I think injuries are really the main risk. Problem is, the same goes for Foster.

No weekend break for the fucking draft? For the record, I would have taken Randall Cobb, not Jeffrey.

As for the my 2nd pick and all the people screaming "too soon", I am taking a chance. Why? Because the actual elite QB's are gone, and I fucking hate being left with the dregs. I play in 2 other leagues, and in those QB's are important so I have a bit of a prejudice. Last year (and not only last year), I have been fucked by inconsistent QB play despite serious awesomeness produced by my RB's and WR's. I will no longer trust my teams to Eli Manning and RGIII and hope the rest of the players pick up the slack.

We've never had weekend breaks for drafts. It's time consuming enough as it is, Shin. That being said, I obviously love Andrew Luck and think he's the tits, but his interior o-line is absolute shit, despite having Wayne, Hilton, Nicks, Fleener, and Allen.
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

In a league that counts Td as 6 points QB are worth a lot more. I agree with you shin.
How many fucking people do I have to hammer in order to get that across.

Otoh, I think that Gronk pick was probably way too early.

I think he wouldn't have made it out of this round. And if he did, I'd have picked him in the next.

It was, but IMO he was the last top flight TE on the board.

Assuming he manages to play and doesn't keep getting hurt. That's my only worry with him. He's a top flight TE, I agree, but those injuries are piling up. It's why I went Thomas so early.

Damn you Stalker. I was hoping for Mathews on the return. Now to figure if I reach for Tate or Jennings or go for another WR.
I don't know what I'm doing but it sounds good.

I don't think Jennings was a bad choice there, especially with the latest Wilson rumors and with you grabbing a QB early. Besides you've managed to grab a few players I wanted too in DT and Bush.

Hd you are incorrect I have no bias when it comes to FFB. It is all math. I had nick as the 4th ranked QB and balanced out against the remaining players the only player higher was the gronc since he was gone the decision was to take my 4th ranked QB or a 2nd lv Rb. A no brainer in my book. Also I didn't want Stratford as that would give me to much downside on Detroit. Strat was ranked next down. FYI luck was below that.

Now I could have gone for a low end lv1 wr but a lv1 QB wins that also. I might have been able to pick him up in the 4th but I doubt it.


The issue here isn't how good Foles/Eagles are. The issue is how much better is Foles compared to the rest of the QBs on the board against how much better is that WR/RB compared to the rest of the ones available. I don't think the Eagles are going to be as good this year as they were last year.

Also, I think it would be fun for us all, after we have finished the draft, to vote for the best 3 drafted teams, and see how well they do in the season.

Yeah, and it means she has a pretty good flex. It also means she has to draft an additional RB sometime soon for her main line-up.
Problem there is that Venge, Shin, Obdi and Brujah all draft twice before her next turn, and they all have 1 RB only as well.

Aye, she's going to have fun doing plug and play RBs.

I figure it's better than potentially doing that for RBs and WRs :p

That fully depends on your definition of fun :p
