Who is yahoo's best available?

I have an hour drive home then will be packing for a long weekend hiking out in the Adirondacks. No service so I'd like to get my pick in and not leave you all waiting.

Keenen Allen

[Slow Ben]

Oops. Nevermind, should have read the rest of the thread.

[Vengeance]

Really it is Keenan Allen and not mike Evans? Wow does yahoo rankings suck

[Slow Ben]

Well, he's next, if that helps.

But yeah.

[Stalker]

Just pulled Yahoo's rankings and it looks like it should be mike Evans. Either way, I'm leaving my pick with Venge now so should be set. Enjoy the weekend all.


Edit: Actually - Mobile version of rankings was giving individual picks not overall. I'll pick Allen for Shin and do my pick as well.

Have a good weekend.

So I found shins work email via Google fu.... Should I try to contact him there.

[Daser]

Your Yahoo rankings should look better now because i took the 2 players neither of you guys wanted.

I hope they dont have broken legs both of them.

Worth a shot. I mean, he'll be grumpy and unhappy with his (auto)draft so far, but he is part of the furniture in our league.

[Vengeance]

Ok so I sent him an email at what I hope is a work email and not something else completely random. I couldn't find his address or phone number. I might be able to do that if I go for broke. But that is a little stalkerish so I have held off.

[HoosierDaddy]

You just emailed Random Guy. Random Guy is now part of our league. I blame Rafi on you!!!!!

Fine. But I gave him your address to record his art film "Hoosyourdaddy!" so have fun cleaning up the lube.

For ever unclean sink,washmachine,couch,drapes,bedpost. For ever unclean!

[Vengeance]

So from what I can see Shin's next auotpick will be

Eric Decker NYJ - WR


Does that jive with what you see SB?

[Vengeance]

Still can't find his number or address. On the plus side there doesn't seem to be any accident reports for his name....so..

[Slow Ben]

Yeah, it was Decker.


So from now on, with no objections, we'll skip the 12 hours for Shins pick.

[Vengeance]

Yeah I am fine with that.

[Stalker]

Sounds good.


Edit - will our autodraft pick a complete team for Shin? By the end of the draft, next best available would likely not include a def or K, but rather stack WR / RB. Does that matter or will Shin have to go to waiver wire?

HD has less than 30 minutes on his pick clock? But since he has 2 picks in a row might as well give him another 12 hours. I mean, Id probably love for him to get two auto picks, because we pick nearly the same, and hes taken the pick i had wanted each round so far, but hes probably close to waking up soon, so might as well wait and see.

Edit - hour and half^

Can I ask a question then, I am genuinely curious to the answer.

Why have those TE's gone, other than Gronk, ahead of Tylar Eifert? As he got me some monster points last year.

Ankle ligament surgery may not be available for start of season !

Well Both Reed and Olson had monster years as well and are either considered the top passing target of their respective offenses or are the QB's safety valve.

Olson had 125 targets from cam newton last year. By far the most targeted receiver on the team.
Reed - 87 recpetions and 11 tds. With shit QB's last year and missing two games. That is a huge talent.

Eifert - had 13 tds but only 615 yards which means that if he doesn't get tds then his points aren't going to be there. He was also injured for 3 games and had surgery in the off season. Ankle surgery with a 3 month recovery period. Which means no training camp and no preseason games. Which means that it will take him a while to get up to speed in the offense. So potentially less use this year. Still a great TE. But he isn't going to jump off the board in the 4th round.
