Sterling Archer Posted July 6, 2010 Author Share Posted July 6, 2010 Aye he's my back up plan was hoping to be able to pick up Smith or Bradford though with my next pickah well back to the drawing board. With all the moves for QB's it has left a few decent players in other positions still available Exactly . With Rodgers as my #1 I hopefully will only need a bye week filler, don't really need a backup. Would be nice to have though if someone falls.

Peebo Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Question?presumably, when someone trades away a draft pick from 2011, this is on the assumption that their team will participate next year. What if they don't? Will the replacement team then be left without the draft picks traded away by the team who held the slot the prior year??

Yeah its been ok, The only problem is I cant really plan ahead as most of the players usually go and its a new set of players I have to look at. Some of the players I did want usually go a few picks before mine which is a bit annoying. Happy with most of my picks so far. Also u can count me in for the auction league before I forget. Should be good been looking to do one of those for a while. Edited July 6, 2010 by Darth Ewing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good pick though, I wasn't sure how aware people would be of him. Was my next pick aswell gutted!!?!?! Was so close to taking him with my last pick but thought id better select a young QB with the way the draft has been going. Hopefully get my next pick out of the way today off to T in the Park 2morrow so would be good to get it done before hand. Suppose thats a good thing about having two g so close together although it is a nightmare trying to predict how things are going to go.

Don't feel so bad now. Since you're next up you could use the pre-draft selection feature. Just select two guys and you'll get the top one on the list when Darth Ewing picks.

Right shall i pick up a RB or WR. I wasn't confident about either of the WR picks. Couple of guys I passed on that I rated pretty evenly, hope it doesn't bite me in the ass. Surprised you were after Clausen. I think people are sleeping on Matt Moore who I'd be surprised to see lose the job this year. I was going to have a go at predicting who you'd pick but it's nearly impossible now. So many guys close together, please don't pick my RB pick though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not expecting a great deal from him this year but he has the potential to go on and become an elite QB in the future. Plus think its only a matter of time before he takes over from Moore as the starter. Think you made the right choice taking a RB there isnt alot of depth left at that position Edited July 7, 2010 by gibby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucky Thompson Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 I was tempted to go for Devin Thomas 2 picks ago as he's been tipped in many places to have a breakout year this year but went for Chez Schilens instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Del1812 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) Sorry about the screw up earlier with the draft . That's it fixed. It's cool pal. Like I said, I could see where the confusion came from. Plus the system was a bit dodgy the last time I tried to do two pre-draft selection picks in a row. Decent pickups for the 11/12th rounds. Bess should start as number two in Miami and will get some decent looks as everyone gangs up on Marshall. If Henne continues his progression and has a good year then I could be in business with this one. As for Ward, he's one (very possible) Cadillac Williams injury away from being a starter.
