I'm off to bed, I'm up by 4:30 to 5, so I'm hoping I'll be picking then...

As I read these, he gets the autopick from Yahoo. Top player on Yahoo's list is:

2.9 RB Bryant Westbrook PHI

I think that should be right, and we would then move on. Objections?

2.10 would be due at 10am.

Danny · 08-24-2009, 08:55 PM

That should be right, so Koruptr can pick. Also, that's a mighty fine autopick with our scoring.

k0ruptr · 08-24-2009, 09:58 PM

Yea , nice pick for him, was thinking about him.

2.10 QB Philip Rivers SD
3.1 WR Reggie Wayne IND

k0ruptr · 08-24-2009, 09:59 PM

Butter is up again...

sterlingice · 08-24-2009, 11:48 PM

Ok, his pick is due by 10am tomorrow.

2 of the first three picks is pretty serious so if he doesn't pick, then we might be in the market for a new owner.

So, if the pick hasn't been made by 10 or we haven't heard word- *don't* autopick. I'm pretty busy tomorrow morning but we may have to come up with another owner. Speaking of which, anyone interested should PM me- there's no guarantee and I definitely want to give him a chance to pick but I also want to make sure I have all of my bases covered.

Looks like we can knock out several more here. I have to leave for several hours in a little bit, so hopefully we can get far enough so I can at least send someone a short list to draft for me.

3.10 RB Brandon Jacobs

Well, someone had to do it....

4.03 QB Donovan McNabb

I'll take the loser of SI's coin toss

sterlingice · 08-25-2009, 12:46 PM

I figured one was higher upside and better weapons (Schaub) versus a more consistent performer with a little less injury history (McNabb)

k0ruptr · 08-25-2009, 10:49 PM

I was hoping to pick up my 2nd QB already but Carson didn't fall to me, and I didn't really like my options, So I decided to wait on that position.

molson · 08-25-2009, 10:50 PM

When you say "Yahoo is updated" - what does that mean? Are you loading these picks into the Yahoo system? Is there anyway we can see that? I've never done this kind of slow draft before, but pretty soon, we'll be at the point where I'd love to be able to sort and see who's still out there.

Celeval · 08-25-2009, 10:59 PM

Sign in to Yahoo!

sterlingice · 08-25-2009, 11:00 PM

Yeah- I'm putting in the draft as we go along in Yahoo. So, if you go to "available players", you'll see who's left out there.

There is one little hitch we found out during baseball season, tho. If you search on a name, say "Manning"- it will still show Eli and Peyton (and Mario Manningham), even tho Peyton has already been picked. So the search shows you all players- available *and* taken.
