9 firsts next year?

Dunno, make offer, see how you go.
Not well, probably, perhaps, particularly if you repeat an offer of 7th round picks, Goff and 2028 4ths

Offer sent

If I get a chance during the next x months I'll provide some kind of statistical tally of all the rookie draft picks people have made and who has done better and worse....on an average basis as that's fairer given some have more picks than others.

Sure. Just remember when doing that, that while I played in season 1 I didn't draft my team. I think Chadwiko or someone did the 32 player set up draft then quit?

So my first two years were really reshaping a roster I never would have drafted. Much, much tougher than I realised, given we only have six rounds in the rookie draft each year. Got it kind of done eventually, though my roster is very far from perfect still.

I'll only be factoring in rookies drafted by people who drafted them. Old records still show who the team owner was who made a draft pick etc. So there'll be no confusion.

That doesn't address my point. Which is, the folks who did the set up draft have a fair advantage in the first two years, because they got to set up their preferred line-up across multiple positions over 32 + rounds of drafting. If you came along after that, you have way less chances to get a structured roster in place. Also why I have a lot of sympathy for Lenny and Stinger taking over run down teams.

My idea was more of a simpler approach, that you selected someone to draft, so how well did you do

Understood, but the approach and decision making is just so different when you are trying to reshape a roster completely, instead of just plugging a few gaps to top up the 32 you initially chose yourself.

You son of a god damn bitch Dagless

I'd been keeping Lance so close to my chest, figured my moves up to #9 were enough to land him. Good pick campaigner.

Probably shouldve talked him up and how much you wanted him, wouldve scared others away. Works for me

Wait so Wilson is a smoke screen?

suddenly feeling better about liking him

If Lance was in any offense other than KC or SF I'd be far less enthusiastic. From a fantasy perspective he has the coach and tools to pile up some ridiculous fantasy scores. My love for Zach is still much stronger however.

Please consider Helfarch I've got deals to do or picks to make. Will be out from noon

Have set auto pick to keep draft moving, assuming I've done it right, not sure as I'm not on ye Olde faithful tablete, this phone stuff ain't for me

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Helfarch must be more phone adverse than me.

 

[Dagless]

Waddle would have been a better pick at my 1.07 A11dAtP0w3R, I was just desperate at QB.

And I’m deep at offensive positions (without any stars just yet)

Great get at 9.
