Thanks Dan. She's asleep now so this is a nice/needed destraction.

6.05 TE Travis Kelce, KCC

Sorry guys. My wife had some complications with her surgery after we got home and had to walk through some things with the doctor. She's okay now and resting again. Thanks RC for posting my text.

That a boy.

How far away is he now? Hmmmm

10 members online. 11th asleep in Japan and the otc 12 the only other one off-line :facepalm:

Fair enough, but here's where I disagree about that point. Was Olsen the best receiver on CAR last year? Yes. But did defenses put a corner on him with safety help over the top? No. So the coverage Olsen got last year isn't going to lessen this year because it wasn't rolled to him to begin with. What Benjamin will do is pull the extra coverage Cam got. Can't put a safety in the box or simply shadow him (obviously it was anything but simple) with an LB and let Benjamin get single coverage all the time. So IMO Olsen will see the same coverage but just get less targets because of other options for Cam.

:dancingbanana:

I had Floyd on my wish list (as in I'd wish he'd last) to 6.05. But at 4.05 I was || close to taking Luck instead of Watkins. If I didn't I knew he wouldn't make it past Fumble with his 5.03, so gambled that Wilson would make it to 5.08 who I have ranked just behind Luck and stuck with my game plan of Watkins at 4.05. It worked out on both ends and sniped V4E as a bonus

I don't have as much faith in Olsen as most. The WR corp will get Benjamin back and has other young guys with potential. I think Olsen falls back into the next tier, but as I said I'm in the minority on this one. Still not a bad pick at all just don't think he's the value others do as a mid 5th.

5.08 QB Russell Wilson, SEA

Thanks Ray. Pick's in. Will comment later when I have time.

4.05 WR Sammy Watkins, BUF

Sorry for the delay. Doc was discharging my wife just as I went otc. Dealing with all that now.

Texted Dan to let him know he's otc

3.08 WR Demaryius Thomas, DEN I like DT for a bounce back year. I don't think his new QB will light it up or anything but DEN has a great D to keep giving him the ball so the consistency should be helpful compared to last year. I also have a hunch DT will emerge as a team leader, taking more on his shoulders to help his QB. Rather than being an accompanying part with Mann8my there.

When I commented that Ray had a few nice choices for the last turn, I was including Ingram in that RB group. If I had gone WR in round 2 I would have been all over him with my 3.08 instead.

3.08 WR Demaryius Thomas, DEN

Don't know whether Hill would have made it back to Shovel but I did think that was early.

RC texted me that his pick was going to make Fumble mad ... lol

Texted RC. He'll be online in about 30min.

I worry that 2016 is the year you think 2017 will be for Shady.

Martin at the end of the 2nd was nice.

Sitting in a waiting room, so have some time to get some thoughts out... After starting off WR, I think RLLD has some options that will work out nicely at this turn. Two owners went WR/WR, 9 went receiver/RB and 1 (me) went RB/RB. This was surprising. In this format I expected a few to go RB/RB and that wasn't including me. Without PPR it limits the viable RB crop. Add in the NFL trend away from 3-down backs and later round RBs are even thinner.

I know you're just bustin balls, but I still liked the strategy last year based on my projections. Just can't predict injuries.
