2007 Draft discussion

[Vikings4ever]

No brainer. AD is a huge talent, and he's a homer pick. :jerk:

[thedanzone]

[rurbaniak]

Damn you homers!! :screams: AS if I expected anything less.. :weary:

[AUKidJoshH]

I'm out of pocket with a work block, but can be gotten via email. I'm also going to email Dan my phone number and you can text me if I'm up.

[whoisjgalt]

We need Autumn Wind in this league.

[rurbaniak]

Anyone been in contact with Hoo? Seem him around, does he know were drafting now?

[grandpahoo]

Waiting to hear back from Wilzy about a potential trade. If I don't hear back soon I'll go ahead and pick.

Okay, wasn't sure if you'd been around.. :D

[bigmarc27]

for the record, I'm 99% sure my 1.12 will be available to trade for if you're interested...

[grandpahoo]

FYI, JaMarcus Russell is now on the block, along with Carson Palmer, Vince Young, and Drew Brees. Non-sucky RBs needed. Also, keep in mind that there is only a 25% chance that I'll remember to respond to your offer. If you start off lowballing, that number will probably drop to 0%.

[whoisjgalt]

Non-sucky RBs needed.

Please define your terminology. Examples might help. Like is Warrick Dunn sucky or non-sucky? :poke:

[Orgazmo]

y'allz jus bitchez an hoz :finger:

Also with Bowe gone, this pick is for sale. :sadbanana:

[thedanzone]

Also with Bowe gone, this pick is for sale. :sadbanana:

I'll pass, but thanks anyway!

PM at Sanc.

[whoisjgalt]

Also with Bowe gone, this pick is for sale. :sadbanana:

I'll PM you at your place.

[Wilzone]

I'm not going to pick until a little bit later today when I get home from work. I'm considering trade offers and I want access to RTS to do some thinking.

I'm thinking about doing major rebuilding, so guys like Edgerrin James, Thomas Jones, Darrell Jackson, Terry Glenn and Joe Horn might be available for younger talent and/or draft picks.

Antonio Gates and Steve Smith could be gotten for the right price.

I'm waiting to hear back from Torrid. After that I'll either shit or get off the pot. Sorry for the wait.

[Orgazmo]

:jerkoff:

[Wilzone]

Anyone have Torrid's phone number? :wigglypea:

Just because I'm such a nice fucking guy, if I don't hear from Torrid soon I'll just make my pick.

[Wilzone]

Again, I apologize for holding this up.

I guess I like Irons. :dunno: I've never seen him play and know nothing about him so I've got that going for me, which is nice. :hyper:

I don't need you helping torrid. Irons is FANtastic!@#


I guess. Never saw him.


Heard he was small.

[AUKidJoshH]

Irons is an LSU back. I like him, and was hoping he'd slip down to me in round 2 because he's in Cincy, but I guess that was unrealistic.

I imagine everyone had me taking Quinn if they mocked it out this far. Not that I need another QB, but it covers me with Cleveland's situation (for Frye), and I like Quinn better than Russell anyway.

1. Nice job covering the Cleveland QB situation. Seriously, you can never have even Browns quarterbacks. Maybe Brian Sipe will slip to you in the second round.

2. Regarding Russell vs. Quinn, if I remember correctly, you drafted Big Fat Byron Leftwich over Carson Palmer a few years ago. So there's that.

ALSO!@#^ I forgot how much fun it is to be an internet dick. :hyper:

[grandpahoo]

Also, I'm at a client all day tomorrow, so can someone shoot me an email when I'm up? I can't promise I'll be able to respond right away due to the fact that I'll be doing very important lawyer things, but I'll do my best.

Didn't Irons go to Auburn? :headscratch:

[bigmarc27]

He went to SoCar and then Auburn... no LSU. He's a good player and I likely would've taken him at 1.12.

Also Torrid's pick gives me a good idea on who I will take... I'm fielding a few offers though so give me an hour or so (might be sooner though).

[Wilzone]

Since my focus is shifting to rebuilding, I really like Meachem's long-term potential in that offense. :hyper:

[thedanzone]

I was hoping the TE dropped to me. I considered moving a spot or two yesterday, but I'm glad I stood on my 2.03. The last two years I think I just missed out on the rookie TE.

[bigmarc27]

There were a couple of players at 1.12 I liked, but none blew my socks off. I think my team has a shot at repeating, so I went with instant help. If KJones is healthy, I have a 4 back rotation. If not, I can plug Edge in behind Westbrook and Portis/Betts. Also, Edge is still *only* 29. I figure he's got 2-3 more decent years left.

I like my RB stable: Westbrook, Portis, Edge, KJones, Betts, Morency.

[Orgazmo]

I think my team has a shot at repeating,

:hmpf

[rurbaniak]

I'll be out of pocket for a few hours. Dan call me when I'm up if I don't post I'm back..

Gonzo still available at #16 was a shocker to me.

Also also also, what Jonesy said. :pray:

[thedanzone]

Also also also, what Jonesy said. :pray:

I certainly thought about him, because I need to rebuild my Wrs as well, but I needed a TE too.

Plus I think his success, if any will come outside of IND. Harrison and Wayne are locked in there for years. I think Gonzo will fall away like the St Louis group of Holt, Bruce, Curtis and McDonald. The two studs stayed and the two newbies left.

[bigmarc27]

Dan, you have a pm.

[Vikings4ever]

:sadbanana:

[whoisjgalt]

HooHoo sent me a list, so I can post his pick after Bernie decides.

[Vikings4ever]

Got a stud RB, and a QB and WR in good situations. Liking my draft so far.

[Orgazmo]

Not a player I figured I would draft, but a top ten pick near the end of the second round? Why not.

Cameron said. "He's coming here as a kick returner first. He'll need to do a lot of studying for that. And then a receiver and he'll learn."

He'll be a kick returner, and thats it. :yes:

[Orgazmo]

Players drafted this late have done worse. Stash guy for now.

:yes: Also, I already have my fill of OSU guys, last year..

[whoisjgalt]

In all my other leagues Ginn has gone before Smith & Hill. While I like those two better, I'd say that he's good value after them at pick 21.

[Orgazmo]

In all my other leagues Ginn has gone before Smith & Hill. While I like those two better, I'd say that he's good value after them at pick 21.

I've done very little research on the guy because I had no intention of taking him. I like Hill, don't care about Smith, but one thing can't be argued... Ginn will get a million chances to succeed or fail.

I understand he's a big as Kenny Irons, but faster. :hyper:

If all else fails, you can use him to make a martini. :dunno:

[bigmarc27]

I tried trading up like 5x to get Ginn... He was my pick at 1.12 actually if I wasn't able to trade out. So, O, if you're not sold on him then I'll trade you for him. I won't overpay but I am interested if you want to throw me an offer.

For the record, I think he's getting bashed on only because Brady Quinn was still on the board. If Quinn had gone before the Dolphins pick, I think Ginn wouldn't get bashed at all and likely would be a consensus top 12 fantasy player in the rookie drafts.

[rurbaniak]

I see Ginn being a Desmond Howard. His value is awesome in the NFL, but in this league means nothing.

[Orgazmo]

Why just Howard? Why not Holmes?

He could fail as a receiver or he could be the next Santana Moss or Steve Smith. But at this stage of the draft there is very little hand wringing on my part.

Mongo, what have you offered the others?

[Wilzone]

For those of you in the running to win the championship, Terry Glenn is available for your fraft pick!!!

You may laugh, but he's a 1,000 yard receiver that will bring you more immediate value than any 2nd round rookie could.

[GratefulTed]

I sent(FAI pm) Orgazmo a list for my 3.02 pick.

Wilzone check sanctuary pm-age before you leave if you're around.

[torridjoe]

It really does look like DeDe will back up Addai, and apparently Dungy may try to have him play the Rhodes role from last year. Either way, he's a useful handcuff and the scouts just love the guy. People were shocked the Bengals left him unprotected.

Plus now I have a guy named DeDe on my team!:hyper: :hyper:

I took him in Requiem and the Organization seems sold on him as the back-up. I think he's a legit sleeper this year.

[bigmarc27]

Also, I'm waiting for Wilzone to get back to me on one thing... as soon as that happens, I'll pick.

[torridjoe]

:clap: :clap:

I basically figure the draft after round 1 is such a crapshoot that if I get a player after that who looks like they might actually see the field in 2007, I'm happy. 2/3 of the guys drafted last year after Rd 1 are probably still sitting on waivers right now, right?

[whoisjgalt]

Dan,

I have updated the individual draft rounds threads for the trades, but haven't updated RTS yet.

Certainly appreciated!

I have already updated everything at RTSports.

They seem to want Croyle to succeed in KC. Huard is old and Green is gone, so for the time being he's at least the future. With the TEs & RBs gone and already having two WRs I like from this draft, why not? And he's younger than Beck (younger, not better).

[bigmarc27]

sent my 3.06 pick to Galt and Dan...

I'll be offline most of the rest of Wednesday starting soon, so Dan you might need to forward that to someone else if you can't be around.

FFToday projects him at 1072 yards, 5 TDs.
Footballguys has him 918 yards, 6 TDs.

Not often you can get a team's number 1 WR in the 4th round of a rookie draft.:dunno:

[GratefulTed]

I was planning on picking him (Wade), then I relized who was picking ahead of me and started thinking about another player.:sadbanana:

[Orgazmo]

I thought about him, but V4E continued to pass on him, so I figured he wasn't worth much.

Because he sucks.

Also, hoo, I was hoping no one would drag up Leftwich over Palmer. Clearly, I've learned my lesson!

[Vikings4ever]

I thought about him, but V4E continued to pass on him, so I figured he wasn't worth much.

I was gambling that he would slip through the cracks. That and he wasn't worth a 2nd round pick.

Not that he's worth much, but for a 4th round pick in the rookie draft, I'll gladly grab him.:dunno:

[Wilzone]

hey V4E - Do you go to the Sanctuary anymore? Would it be better to PM you here?

I almost pulled the trigger on Hester with my last 2 picks... incredible speed and vision. It's too bad he can't catch.

Trent Edwards is a talented QB with only JP Loserman between him and a starting gig. I think he has a chance. :dunno:

at least 22 starting NFL QBs couldn't muster up a passer rating as good as Losman's last year, and Jauron said there's no competition for the job. Good luck with all of THAT. :)

[Wilzone]

Josh - You have a PM.

[whoisjgalt]

How long do we let Torrid have before he has to wait 'til the June 27th FCFS to get his 26th guy?

[thedanzone]

I e-mailed him today letting him know he was up and will forfeit his pick if he doesn't pick before free agency. He responded saying he was out of town since Friday.

I'll take a majority call on this, but the simple rules were a 24 hour timer.

yes, I can't think of anything more compelling than monitoring the draft board for the second to last pick of a rookie draft...in June. :yes:
