True enough. I've got a few I think will double up already--even at 4x weeks.If they do the 6x bye weeks again you can have you're roster devastated in a hurry.His team looks well covered to me.hes waiting for 7pmRudy was just here...
I highly doubt that anyone will find a player in the 20th round that will make or break his team to cover a bye-week scenario. Yes there might be someone who gets drafted at this late stage who breaks through because of injury to players ahead of him but to draft a player solely based on bye-week coverage is not realistic IMHO.If they do the 6x bye weeks again you can have you're roster devastated in a hurry.His team looks well covered to me.hes waiting for 7pmRudy was just here...

What irritates me is that we openly discussed trying to finish before 7PM, and we even asked if anyone had a problem with it.When nobody spoke up, it was universally assumed that we would make an honest attempt to finish. That was more then realistic since we had only 1.5 rounds to go, and our normal weekday pace should have covered that EASILY.If Rudy didn't want to go with that plan, he should have said so THEN, and we could have stopped BEFORE the 20th round. In my mind, to purposefully say NOTHING, and then not draft, is taking an unfair liberty. In past years, you couldn't blame somebody, but it was openly discussed here.I say we either skip him and try to finish, or we erase all 20th round picks.
Doesn't really matter to me--I'm just antsy to finish with the schedule I've got this week. Not like there's a whole lot to think about with my squad--probable bye week conflicts with Car/NO and Min/GB--pick one and try to cover! 
BnB had the solution and we declined--thought unanimously, but as posted above it's not like this pick will make or break a team. If Rudy sleeps better knowing the damage beforehand then he can have it as far as I'm concerned.ETA--I'm easy. If anyone wants to Atomic Punk's suggestion seems like the answer here.
Not sure what to do here. Who's to define an honest attempt. Learned a long time ago that past performance doesn't guarantee future results. The problem is that as I left things it was solely up to each individual if they wanted to pick or wait. Was a universial agreement reached??? I don't know.
Thats what happend when you let BSS draft for you...bicycle_seat_sniffer said:

This is still my pick, but I would still like to hold the draft until the morning and let anyone from the first half of round 20 change if need be.As for me...I don't see a QB who might save my #### week 4
Bass gets proactive, and there is still whining about the schedule release. Ugh.This is still my pick, but I would still like to hold the draft until the morning and let anyone from the first half of round 20 change if need be.As for me...I don't see a QB who might save my #### week 4
Great pick, I've been eyeballing him for the last two rounds, but thought I may be able to senak him in the last round.I'm out until the morning.
it wasn't about the schedule release, but about intentionally ignoring the prevailing theme/idea we had about it. I'm not pissed that Rudy wanted to wait for the schedule. I'm pissed that he said nothing while we all talked about finishing before that schedule came out. If he wasn't on board with finishing, then he should have said so 2 days ago when we discussed it.FWIW....this didn't even directly effect me. My pick was after his and him waiting was potentially a bigger boon to me then anyone else but him.Bass gets proactive, and there is still whining about the schedule release.

Don't mind doing just that--but it's going to take a few while I figure this out. Y'all snatched up all the RB's I was interested in--and week 4 could be tough on them.
Oddly enough, I came int the 20th needing a RB (with 2 Oakland backs, figured I had to take a fifth).My list (written back in the 20th) wastex said:

K. Smith
They all went in the final round, almost in that order!
Not only did we finish, but that last pick was well within the normal time limits. I agree that people shouldn't put off picking to gain an advantage...but there was no advantage to be gained in BK's case. IN fact, there was a distinct DISadvantage.The concern I had was with how Rudy waited knowing we were trying to finish AND knowing we had discussed it openly 2 days prior.
