Rodgers is a first-year keeper for me, as I traded for him at the beginning of last season.

Are we allowed to trade draft picks for draft picks, no players involved?

Is there a reason why we are waiting 5 days to start the draft?

Wow, stoked Mike Vic didn't take Wallace. I was hoping to get wither Wallace or Jennings, or both.

I was actually PMing with Packerfanatic saying I bet MV takes Wallace

I try to avoid Steelers players if I can, but Wallace was very tempting. It was between Wallace and Forte for sure, glad I could make you happy.

Indeed. I am really excited about Wallace and Jackson. I am excited about my WR corps.

I called Saldana, he should pick pretty soon.

Pretty much why I avoided Forte - although even my non-bias side (no matter how small it is) told me that Jennings would be a better get than Forte.

Yay. I thought I'd be the one holding up the draft since I was out of town all weekend so no prep time and a surprise audit at work today. Time to get caught up (and then set up my league, hopefully)

I had 3 guys in mind for my 1st round pick and picked one. The other two both made it back around to me- that's either fortuitous or ominous.

That said, I just got that injury shiver down my spine with Colston- the same one I got every time I drafted Fred Taylor (d'oh)

I'm going to be at a funeral tomorrow so I likely won't be online until after supper time. I'll apologize right now if things bog down at my pick.

I gave him some consideration, but I was just too concerned about his injuries to pick him.

yeah, I seriously considered Colston also. Had Wallace been gone I likely would have taken him. Went with V Jackson instead, I think he has a lot to play for this season

I'm not liking the way this is shaping up. I don't have any confidence in my WR keeper and there's not much left.

I'm gonna need a little luck.

Dola,

When looking at rosters, does the FOFC All Stars look like they are missing a WR slot to anyone else?

I think it's something to do with how you assign the slots. I had the same problem until I benched / started people in the single vs double slots (WR instrad of RB/WR).

Yeah, I wondered about that, too. As I was making my picks it said that I still needed a WR and I looked at my slots and wondered how that was possible.

Is there a way to see how many times you've had a certain player on your roster? I feel like I've had Wes Welker during two other seasons before picking him again this year. I also think I've ended up with Lee Evans 14 times so expect him to come to me somehow.

I don't think so, but it's funny you say that as I was thinking to myself 'Didn't he take Weller last year too?'

Am I the only one who thinks of Will Ferrell in "Night at the Roxbury" saying "Emileo!" but instead it's Julio?
