Against my better judgement, throw my name is for UDFA.  I can always back out if it's going too slow.  Luckily I have some time since spring break = slow work week.

Already had you pegged as a participant. Like you've said, you could always drop out or ask to be skipped until you're ready.

I mean that the window will open, but we'll only start if we're finished by the draft. We definitely won't start picking before the 7th round is fully finished, don't worry.

Alright, well I hope I can make my pucks in the next hour or so so we can start with signing the UDFA.

You know what happens when you're unclear about your participation and then clear it afterwards?

Got the verbal go-ahead from JoeyFlex5 about the recent selection on his behalf. Not sure what to make of Cannon, but he could be a decent deep threat. Adds some depth to the Lions WR corps.

I'm surprised he made it this far - he's a guy with some intriguing tools who had a lot of opportunities in college - I've seen him go as early as the 4th in some places - I have his value somewhere around the 6th but I'm surprised he lasted this long in the draft - he really could develop into a good deep threat for a team lacking some speed downfield - the kind of guy that the seahawks for example have done well with like Paul Richardson

Yes! I'm glad that somebody caught that reference. I haven't followed wrestling much since roughly a decade ago, but this bit was golden.

No one liked me drafting Xavier Woods either, thought that one may have got a few thumbs up from wrestling fans.

Anyway its a new day so dont be sour

I figured you'd be relieved to see him finally fly off the board since you mentioned him a while back in the PM. I do feel like he could be a solid deep threat, or at least somebody who could make the defense from cheating up. I was going to take myself in the UDFA rounds, but I thought he made more sense for Detroit. Their 3rd and 4th WRs behind Golden Tate and Isaiah Ford are Jace Billingsley and Jared Abbrederis, and I figured that Cannon could provide them with the element of speed, which wouldn't be wasted with Mathew Stafford at QB. He'd also have the opportunity to compete for either of the aforementioned reserve spots.

Oh, yes. I saw that but completely forgot to comment. I gave it an immediate +1 but it may have been erased by someone else. Definitely a necessary reference.

The list is finalized. I'm asking a non-participant to randomize the order for each round. We will begin when the final 7th round selection is made.

[JoeyFlex5]

Good pick on my behalf @-Truth- thanks m8!

Wow. Basically a No.1 sandwich of rmw10 and myself.

[rmw10]

Getting that last pick in the 3rd hurts though.

[ArsenalRaven666]

With five 1st picks @-Truth- is dancing round the room

Once @CalvinSmoke submits his selection, I'll submit the two remaining ones for Denver and we'll begin the UDFA process.

[ArsenalRaven666]

Will be at work tomorrow but will keep my notes with me.

[rmw10]

TJ Logan was the one of the guys I "selected" with one of my 7th rounders had I kept them.

I think Brendan Langley is this year's Tray Walker (RIP).  Small school guy with great size and a ton of scheduled visits.  Not a lot of tape out there but I like some of the cutups I've seen on Twitter.  I'd guess he'll go in the top half of day 3.

[-Truth-]

I'm taking Jahad Thomas here earlier than expected. He's not the highest ranked RB on the board, and he sometimes struggles with breaking through the first level, but his set up on open field moves is outright filthy. He uses his entire body to misdirect defenders, including head fakes. He caught my eye last season and I feel like he could be a solid contributor. I'd advise checking out his highlight video (Link) for anyone interested.
