I edited that one few times last year in replies, nobody noticed. Wonder why.

Bet you're glad you asked the question of how much of a commitment it would be first.  Had you just signed up, you would have been slot 31 and near the end of the run.

I'm ready to surprise at #2.

Maybe.

Or am I just playing mind games?

Or am I just playing mind games about playing mind games?

You do realize the Baltimore Orioles aren't part of this game and the Boston Braves are now the Skins.....right

Funny how things work out. Although my team pick was going to be random either way. At least this way it's my own randomness, and not just the result of everyone else.

you get in at the last moment and you pick first.  @hawkprey  Guess it's the luck of the draw.  no pun intended.

Might pay to keep the team commentaries to a minimum until the sides are selected.

I wasn't really leaning towards Detroit one way or the other. And I doubt there's a person here who doesn't know about it

 

 

I get what you're saying though

It's more about the same kind of courtesy as not talking about players who haven't been drafted yet.

Selection thread is up and pinned. It is set to automatically unlock at 7PM - 

 

[Mt. Crushmore]

I've got my top 2 choices locked in. One should be pretty obvious

Yeah I think we all have a good feeling who you are going for(unless you are tempted by another situation that is pretty good itself)

[JO_75]

Doing some last minute research here in the final 45 minutes or so. What's the Over/Under on how many picks we get through tonight?

My board's been more or less set for a while. This is going to feel like a long wait. 

[52520Andrew]

I am happy I waited to set mine lol, I have it in pretty decent shape but a lot of research to do. Hopefully my workload is cut down a good bit tonight(by a bunch of teams that I do not want lol)

[Dubs]

Guess I don't have to do much thinking for my pick..some perks to being last I guess. I think I may be surprised by who I get though, in a good way

Could always have someone end up being skipped and get to choose

Didn't that happen to Geving at #1 last year? A couple of skips isn't out of the question.

That is true...I am actually kinda excited just to take whoever I get, I had a hard time trying to decide who I actually wanted when thinking before.

 

On a side is it stated anywhere when salaries are set. By this I mean if/when Joe Flacco restructures what date is our cutoff to count the restructure or any changes that occur contract wise?
