the start with Hopkins out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
