MFL is perhaps iffy during the workday here as well.

Also would prefer to nix the bonus aspect, though it looks like that's been done. Just wanted to get that out there in case there was a big rush for it and we needed a vote or something.

Kinda surprised that happened. I traditionally have not very good luck in this sort of thing.

My strategy relies on Sataere making everyone panic.

Clearly he's twigged before round one is up and is now undermining me.

My strategy can be summed up perfectly by Brandon Marshalls description of the Jets season.

You can't draft the water cooler.

So my intent was to post that and then wait until Spoeank's pick and the say something like, "Except for you" or some such.

After those picks though, I just can't.

Ninja Bob is up, will email shortly, and we still need Ben to sign up at MFL..

Ah, this is true. MFL is spotty at work. I can get their main page, but not many of the others. Is there a direct signup link or something so I can see if that works from here?

Really thought you were gonna go Latavius Murray there.

I pick Not Brock. (Conner Cook)

Considered, but the short shelf life plus how horribly the Raiders ran against the Texans a few weeks ago made me think it's not worth it.

A bit sad everyone didn't sleep on Lewis, but I I think OAK wins, and that will add some value.

I'm kinda feeling Houston there. OAK won last time, but it was close and on the back of a few questionable calls. OAK is going to be down to a third stringer at QB and their LT has an injured leg, so I think it swings HOU this time.

My counter argument is Brock. :v:

It was a 1 score game with Brock last time! Though uh, I wouldn't really recommend drafting him.

My lineup is correct.

So, which undrafted TE is going off for 2 TDs? I'm thinking Richard Rodgers

With Ryan, Lewis, Edelmann and Gostkowski in the Super Bowl, I think I've got a decent shot at this!

I didn't have any faith in the falcons (or any NFC team) so I chose players from teams that I knew would play at least 2 games, like Pittsburgh and Houston. And now I'm in 5th place.

I feel like I lucked into Matt Ryan. I didn't really intend to take any falcons, just to try and focus on Steelers and Pats, but you gotta have a QB from somewhere.

So with this wrapped up, I wondered if we could do a quick post mortem. Mostly just two thoughts, since I was considering doing this with some friends next year. What'd y'all think of the format? Is this something better suited to a different draft type?

I wonder a bit about snake draft, mostly because Spoeank seemed to get the short end of the stick. Granted, it's a lot easier to snake slow than get a bunch of people together for an auction or something. Any thoughts?
