- You left a *lot* of talent on the board. - Will Hunting Aug 25, 10:47 19
  - Our 1st round went 7 WRs and 5 RBs. - TFox Aug 25, 10:49 1
    - to be honest, I see alot of potential time sharers when I selected. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 25, 10:53

    - I can start 2 -- nm - Bacon @Home Aug 25, 10:49 11
      - 3 -- the W/R spot should go to a RB given they typically earn more points -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 25, 10:49 7
        
        Beanie has no backup this year. I expect him to get starters numbers. No Hightower share -- nm - Bacon @Home Aug 25, 10:51 6
        
        You expect too much. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 11:14

        [deleted]
        
        Sure, I just think there's plenty of other safer picks out there who might not miss chunnks of the season due to work-release restrictions. -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 25, 10:51 2
        
        I'm gambling that the NFLPA fights for him tooth and nail should the commish attempt to suspend him. -- nm - samara Aug 25, 10:53 1
        
        Could be a worthwhile gamble. Risk/reward is too high for me. - Will Hunting Aug 25, 10:56
- Even if I had interest in participating in a draft, people not having their acts together to such a degree would kill it for me -- nm - prayformojo Aug 25, 10:44
