You can go ahead and pick 2 QBs this week. We’ve done it all season, so what the hell.

[Spreadsheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1waQehuY_9FmkUXiyFUj7BIUQQ9elsMkG7lViqcAfAi0/edit?usp=sharing) has the information in the thread. Missing a lot of scores. But at least you can use it as a reference to who you’ve picked before.

Something I’m unclear on, Frosted Glass. You were entitled to make double picks one week to make up for missing week 10. You said the Giants picks were your makeup picks. But as far as I can tell, you made no other week 13 picks. I need a makeup set of players (two sets of players one week - one goes into the vacant week 10 slot, the other for whatever week they’re chosen for). So unless I’ve missed something, you’re still due for a double pick week.

You didn’t miss anything **Beef**. I posted late and never got the chance to really sort out my double picks so I went ahead and covered that this week.

[Spreadsheet is current](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1waQehuY_9FmkUXiyFUj7BIUQQ9elsMkG7lViqcAfAi0/edit#gid=760079898). Frosted Glass needs to make double picks for his last week, everyone else looks okay, just need week 17 picks.
