I concluded from the first year of this format that it is pointless to worry about playoff aspirations. You'll be wrong a lot of the time, and being right won't necessarily help you much.Gonzo was the #3 non-QB in the format last year, without any playoffs.Biabreakable said:CalBear how are you feeling about the Cheifs playoff aspirations?
Hey sorry Nit. Hope you aren't disappointed with Housh. I had those two (Housh. Saints TQ) at the top of my board. Both excellent value.
Thanks, man. Free League, no big deal, just a little frustrating in regards to the timing of things. When I got online, the timer wasn't on, and while I was trying to pick, it was turned on, and I was skipped, and then, purely by coincidence, Fiddles was around and picked, and there were a whole slew of predrafts behind him, so I was pretty behind the 8-Ball by the time Yuds picked for me.Housh certainly has possibilities in this format, but I'm very bearish on the Bengals this Season, and don't think they have much chance of making the Playoffs. Brees was the last of my Top Tier of QB's with a shot at the SuperBowl, and I don't think it's too far a stretch to say that an Indy/Saints Championship Game could be possible, meaning my two top picks would be playing straight through to the end of this thing.It's just a personal strategy/preference of mine that my two top picks be the most talented Players from the strongest NFL Teams I can get my hands on. For that reason, I had Andre Johnson as my 2nd choice, along with several WR who have yet to be selected. Yes, I have the Texans winning 9+ Games, and making the Playoffs as a Wild Card, and a healthy Andre Johnson putting up sick #'s in the process.Oh, well. It is what it is. Looking forward to making a quality 3.12 Selection in a timely manner.Jiggyonthehut said:
Yeah, that's nice--you might want to think about making another pick. (The two at the turn were pre-drafted).
I'm guessing lunch break at work
I thought the exact same thing, draft 2 at the same time. Maybe he's pacing us.BTW excellent drafting so far, well except for me.yeah I've done it before.it's a long winded trip not a quick race is all I'm thinking.
I am not arguing the value of the pick.Just found it interesting that you chose Gonzo over Gates and KW2.I concluded from the first year of this format that it is pointless to worry about playoff aspirations.

lol
Looks like we may have a spot opening up for next year . . .
Actually I thought you might spot us all that next pick since we let you get the dynamic duo.DLeo??
Not happy with the WRs in the uber tier?? Why? You like the next teir of maybe up and comers better?
same each timeThere was a post by Old Mil saying he picked the wrong guy. I assume it's deleted. I'm pretty sure the timer is a bit off as the time we see is when David changed that for him.one pick since 12:28 CT ?PAE please ask a buddy to look in on this with you if you don't like predrafting.this is ridiculous:
We all knowstuff happens at work or home etc, just get someone to lend a hand then please
I was looking at the projections for the WRs after the top 6; I would include Fitzgerald/Boldin, CJ/Housh, Andre Johnson, and Burress in that tier. There will be probably three big winners in that tier, but I think there will also be two or three underperformers, and it's not really clear to me which will be which. So even though I have them projected to score a good bit more than the RBs remaining, I'm a little shaky on selecting any one individual. I first decided to go with C.Johnson then Lynch in my pre-draft, but even with the Cal connection I couldn't justify it. I changed it to C.Johnson/A.Johnson, and Chad hung around.Biabreakable said:

I didn't take Lynch over Chad Johnson.Gonzo outscored Gates and KW2 by 40 points last year. I don't believe the Browns offense will perform as well as last year, and I think Norv Turner's an idiot. I really don't think there's any logical reason to choose Winslow over Gonzo, and Gates is saddled with an unimaginative coach and a foot injury from which he's not fully recovered.Big-time homer.Biabreakable said:I am not arguing the value of the pick.Just found it interesting that you chose Gonzo over Gates and KW2.I concluded from the first year of this format that it is pointless to worry about playoff aspirations.

because u changed OMs pick 90 mins after his clock expired. gave PAE an extra 90 minutes.
while you're waiting, go ahead and predraft.EDIT: Got the guy I was looking for in Grant. Draft so far is turning out just as I wanted it to. :knocksonwood:

I have been seeing 85 drop a lot in the few drafts I have done this year. People must be sketchy about his colorful personality and the hold out talk. But much like TO Chad is always ready to play and he lays it all out there.Interesting that you see those 6 as a different tier. I think it is pretty easy to see which ones are the winners and which ones will under-perform (if they do). That being said though I don't see any of them failing to meet expectations. The Bengals have their Oline back on track, Andre when healthy competes with Moss, Burress should see targets increase and Boldin just needs to stay healthy.. although he is the most likely to be the weakest performer out of this group imo.
I really appreciate you fighting for our freedom Bia. Still, some have other things that come up that could sidetrack them. I give most of the guys in these threads the benefit of the doubt.
Yeah me too, thanks Bia. I couldn't tell if you were kidding or not.
Keep up the good fight GB
Thank you for your service to our country. Weren't you in Iraq during last years draft or are you still there?
Every year.
