There's something to be sure for picks close together but golly there's also something to be said for not having to wait 590 picks between selections.

when doing dynasty setup drafts most people ive found like picking in the second half of the first round. I like in the middle, find it easier to plan coz the wait isnt as long.

Sicily seems a bit undisciplined sometimes so I'll grab King Jake Lever

There is a good advantage being one from the turn, as Les outlined earlier, you can see the guys lineup behind you and make an educated guess as who they will pick next and draft accordingly. Hard to do that for when you've got multiple teams in between your next pick. I dont do this enough myself, usually caught up in my own world and just pick who I like, but sharp guys choose the one off the turn spots in drafts for that reason.

 

[Scythe94]

We're still not at the halfway point There's gonna be some genuinely suss picks later in the draft

Christ, in my head before this started I was gonna be getting Burgoyne and Sam Mitchell in the 8th round lol already feels like some average blokes are getting a run

 

[Dory_77]

Getting harder to choose what to fill out, and maybe early for a ruck, but gonna grab Brad Ottens

I'm usually a better trader than drafter (probably from years of playing SuperCoach primarily). Had the 10th pick (last) in my NBA Fantasy comp this year, and by the end of the season had LeBron, Durant, Booker, Haliburton and Trae Young (all of which went in the first 13 picks or so originally, haha).

Yeah that's a good pick

Plenty of good player who were never AA's, AA is pretty much a joke as we know. Jamming mids out of position anywhere they can.

Yeah I was rolling the dice early tryna guess where people were going but I failed miserably.
Didn't get who I was after and didn't have a backup plan either.

Not too big a deal because there are mostly good players at the top end but my spine is weak as piss.

 

[Crimson Azure]

Theseventhhamster you're up.

 

[Theseventhhamster]

Had three blokes in my top 5-6 three picks ago and I'm going to get all three. Middle of the draft going swimmingly

Me too. Going to end up playing Jake Bowey as my CHB at this rate.

He'll get you in the air, he'll get you on the ground, he'll sing at your mum's wedding (true story) and he'll look like a caricature of 90s culture.

Nice - that was one of the two players left on the board who kicked more career goals than Robbo.

Great pick this late. Id have him in the same tier as Roughy honestly.

Played in the era surrounded by some of the greatest forwards ever so a bit forgotten but he was a gun.
