PackerAaron 0 Posted July 8, 2004 I had to blink three times. I can't believe Edwards was still on the board. Yes, his team sucks. Yes, they'll be running a new scheme. Yes, he is an IDP monster no matter what. Steal o' the draft so far... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zap 0 Posted July 8, 2004 I restarted the computer to see if I could get a fresh run at this site... lol. Editing is almost impossible, so track the current rounds and pick away. I'll get back to it and see how it goes, but the site wasn't responding, returning errors, timing out, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zap 0 Posted July 8, 2004 This would be a prudent time to double check your rosters considering the troubles I was having this morning. Â Moz? Â Scooter? You're vexing us. Â Thanks for the list FF Aff. Let me know if you're back in time. I really don't open them. We took Wayne at the same time last round. Ya'll see how nice that worked? He picked Wayne while I was referencing his list. I came in and picked Wayne without noticing he'd already done so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike MacGregor 20 Posted July 8, 2004 Maybe I'm an arrogant bast@rd, but I am really not that intimidated byt this idea - I really feel like I can compete with anyone in FFB. Perhaps it will be an expensive lesson in humility? [For scooter continuing other commentary to make sure he sees it.] Â My advice: Don't let the big dollar entry fee fool you. There are lots of people out there with money to throw around and that has no correlation to their skill level at fantasy football. There isn't much difference in skill level between people competing in these big competitions and a typical - well, what I would call typical - internet league full of competitive message board geeks. Â So, I would expect more skill than most local leagues, but on par with geek leagues. No magazines. Everyone will probably have purchased some up-to-date internet service of some kind. You're probably making a good choice going with this contest, as I did notice WCOFF more competitive in year 2 as they had a year under their belts to cut away some less skilled players and all returning members were more in tune with the intricacies of the game. Â If you can get a good handle on a 14 team draft going in, then I expect you'll be in great shape because that could throw some people not used to it.

Zap 0 Posted July 8, 2004 I'm having surgery tomorrow. sorry that this mock was not the most singular thing in my life right now. This will slow us down. Â Send a list, please. And I had the same injury. Good luck with that. It can still bring intense pain if I grab a rebound going one way the same time another grabs it going the other way. Then I drag my arm around for an hour. Very painful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

football_scooter 0 Posted July 8, 2004 I'm having surgery tomorrow. sorry that this mock was not the most singular thing in my life right now. This will slow us down.  Send a list, please. And I had the same injury. Good luck with that. It can still bring intense pain if I grab a rebound going one way the same time another grabs it going the other way. Then I drag my arm around for an hour. Very painful. nah - actually it'll speed it up when I get home. I'll be off for many moons and will have nothing to do but harrang people to make their picks.  I'll send you a list tonight - I'll probably get to make at least one more pick today the way things are progressing, so after that I will send you a looooong list so as to not impair the draft in the morning.

football_scooter 0 Posted July 8, 2004 Yes, Reed was a bit of a reach. Probably still too early to take a DB, but I just didn't see a hell of a lot of value around, and he is a playmaker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zap 0 Posted July 8, 2004 We have a real nice run set after Moz picks twice. I have a list from Blue. I'd hate to proxy Moz twice, and I'd hate to lose the run. Crud, how patient are you? Don't go anywhere without leaving me a short list, please and TIA. I'm keynote speaker at a company lunch at noon. I can send a list to any volunteer who is here for the day.

Zap 0 Posted July 8, 2004 Moz looks like he'd be seeking defense and receiver with these picks, imho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BleedingEagleGreen 0 Posted July 8, 2004 Yes, Reed was a bit of a reach. Probably still too early to take a DB, but I just didn't see a hell of a lot of value around, and he is a playmaker. I love that pick. I think Reed ends the 2004 season as the #1 FF point-getter at DB. The ADP I have (from xpertleagues) has him at 9.6, so you're getting him right about where you should.

Thanks - I didn't think he was a steal there, but I agree that he has #1 DB potential - and I could have done a lot worse there. Â I had a couple of LB I was eyeing, but Reed kept jumping out at me.

The Moz 69 Posted July 8, 2004 Maybe should have went defense -- But I am sure someone was targeting Lefty in this round and didn't want to risk him not getting back to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grigs Allmoon 0 Posted July 8, 2004 Maybe should have went defense -- But I am sure someone was targeting Lefty in this round and didn't want to risk him not getting back to me. Nice choice.

BleedingEagleGreen 0 Posted July 8, 2004 Maybe should have went defense -- But I am sure someone was targeting Lefty in this round and didn't want to risk him not getting back to me. I was going to encourage BW to consider Leftwich too, but then I realized he has the same bye-week as Vick (his #1 QB). Oh well... back to the drawing board (or the cell phone in this case).
