I 've started setting up a spreadsheet to allow easy tracking and posting of scores. Beef, I’ll email you a copy of it sometime tonight or tomorrow morning. I figure we can both track the stats and either can post each week with the other verifying the scores.

D’oh. Unless we change starters week to week it’s really kinda stupid to take a backup QB. What is the rule on that?

Gotcha. Dammit!!!

Neil Rackers  
Chargers D/ST

Does Hamlet get a new pick since he can’t have two QBs?

Hamlet can repick as far as I’m concerned since there seems to have been a misunderstanding, but the Bengals are off the board, try to pick ASAP while we keep going.

Ellis, your list has Hank Baskett ahead of Austin Collie.

This is like the Minnesota draft back in the early 2000s when teams were rushing up to the podium.

If RNATB picks, then Hamlet can just get a double pick since it’d be his turn anyway. Edit: That works, Packers D as his 7th round pick instead of Rivers.

My bad. Both were listed as active on the Eagles official site depth chart and Baskett was listed as having more yards on profootballreference.

Eh? Collie has 60 catches for 676 yards and 7 scores… Baskett has 4 catches for 28 yards.

Packers was your make-good pick from last round.

It got confusing because your pick ended up dropping down several spots, but your pick of GB becomes your (late) 7th round pick, and then RNATB with Cinci in the 7th, Dale with Rackers in the 7th, Dale with San Diego in the 8th, RNATB with Meachem in the 8th, and now it’s back up to your 8th pick. Then me, then Ellis.

It’s 3 WR right?

Oops, misread that in a big way. heh. As you can imagine I started getting punchy toward the end of making it. I thought it sounded off.

I actually want the Saints defense here but I probably shouldn’t have my whole team be the Saints.

Dallas Cowboys

Well, Baskett does have more career yards… but he’s also been in the league for four extra seasons. 😉
