If anyone has an extra better than average defense and wants to make a move, my pick in this round is available (Now that James Starks is gone).
I was going to say that I’m going to break the mold here. I’d normally draft the high upside WR, but instead I’m going to draft the high floor one. But then I realized I was just falling into my other mold - homer picks.
3.10 Andrew Hawkins, WR, CLE
And my draft is done. Hamlet is up.
Sorry Hamlet.
I’ll get my pick in after dinner in a couple hours. Sorry for the delay.
No huge rush, we’re making good time.
I get to draft someone I hope never, ever plays a down.
3.11 Matt Asiata, RB, Minnesota.
My pick is up. I think I probably have a trade coming. Hold on to your hats, folks, it’s a blockbuster.
**Varlos **trades his 3.12 pick to Justin_Bailey in exchange for … K Stephen Gostkowski.
First time for everything.
Justin is on the clock.

I just looked at your roster…what a strange pick.
Carr could be starting this year, looked good tonight.
After three rounds we seem to be comfortably maintaining a rate of 2 days per full round. Even the first round took exactly 2 days if you start counting when the clock officially started, 2.5 days if you start counting by the 12-hour early start we took.
Two days per round seems reasonable in terms of planning when to start a draft to get it done in time.
Posting the draft for the new page, and to add the trades. Fully 1/3 of the picks so far have changed hands in some way.

Trying to make the most out of “last preseason game standout” results:
4.02 Isaiah Crowell (Cle-RB)
Now watch he’ll be banished to the practice squad until 1 week after I cut him.
EDIT: dale is on the clock, PM sent.
Am I living in rose-colored-glasses world, or was there a time when teams would at least play their top backups in the last preseason game? Seems like now it’s mostly all third- and fourth-teamers.
If anyone in this round wants to swap, I’ll offer either Chris Givens or Chris Polk and my 4th rounder next year for a 4th rounder this year.
Reports are Carr is starting week 1. lolschaub
I’m taking the Indianapolis D/ST.
I’ve had to take one my kids up to the hospital (not too serious, but enough that we are here), I will make my pick by early tomorrow morning. Sorry.
If its gets to long feel free to move on without me.
