You should never draft a Real Estate Appraiser before the 10th round. They're just too unpredictable and inconsistent.

BW... great minds think alike. Last night when I couldn't get in touch with you, I was prepared to pick at 13.04 for you too... my targeted pick was Ogunleye (although I also had a LB and DB in mind, however you were barren at DL). Again, thanks everyone for letting me partake in this mock for the short time I was here. I'll be checking in from time to time just to see where things are going and to look at the rosters. Some good drafters here and some questionable (IMHO) decisions too. Welcome back BW.

I'm logging off now too. I am pretty sure BarnabyWilde will be making his own picks from here on out, but will check in to make sure that happens. Thanks, everyone, for dealing with my occasional delays as I tried to get BW on the cell and explain what happened and read lists of players still available (since he wasn't carrying cheat sheets around Disneyland ).

I couldn't get through to BW for some reason, so I went ahead and made the pick myself. I didn't want things to hang up any longer. I'll keep trying, but will make the next one too if need be. Then BW should be able to take care of anything past round 13 himself.

12.09 - David Carr, QB, HOU

I can't get through... sorry for the delay... will keep trying.

Have to call BW now... will be a few minutes...

It's about 5:00 PM in the East, so I'm heading out of the office in a few minutes and have a 45 minute commute home. Once I get home, I'm on much less frequently. Plus I don't have any proxy lists since I'm picking for BarnabyWilde, so I can't send them off. I generally call him when he is on deck or in the hole, but I can't always be online in the evening to tell when he is up, so be generous with the time limits, please; we're moving really quickly anyway. As Zap said in the original post and the email he sent, he expected us to be available at least TWICE daily throughout the draft...

How can that be a steal when Marcus Pollard and Boo Williams, players ranked nearly the same (if not higher) went right around the same time?

11.04 - Marcus Pollard, TE, IND

Especially since he was already taken at 10.02... now that is stealing!

Mike, you do know it's your turn to pick, right?

I don't have the compiler, but 9th best LB sounds about right for Spikes. He's not the same player he was 4-5 years ago...

There is some great value still at QB. If he anticipated the QB freefall, then he is one smart man. If he goes QB-QB around the turn, he'll have two solid starters while we all went QB much earlier and don't necessarily have better quality.

10.09 - Deion Branch, WR, NE
