Don't worry, I'll solve that problem.

Didn't you just take Dan Carpenter or did I miss something?

Hey Gabe, when are you doing the power rankings?

 

My guess after the draft, he doesn't jump the gun before teams are complete like some people.

Just messing around. Plus there are a lot of teams to get through. Might as well do it while everyone is actively playing.

You might be the most inconsistent team in this league with Manning and CJ as your QB RB tandem lol

I don't recall Eli being significantly inconsistent when watching the Giants this year. That's coming from somebody who's despised him throughout the majority of his career.

I think last year was his most consistent season.

Thank you horus for posting my pick.  BTW, you have Grim to blame for it as I wanted to take Osi but he beat me to it.

 

With my last pick, I wanted to take a pass rusher who will play in my sub-packages.  With the team I have now I can create a nickel defense which was my goal all along, to draft an extra CB and DL on defense.  

 

In the draft section of the board, many people were mocking use Quanterus Smith in the late rounds and I kept saying that he would be a day 2 pick.  It turns out I was wrong but, I think Smith is going to make everyone pay for skipping him.  He is reported to be doing very well in camp so far and is turning quite a few heads.

 

For me, Smith will be a situational pass rushing.  In nickel situations, my DL will be:

Smith - Michael Bennett - Geno Atkins - Junior Gallette

 

I think that is a very good pass rushing defensive line.

you're most welcome, always here to help a friend in need; i do have this strange feeling that everything around this draft has something to do with Grim lol

 

agree wholeheartedly on your assessment of Quanterus, seen quite a few reports myself; got two other players that can give me something similar to him, but at this moment i'm leaning to get some cover at a different position with my last pick (not ST though)

 

ps: my pick's with CARavensFan if I'm not around

Regardless of the players on your team I give you the award for the best team name in the process.

Sorry for the hold-up. Didn't check the forum before leaving for work earlier today.

I like the pick. He was my backup choice if Smith was gone.

love the pick

 

Thanks. I strongly considered an offensive skill player but decided to take a flier on Babin. He and Idonije are quality sub-package players to rotate in when Bunkley isn't needed.

I like my team flying under-the-radar.

Your team is definitely the youngest. There will probably be some growing pains for the first couple years. But in 3-5 yrs could be dangerous.
