Vol_Bengal Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 [quote name='Jamie_B' post='468766' date='Apr 9 2007, 10:26 AM']Nice pick. [/quote] Thank you... Did a little research and a bunch of mocks had him going as early as like 47 to Green Bay... He falls to 98, I wanted a RB anyway with the relatively shallow depth I had + the pool in this draft made it easy. Except for one thing... The Suckeye hater in me made it hard to pull the trigger!!!

Vol_Bengal Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 [quote name='Montecore' post='468782' date='Apr 9 2007, 11:14 AM']I disagree. It's not a nice pick. Not a nice pick at all. (I was planning to take him at 99 ...)[/quote] Sorry about that... Let me know ahead of time in the future and I'll not take that player... j/k Oh, and you are on the clock at this point for the 99th, and last of the 3rd round, pick.

Montecore Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 With the final pick of the first day, the Oakland Raiders select Samson Satele, C, Hawaii. Oakland's offensive line was a mess last year and even though a lot of the troubles can be attributed to scheme, this move makes sense for the team. With Satele as the starting center, Jake Grove can move to guard and 2nd round pick Justin Blalock can challenge for playing time at LT/LG. The Raiders brought in Jeremy Newberry in free agency, but injuries will probably relegate him to a backup. The starting line for 2007 will look something like this: LT-------------LG------------C-----------RG-----------RT--- Sims-------Blalock-------Satele-------Grove-------Gallery Blalock----Hulsey--------Newberry---Booth--------Walker Gallery-------------------Grove-------McQuistan------------ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I say we start over,,,,, Limit the contestants to the more commited and get another view of what the draft could be. Make a rule that you have to right 3 sentecnes why this pick and put them into the depth chart of the position....like the guy did for the Raiders OL.....

Montecore Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 If we wanted to either continue on or start it over, I'd be willing to take it on. I will be traveling without a computer next Monday and Tuesday, though, so it might not work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 If we do it again, I think we should establish the ground rules up front. My suggestions: 1. No trades. You have the picks your team has now. That way we don't get anything too ridiculous. 2. You have 18 hours to make your pick. If your time runs out, do it like ther NFL. You get passed over until you get your pick in. 3. Re-pick teams. Only participate if you will be able to make your picks in a timely manner. See if there is some way to determine who gets the Bengals in a random fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No trades. You can't pick until 4 people pick after the last pick you made. So if you pick 11th you cant pick until 16th, 1st 6th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
