  1. Totally agree. He has a similar value to R.Ayers, as they're both effective (even if rotational) pass-rushers, but Lynch has just 1 season under his belt which makes him a little more enticing (imo).
  2. Same here.. my top 15 has been touched twice in the last 20 picks.
  3. I feel your pain, berad. I'd donate you an OT ... if I had one.
  4. eheh it worked the same for me with Walker, as I passed on him for Landry and luckily he was still there one round later. Those little satisfactions ;D
  5. Oh.. I was 100% sure Daryl was far gone.. and I was deadly wrong.. another very good pick; good day today.
  6. Oh.. another nice pick. My top RT on board. Those receivers picks didn't effect me at all, but this last one hurts.
  7. Easy, next round: with the blablabla.. the Banana Republic select Bradley Cooper, SNIPER.
  8. Wise choice. I love this 'mental' side of the game.. things you don't need to care of on fantasy football. You're also brought to inform yourself a lot more bout players you didn't even know the names of. I start to think I won't join a fantasy league at all this summer. p,s; how do you guys plan to work this ravensnick thing out? If he's been skipped 6 times, hence 5 allotments, is his clock down to 22 minutes from now on? Just to know.
  9. Smith at this point is the definition of steal imo. We know him; not the most reliable guy and not a big help at blocking, but he's important to stretch the field and opponents do know him well too.
  10. Solid pick in Bethea. I like it.
  11. Yes, he was already 5 times.. even in the land of unicorns (with 3 skips per allotment) he would have just a 6h clock (according to my time-zone he had from 8.33 am-14:33), and that time expired like 50 mins ago.
  12. We should have 4 pick in a row coming.. looks good.
  13. Ok, deal, you take Walker and I keep his angry gf+tons of secure twitter passwords. Sorry, I can't exchange the small man.. he has a huge teeth gap.. that's rare man.
  14. Ahah sorry man. There is another TE I absolutely love and I would have waited for if I didn't go with Walker, but quality TEs are few compared to other skill positions and a man can't keep telling himself 'next round'.
  15. Mike Iupati, that's all.. but if you're sitting between the 10th-20th pick every round you have few choices as the best bargains are made on the verges, were runs on positions start. I don't eat crumbs the others leave me just because I'm afraid I can't match-up. I rather build up another solid block (my receivers match perfectly what I want from my pass-first offense: possession+YAC, deep threat, the perfect slot guy and a great TE who can create mismatches and block for my numerous screens; I have one of the best NTs in the game, one of the best 3tech penetrators who never had help around in his team and couldn't show up and will force the QBs out of the pocket where I have a great OLB duo. This unit can also turn easily to a 4-3 with one of the best coverage ILBs in the middle playing either the zone or a TE). Also, I think that it's easier to put together an Oline with sub-par (on paper) players who will gel together than a dominant front 7 made of garbage individuals. I still have some good DBs left on board and I'll anyway put together a better unit than our Ravens' last season (with Jimmy out)
  16. They even just wrote an article 'bout him on the NFL site. I have no secondary nor O-line, but such a player doesn't last 40 more picks.
  17. I could have gone with a very valuable player in a position of need, but Walker can catch, break tackles and is a great blocker. Had to go BPA.
  18. With the 331th overall pick, the Banana Republic select: Delanie Walker, TE
  19. My Landry pick has cause almost as much panic as Emma Stone in this forum.
  20. My first popular pick, seems like.
  21. Yep, my receiving core is filled. Better build up a secondary and an Oline (if the value is there) now.
  22. Didn't mean to diminish the pick anyway He's a good pick and has time to improve, just not a huge steal as PFF pass-rushing ranking would indicate, imo.
  23. Considering I've selected only one Olinemen so far I had to opt for a pass-first offense.. screens and slants all day long. A solid slot WR was perfect for me at this point and who better than a young top 5 slot player who can block? I was close to grab another player (different position) but I went with my functional Landry.
  24. Ye I think the spot fits him good too. I read it here http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2279329-how-robert-ayers-jr-can-help-the-new-york-giants-pass-rush. Maybe I just misinterpretated due to the clear language limitations.
  25. With the 310th overall selection the Banana Republic select: Jarvis Landry, WR
