Booche Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 I am in a work pool, and we are drafting via email over the next week or so. It began this morning. So, I had the second pick over-all and took Peyton Manning. Ladainian Tomlinson went first (surprise surprise) over-all and no one else has been picked yet. I'm hoping you idiots will offer advice as this thing keeps rolling along, hopefully I can grab a couple of sleepers here and there. I will provide updates as players are selected.Round 11 - Ladainian Tomlinson (RB)2 - Peyton Manning (QB) - I went against my gut and didnt take a RB.......ugh3 - S. Alexander (RB)4 - Jamal Lewis (RB)5 - Daunte Culpepper (QB)6 - Edgerrin James (RB)7 - W. McGahee (RB)8 - P. Holmes (RB)9 - C. Portis (RB)10 - J. Jones (RB)11 - D. Davis (RB)12 - R. Johnson (RB)Round 213 - D. McAllister (RB)14 - C. Martin (RB)15 - R. Moss (WR)16 - K. Jones (RB)17 - A. Green (RB)18 - C. Dillon (RB)19 - S. Jackson (RB)20 - D. McNabb (QB)21 - M. Vick (QB)22 - T.

Jaimoe Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Don't pick any Raider scum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted August 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Oh, I forgot to mention. I will not be taking any advice from that Leaf-loving Ms Ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Kerry Collins may have a good year and he may come cheap as a sleeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted August 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Thanks alot brainiac, but please read the post above yours. Also, the last thing I need right now is a QB.............jebas. It's a 'Keeper' league. Is that concept lost on you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 How many pics do you get anyway brainiac? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Yeah how many picks and what positions do you need to fill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted August 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Its either 14 or 15.All offence and I think a team defence. I am trying to find the league rules but I may have deleted the email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 hehe I don't think I'd want you drafting for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted August 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Fair enough. Seriously though, I am going to need a sleeper stud of a running back at pick 23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Would you consider a rookie as a sleeper pick? There will be quite a few at RB this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted August 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 I wont be taking a rookie until much later. Anyways, a surprise pick a number four!!!Didnt figure Priest would crack the top ten. This is a good sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted August 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 WHOOPS!Our first controversy. The # 4 pick has been changed to Jamal Lewis. Apparently, it was an error. #5 is off the board as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 I was listening to ESPN radio and their top pool pick guy said Priest is a great safe pick, but don't make him your #1 RB. Does a back named Johnson make sense to you as a #1 pick? I can't really recall the day I listened to the show, but it was last week sometime.

badams Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Anyone who drafts Holmes should also draft his backup Larry Johnson. He's very good and Priest loves to get hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Thanks Brad, that's what the ESPN dude meant. He said that you have to draft Johnson too. A very good back that will see tons of action.Bettis will get a lot of carries this year too, and I've researched this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted August 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 BETTIS???? Are you nuts? I have him ranked 40th in RB's alone! Hell, I would only take him with my last pick. This is a keeper league, remember? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 No problem. Yes, Bettis would be a great late pick Booche. He won't help you much in future years but you want to try and win this year too. Here are some good young RB's you should keep in mind.Kevin Jones RB Det Julius Jones RB Dal Steven Jackson RB StL Ronnie Brown RB Mia Carnell Williams RB TB Cedric Benson RB Chi Here are a few guys who might see a lot of time if the starters go down.Antowain Smith RB NO LaBrandon Toefield RB Jac Mewelde Moore RB Min A lot is said about Denver and their running backs. Everything I've read points to Mike Anderson RB Den starting. Thouhg BEll will eventually take over I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booche Posted August 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 You are awesome Brad!I am hoping Julius Jones will be around at 23, but I highly doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 I've already done 24 NFL drafts this summer. I've done a little research here and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tissue Man Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 what about Travis Henry as RB? i think he is with the titans now. or mcgahee in buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted August 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 I highly doubt McGahee will be availalble when I have my next pick (he should be gone by #10), and I am hoping to sneak Travis Henry a little later. He may fly below the radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Henry will be splitting carries with Brown in Tenn this year. However Brown gets hurt a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tissue Man Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 (edited) ricky williams could be a late round steal. Edited August 25, 2005 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
