Danny · 08-26-2009, 08:30 AM

Will have a pick up shortly

Danny · 08-26-2009, 08:51 AM

5.5 QB Ben Roethlisberger PIT

molson · 08-26-2009, 09:03 AM

5.6 Eli Manning, QB, NYG

sterlingice · 08-26-2009, 09:16 AM

Yahoo and thread updated thru 5.6

SI

rafini · 08-26-2009, 09:31 AM

Rafini Express selects:

Pick 5.7 - QB, Matt Hasselbeck, Seattle

Masked · 08-26-2009, 12:22 PM

5.8 WR Terrell Owens, BUF

flere-imsaho · 08-26-2009, 12:27 PM

5.9 RB Ryan Grant - GB (Fiddly Cartoonists)

sterlingice · 08-26-2009, 01:00 PM

Couldn't have just let Grant fall one more to me, could you have

5.10 RB Kevin Smith
6.01

Smith's not a bad consolation prize but I'd have preferred Grant as he's in a better situation.

SI

flere-imsaho · 08-26-2009, 01:02 PM

So you're selecting the invisible man at 6.01?

sterlingice · 08-26-2009, 01:14 PM

Whoops, I forgot to put my 6.01 pick. Not a big fan of his, but hoping he gets back to his "Chad Johnson" numbers:

6.01 WR Chad Ochocinco

There were about 5 different WRs on the board at this point with some interesting plusses and minuses. He easily has the highest upside, but also has a medium amount of risk.

SI

flere-imsaho · 08-26-2009, 01:19 PM

6.02 WR T.J. Houshmanzadeh - SEA (Fiddly Cartoonists)

sterlingice · 08-26-2009, 01:25 PM

He would have been my second choice. It will be interesting to see which combo plays out better across the season. Grant + Housh or Smith + 85.

SI

Masked · 08-26-2009, 01:36 PM

6.03 TE Jeremy Shockey, NO

Time to gamble - if he's healthy, he'll get consistent receptions in NO's offense

rafini · 08-26-2009, 01:39 PM

Rafini Express selects:

Pick 6.4 - RB, Pierre Thomas, New Orleans

flere-imsaho · 08-26-2009, 01:58 PM

I still can't believe he actually changed his name to "Chad Ochocinco".

sterlingice · 08-26-2009, 02:11 PM

Well, he was joking about Esteban Ochocinco after his kicking experience the other night

SI

Danny · 08-26-2009, 02:23 PM

Boo, Molson left

molson · 08-26-2009, 02:36 PM

Back! I would have been faster if not for rafini spoiling my plans.

This was a very tough pick but...

Enhanted Goats select:

6.5 Darren McFadden, RB, OAK

Danny · 08-26-2009, 02:38 PM

6.6 WR Roy Williams, DAL

This is the receiver I was hoping would make it back around to me.

Danny · 08-26-2009, 02:40 PM

But I probably had the same group of WR as Sterling Ice, so I am happy that a few were left to choose from

Celeval · 08-26-2009, 02:42 PM

The 2nd tier receiver list is certainly interesting, but we're going in a different direction for one more round, at least...

6.7 TE Kellen Winslow, TB

There are still 3 left (more like 2.5) but, yeah, he was one

There are still 3 left on my list as well, though the 3rd is someone I preferred not to take.

I have four. Does that make me more or less smart...?

k0ruptr · 08-26-2009, 03:31 PM

Holy geez my list that I was hoping would make it back down to me Is completely wiped out haha.

sterlingice · 08-26-2009, 03:46 PM

I wrote some notes on my list of WRs and RBs that were available for my last pick- I'll probably post them after it gets back to me next time around since most will be gone, I imagine.

SI

Danny · 08-26-2009, 04:23 PM

What's funny is your reason for picking Chad was exactly how I felt about Roy regarding him being the one with the most upside.

k0ruptr · 08-26-2009, 04:58 PM

Ok, Got a new short list that I actually wouldn't mind these players hoping they fall...

Qwikshot · 08-26-2009, 05:52 PM

6.8 Anthony Gonzales WR, INDY

Qwikshot · 08-26-2009, 05:53 PM

er Gonzalez sorry

Butter · 08-26-2009, 05:57 PM

Pick 6.9 - WR Vincent Jackson, San Diego

k0ruptr · 08-26-2009, 06:33 PM

Damn I thought for sure I would have Rivers to Jackson and Gates, woulda really had to root for the chargers every damn game haha. Kinda glad I'm not going that route, but woulda been interesting

k0ruptr · 08-26-2009, 06:51 PM

6.10 - QB David Garrard JAX
7.1 - WR DeSean Jackson PHI

I'm not all that happy here, but I think they are solid with more upside than downside.

Butter · 08-26-2009, 07:18 PM

Pick 7.2 - DEF/ST Pittsburgh Steelers

Qwikshot · 08-26-2009, 08:02 PM

Pick 7.3 Eddie Royal

Celeval · 08-26-2009, 09:08 PM

Boom or bust...

7.4 - WR Brandon Marshall, DEN

sterlingice · 08-26-2009, 09:22 PM

Yahoo and thread updated thru 7.4

SI

k0ruptr · 08-26-2009, 10:00 PM

I almost took Marshall as well...

Celeval · 08-26-2009, 10:30 PM

I thought long and hard about Marshall... could be a horrific season for him, particularly if the hamstring continues to act up. I don't think he'll have 100 catches again, but if he ends up with 75-ish with 1000 yards receiving and a respectable number of touchdowns, it'll be a good pick.

Danny · 08-27-2009, 12:51 AM

7.5 TE Greg Olsen, CHI

Danny · 08-27-2009, 12:54 AM

Marshall is a good pick

molson · 08-27-2009, 01:21 AM

Enchanted Goats

7.6. TE Owen Daniels, HOU

rafini · 08-27-2009, 07:51 AM

Rafini Express selects:

Pick 7.07 - TE, Chris Cooley, Washington

sterlingice · 08-27-2009, 08:01 AM

Geez- so much for getting a competent TE

SI

k0ruptr · 08-27-2009, 08:16 AM

I think there is a couple surprises still out there for TE

sterlingice · 08-27-2009, 08:19 AM

Yeah, but I think we're still in the "reach" territory for them at this point. I'll have to look a little closer at it as it's getting close to my pick, but nothing on the board really jumps out to me. That said, I still need quite a few other guys so I have lots to draft

SI

k0ruptr · 08-27-2009, 08:29 AM

I'm gonna sleep, as its 3:30 am hawaii time, just got back from a poker game. good luck with your picks people.

Masked · 08-27-2009, 09:32 AM

Pretty much everyone I thought would fall to my next pick didn't so I'll gamble again.

7.08 RB Reggie Bush, NO

flere-imsaho · 08-27-2009, 09:41 AM

7.09 WR Braylon Edwards, CLE
