usually the owners fighting it out over 17th & 18th spot don't really care (decided w/quarter last 2 ODL's)..therefore we can get started when the conf finals wrap up. We should wrap up the 1st round immediately and go on the clock asap (nlt fri 4/11). This is a 6 round draft and has moved quickly once started..we took +2 days off the schedule in ODL XLVI. This is a veteran crew, we should be fine.

unfortunately for him it looks like krishnaman can now be slotted only I don't see his preference nor for that matter even his avowal that he is coming back

Typically owners respond in 3 ways, theme forum, league forum and sm. I'm waiting for the conf finals to end, then hopefully we can seed the last 4 spots.

I think I'd rather be 20, than 18 or 19.  If it's too late to decide that, just let me know.

You know whats weird?  Two ODL's ago, I drafted Larry Bird 18th I think and a few on the commentary thread suggested "the Bird pick might have been too early", and I had to defend my logic.  This ODL, smokey picks Bird SEVENTH and I didn't hear any shocked comments.

Is that cuz his name is Bird and not Bill Bridges?  LOL  You make one Bill Bridges pick and make the playoffs and you must get a pass for a few years hehe

Other than the fact that Rodman should always go 1st in the draft, there are so many good people, and enough different ways to build, that I rarely have comments about early round picks.


I took Robinson because I had never used him before, but I really thought about Stockton, a player I have seriously warmed up to in open leagues.

I'm interested in either trading up from my second round pick or, if that doesn't work out, trading down when the time comes. Let me know if interested.
