Draft a Franchise: Discussion

[BmoreBird22]

Last year, we went as long as the last person wanted. But there is no minimum. Anyone is welcome to drop out whenever.

Let's do 1000 rounds

Really nice pick in Branch, he was one of the 4 D linemen I considered when I got Jackson and Walker

Thank you kindly.

That's no good.  I'm not one to say no.

You and me went 53 man rosters

That's what I thought.  Wasn't sure.  At the rate we are going, we'll be done by this weekend. Haven't had much of a chance recently to re-up my list.

 

Went with Kareem Martin mostly because I'm a big fan and this was a good spot to nab him.  I like his talent.  

 

I'm just kind of picking on the fly at this point.  I have no board of which to speak.  I'm simply picking a position and then picking a player there.  No research or changing my mind at all lol

I've been doing that this whole time. Now I'm naming players and hoping they're available

[BmoreBird22]

Let's do it.

It'll be the most intense roster cuts ever

[rmw10]

For what it's worth, I'm down for 53 rounds + however many guys I need to fill my roster when I exclude IR and PUP guys, of which I have 2 now.

Keith would still be on the board, waiting to be picked in 1001st

[T3hRaven]

Tiny Richardson is supposedly having a good pre-season.

[SecretAgentMan]

I'd hope so

Nah I'm happy with my team. Don't see me adding another true piece. So bored of it haha.

I have Hundley in the future anyway so Mettenberger won't be a problem(even though I love him)

That we did. That we did.

Still in your little fantasy world, I see.

I'm probably going to drop out after my classes start. It is getting long.

I better start thinking of who I want to claim the rights to... Kendall Fuller 2015

[52520Andrew]

We could do a coach draft as well

Am I really so unfunny to the point where no one realizes I'm joking.

It's because I'm the punching bag BR Forums deserves. But not the one it needs.

Good choice with martin. I think he's going to start.

[BmoreBird22]

I was thinking about nabbing Darren McFadden, but those injuries

[PuRock]

Good picks Andrew.  A little upset you went with McFadden, because I was going to go with McFadden.  If he isn't the starter and you can minimize his touches (getting him his touches in space).  He could prove to be very useful and healthy.  

 

As for me, went with Vick.  I am going with the Jags process of slowly progressing Bortles.  Was thinking about bringing in another young QB to compete, but didn't want to create any confidence issues.  Vick is 34 and will get the chance to start w/ a good young team for me.  If he's good, my team will produce wins.  If he stinks, then it opens the door for Bortles.

Thanks.  Especially with the injuries they are facing.  Martin is a very talented player, just needs to refine some of his skills and be more consistent.  He was one of my favorite draft prospects.

But serving as a 3rd back role and limiting his touches should really help keep him healthy.  Having him run between tackles nth times a game (which isn't his forte) didn't help his production or durability.  Get him the ball in space.  He can accelerate quickly past linebackers and shed arm tackles by the safeties, if used correctly.

Thanks and yeah as the 3rd RB, I plan on doing just that. Thomas is okay in terms of speed and Ivory is better than most people think but McFadden is a true homerun threat at RB which I lacked. Maybe a Chris Johnson type role for him

Good pick in McFadden. I didn't know that he was still available.
