This Wednesday, September 2nd at 8PM Central is our draft. Here is the final draft order:
1. Sonny Morocco91
2. Tribe Slapahoe
3. DC
4. Gerb’s Suckwads
5. Tailgaters
6. KD’s Squad
7. The Sad Schaubs
8. Backhanders
9. CrownMeNow
10. lumberjackato
11. Battle Red Undead
12. Beer Belly Ninjas
13. East Texas Eagles
14. The Persianators
Remember, this is a snake draft. Another reminder – the roster set-up has changed since the first time we talked about it. Because of the large size of the league, I think it’s better to have fewer roster spots, so this is what I settled on… and I’ve only gotten one or two emails to the contrary, so the rosters will look like this:
QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, TE, K, DEF, and five bench players.

I had another league that is 100% auto pick and it turned out like this
s Jackson
d ward
f jones
c brown
r Wayne
calvin johnson
r white
t Gonzalez
mcnabb and favre
thin at RB but overall not too bad for autopick
Aug 30, 2009 at 14:19:34
Wow!! Autopick did you some favors at the WR spot…
Aug 30, 2009 at 14:24:10
That must have been a pretty small league. Ten teams?
Aug 30, 2009 at 17:16:15
It’s actually a twelve team league. That’s the best autopick I have seen. They even got me beanie wells and lance Moore on the bench. Not too crazy about jackson at 5 but I can’t complain

I got the last say so in my draft position and I got the position I covet the most. I love picking last. Although, I will admit, I have never competed in a 14 team league, I think i will be okay for the draft. Good luck guys!

Good luck, Truth. I prefer last too – but not in a 14 team league. I’ve done some 14 team mocks, and it ain’t pretty.

“i picked the 8 spot because when we are drafting, i am going to wear some pretty white gloves, and i wanted everything to feel real. LOL. I even have my eli voodoo doll that i guard with my life, because if anything were to happen to eli, i would have to go hide out is cali or they might take my white gloves away”
can you guess who i am!

@ Allen OU. I’m assuming the “OU” is for Oklahoma? I’ll look forward to directing the majority of my smack talk in your direction. I was surprised you didn’t pick the 2 spot in the draft order. I figured since the 2 spot has treated you so well in life that you’d prefer to draft from that position as well
HOOK EM HORNS!!!

Hey Chris, I wouldn’t go with that combo strategy that you’re thinking about doing. I’m onto you…

@KO
I was just curious what LZ thought. I respect his FF opinions above almost all others… but the reality is, my strategy’s been locked in for a long time. I was just hoping for some confirmation. The other league I’m in I’ve won it twice in a row and three in four years, so I’m not actually seeking his advice as much as I’m looking for confirmation for what I already feel.
That said – the HDH league will be my first 14 team league… so I’ll be a little lost.
Aug 31, 2009 at 12:35:27
No I’m just messing with you. I have a ton of respect for LZ’s opinion. This is also my first 14 team league so I have no idea what to expect. I have a feeling that picking 1st will give me one really good player and then a bunch of scrubs.

I have an extremely silly question to ask….
Can you tell me what account I registered as? ?????@yahoo.com
I always end up using Yahoo for my NFL Fantasy rush but I have trouble remembering what the actual name is so I have to make a new account year year as I use hotmail and gmail only. :/
