Nucky Thompson Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 I must have the biggest flop in the whole draft, Antonio Bryant at the 89th pick What was I thinking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 hmmm, Marshall no longer on the block? would be interested.... There isn't a single player I wouldn't trade if the offer was right..so feel free to make an offer for him/fitz/flacco anyone. Though I get the feeling coming to an agreement won't be easy. I had to take him off the block after a good weekend, it devalues him if It looks like I'm trying to get rid. Happy to keep him, happy to trade if it makes sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sterling Archer Posted September 28, 2010 Author Share Posted September 28, 2010 Looking back at my draft I'm actually pretty happy with my first five picks. Rodgers, Matthews, Wells, Nicks and Bryant. I've had a lot of injury troubles, especially at RB but because of these guys youth I don't think it's hurt their long term potential, I built my team looking at winning next year. Things start to go off track after that, again the injury bug hit and M.Bush at 7.01 hasn't panned out atall, still holding out hope for him. I also got ahead of myself thinking I could nab Benn at 7.07 (the more highly hyped at the time) and then come back and get Mike Williams later, didn't quite work out that way and I'd obviously rather have Williams. I still think Benn has huge potential and it was nice to see him get on the field this week for a bit. Absolutely love my TE's, especially Moeaki who has been amazing, I really wanted Hernandez but Geoff nipped in and stole him, Moeaki's not a bad consolation at pick 249. Freeman seems to be a great young qb and good value at #164 (the 30th QB off the board!) From my 11th round picks: D.Thomas (bust so far) Starks (on PUP, we'll see if he can do anything later in the season) M.Thomas (happy with him, held back by Garrard) Gaffney (delighted, just what I expected) Late picks of BJGE, Douglas and the Waiver wire addition of Goodson all look to be quite good.

He won't/can't be suspended by the league under the current CBA I don't think as it's his driving offence. Jailtime I'm not sure about.

Never knew that, Just heard them talking about suspensions and jail time at the weekend...And then when I saw the trade offer I thought someone was trying to pull the wool over my eyes Some catch. 249th pick. 12 receptions, 125yards, 2 TD's.

Del1812 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Not making an offer for Britt then? I'm torn whether I would like to move someone anyway. Despite being 0-3 there are parts of my team that I really like for the future. F-Jax may not be getting a look in this year but he's a 1,000 yard rusher and will likely get the chance to prove it next season, assuming the Bills shift him. I've got Ryan Grant to come back from injury and will likely spend my first draft pick (looking like a high one) on another running back. At present Forsset isn't a bad back-up to have. Elsewhere in the team, i'm pretty loaded at WR but still lack someone (other than Moss) to put good numbers up on a weekly basis. Also solid at TE and QB (where Favre's eventual retirement will give me three starters). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have done a deal if you had a really talented rookie/22-25 year old instead of Edwards. I don't think I could risk taking Golden Tate, and Percy Harvin has sleep/migraine issues which might be a problem down the line. That leaves Steve Smith unless you can think of something elaborate involving Jahvid Best,or Mark Sanchez. Andre J, S smith, Best, and Sanchez 4 guys I'd be interested in...

Del1812 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 (edited) Just wondering. Has anyone put any bets on for the NFL this season? It's a bit earlier than I would normally be backing a team to win it all but I've been looking closely at the Steelers odds. They are still priced at 12/1 on bet365. Very tempted to put the bet on this early because I have a feeling those odds will drop like a stone once Big Ben comes back. They've managed to win two games by only scoring one offensive touchdown and then blew out a 2-0 team with a 4th string quarterback.

But then no team looks great yet. If I had to choose another bet right now I'd take the Packers, but I missed last nights game and read they were pretty terrible?

They're trying to get fans on their side and say they're losing out to owners and then wasting money like that when a lot of people are jobless, it's not going to endear them to fans.

Only thing I can think might be confusing is the waiver wire, everything else is pretty simple. Your roster limit is 30 but the previous owner only had 25 guys so you've got some room to manoeuvre.
