I don’t know. On the one hand, I go into every draft optimistic that this one will be no problem. On the other hand, it seems like I inevitably find myself posting things like “It’s been 31 hours since the last pick…” A hard 12-hour rule is unworkable, I think. If someone has to work early the next morning they might reasonably go to sleep early. Then lets say 4 picks come in from from 11pm to midnight and now that person is the clock. They wake up early and quickly rush off to early work and now at lunchtime they’re already late and subject to skipping? Seems wrong on its face to me. Spitballing here, maybe something like an 11pm Eastern skip time, where if it’s been 12 or more hours on the clock and it’s now 11pm, then the next person could jump in? I don’t know if that’s any better. Maybe just mornings don’t count for time? Say midnight to noon doesn’t count toward the 12-hour skip time? I just don’t want to see picks taking longer than 24 hours. ---

Lisfranc injury and out for the year. Regardless of how any surgery rehab may go he is out for the year due to being placed on IR before making the roster. ---

Not the best injury to hope for as a RB, especially as a shifty speedster. However, it seems we value RBs at a premium, so probably not as much as you might think. ---

Oh yeah he’s certainly draftable, but as the guy holding the fourth overall pick… Let’s just say he definitely wasn’t going to be there at 4, but now he might be, but probably isn’t worth it that high? I honestly don’t know. ---

He was probably going to be there at #4 even before the injury. I think Harris-Chase-Pitts are clearly the top 3 prospects in this draft. ---

Oh really? I was kind of hoping Pitts would fall to me. I was actually kind of expecting it to be honest. I would have been bummed about missing out on Pitts but would have happily picked up Etienne. Now? Maybe I still should. I could rename myself the next year’s warriors, with both Akers and Etienne out for season. ---

If you want to compete this year you’ll probably end up taking Javonte Williams. I think the top 4 picks will be Harris/Pitts/Chase/Williams in some order, probably that order. I’m not 100% sure I’m drafting pitts but I’m leaning that way. I’m also not worried about tipping my hand - worst thing that can happen is that someone trades up to #1 to get him and then I end up with Harris, which is just fine. ---

Huh. My top 5 prospects in order were Harris, Pitts, Etienne, Williams, Chase, and I was agonizing over whether I’d choose Williams (probably the better play but I don’t love him) or Chase, who I really don’t like but can’t say why. I thought he was short but he’s 6’1", but even looking that up now I still don’t find myself liking him very much. EDIT: I think taking Tavon Austin first overall ruined WRs for me in this league just in general, at least for top 5 picks. I don’t think I’ve ever made a non-RB top 5 pick who ever ended up being productive. And, sadly, I’ve had a lot of top 5 picks. ---

Now that I’ve said that I’m curious, so looking back at all my first round picks in this league: 2020 1.04 Cam Akers, RB, LAR 2019 1.12 traded back to 2.05: Daniel Jones, QB, NYG 2018 1.05 Baker Mayfield, QB, Cle 2017 1.04 Christian McCaffrey, RB, Car 2016 1.03 Kenneth Dixon, RB, Bal 2015 1.09 Marcus Mariota, QB, Ten 2014 1.02 Carlos Hyde, RB, SF 2013 1.01 Tavon Austin, WR, STL 2012 1.04 David Wilson, RB, NYG 2011 1.11 Plaxico Burress, WR, NYJ 2010 1.02 Jahvid Best, RB, Det 2009 1.08 Brian Westbrook, RB, Phi Yikes, that’s a decade of suck. I see a lot of quarterback desperation in this list. And my running back success isn’t particularly good. Ouch. Sadly, many or most of the old thread links don’t work. Depending on my motivation, I may post a table of contents to link to for future threads. I found it interesting to reread the rules discussion thread. Kickers were always just barely in the league. I’m also intrigued by the various contract systems proposed, though I’m glad we ultimately didn’t go with any of them. (We can keep players forever.) EDIT: I also found it fascinating that not only did we do a live draft in the first year (obviously and of course), we also did a live draft in the second year, instead of doing a thread draft. Weird. EDIT 2: Oh s\*\*\*, I see a pattern in my draft position. Apparently, my next winning season will be 2022, giving me my next poor draft pick in 2023. I’m like the Giants, who can only seem to win super bowls 4 years apart. ---

I was looking back at old threads last night too and I found this trade during the 2010 season between me and Beef: > **Gusterrhoids gets** > Eddie Royal > > **Exploding Pancakes gets** > Kyle Orton > Tony Gonzalez My god, people were _ **LIVID** _ about how lopsided and unfair it was. The discussion went on for 30 posts and there was even talk of vetoing the trade. But it’s funny, it actually ended up being pretty balanced. Gonzalez ended up playing three more seasons and posted an average 888 and 8 over that span. Eddie Royal never broke out like I thought he was going to, but he later posted seasons of 631-8 and 778-7. Kyle Orton, as I expected, cratered immediately after the trade. I might look back at my first rounders now. Thanks for putting the links together! ---
