Well, that and he insisted that everyone take Daunte Culpepper first in every draft in the universe. IMO, when he’s the most insistent is when he’s most influenced by emotion. But, the reporting is excellent there.

Same goes for CBS Sportsline. They have great football updates. But for some reason, they’re fantasy baseball information is horrendously bad.

Good lord. I’ve made two “there, they’re, their” mistakes in the last month. That’s painfully inept.

Didn’t he do a lot of kick returns last year?

Has Canidate been drafted yet? Because he’s my pick if not.

I think the Hamsters ate my question on what you guys think will happen with M. Pittman in Tampa Bay. I wonder if Earnest Graham or Aaron Stecker might be great sleeper picks this year, or if it just increases Alstott’s value?

I think that Alstott’s value goes up a little bit and that Stecker is definately worth a late round gamble.

They’ve been talking to Arizona about Thomas Jones, which makes that very interesting. Jones has been a fantasy bust, but I’m wondering if a change of venue would help. Plus, that makes Emmitt’s value go up slightly.

They also signed Terry Kirby, I think. Gruden was a big fan of having boatloads of RBs in OAK, maybe he’ll try the same thing in TB.

I remember that prediction about LT. About his sophomore slump and how he wouldn’t stand up physically to an entire season.

I drafted him in the 3rd round and traded him for Anthony Thomas. :eek:

There’s nothing I can do about it. Let’s go with Chan’s suggestion.

Trung = Jones  
Jones = Trung

Yeah, works great for me, but it may not be worth bothering about it since the computer will have its way with me for the rest of the draft anyway. But I’ll take what I can get.

And I’ve predrafted my next two rounds.

we can make trung = someone that hasnt been drafted yet, and move on.
