9-ShanRawr) Trent Richardson - RB - CLE

[Tapper]

Back before the start of the real season, apparently.
In other news, Kenny Britt is having some more discipline issues.

Britt makes another boneheaded move
Kenny Britt, WR, TEN

News: On the same day Titans receiver Kenny Britt said he'll take whatever punishment the NFL deems necessary for his DUI arrest at an army base in July, he lashed out at the team on social media for fining him $9,915 earlier in the day for missing a rehab session for his knees. According to numerous reports, Britt used his Instagram account on Wednesday to post a photo of the fine sheet for missing a rehab workout, adding a message that included several obscenities, as well as: "Walk back to dis..Don't dey know I have kids." Britt is working his way back from three surgeries on his knees since September, the first of which was for a torn ACL and MCL suffered last September.

Hopefully Richardson will only be out for two weeks. It would be nice if at least one of my top two RBs was able to start on Week 1.

Not great news but not the end of the world either. WCS he is out for 6 weeks so he rides my bench for 2 weeks. BCS he's out 4 and plays in week one.

Fingers crossed that he's make a speedy recovery.

AND we have our first fuckup!
Stalker, McGahee was taken a few rounds ago, please try again.

[Stalker]

heh, sorry to be that guy. I've been tracking picks on yahoo pre-draft rankings and must have missed just one.

[Vengeance]

Bliss I am pretty sure that twelves pick of big Ben is ben rothsenburg.

[HoosierDaddy]

You mean you can't draft a clock tower?

Fucking 1.21 gigawatts had this thing wrapped up!

HD hast already corrected me. I had hoped his injuries had kept him from being picked when I didn't see that alphabet he calls a name in the list. Didn't think to search for 'Ben'....

Question: does the Waiver Wire kick in as soon as draft has ended (aka, can I try and get a handcuff outside of draft in time for the season openings)?

[HoosierDaddy]

As far as I can recall the wire (which isn't really the waiver wire until after the first week and is actually just add/drop) doesn't kick in until after the first regular season week. Up until then you can exchange players from your team with Free Agents at your leisure.

Interesting to see how people are drafting.

I was hoping we were drafting 15 rounds which gave me a 5th option at either RB or WR and backups at QB & TE.

Just listed everyones picks to see who looks strong and I must admit there are a few head scratchers !

Whoever has Bliss in week 6 has to be happy 6 of 10 picks ( so far ) for that week are on the bye ! Better find some good backups Bliss !!

Both Venge 5 WR & Shanrawr 5 RB probably going to go with no backup TE I'm guessing ..... Interesting.

Shanrawr & Tattersail both picked RB's likely to be on the PUP ( Peterson & Mendenhall )

Personally I need my RB's to come through big time .... took a major risk not drafting them until 7th round but quite pleased to find starters still available.

So does anyone else have any thoughts on who has done well/badly so far !

Thanks
That means there's no benefit to drafting a 1 QB/1 TE/ 6 RB/6 WR team and acquiring a K or DEF outside of draft as it just means exchanging them for someone I drafted, I guess.

[HoosierDaddy]

Unless you drafted someone that gets hurt. Then it becomes important that you can immediately replace. Unless that person is on the "Can't Waive List", which the top 40 or so players are on. Then you just have to suck it up and wait.
