I was mostly interested in trading him to Ellis …

Is that the rookie TE for the Lions? I need to do more research.

26 down, 19 to go – but the last four will presumably all be made at once, so basically we have 16 picks left (and 7 days). Thanks to everyone updating the draft list. I’m still in AC, on my phone, so it would be a real pain for me.

Also, did you know that Atlantic City has almost no wifi hot spots? Unless I want to do tonight’s Auction League draft on my phone (which sounds awful), I’m gonna have to find a spot I can stake out for a few hours at the Borgata, which is the only hotel with free wifi for players. (Well, the Tropicana has it too, but it’s shitty and unreliable.)

We are getting to that “who?” part of the draft. I don’t even know where I’m going to find four players to fill my last four picks. I thought Sudfeld would be available for sure.

There’s gotta be a starbucks or mcdonalds somewhere. Or you can turn your phone into a wifi hotspot maybe.

I can draft for you if necessary since I’m no longer in that league.

There are a few Starbucks, but they close at like 10 (draft starts at 9). And unless it’s changed recently you can’t tether your computer to an iPhone (not without jailbreaking it).

But the Borgata should work out. If catastrophe happens I might send you a PM, RNATB.

Mike Tolbert, RB, Carolina

I’m not sure we’re going to see Jonathan Stewart at all this year.

Sigh. My RB plan coming out of the inaugural draft was Marion Barber and Knowshon Moreno, then J-Stew was my next big acquisition. Hasn’t exactly worked out as planned.

3.4) Justin Hunter WR, Ten

I am really surprised that he lasted this long, and had to check the list a few times to make sure.  
He has had some issues with maturity it seems thru training camp and OTAs. Hopefully he can grow up a little over the course of the year.

Skills-wise he is one of the top WRs in the draft, and one of the few real downfield threats in this years draft.

I really liked him, good pick, but he’s struggled too much in the preseason to inspire a lot of confidence and they still have Britt. He has more question marks than most others and his QB situation is iffy. Before the preseason I’d have had him over Patterson or Woods, but not any more.

I agree with all of this, but at this point I believe he is a good value.
