Anti-Fantasy Draft and Discussion Thread

[yankees228]

OK guys, just give me five minutes. Just want to make sure I'm confident with my next pick.

[italstallianion]

Sounds fine by me.

[yankees228]

Antrel Rolle, FS

[italstallianion]

Jbay is up next.

[yankees228]

Just curious - what is everyone's time limit at this point?

[italstallianion]

It's still 8 hours, perhaps less if you've already been skipped and haven't made up a pick.

[yankees228]

It's still 8 hours' date=' perhaps less if you've already been skipped and haven't made up a pick.[/quote']

 

OK, fair enough. It would be pretty sweet if we finished this thing, with everyone making all their picks.

[italstallianion]

I'm doing what I can to accomplish that task.

[yankees228]

I'm doing what I can to accomplish that task.

 

Mhm, your dedication is appreciated.

[boston22407]

I'm doing what I can to accomplish that task.

 

:thumbsup:

[italstallianion]

I propose that we just skip everyone and let me fill in the rest of my team.

[Jasonbay44]

Heath Miller, TE

[italstallianion]

Kilo is now up.

[italstallianion]

RSFFL, if you have your picks ready, you can send them to me in case Kilo doesn't get his pick in tonight. That way I can make my picks and your picks while you're at school tomorrow.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I have my picks set already. I'll wait until 11 before I go to bed. If kilo doesn't make it I'll send you my picks.

[italstallianion]

I bet that Kilo will make his pick in the morning, in any case, it'll be my pick by 11:56am tomorrow morning.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Ital I'm going to send you my picks.

[TheKilo]

It's finally time for the BP Spillers to select a running back. Were more than halfway through this draft and I think I'm one of three teams without one, so I'm going to take the back I think is the best available from not only a running standpoint, but receiving out of the backfield as well. This guy has put up over 1,200 yards from scrimmage each of his first two seasons and with the weapons surrounding him he should find plenty of space to operate within.

 

Matt Forte, RB

[italstallianion]

I'm going to take Bernard Pollard SS

 

(I'm going to check my messages to get RSFFL's picks.)

[italstallianion]

RSFFL wants

 

Eric Steinbach LG

 

Sheldon Brown CB

 

and I'll follow it up with Shaun O'Hara C

[italstallianion]

so it's Kilo's turn once again.

[TheKilo]

Since Brady is my QB, what better center to take than Dan Koppen

[italstallianion]

JBay is now on the clock.

[Cocos Disciples]

MSU texted me his picks (he's been on the road for a while and hasn't been able to access a computer):

 

Dwayne Bowe, WR

Eric Wright, CB

[suns]

HAHAHHAHAHHAHAH ERIC WRIGHT HAHAHAHA

[suns]

What is up with everyone taking browns players now?

[TheKilo]

Dwayne Bowe is a pretty terrible receiver, I can think of at least 5 guys I'd take before him.

[TheKilo]

Now that were more than halfway through this thing, I'll offer up my thoughts on the three best and worst teams as presently constructed (excluding my own, of course)

 

Best:

I really like WhiskeyBreath's team as it is currently constructed - a winning QB, two complete mismatches athletically at the WR position, and real sound defense up the middle with guys like Dockett,

Ellis, Suggs, and Maulaga. Solid defensive backfield, but I am a bit concerned on how the O-line will fill out.

 

I like the fact that Yankees228 has built a championship level defense to this point without sacrificing offensive talent. The offensive and defensive lines are solid and Rodgers has some nice weapons to go after. I think this team can contend for a championship for the next five years.

 

I love YH213's defense, I think it's the beat singular unit of anyone's drafted team to this point. Some questions on offense but there's a lot of talent. They won't hav to be great to wins games with that D, but if Greene and Sims-Walker improve, they'll be dangerous.

Yankees228 is on the clock.
