Cards were close to a deal to get 4 picks for 2 picks...fell through after the other owner had a full belly from dinner....Pick coming shortly....

I'll give you my 4 picks (1st, 2nd,3rd and 4th) for 2 picks (your 1st and 2nd)! ;)

[chasmvp19]

Sorry....pick already made...interesting offer though...

[Preds]

Has the Frenzy EVER seen WR's taken with the first 3 picks? Heck even the first 2?

The times, they are a changing!

[chasmvp19]

YOU gave us the recipe for success...we shall see how it plays out...was close to going kicker here, but no kickers were drafted to be eligible...

Shoot, I would have done that Chuck...you got greedy though, and wanted both my 1st and 2nd this year and next....

For the record, undrafted NFL rookie FA's are eligible for the the Frenzy Rookie draft. ;)

They become UFA's if undrafted.

The trick is drafting the RIGHT WR's. Much easier said than done!

[chasmvp19]

Well...I'll be watching closely to see how the pros do it....

[Royal Hawaiian Opihi]

I think there's pretty much consensus across the board who the top 4 WRs are this draft... and they should be the top 4 in this draft... but you never know.

Hmmmm...really? the first three yes, but the 4-7th seem to be pretty varying, depending on which 'expert' you are looking at...I hope it's FBG.

I know my preference for #4...maybe same one you are thinking of, but I bet its not.

I've seen the guy Jim is probably speculating about go as high as 2 in rookie drafts. All because of situation, not necessarily talent.

[Royal Hawaiian Opihi]

Love the second guessing, Burt. I didn't say I'D be picking the "consensus" 4th WR... just that many sites (not just FBG) have the top 4 WRs as the same. 3 & 4 aren't always in the same order... but it's pretty consistent.

Now I've got my own order. But I'm still quite a few picks away from 1.07. We'll see. If you're "jonesing" for a certain guy and he's still available at 1.07, make me an offer. I'm very willing to move down & acquire more picks in this year's draft.

Well, you didn't say anything about your leaning, and I did not interpret is as such...just commenting on your comment...

There you go again...always dissing my posts ...kind of like my 16yo daughter

Actually, I think the talent is there, too.

We are such geeks!! I love it!

[Royal Hawaiian Opihi]

BTW... Pat lands in the islands in 3 hours. I can call him on his cell if we get to his pick by then.

[Burt the Butcher]

I texted Jason to let him know he is up...not heard back yet...he and my daughter may be snoozing, as we have our granddaughters over her for the rest of the week.

For those of you who like reports from Rookie Mini Camps here is a real treat.


In an effort to save you some time so you can enjoy your Memorial Day period, and prep for all those college graduation parties, etc., I’d like to do a quick recap of reporting from all the rookie mini-camps, for all 32 teams, concerning all the rookies you are looking at from your favorite team, and/or for a Dynasty Rookie Draft purposes.

Here’s what the coach said about that high-round draft pick, after watching him from recent rookie mini-camps:

“We’re excited about ______ (fill in whatever rookie you were looking up info on). He’s as good and/or better than we thought. We’re really excited about what _______ brings to the table. ________ had a very good camp. We’re looking forward to a big year from ________. “

Here’s what the coach said about that undrafted free agent rookie long-shot you had your eye on:

“________ is working hard. __________ did some good things out there. ________ needs to keep working hard. We liked what we saw from _______.”

Here’s what the guys paid to follow the team said about the exciting rookie ________. “They really like this kid.“

Here’s what you never hear about any rookie from the rookie mini-camps:

“I was on the fence with _______, but after seeing him in camp just now, my suspicions were confirmed…we made another $#!tty draft pick. I’m not sure if the GM has his head up his ass, or just his scouts. Either way, I’m stuck with this turd. We can’t cut him already, but I’d like to speed up the inevitable if I could. What were we thinking? Is that microphone on?“

This would make for a great mad libs as well.
