He is going to be home in a hour or so and will make his pick then.

After he makes a pick otherwise my pick could influence his decision maybe.

Tatts left his picks with me, but they are confusing. However, I'm fairly sure about this last one and he said Brujah knew about it as well. I'm not going to make his next pick for him, I'm not going to be an enabler.

Meh. It can't be so hard to number picks in order of preference, can it?

Ugh I'm still unsure about that Sankey pick. It could be a reach, but he's easily the best back there and they should run the ball a lot.

Still think the biggest reach so far was Luck at 2.10 though.

It may annoy you Tapper but I did leave instructions to pick Stafford and then Newton but at least now I can weigh that second decision.

After a careful review of what I wanted to do (get two QB's, I have decided against it)

Instead, after quite a long deliberation, I have went with what I call, a risk!

Well, it's an odd round, so are we assuming Shin is going to time out?

I guess your choice was interpreted as "if Stafford is picked, pick Newton" instead of "pick Stafford AND Newton no matter what."

Two QBs would have been rather odd, especially if you pick two just-below-the-top-guys guys.

I was thinking of alternating them each week and making the people who have yet to pick a QB have an even lower grade than they planned for. Instead I went with what would best improve my team.

The effect of a lower QB grade for everyone else would be annoying, but survivable, I think. At best, it would have created a QB run, although the people picking directly after you are already supplied with one, which could dampen the effect.

I don't have a problem with that Stafford pick. I think he'll have a better year (points wise) than Luck, but I certainly wouldn't have doubled up on QBs. (Brujah doesn't have a QB yet, so if you really wanted Stafford, that was the right pick there).

I'm not going to go further with who I think you should pick since I've got a little cheat sheet over here and I'm hoping some people (WRs) will drop to my pick in the sixth so I can pick up a good-ish WR core.

Picking two QBs like that really isn't going to effect the people who don't have them yet, since most of the rest are sort of a jumble in the middle. It would have given you fourth and fifth round picks that you sit half the time. It's like you are giving up a pick (and a roster spot) for no reason.

I wasn't going to pick two QBs in a row for him. Didn't want to enable crazy. Understood what he wanted, fyi.

Left my picks with Obdi.
