> [@VarlosZ](#): > > I’m confident that my team is better than it was last year, for several reasons, but of course that doesn’t guarantee anything. Worst case would be what happened to \*\*Stringer \*\*last year: I expect to make the playoffs and trade away my 1st largely based on that assumption, but in fact I’m just good enough to win the consolation bracket and I’ve actually traded away the 5th overall pick. Don’t pop the champagne cork just yet. Don’t forget, I lead the league in scoring last year. ---

I think you beat me by like 9 points. But now I’m missing Gordon, so fuck my ass and/or life. It’s too bad, with Ellington\* and everyone else back in ideal situations, I think I could’ve hit the top score this year. - Varlos is attempting to deprive me of him as he has ignored 17 requests to move him to my roster. I’m onto you. ---

> [@Really\_Not\_All\_That\_Bright](#): > > I was serious about this, incidentally. \*Your \*1st Rounder would probably get the deal done. As it is I’m gonna sit back for at least a little bit and see who else is interested (already got one offer), then examine in more detail. > [@SenorBeef](#): > > - Varlos is attempting to deprive me of him as he has ignored 17 requests to move him to my roster. I’m onto you. He’s already on your roster, basically. The [Draft Results](http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/139016/draftresults?drafttab=team) page is the best way to determine for sure who will and will not be on your team on opening day. Your fourteenth selection is slotted to be filled with Ellington. I guess I could manually move him to your roster page before the season (never tried it), but it would make absolutely no effective difference, so I’ll skip the busy work. ---

Oh, gotcha. I didn’t realize you did that, I was just looking for the manual move. Thanks. Also, it wasn’t that long ago that Stringer looked like the team to beat in the league, or at least we had a good rivalry going. I’d rather have that back than have to deal with some scrub\* like Justin Bailey. - Yes, I said scrub. I don’t know why I footnoted it\*\*. \*\* Possibly not a scrub, but I need to make a new arch nemesis and I don’t want to risk Varlos because I send him 1900 PMs per year in trade offers. ---

Ooph. I always want to try to draft at least one RB, but it’s really been picked clean. Jeremy Hill was the last guy before a big cliff IMO, and I don’t even like him. Fingers crossed, folks… **2.10 – QB Johnny Manziel, Cleveland** \*\*Hamlet \*\*is up. ---

Tricky pick for me. Handful of WRs that I’d like to have here and at least one RB that’s still interesting, but I’m really thin at TE. I had fantasies of Jeremy Hill slipping here, but that was cray-cray. I’m going to go with a guy I actually don’t like much, neither as a player nor with his situation, but he’s a good value with long term upside. I’m taking TE Jace Amaro. Here’s the full list from rounds 1 and 2. 1.01 Bishop Sankey (RB-Ten) furt 1.02 Carlos Hyde (RB-SF) Ellis 1.03 Teddy Bridgewater (QB-Min) dale 1.04 Terrance West (RB-Cle) Retro 1.05 Eric Ebron (TE-Det) Retro 1.06 Sammy Watkins (WR-Buf) RNATB 1.07 Mike Evans (WR-Buf) Petey 1.08 Andre Williams (RB-NYG) Omni 1.09 Devonta Freeman (RB-Atl) RNATB 1.10 Jordan Matthews (WR-Phi) Ellis 1.11 Kelvin Benjamin (WR-Car) Hamlet 1.12 Brandin Cooks (WR-NO) VarlosZ 2.01 Travis Kelce (TE-KC) furt 2.02 Blake Bortles (QB-Jax) Omni 2.03 Tre Mason (RB-Stl) dale 2.04 Cody Latimer (WR-Den) Retro 2.05 Odell Beckham Jr (WR-NYG) Stringer 2.06 Austin Seferian-Jenkins (TE-Tam) RNATB 2.07 Jeremy Hill (RB-Cin) Petey 2.08 Davante Adams (WR-Green Bay) VarlosZ 2.09 John Brown (WR-Arizona) dale42 2.10 Johnny Manziel (QB-Cleveland) VarlosZ 2.11 Marqis Lee (WR-Jax) Hamlet 2.12 Jace Amaro (TE - NYJ) Omni Think **furt’s** on the clock.
