Not so much a :homer: .. It's a good pick at this point in the draft. This guy is LIGHTNING quick and should fit into the Colts rotation nicely .. The only 'gotchya' might be if they list him as LB instead of DE ..

Was really hoping he would have been there when I was up in the fifth. I have a feeling this guy is going to be a DL freak.

I don't hold out any hope for anyone I get in 4th round and beyond, so I could care less who you all draft....

You say the silliest things Burt! Maybe it is all that Greatful Dead music addling your brain, because you were wrong about this last year too:

You keep believing that Burt! :shades: I actually think these later rounds can make or break a draft .. this is the when a team manager can make his own 'luck' .. "Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity" ..

So who did you get in those later rounds that made an impact?

To quote Sgt Haden in 48 Hours: "Just cause you say it with conviction don't mean shit to me..."

How about Mike Wallace in both Frenzy (4.02) and SACD (6.10) in last year's draft? Decent rookie season and hopefully an even better sophomore season.

No darts thrown on that pick. He was a target in both leagues and I knew I'd be able to snag him with my last pick in each league. I didn't foresee him making an impact this quick however, but I knew he had a shot in a couple years if given the opportunity.

Valid point, but that makes him 1 out of what, 35 - 40 picks?

Your math is bad.. as is your assumption that every pick in the top 3 rounds is a 'hit' rather than expensive 'miss'. The example and point is that as many or more 1st round picks completely flame out as actually become productive ..

Re: 4.13 DL Jerry Hughes, IND
 
Wow, talk about "assumptions!" When exactly did I (or Burt) make any claim about "every pick in the top 3 rounds" being a hit? That would be rather ignorant a statement to make. But let's say your point is correct. Now whose math is bad? 1 out of 35 vs. a 50-50 shot. Hmmmm....

Besides, screw up the early part of your draft by say, picking a DT in the 1st and you have to pray that you hit on literally every single one of your late round picks to offset bad early picks.

Re: 4.13 DL Jerry Hughes, IND
 
And Mike Wallace 'made' your draft? I am not arguing you could get yourself a starting player, but they will be an average contributor, not a top tier dude who is going to help you into the playoffs, like a lot of 1st rounders will, but someone who is similar to another player you can pick up for $100 in FA auction...big deal...

No one other than you said all picks in the top 3 rounds are going to be hits...I just always have and always will put more effort into researching the earlier picks than the later picks...percentages for 'hits' in the top rounds are much higher...

You still haven't given any hard evidence that ANY of your picks from rounds 4 on down have 'made' your draft, of even had an impact on your Fantasy scoring...

Even the simplest of FF players know that you can't accurately judge a draft less than 3 years old, so I am not sure what you are looking for as 'proof'..

But if you look down my CHAMPIONSHIP roster and you will see it is chock full of low or undrafted selections: Tony Romo, Ryan Grant, Marques Colston, Brent Celek.. Plenty of late round developmental guys too: I would say that Justin Forsett was productive, Aqib Talib was an every week starter, Massaquoi had some big games and shows promise..

As for top-rounders, Limas Sweed and Ted Ginn are busts but Adrian Peterson, Desean Jackson. Joe Flacco and Curtis Lofton are high round starters. Seems at least 50/50 blend doesn't it?

Re-read the signature quote :idiot:

OR just keep throwing late round darts.. you guys seriously make it TOO easy for me. :shades:

No idea how your last post has anything to do with your 'making or breaking' your draft with late round picks comment...whatever..you keep wasting your time chasing your late round picks, and I'll keep throwing darts, and I'll see you in the playoffs again with your 'ready' made team handed to you a couple years ago.....

Re: 4.13 DL Jerry Hughes, IND
 
Hahahahahahahaha.. well there you have it! Clearly you have run out of logic so it is back to the bit about me taking over a 'ready made' team.. seriously?! That is a woman's tactic bringing up ancient :bs: I think there are 3 players left over from when I took it over, so time to :growup: buddy and take your FF thumpin like a man! LOL
