In response to "I wouldn't be shocked at this point if 3 of Samara's castoffs are in the first 5 picks. -- nm" by Strongbad

well, if she is not active in looking to deal those players.

shame on her

Responses:

Her problem is that people knew her situation and wouldn't deal with her. -- nm - David Aug 20, 07:37 34
- False. I tried to pick off a loosy back a month ago but she wanted to deal them as a package (likely to Walt). I asked again yesterday, but she went.. - Name Withheld By Request Aug 20, 07:53 7
  - PS: Speaking of which, what's the word for Vamps? Are we going? Who were Samara's keepers? -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Aug 20, 07:56 6
    - She hasn't announced yet so you are in a holding pattern until she does. - David Aug 20, 07:57 5
      - mind games\ -- nm - Beaker Aug 20, 08:07 2
        
        Yes! She's a ruthless ruthless evil - Bacon Aug 20, 08:08 1
        
        I'm telling you. She was born for Game of Thrones. -- nm - David Aug 20, 08:09
      - Since JF posted last night, I'd think he's just having a busy morning. -- nm - Inigo Aug 20, 08:07
      - Yeah, this is very unlike her. Usually she's bang bang in terms of replying to emails. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Aug 20, 08:06
- I had to choose btw Foster and Ellington - jack foley Aug 20, 07:45
- Ding! -- nm - Bacon Aug 20, 07:44 24
  - if that is the case, then all the owners are dumb. - groiny Aug 20, 07:46 23
    - alternatively, there are so many good players available to get in the first round that it's not worth giving up a pick to get one that's "good enough" - Reagen Aug 20, 07:54 6
      - a first round pick, sure, but giving up a 3 to upgrade your keepers? - groiny Aug 20, 07:55 5
        
        I added Peyton Manning, Julius Thomas and Roddy White as keepers. In total, I moved from pick 1-6 to 4-10. - David Aug 20, 08:00 1
        
        well, obviously, you get a kicker pick back. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 20, 08:01
        
        Even that. - Reagen Aug 20, 07:57
        
        I may have overpaid for Marshall in the eyes of others, but my starting WRs are no brainer plays every week, and I like that security. -- nm - Shaun Aug 20, 07:57 1
        
        WR is tough, there are so many to choose from, but I think you will get great value from Marshall. - groiny Aug 20, 08:00
    - All depends. - Inigo Aug 20, 07:52 1
      - right, that is what I said, but also, teams with picks 1-4, probably have less talent - groiny Aug 20, 07:54
    - Assuming she would take a third rounder. I would do that - Bacon Aug 20, 07:50 13
      - She's always in the gunning for winning it all. I don't help her unless the trade is very lopsided in my favor - Bacon Aug 20, 07:51 12
        
        To a larger point, Samara is the best overall player across the three leagues over the past few seasons. - David Aug 20, 07:55 7
        
        Also this is the main reason I am willing to wait for her. I want to be the best so I want to compete against the best. - Bacon Aug 20, 08:00
        
        easily -- nm - Beaker Aug 20, 07:59
        
        interesting, who are the top 5? -- nm - groiny Aug 20, 07:56 3
        
        I've never really thought about it because the #1 choice is so obvious. - David Aug 20, 07:58 2
        
        ML would be my 2nd pick....he almost always has either #1 or #2 in points. - Will Hunting Aug 20, 07:59 1
        
        Amoxy would be in the discussion. I don't know about records but he always has the best keeper options each season. -- nm - David Aug 20, 08:01
        
        I agree with this 100% -- nm - Bacon Aug 20, 07:56
        
        as am I, and I would trade any cut for any pick 100% of the time. - groiny Aug 20, 07:53 3
        
        Yeah, not all the owners in the league act that way. (Though I do find that post-Tfox, we're down to a handful of aggressive traders.) - Name Withheld By Request Aug 20, 07:55 1
        
        usually I am very aggressive. I just like my keepers a little more and have a high pick. - Bacon Aug 20, 07:58
        
        I won't help her beat me. I am drafting 4th, I will get one of my players -- nm - Bacon Aug 20, 07:55
She probably is; but for the guys who need them, why bother? - Will Hunting Aug 20, 07:36 4
- because not everyone picks in the first 3 picks? -- nm - groiny Aug 20, 07:37 2
  - Nope, but the people in the bottom 6 are people where the draft pick is valuable enough - Will Hunting Aug 20, 07:38 1
    - not even, she would have been silly not to take a 3rd rounder for a cut. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 20, 07:39
- This. Last 2 weeks before BF Draft are a huge buyer's market. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 20, 07:37
She tried. -- nm - Strongbad Aug 20, 07:36
