As I’m sure we realize, **furt** is on the lock again. We going to make a executive decision on his pick again? Having the commish do it again is probably fine, but it’s worth noting that he’s drafting 2 picks behind him.

FWIW Jacob Tamme is underrated here - I’d have considered him at 2.12 if I wasn’t already loaded at TE. Manning is gonna throw to him.

Looks like I’ll be making furt’s pick again. I wasn’t worried about making his 2nd Rounder because I determined that his roster needs and the available talent meant he’d be taking a WR, while I knew that I’d either be trading my pick or taking a RB. But now that we’re probably more in “best player available” territory I can’t be as sure. Someone one other want to volunteer to make the pick for him? Hamlet? Omni? PM me if interested. In any event, furt’s pick will be made before bed tonight.

I PMed you a suggestion. Think it might be the only option.

**With the 6th pick in Round 3, furt’s Fightin’ Quakers select Mohamed Sanu, Cincinatti.**  
Just got an email from \*\*furt \*\*with a preranking list; hopefully it will carry us through his last two picks.

\*\*RNATB \*\*is up.

FWIW, I was going to submit Sanu as a BPA pick if no one stepped up.

Edit: Oh, that was Furt’s pick, not yours, NM.

Surprised about Brown, you mean? Not me, since I cut him. This ain’t no sissy ward; get that injured trash off my roster.

Anyway, **Varlos selects Marvin Jones, WR, Cincinatti.**

Justin Bailey is up. (And let’s not forget about those PMs, people.)

This might be a tad early for a defense, but what the hell, I don’t want to lose my chance…

**With the 9th pick in Round 3, The Gusterrhoids select the Buffalo Bills Defense.**

PM sent to Stringer, who’s now on the clock.

Draft Results page is updated – 34 picks down, 20 to go.

I’m really not sure what we’ll do once we’re finished and the draft is 100% filled with “keepers.” Chances are we’ll just let the “live” draft run itself, and anyone who wants to show up for 2 second show can do so. But we’ll see. (Oh, and I rescheduled said live draft for as late as possible.)

Can’t you just convert it to an offline draft or does that cause issues with the keeper system?

Pick soon.

I could do it, of course, but I have no idea if that would force me to re-enter all the keepers. So, probably we’ll just leave it as is and have a live draft that takes less than 5 seconds.

Posting from a DC hotel room for the low-low price of $39.95.

I’ll take **Dwayne Allen, TE, Indianapolis**.

It’s always frustrating in this league when you have you final pick and there’s like 4 guys left that you want.
