I bet after all those studs didn't get picked first round, more people submit studs this round.
Reverse psychology? Make people think there's no point trying, then maybe you sneak off with one!

I've got my next 10 player targets lined up. I fully expect 9 will go this round, and the 10th, which I selected, will be matched and blacklisted.

On the flip side of that, it must suck a bit to get your man in the first round, and then watch more players get blacklisted while you wait for the next round to start. Obviously it's good to get your man up front, but you also have to sit and watch the talent pool dwindle further.
A few guys went who I had been targeting for Round 2-3, but not that many actually.

I was deciding between Boudreau, Brett and Morgan. Guessed right... whew...

How did nobody try Bonds during all those round 1 re-dos?

There were still better options out there, IMO. Bonds has been inconsistent for me.

I am going to the Husker game today (first win of Frost era?) and will only have access on my phone. . . . so probably no updates until later tonight. Have a great Saturday!

My fifth pick in the first round came down to either Sisler or Bonds, and I went with Sisler.

I switched my pick from Hamilton to Hendrix at the last minute. Someone owes me lunch for that choice.

Lunch may be a little difficult to deliver, but you do have my thanks!

I'd be interested to see a second iteration of this theme, with the same 24 owners and same rules, just to see how different the picks and blacklist end up.

Really fun draft. I am looking forward to seeing how the mid to final rounds play out. No idea what to expect from say rounds 15-25. Also, thank you big time to NebHusker for running and maintaining this draft for us. It will have been a LOT of work when all is said and done.
