[skeptical] Alright, we’ll wait. I mean, injuries happen all the time in camp, and during the 4th Week of preseason, so to a certain extent we just have to live with injuries occurring in the middle of our draft, but I do appreciate the concern, and Week 3 games are probably the busiest time for relevant injuries. If we had more picks this year I’d insist on starting now, but with only 45 (plus a bunch to be made at once at the end), we have a pretty solid buffer. Just be aware that we might have to start earlier next year if there are 65 picks instead of 45. And, yes, we may as well extend the drops deadline. Post any edits to your current list by Sunday at 7 PM. (You guys better believe I’m using this time to harass everyone about niggling little trades. Get ready.) ---

I was looking over the league and noticed we didn’t have the same FAAB dollars. Then I remembered - you get extra in reverse order of finish as a parity measure. I would actually support doubling the amount from $2 per slot to $4 per slot. I guess something for next year. Minor, but this league has been steadier from year to year than I expected, and I thought giving those at the bottom more to work with would be beneficial for league morale. Also, I get a set bonus of +15% to erection size as a set bonus for owning all Georgia Tech receivers, so I’m going to have to ask you to hand over Calvin Johnson. Might as well start the draft now, btw. I mean, wait until today’s games if you want, but I doubt they’re going to influence the top few picks. ---

4.) Eddie Lacy, RB. GB Moving forward can we make our picks in a format similar to this. Just to make it easier to follow along. Petey is on the clock. ---

I hate picking an injured player, but I have to think long term: 1. Le’Veon Bell, RB, Pit ---

I actually would have taken Bell as a better short-term pick but I see Bernard having a better career. Let’s go ahead and enter our picks into the pick chart like we did last year. **Round 1** 1. Tavon Austin, WR, STL 2. Giovani Bernard, RB, Cin 3. Montee Ball, RB, Den 4. Eddie Lacy, RB, GB 5. Le’Veon Bell, RB, Pit 6. Justin Bailey 7. VarlosZ 8. Omniscient 9. Stringer 10.

I don’t think we need the chart for every single pick, or at least not the whole thing. Maybe the current round. Anyway, I won’t be around to make my pic for probably 8-10 hours, if it gets that far. ---

Just one more pick and I’m gonna get stuck with the player I knew I was gonna get stuck with. Putting everyone on notice that the 7th pick is up for sale, especially if Justin selects Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx. ---

I’m in discussions. If anyone’s curious, I wouldn’t mind a trade for this pick that involves a pick from next year.
