PM next "You're Up", following "On Deck", the 3rd up "In the hole"

Other courteous drafting tips:

PM a list if away

Have an idea before your next turn

Have an idea for your turn after that

I get a PM, have an idea before my pick, if I can only PM from the cell, I PM the guy before me in case he is still around and the guy after me so I don't hold up the draft and he knows it's his turn after he post my pick.

and prep

Quarterbacks.....Green 5

Running Backs....Red 3

Wide Receivers...Blue 5

Tight Ends.........Purple 5

Defenses............Grey 4

Kickers................Orange 4

Didn't you hear? AJ named Turner the starter. Apparently LT made AJ mad so he'w going to release him and go with "his guy" Turner.

Likewise! Could be a pretty quick core lineup for drafting I think....

1.03 RB Brian Westbrook

I'll PM next.

 

[Thom Yorke]

If anyone after Jabroni wants to hit me with a pm, feel free.

Thanks! Sending pm's with a short list to you and to ffdude69 in case I'm not online.

[Captain Hook]

Three more hours and you can ask Duke1948 what to do (drop him down til he shows; drop him to 16 or replace with the next callup who goes to 16 and everyone moves up one)

Does he even know this started though?

He was on yesterday but might not have looked at the myriad of threads.

Of course he is not Mr. Speedy under any conditions.....

 

[Duckboy]

We had this situation in PDSL2. BnB's answer was he gets dropped to 16 with everyone moving up 1 slot correspondingly. 4 hr clock when he comes back on at 16 (and for remainder of draft). If still no pick when that clock expires, replaced from next league down (from list in PDSL since there was no bracketing for moveups).

Sounds good, hopefully he makes it in today, BUT there is a list of people to move up that BnB left in one of the thread and that is why the different leagues are spaced out to start every two days. party on

That makes sense to me.

This is my understanding of the rules as well.

 

[Pictus Cat]

Jabroni moved to 16th pick

4 hour clock

Will be replaced if not back for 16th pick

We managed only 5 picks on the first day?

There's a reason you guys don't get to swim with the big boys in SSL1.

 

[LHUCKS]

when does Evil time out?

At this pace I'll be moving up to the #7 pick.

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

I'll be back sometime in August to make my round 1 pick.

 

[glumpy]

when does Evil time out?At this pace I'll be moving up to the #7 pick.

12:27 pm EDT my my clock. He's generally on top of these so I suspect he'll be in.

8 hour clockclock is turned off 12am - 8am EST

 

[bundy1]

I'm leaving for most of the day...I PMed Glumpy my short list ( hope thats okay ) will be back in afternoon

Got it! I'll be on-and-off through the afternoon...

And here I thought I was holding up the draft by not showing up until 10:20am.

1.09 Joseph Addai, RB, IND

 

[Thom Yorke]

Progress!

Interesting to note that Larry Johnson's status as a top 3 lock seems to be in jeopardy, judging from the first two SSL's.

per pm bundy1 takes:

1.10 RB Laurence Maroney, NE

Via PM, Pictus selects:

1.09 Joseph Addai, RB, IND

LOVE that pick at 9.

 

[Evilgrin 72]

1.09 Joseph Addai, RB, IND

LOVE that pick at 9.

I came very close to picking him at #6 over Gore, but Gore has shown me he can do it by himself for 16 games, while Addai will be doing that for the first time.

Gore at 6 is also a heck of a value.

Glad to see we're finally moving a little. I was beginning to think this was the slow boat to nowhere.

Thanks. I had Gore and Addai at #5 and #6 on my PPR board.

Last time Norv Turner left a team, the old RB suffered quite a dive in PPR.

 

[AB in DC]

1.09 Joseph Addai, RB, IND

LOVE that pick at 9.

If this were August and not May, I would have taken him at 1.03. But I suspect that Indy will bring in someone to share touches like Rhodes did last year.

I have an awfully hard time not penciling him in within my top 5. LT

LJ (I still believe)

Gore?/Addai?/Westbrook?/Bush?

That's about how I've got them right now, until any more moves shake out. Sitting at 4 and having had LJ last year I wanted to go a different route in this draft; it was a tossup between the remaining choices...

Who else would they bring in who would significantly affect Addai's carries? Maybe an older vet to steal some short yardage carries, but as it stands now I don't see anyone out there who would be able to keep Addai off the field on first down or in passing situations. As an Addai owner, I think I would have been more concerned about the Colts taking a big back like Tony Hunt in the draft.

We can take this to the Shark Pool, but I could easily see Corey Dillon or Chris Brown taking over the Rhodes role.
