[quote6096187="Taco"]Thanks again, Joe. I've been away for most of the weekend and haven't been able to keep an eye on the draft. I'm happy with the pace of the draft right now - we've got until Tuesday morning to finish the draft and still be able to run the next free agency stage on Wednesday morning. I think we can do it.

Right now I'm wondering why Huntington Beach's utility is on but their pick hasn't been made. Any ideas?[/quote6096187]
Sorry guys. I was away this weekend and got home late. I had stocked picks in the util and it made my last pick for me (a WR). All but one of my selections had been drafted by the time it came around again. I had selected "Don't pick the same position in consecutive rounds" and my one remaining picks was a WR.

With the great utility provided to us by VPI this draft should fly after the first round, second at the latest. All anyone has to do is key in on 10-15 guys, plug it in then define your needs and put them in IE: Best available ?? put no same position in consecutive rounds and you are done the draft is done 1 day after the 2nd round. I think with this utility we need to make it mandatory that teams use it!

[quote7738670="thater"][quote7738670="GoldenEagle"]I got the best running back in the draft in the 5th round.[/quote7738670]

?????

I think he is the best available after the last updated filed which took every player draft 4.23 and higher off the draft preview screen.[/quote7738670]

Ameche will have the best career of any back in this draft. Mark it down.

Bug is on FOFC now and I just pm'ed him, so hopefully he gets over here to make his pick tonight.

It is an interesting topic. We should do betting about it.

All,

I'm not going to be near a computer for most of today. I've stocked about 10 guys on my list to be drafted. That should carry me through my 6th round pick.

Sorry if there's a delay because of me.

Hey, after watching from the sideline all you guys draft for the last 160 odd picks, I finally get a chance to draft again soon. I don't think I
've ever been so excited for a 6.17 pick... :D

I don't have game access right now, so can someone give me a reasonable pick for San Antonio and I'll make the pick for them. Thanks.

Taco- I'd go with the best available DT or MLB.

That's exactly what I was about to say.

Thanks, I picked a MLB. Now they are on the clock again and I'll pick the best available DT if their time expires.

As soon as GE makes this pick the sixth round will go flying by.

I still don't have game access, so can someone recommend a player for GE? Thanks.

This is a tough one cause he already has 56 guys under contract, but I'd go with either best QB availabe as he only has 2 or best WR available as he only has one guy with a current rating over 35.

Yeah, this will be a tough call. The game "needs" list states that he needs a starting QB, starting DT, and starting S. He only has 2 QBs under contract, so that might be the way to go. He has 6 DTs under contract and 4 safeties (plus a drafted safety). I'd agree with timmy - a QB or WR would be a good bet. His backup center is also pretty weak - something to consider.

I wonder why Jeeber turned off the utility? We would have auto-picked through the remainder of the round if he hadn't.

Author:  timmynausea [ Mon Aug 29, 2005 2:41 pm ]
Post subject: 

Ok nevermind. He just turned it back on.

Author:  GoldenEagle [ Mon Aug 29, 2005 4:19 pm ]
Post subject: 

Well, my power has been on and off all day long because of the storm. I did not want the QB but who knows, maybe he will boom. I think the 2 hr time limit is a bit unfair but I understand the need to have it.

Post subject: 

GE, feel free to find another player and ask VPI to change your pick.

Nah I am alright. Powe was just out for four hours but they gtot it back on. i will pick here soon.
