REMINDER:

 

Please don't begin discussing trades until everyone has a team.  Let's keep it fair for everyone and give them a chance to make a contending offer.

@PaRAYdise hit the jackpot with the Eagles. They keep locking up players(just gave Vinny Curry $47.25M) and it's making things easier on him since the rosters aren't locked yet. What a coup.

Would have taken Philly regardless. Knew it was just a matter of time til they would sign curry and was really happy when it happened an hour ago

And I'll officially get 1 of my 3!

The Patriots, Steelers and Bengals? I think it was safe to say you were getting one of those three a while ago.

My first time playing, will be a learning experience

Boo! I already had a deal to get a punter. All I had to give up was my 1st rd pick!

You're off to a good start, picking you team fast

That is definitely true.  Big time learning curve and I was brought in after the team selection when the Dolphins and Skins were available.  I took a team I was more familiar with, the Redskins and on another board I had the Saints, although there wasn't any free agency.

Chicago has a decent base roster as well as about 60 mil in cap.

Though when they resign Jeffery that # is sure to go down

I didn't have them in my top seven, but the Bears were one of the sides I was most interested in. I had a whole plan outlined for them and everything.

No QB there though, unless you count Buttfumble.

Same here... that's what I'm worried about.

 

Depends on what he wants to do at QB. Franchise Bradford, let him go, trade/sign another veteran QB or give Doug Pederson a rookie QB in a trade up. 

I am in a good position as I can decide what I want to do at QB. There are definitely some teams that would love to have the "problem" of tagging Bradford.

And they get Fowler back. 

Hell yeah !!

I'm so close.. Jags were my top choice. That's unfortunate. Still have my #2 there, though!

Important bookmark for now as you start looking at your teams. List of traded draft picks. @rmw10 will sort through everything and create the draft board

Yep.  Planning on getting the draft board up and running in the next couple of days.

Anyone talked to Jazz?

@jazz1988 Hello

[ravensdan]

Browns... I never know why they get picked so early every year. I would never want to fix that team. If I had the last pick and I had to take them I would try to disband them.

Lots of cap space and a high draft pick every year, but they're still the Browns.  I fell into the trap my first year playing, too.

@jazz1988 is online, so your pick shouldn't be far off.

Sorry to pilfer your board like that, but there are still some good picks around!

I'll keep an eye on the Chiefs next year since they started out 1-5 and won 10 straight, see if they can match/beat the Panthers 18-0 regular season record. My other choices were still available. I should have picked a team in the top 10 draft need, oh well. Will be fun

You've got a ton of quality Free Agents to deal with though

Sorry my bad for the late selection I was online but was focus on some other stuff at the time and got a phone call that was important. I made my selection though

[rmw10]

Picture hunting.  I'll have my selection up in a few.

[ClintLB8]

Unbelievable.. a team I didn't think makes it out of the top 5 falls to 12 when I had the 14th pick. Of course..

It's all good, just making sure you knew as it is easy to get absorbed into other parts of the forums

The Bucs would have been my pick if the Jags were gone. Now there are only two of my top seven sides left.

[rmw10]

Panthers... SO. MUCH. YOUNG. TALENT.
