Round 8 Commentary

I liked the Johnnie Morton pick. He should pile up receptions in the new WCO.

Tough decision here with Jeff "0 career TD passes" Lewis. I considered RB/WR/D/K with this pick. I also am not sure Lewis was the best QB left on the board but despite camp competition it seems to be the safe pick. The goal was to avoid being left without a healthy starting QB on the roster if Brunell goes down. And he's got a pass-happy coach and 5 good targets: Muhammad, Walls, Biakabatuka, Jeffers, Hayes. So there is some upside. Hopefully he keeps his job and those changes to the line pay off.

Well, as bad as my team is i need to take a chance on lightning in a bottle, no matter how remote it is. Hopefully one of my two running QB's will actually be a double threat sweet kickass savior for me instead of crappy homo crybaby sideline pouters!!!@# mad.gif

Definitely too soon to pick up Charlie B!tch-I was planning to put a flier out on him next round! Nice pick if he stays healthy.

 

Guess I should probably think about picking up a second QB- especially since my #1 hasn't yet been named the starter (that's a yet- he's just too talented to sit on the bench). And Kordell is off th board...

Talent is getting very thin. I'll probably have to draft Laurence Philips or Cecil Collins here soon. mad.gif

Well I'm looking at Burt Reynolds from "The Longest Yard".

 

I'm just wondering who's going to blink and grab the Baltimore D or Vandejagt or Wilkens. Start the D and/or K runs...

Hopefully Conway only reaches my lineup twice this year but if Jimmy Smith doesn't play much, I'll have to settle with him as my #2 WR. To think that I could have a Charger as my #2 WR is kinda scary but he does have talent and things are looking up for him. He'll get two cracks at the Denver seconday so he should have some big games then frown.gif

 

My top 2 WR's have bye weeks at 5 and 6 and the Chargers play the Browns and the Patriots so he might end up filling in nicely.

Yeah it was probably at least two rounds too early to pick up Batch but I need a backup QB and other than Batch there's no one left that I would have even wanted as a backup. I know he'll only play half the season but as long as he's playing Testaverde's bye week then that's all I'm worried about.

I'm jealous of hoff's 2 picks. I needed to make sure I got Gary at some point and at the rate that people were stealing other's backups, I didn't want to wait any longer to get at least 1 of TD's...

 

Like the Morton pick especially... frown.gif Knew there was no way in hell he was getting back to me though. I have about 6 wr's left on my list that are about = so I figured I'd sew up my rb's with these last 2 picks since there will only be crap left by the time it gets back to me anyways. If I get screwed out of my wr's, well that's my bad. And as for a backup qb...I don't think it would matter much anyways. Almost all left are crap or backups on their own team. Hopefully I'll get a starter at some point to back up my (what the hell am I doing with only MATT HASSELBECK at my qb position!) reliable qb... confused.gif

I was kidding. Hopefully my back-up QB won't post negative numbers on the bye week!
