SDMB Fantasy Football DYNASTY League: Year Seven

Yeah, only if my clock expires.

I considered PMing you the list, but I trust the people in this league and it’s really not a big secret who the top guys are. I’d be amazed if my first four selections are still on the board when it gets to me.

Confession: I haven’t had my coffee yet and I looked at one of your picks (Justin) before I read your post properly (the second option). I don’t think it matters since I pick after you, but I had tried to negotiate a move up in the first round earlier and I definitely won’t do that now to avoid obtaining any benefit from What I Know.

Alright, I’ll delete and PM to Varlos.

Sorry about that.

Let’s just make missed XPs -1.

I’d kinda be amazed if none of them were. Every year we have at least a couple surprises, big deviations from what most people apparently expect. I’m betting either your board is idiosyncratic or one of the boards in front of you is.

My top 5 have changed continually. There’s not a single player that I’m going to draft and feel 100% comfortable with.

The only guys coming out this year I’m really hankering for are Cooper, Gurley and Gordon. Everyone else - which means everyone who’ll be there when my two picks are up - is “meh”.

Big reason I was so willing to trade away picks this year, I think this draft class outside those 3 are very meh.

Okay, sorry to be late getting the party started.
Todd Gurley, RB, StL

By the way – I’m willing to trade down from 1.4 if anyone’s interested.

To keep it moving along, when you post your pick, PM the next person next in line, and mention them in your post.

Also, every few posts, someone should fill out the list with actual picks so we get a little recap of who was taken.

Man, I was looking at my draft last year and I forgot that I didn’t even have a pick in the first or second round. On the plus side, my third round pick Allen Robinson has the potential to actually be a worthwhile starter. I think he’s could end up being somewhere around WR20, which is pretty solid for a third rounder.

I may move my first round pick this year, but I’m not sure. My team has been weakened so much so quickly that I don’t have nearly as much talent to spare as I used to.

Oh, and a general bit of advice: If there’s a trade you might be interested in, start putting out feelers a few picks ahead of time. That way we don’t get the “I’m going to wait 10 hours to see if someone wants to trade with me” delay on every pic. At least tell people there might be some interest there and start doing some rough, conditional discussions.

Pick 1.2) Melvin Gordon RB; SD

PM to Hamlet forthcoming.

Draft recap:

1.1 Todd Gurley RB StL
1.2 Melvin Gordon RB SD

With the third pick in the 2015 SDMB Dynasty League Draft, Hamlet selects:

1.3 Amari Cooper, WR Oakland Raiders.

furt is back on the clock.

Ooooh. Ooooh. Ooooh. I changed my mind. There’s one other guy I’m hankering for, and he might fall.

Edited your post as you wanted.
We don’t usually delete them, however (unless it’s spam)

Got a couple of guys I’d consider taking here, but I’m willing to drop a bit.

Anyone interested in trading up?

Tsk.
