Let me be the first to sayI love your start Fubar. Great picks IMO
:confused: I'm really not sure about Tomlinson moving forward, but I figure he has a good chance of being a top 10 RB this year, though he has the risk of falling apart. Almost feels like I'm living in the past, but we'll see.

I like the picks too. I really like the value at the end of round 1/ start of round 2
 
Damn, I decide to jump in and take the 1.15 spot and geez. Youse guys are takin' all the good players. By the time my next pick rolls around I may be forced to bring Jim Thorpe and Otto Graham outta retirement. :lmao:

Let me correct that since I'm a Niners fan. I'll have to bring Joe Montana and Jerry Rice outta retirement :thumbup:

Your all a bunch of WR whores and I hate you all. Now on to Plan D
That was to be expected IMO. So I almost went WR/WR at the turn and wait for some good value RBs to fall to the end of the 3rd.
No it was not because in the rest of the drafts I would have had Boldin or Jennings. Just you people :unsure:
WR's and TE's being a total reflection of the PPR scoring system. Bush, and his knee....be interesting to see how far he falls....to somebody as a RB-#2.We don't play this out so it's a total risk reduction program....as it would be if we did....I guess? :thumbup:


 
I went back and forth on Bush to Addai, 3 times putting both names in my thread before I pulled the trigger. Not surprised to see Bush go not long afterwards.

I'm nervous going with Bush, but his upside in PPR is too great to overlook. If he can go all year, he'll be a steal in the 3rd.
 
Has any veteran receiver gone up the charts faster than Antonio Bryant? Last year's afterthought, this year a WR1. Wow!

I liked him at 3.09; nice as a WR2. Was debating between him and Thomas Jones, actually--but Gamma took care of that problem!
 
3.10 Kurt Warner, QB Cardinals Swinging for the fences... the straw that stirs the drink just HAS to be back...DOESN'T HE???If so, a virtual lock for 30+ six points per TDP...
Now we're rockin!! Can't win without a gamble here and there... :moneybag:
 
Debated with Jones vs. Manning, but I have never taken a QB in the top three rounds in one of these. Curious what direction Bloom would have gone if Manning was off the board.

Are we playing this out?How does one "win" this competition?

Yup, these are played out. Twilight runs a board that keeps track of all the various SL's, and if you are lucky, you 'win' bragging rights.Here is twilight's link to 2008 SL's

http://ffplace.com/

 
I was interested to see where Santionio Holmes was going to go in our draft. I think all the other WSL's had Santonio drafted pre-sb and he went @ 5.03, 5.10 & 5.12. In ours he went @ 3.15. Looks like his super bowl performance bumped him up a solid round and a half.

 
Well he was going higher than any of the others before the SB. In my pre plan which has been shot to hell anyways, I had him penciled in at the 4.14.

As it should. Only problem is PIT's up and down curve at WR. If they get a lead, they sit down and the air comes out of the ball.

For this reason, Holmes will never be a #1 WR but he's a solid #2-1/2 WR.....drafted where he belongs.

If the truth be known, Rogers-Cromartie biting up on the fake in the flat allowed a 40+ yard completion to Holmes on that last SB drive. That play made Holmes look real good because of his returner skills in the open field. If R-C stays home and covers Holmes, it's a 10 yard completion and the SB is still a contest.....and Holmes is still a late 4th/early 5th rounder.

:thumbup:

Probably Rodgers. I was planning on going QB because I don't want to have to cobble together a QBBC in a 16 teamer when I have to wait 14 and 16 slots between picks. If my picks were bunched closer I would have been fine with that. There were 4-5 QBs that would allow me to not have to worry too much about QB2, and I was planning on spending my 3rd on one of them regardless - it was icing on the cake that Manning fell.
 
Well yeah,I probably took Holmes earlier than I should. I was gonna take Braylon Edwards but thought here would be there coming back to me but didn't turn out that way. I didn't like a whole lot of the receivers left after so many were already gobbled up, so I guess I'll just take my chances with Holmes. I still think he'll be the Steelers leading receiver this year. We can speculate all we want, he'll either work out for me or not. His reception total sucked last year(55) but I think that'll increase at least 15 more. His yardage total should increase to at least 1,000 I'm hoping and with that maybe a couple of more td's.He won't be the only receiver I'm counting on. I got a couple of guys I think will surprise and hopefully they'll slide to me. I just think some of the other receivers had question marks I didn't like and I think Holmes has some upside. At 6 pts. a td I went ahead and took Rogders because I didn't like what might be available for me at QB 28 picks from now. No QB at that point would give me the production Rodgers would. Talent goes pretty quick with 16 teams and sometimes you gotta take chances. Some may not agree with where I took Holmes but I don't think he was that bad of a pick. We'll know by season's end. Hey whaddya want, I'm just a guy that took over a spot that was holdin' things up a bit,LOL. Kinda on short notice. I'll make up for it in the later rounds :lmao: Sign me up for the next one so I can correct any mistakes from this one. :popcorn:

FWIW, I thought it was a fine pick and was between Holmes, Braylon, and another WR yet to be drafted (no name dropping). In this format, Holmes could be very good as long as you have other solid WRs. I like the kid and own him in a few leagues. He's probably a young Joey Galloway, big play WR. Too bad the Steelers have a great D, or he'd produce even more.

Well yeah,I probably took Holmes earlier than I should. I was gonna take Braylon Edwards but thought here would be there coming back to me but didn't turn out that way. I didn't like a whole lot of the receivers left after so many were already gobbled up, so I guess I'll just take my chances with Holmes. I still think he'll be the Steelers leading receiver this year. We can speculate all we want, he'll either work out for me or not. His reception total sucked last year(55) but I think that'll increase at least 15 more. His yardage total should increase to at least 1,000 I'm hoping and with that maybe a couple of more td's.He won't be the only receiver I'm counting on. I got a couple of guys I think will surprise and hopefully they'll slide to me. I just think some of the other receivers had question marks I didn't like and I think Holmes has some upside. At 6 pts. a td I went ahead and took Rogders because I didn't like what might be available for me at QB 28 picks from now. No QB at that point would give me the production Rodgers would. Talent goes pretty quick with 16 teams and sometimes you gotta take chances. Some may not agree with where I took Holmes but I don't think he was that bad of a pick. We'll know by season's end. Hey whaddya want, I'm just a guy that took over a spot that was holdin' things up a bit,LOL. Kinda on short notice. I'll make up for it in the later rounds :thumbup: Sign me up for the next one so I can correct any mistakes from this one. :lmao:
I don't know that you took Holmes to early, probably about right. My earlier comments had more to do with the fact that I KNEW he'd have some upward movement from the prior WSL's because they were pre-SB. I was curious how much that movement would be, and a round and a half seems reasonable, I guess.
 
Is there some reason that the WSL #4: Mockin' Is Rockin' thread (our draft thread) can't be used to draft all 20 rounds?

I think many use mobile devices to keep up with the draft/make picks and the long threads may take much longer to load/view. Just a guess.
 
Going to start to get interesting now with a lot of the stars and named players outta the way.Still a lotta good players to be had but some may go elsewhere and we don't know how they'll perform. Some coming off injuries and are they going to be healthy.Some Fa's and contract players that could impact their production depending onthe team they end up on.This starts the part of the draft where there are going to be a lot of variables and questions to consider, and the one ones who can correctly answer those are gonna be the ones ending up with good picks that were not thought of as such otherwise. May be some sleepers out there to be had as well and where do you take them.Yep fellows,time to put on the old thinking cap now to make sure you're getting value and the right pick for you're team. Speaking of thinking caps I better check the batteries in mine as I wouldn't won't it to go blank right when I'm picking. :loco:

One factor I forgot is we're drafting and we don't know what the Bye weeks will be, so we're basically drafting blind. I'm sure once the draft is over there'll be a couple of by weeks issue,I just hope it ain't my team,lol. Still we're all in the same boat with bye weeks and we just gotta hope for the best.

After scanning the draft it looks like a who's who of FBG's members in this draft. I've been around the message boards a few years, mainly as DocNiner, and I recognize all the names in this draft. I also know there's no dummies in this draft and I'm going to have to be on my 'A' game throughout the draft. I know you guys are very FF knowledgable and you're not gonna let guys slip by or make any major missteps.So, that being said I will appeal to your emotional side and to be gentle with me. I've had some major health issues the last few years, which are pretty stable right now,but feel like I'm pre-oldtimers disease :lmao: ,whick makes me tend to forget shiot. So take pity on this old declining mind :confused: and leave me a couple of good players to draft as my short term memory's about as long as you know what,until my nurse comes to the house 3 times a week for her hand grab duties, I mean rehab duties :mellow: Ahhhh,the benefits of good health insurance.

5.02 pick: Thigpen, Tyler QB-KCC

Better get him while he's there.
interesting pick....considering who is still left on the board and the fact that KC might draft a QB.....i personally think Thigpen played well enough to get a long look at keeping the job, but with the new regime in town one never knows.

No mercy!!! ;)This is my favorite part of the draft. Moreso in dynasty leagues, but even in redraft. The first few rounds, we can pretty much guess who will go when, within a few picks anyway, without many surprises. Strategy may come into play, but the players themselves are pretty easy to judge. Now, there are risks, rewards, differing opinions, and favoritism come into play more. We'll have picks go a round or three earlier than each of us may personally have chosen that player (ahem, Tyler Thigpen) but we can sound very stupid if we rip on any of the picks, as they could be great picks in a year. For example, I was ripped for my WR corps last year - yet it's why I "won" this thing. Good times, let's roll.
 
5.02 pick: Thigpen, Tyler QB-KCC

Better get him while he's there.
Interesting pick....considering who is still left on the board and the fact that KC might draft a QB.....i personally think Thigpen played well enough to get a long look at keeping the job, but with the new regime in town one never knows.
I did a fair amount of messing to come up with that pick. In the end analysis, it came down to seeing him play twice.....catching the first game feeds because I'm in the second game time zone and KCC often plays in the early game.I was able to coroborate my observations with the sorts; ever sort came up with Thigpen as at least a top 10 QB. The year end sorts had him riding about the #6QB. The thing from the sorts that stood out was his willingness to punch the ball in around the goal line....three short rushing TD's, and a respectable red zone rating. He wasn't particulary accurate as a thrower in the RZ....he wasn't Manning, Peyton....but he was respectable there.

Todd Haley's hire was the tipping point. He's got a good OFF reputation and should make for a real upgade in their OFF system. KCC was knocked league wide (PFW, in particular) for running no better than a college level OFF. With Haley and Poli, KCC will take a while to adjust to the new system. Once they do, it will be interesting to see what type of numbers this system will put up.

As to KCC drafting a new QB....we'll see. I took that into consideration. I just didn't feel that QB was where KCC had to go in the draft. They've got a long process to bring that club back to respectabilityu and QB is not their biggest need. The NEP outfit that spawned this partnership (Poli/Haley) has a history of drafting and developing QB's from the later rounds of the draft.

In the end analysis, I sprung because I didn't feel that any of the options had the up-side that Thigpen had and I didn't feel that he'd be available, givien the developments in KCC, at what basically amounts to 30 picks later. Drafting in the spots close to the curve is a blessing....in a twelve owner draft. In a sixteen teamer, it's a hassel. Thirty picks is a long field of vision.

There are still some decent options at QB and a couple of other decent options at the other positions for this #4-#5 turn. To have any shot in this "Total Score by Position" format, you have to have a consistent scoring option at your #1QB. This turn yielded the #12 QB and Thigpen has the stats, the coaching and the system upgrade to support a top ten to top six QB rating.

....and he's there, now; so I had to take him, now.

What will be super interesting is to go at season's end and see where the points came from and where the point producers came from in each of these WSL Drafts. The early drafts (#1-4) have a different information curve about them. If you could have forcasted in January that Haley and Poli were going to be the team in KCC, well you would have had Thigpen rated as a #1 QB in a 16-teamer, even a #1 QB in a twelve teamer. As it was, each of those Drafts had Thigpen falling later, maybe even as a #2 QB?

The other thing that's apparent is that the decision we make in the early rounds influences our later round choices....which is part of the reason we spend time Mockin'. When I yielded to the scoring system and took Dallas Clark at the 2:15, I did so because I was curious as to what would happen with the QB's for the next 30 odd some picks. When I took Fitzgerald at the 1.02, it was to see what options presented themselves at RB come the next turn. What happens is that you trade the points above the average for your #1 RB chosen as the second pick for the points above the average for your #1 WR chosen as the second pick....and, you don't have the injury history at WR that you have at RB. I had Westbrook as the #2 RB but wasn't entirely sold on his age/injury risk factor.

You also trade Fitz's points above average for what amounts to an average RB at the #2-#3 turn. The RB having some upside helps a bunch....if Ronnie Brown stays health, (blah, blah, blah) he has the up-side to be a better than average RB.....a TD back in a PPR League.....basically a push at the #18 RB spot.

Last year's #1 RB (DeAngelo Williams in non-PPR) was drafted at about the #34 RB slot going all the way through late August. If we could have all forseen the forces that were acting, we'd have all taken Williams in evey draft. Remember....he was there, all you had to do was choose him.

:mellow:

i own thigpen in several dynasty's and i certainly hope they don't draft a QB early as it will make some other QB i own expendable. not sure i agree with all the talking heads on the stafford to det/sanchez to KC....lthese teams could do alot better for themselves(IMHO) by taking those big OT and let someone else take the QBs.

You don't have to "Own Him Here....and Hope."I get to do that.

As to pulling the trigger: I was convinced that he wouldn't be there after the next 30 picks fell and I was convined that he was the best QB option available....and, you gotta have a QB's in these deals. Once you convince yourself, you pull the trigger.

Simple.

That's why we do this: to play out these scenarios early and make hay late.

Heck: Ward, Hines just fell as the #25 WR. That's probably a good risk at that point....but, time will tell. He's there for a reason.....that's the reason of shared perception. We all agree that he's not the same receiver as he was before he 1) aged, and 2) started the injury curve. He's a HOF possession receiver on a team that targets him often....a good risk.

I passed on him to take the upside risk on Moore....who has the potential of playing for another team as a UFA....upside vs. risk. It's the same equation for evey choice.

Remember: we all could have drafted Williams, DeAngelo last year....his ADP was the #34 RB....shared perception is a often times a killer.


 
My pick is 10 picks from now so whenI get a pm that's it's my pick bear with me. My scooter's in the shop gettin upgraded by Tim Taylor for maximum effiency and I gotta pick it up.That's fine as long as I don't end up in the emergency room,lol. Pam Anderson has agreed to ride along home with me to make sure I get there safe and sound.Her seat is in front of mine. She said once we arrive I could help her debrie allthe bugs from the headlights, all 3 of them :)

 
I was really hoping Cotchery was going to fall to 5.08, he's been by BWRA for a little while now, but alas... Im not a huge fan of doubling up on any team/attack this early, but I think AGonz role increases greatly next year, and Im figuring on a few weeks when he and Peyton double-handedly keep me alive.

 
No idea what to expect from this guy.5.06 Larry Johnson, RB, KC(?)
nice value...would have drafted him last round if i didn't have Bowe....hope Stewart has a repeat. :thumbup:
:thumbdown: he would have been my 5.16 pick - I would have loved having LJ and LT. He may not ever be the RB he was, but he should be a good value here.
 
Some serious "valya" picks in the mid-sixth round: Parker, Burress, Breaston.

Interesting stuff. :goodposting:

;) I like Breastson as much as anyone, and Plax could be good, but I'm not ready to call either a true value pick here. FWP has risk, but should pay off.

I think Parker was a value pick as I don't think there is much doubt he will be the starter next season and should still get more then 50% of the work by the end even if others eat into his time.Breaston and Plax were more high risk but the reward is top-10 potential for either

 
I like Breaston because he has a floor of about 65/800 even if Boldin returns, and a much higher (top 10-15) ceiling if Boldin gets traded. Ability is not a question, and you know LFitz is going to garner more attention from the defense than ever. The only real risk is that Warner retires, but I think that's <10%.

I really think that Warner is more than 50% to retire at this point. have to wait and see what GOD says :thumbup:

These "tarnished halo" guys are all available because of some blot on their ink stain.....similar to Steve Smith several year's ago when he missed some major time and came back to lead the League's WR's the next year.Parker is probably in the same bucket as Smith, a high up-side player returning from injury. The good news is that we're spotting these players now in the draft cycle and we'll be able to follow their rise, assent or leveling off as we proceed to draft time. If Parker maintains this type of ADP, it's worth knowing the range to trade into (pick #86) to snabble him up.

I'd estimate that a regular draft (no 2-PPR for TE's) would move Parker into the pick #75-#80 range. In a twelve teamer, that's mid to early 7th round, which probably translates to the turn at #72. I doubt of Parker makes it to the turn at #84 in that type of draft....that's #3-1/2 to #4 RB territory.

I home from the hospital. Sorry for all the hoo-ha. I was scared though. I had my esophagus dilated on 2/2 because of swallowing(motility ) problems. 12th time I've had it done. Shoulda known something was bound to happen. Dilations can cause a tear or rupture of the esophagus rarely and if left undetected can lead to death.I was having sharp chest pains at the bottom of the sternum. Well, I went through 2 CT scans and a barium swallow but showed no tear or rupture.Kept me on IV antibiotics, fluids plus meds and monitired me in the hospital a couple of days. I wasn't able to eat soft food until today so they let me go. The only good thing while I was in there from Sunday until this afternoon was 4mg of Dilaudid(pain med) by IV every 4 hrs.That kept me pretty chilly and mellow to say the least,wooooo!! I still have some ongoing med problems so ,God forbid, if anything else happens and you don't see me around hopefully Toads and/or Glumpy can pick for me. I'll get a pm to them, or anyone who would take one, as soon as anything would happen and a list of players if possible but I trust their's and anyone else's judgement. Many thanks to Toads for doing what he did and taking care of it for me on such short notice :bow: . I appreciate you're help very much Toads. He's exactly one of the reasons I wanted in this draft when I seen the list of people involved in. I recognized everyone by name and knew the draft was filled with 1st class people :thumbup: . I may not post alot but I'm always checkin' in at FBG's. Shouldn't be any more trouble with my picks unless I'm laid up with a 21 y.o. playboy model somewhere and don't have internet access, :whistle: Two chances of that happening. Slim and none and Slim just left town. VERY,VERY glad to be back guys after this scare and I'll be around should anyone need my help. Many thanks to all of you for a really good draft. I'm enjoying it. If you guys should do another one after this please keep me in mind for it. Once again many thanks for pickin' up my slack and all the concern you guys shared for me.There's so much more to life than FF and you guyshere have certainly showed that and should be proud of yourselves :clap: . Great bunch of guys we have here at FBG's period!!! OK, now leave me some good players dangit :=)

Glad to hear you're clear of the hospital. Good luck on that playboy model thing. We're all pulling for you.

I'm online pretty much all the time, and can take a PM if you do need it again.

 
Now that my rounds 5 & 6 picks have been corrected and updated I have deleted all my unecessary posts from the rounds 5 through 8 picks thread. Thanks.

Thanks Road Warriors and I'll keep you in mind if need be :unsure:

10 more picks in round 7 before my 7.15 pick. Hmmmm, yeah, that'd give me enough time to head back over to the hospital floor I was on and get 1 more of those wonderful evening oil back rubs from one of the cute little nursing students. MY OH MY. Still a wicked old man am I :lmao:

I hated the Garrard pick but think you made up for with Carson. Nice value and I had his name written down but realized he probably had a good chance to have same bye week as Pittsburgh and switched to Wells.
