[Zopperoni]

Right, now that the draft is over, we can take some time laugh at each other's rosters, propose trades, talk news et cetera.


Good luck to everyone!

Again, please visit our league page at Yahoo! and check whether I've processed your picks correctly.

I will hit the "Start Season"-button on Monday morning.

[Donegeal]

Talk news, eh?

T.O. is a complete moron!!!!

[reismark]

My picks are good!

[gjramsey]

My picks are correct on Yahoo, but good may be a different story

[Imran Siddiqui]

Now bring on the season!!

Interesting thing I heard just now is that Drew Rosenhaus is trying to get Volek (his client) traded, but Tennessee isn't hearing it. They were talking Chicago. Frankly, I think my pick may have a higher value as McNair's backup .

And for Zop and me, two of our drafts ended today!

[Zopperoni]

This is my roster:

Amsterdam Afros
Matt Hasselbeck
Jake Delhomme

Willis McGahee
Rudi Johnson
LaMont Jordan
Larry Johnson
Brandon Jacobs

Hines Ward
Michael Clayton
Laveranues Coles
Donte Stallworth
Amani Toomer
Greg Lewis

Dallas Clark

Jeff Wilkins

New York Jets


It's pretty steady, apart from the absence of a super-duper TE.

[duke o' york]

Many thanks to Zopp for organising the draft.

[Imran Siddiqui]

My Roster:

Brian Griese
David Carr
Billy Volek

Priest Holmes
Deuce McAllister
Lee Suggs
Mike Anderson

Chad Johnson
Drew Bennett
Roy Williams
Brandon Stokley
Keyshawn Johnson

Tony Gonzales

Mike Nugent

Buffalo Bills
Cincinnati Bengals

[Zopperoni]

How good is this Mike Nugent kid? I've been reading good things about him, but he's still a rookie...

[Imran Siddiqui]

He was the Ohio State kicker for the last 4 years... ie, many pressure kicks. People are saying he'll be the next big time 'clutch' kicker in the league (the next Vinateri, if you will).

[Zopperoni]

We'll see, but the last wave of young kickers has been promising either way. Josh Brown, Jeff Reed, Nate Kaeding, Shayne Graham, and Josh Scobee have all posted very respectable numbers.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Well if you've followed college football recently, Nugent has been college football's Vinateri making last minute kick after last minute kick.

[gjramsey]

Presenting the Razor's Edge

Peyton Manning
Carson Palmer

Brian Westbrook
Duce Staley
Cedric Benson
Frank Gore
Mewelde Moore
Ryan Moats

Marvin Harrison
Ashley Lelie
Eddie Kennison
Braylon Edwards
Matt Jones

Jason Witten

David Akers

Jacksonville

Not too happy with my RBs, but that is life when you take a Qb #1.

I don't watch football and I find college football somewhat confusing. I'm happy enough as it is that one channel can be arsed to broadcast the Super Bowl.
