draft day 2.

After the flurry of the "first day" I settle in for round 4. In the 4th round, I have 5 selections. 2/4/5/14/21. I will also attempt to get an extra 4th or two if possible. I still have 5/6/7 in both of the next 2 drafts.

The forth round will be "make or break" for my team. I notice immediately I need to get some secondary help, possibly a linebacker, and definitely some more linemen.

Lance Greene LT looks like a potentially solid player, he goes at 4.2
Byron Choisser LCB is a holdover from my last draft, I got him around here the last time, I decide to do so again.

I wisely choose to save at this point, I can't risk another fuckup.

Eric Haslett WILB is my selection at 4.5. He should help build my linebacking corps.

Shane Bronson MLB, looks like another potentially good player at 4.14. I select him.

Bubba Kelly LCB, is still on the board at 4.21, I decide he's worth the gamble. I also package my 2 remaining #5's for 4.22 and take Rufus Jefferson, RDT. I figure he's good insurance if one of my ends or my NT busts. Should be a solid backup.

Man, I really need to pick up some interior linemen now.

I have 4 5th rounders. I still need starters.
I grab RG Lance Ramos. He's might be good. This late, it's hard to say.
RG Billy Joe Ater is my pick at 5.4, he has solid bars, who knows if he can play. I get my center, Rod McKenzie at 5.6. I think he'll be okay, but I'm not sure.

QB Juan Pientka has been taunting me with his potential the last few rounds. I pull the trigger at 5.20.

I pick up a couple of 6ths, each for my 6/7's I have left.

I now I have 4 6's, 2/15/17/19

I decide it's a good idea to save again.
I have no safeties, and no SLB. And one great WR. I'll be trying to adress these in the final 6 picks I have. It's getting late, it's now Christmas. In the interest of family, I quickly make my final 6 selections, denoted
