Anti-Fantasy Draft and Discussion Thread

Yankees228 is up.

[yankees228]

I really wanted Mathias Kiwanuka with this pick, but he was just placed on IR, and his future is really up in the air. Instead I'll go with a very high upside pick, a ball-hawking safety with superstar potential that could start for me and also help in my nickel package. He's completely recovered from a knee injury he suffered last year, so I feel comfortable with this selection (especially considering he's going to be drafted as a bench player).

 

Kenny Phillips, SS, Bench

[italstallianion]

Jbay is now up. And I apologise if I offended anyone by making the executive decision to skip WhiskeyBreath early.

Jbay is now up. And I apologise if I offended anyone by making the executive decision to skip WhiskeyBreath early.

 

With the draft nearing it's conclusion, and these picks not having as much importance as earlier picks, I think it was the right decision. I also don't think WB will mind at all.

Luis Castillo, DE

[italstallianion]

Kilo is now on the clock.

[yankees228]

Luis Castillo' date=' DE[/b']

 

Nice selection jaybay. I was considering him for my most recent pick, or my next pick.

[italstallianion]

Kilo will have until 4 to make his pick. At that time, I'll make my pick and then the draft window will go down to 6 hours.

[YanksHater213]

IMO there are 3 or 4 teams that are completely pulling away from everyone.

[italstallianion]

I agree, although I doubt we'd agree on exactly which 4 teams they are.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I doubt Kilo will make his pick in time and I won't be around Ital want to take my picks again?

[Flynnatic10]

this is taking forever.

[italstallianion]

I doubt Kilo will make his pick in time and I won't be around Ital want to take my picks again?

 

 

Sounds fine, I'll be here.

[italstallianion]

this is taking forever.

 

 

It'll speed up in a bit. At 4:00 I'll make my pick, plus RSFFL's picks and then my 2nd pick so it'll go right back to Kilo, and the draft window will be shortened to 6 hours.

[italstallianion]

I choose Jon Babineaux DT

 

 

RSFFL chooses Keith Bulluck OLB and Nate Kaeding K

 

and I choose Sam Bradford QB2

 

 

Kilo is again on the clock with 6 hours.

[italstallianion]

Kilo has until 10:08pm and then it's Jbay's turn.

[yankees228]

IMO there are 3 or 4 teams that are completely pulling away from everyone.

 

Yeah, I'd tend to agree. I think it's the same teams that were ahead of the pack after the first ten rounds or so.

[italstallianion]

Yeah, YH and I agreed on 3 out of the 4 teams.

[italstallianion]

We can skip Kilo again, so Jbay can make his pick if he's online.

[YanksHater213]

I think it should be 4 hrs right now. Skipping isn't as big of a deal now cause most people are drafting for positions as opposed to talent.

[italstallianion]

Except for the last few spots on the chart, and most of that doesn't matter anyway since it's hard to differentiate who's better or by how much. (Punters for example)

[YanksHater213]

Not to ruin my draft strategy or anything, but kickers are kickers and punters are punters. Unless you pick a bad one, you're fine.

[italstallianion]

I agree with you on punters. Outside of Shane Lechler, all of the other punters are almost exactly the same. And even Lechler has 1.5-2 yard punting advantage over other "top" punters.

[TheKilo]

I'll take Jim Leonhard, SS and Aaron Hernandez, TE

 

Gotta have at least one scrappy white guy.

[Jasonbay44]

Nice selection jaybay. I was considering him for my most recent pick' date=' or my next pick.[/quote']

Thanks, I was thinking about taking him for a few rounds and was glad he was left.

 

Ill take Deuce Lutui, RG

[YanksHater213]

I'll take Jim Leonhard' date=' SS[/b'] and Aaron Hernandez, TE

 

Gotta have at least one scrappy white guy.

 

ahhhhh f*** you that was my TE

[italstallianion]

Sorry Jbay but Deuce Lutui was taken.

[italstallianion]

More specifically, Lutui was taken this past round by Coco.

[italstallianion]

I think that if someone picks a player that's already been taken, that the next player should be able to make their pick. Especially if the first person has signed off, that way we don't have to wait the full amount of time before the person to come back and realise that their pick was taken. In this case, I think that Yankees228 should be allowed to pick.
