Poly II Fantasy Football Draft Thread

[-Jrabbit]

268 athletic pounds of badass attitude, and from SIU to boot.
And he's nothing like Tiki -- he scores TDs!

Gettin' on The Next Bus with Saluki pride.

Not much more of a reach than Benson at #14... touche.

[SlowwHand]

I said last year that he should be starting.
If I said it, then don't you think I should back it up?

[snoopy369]

Sloww, if I were more of an ass i'd take that bet just to take your last $1.68... but I won't.

Look back midway into last round...

Given most everyone has 2-3 RBs at this point, and relatively few of us are looking for an RB, it's probably reasonable to take 2 WRs (both of whom will be starters, if he starts WR at the wr/rb slot) who are both high quality players, rather than the RB that is a much lower quality player.

But that's the curse of picks 1 and 10... (and 2 and 9 to some extent). You often have to take a much more aggressive strategy, especially faced with an unusual run on a position [like QB here].

The LT trade will not happen by the way I think Jag remembered what happened the last time he traded me LT (last year)...

I didn't trade you LT. I traded you Peyton Manning. Wrong superstar. Believe me, if I was in position to get LT in either league last year, he wouldn't have gone anywhere.

[SlowwHand]

I had him in one league here, and got him with the 5th pick.
That's the league I won.

[Jaguar]

2004?

[SlowwHand]

Last year.

Ah, Longhorn pride...

Sloww, I really hope you're right and Benson is a total stud this year. Believe me, I'm with you on this.

[SlowwHand]

Oh. I, and everyone else, was surprised at the LT drop.
It wasn't really as surprising as if it happened this year.

Oh, right. Forgot... LT was in the other league. (Or did I have LT and Peyton on one team? I can't remember any more... that team was awesome though either way.)

3pm EST yesterday when DOY went on teh clock. That makes it 11am EST when he hits eligibility for BAPAY.

[snoopy369]

Let's give him a few more hours, he's usually on around 2pm EST. I'll donate him a few of my hours

[SlowwHand]

Sure, why not? What's the point of having rules if you can't set them aside, after all?
Rules. BAH! We don't need no stinkin' rules!

[-Jrabbit]

FYI, by my reckoning, he would get Marshawn Lynch (projected). Or Deuce McAllister (actual).

The problem here is that Commish Berzerker is AFAICT still offline after his lightning incident a couple days back. I think we can afford to be mellow at this point.

Even though some of us (including myslf) are feeling impatient, I think we can afford a few hours.
