I'm out unless I find another one of my players is hurt, so pass right on by me.

He's not on the Big Board, unless there was a Sp error. Not really surprised he lasted this long though.

No, he was available.

[Archeearl92]

great pick, was on my shortlist if I needed a new LB !

[rmw10]

Can't even sit here and pretend that Riley is anything special, but I'll take him as my 7th LB.

I agree. He can't cover, but thought someone took him early. My bad.

[-Truth-]

I had no need for a 7th WR, but I've had Chris Conley on the list for a while and was surprised that he was still hanging around. I like the value at this point.

[gabefergy]

Branden Oliver shall be my Darren Sproles, he even wears the same number.

With that I think I am done, unless another injury comes up.

[-Truth-]

I am up again?

I remember our side conversation about Conley around 10 rounds ago.

Yes, sir. Forgot how far back it was. He'll serve as my insurance policy for Albert Wilson. I feel like one of them will win the starting job next to Jeremy Maclin.

Ha! Appreciate the shout out, RavensFanMania. Happy to help.

My #2 choice for OC is still on the board

I think I know who you are talking about, but I'm not sure I agree with you on him being a great OC.

I wouldn't call him the 2nd best OC in the NFL, but in terms of fit for my team he was #2 on my board

That makes more sense. I definitely uswd my personnel as a major factor in how I looked at the coordinators.

[ravensdan]

Picked Villanueva for devin smiths slot assuming he will miss some time. I don't need another receiver. You have to like and respect villanuevas background. And he has been playing well at tackle in the preseason. Likely short term in the roster but I like putting him in the team.

Andrew took the teams coordinator I was looking at , thanks for that, now not sure where I want to go there.

[52520Andrew]

I am done now by the way just in case anyone was wondering

[-Truth-]

Am I on the clock?

I dig it.  Back when I was slated to rate teams before I joined, yours was one I had pegged as having some potential, but I wanted to see how you filled things in.  I think you ended up doing pretty well in that regard.

[ravensdan]

I am also done now unless another major injury happens in the next two weeks. Considering my draft position I think I'm happiest with this team than any I've done in these games so far. It was another good and fun year.

On another note. Some of you might be interested Ross Tucker has started a new podcast analyzing college draft prospects every week. The first few have been interesting. Should be good as the season gets going.

Like the pick

 

I'll take that second part as a compliment

 

I really like what I have on defense in this one but my offense has too many question marks for me, I don't need them to be great but they need to at least be able to hold their own. I think overall I like my team from last year better than this one although both fall short on the Rams team I was able to put together in the forum mock to me. I think in this game I can get a respectable record at least due to my defense but beyond that, it depends on how good or bad my offense will be.

Thanks.  It all depends on Teddy and I think everyone here knows what I think about him

[ravensdan]

Teddy should be huge. Boy teams like the Browns, jets, bills, Texans, etc look really stupid right now. I would love to hear from their gms if they really dropped him because of a pro day or there was some other mysterious concern.
