  • Some of these picks may not match with the team needs..

    NYG aren't happy with their OL just because they were able to sign Future Hall Of Famer DJ Fluker.. they need at least 1 LB ideally 2, an OT [Fluker is at best a maybe.. if he's the answer what was the question] and a TE. Rhett Ellison isn't an answer to anything other than "Who is the 45th best player on any team" .. and someone named Johnathan Hankins needs to be resigned or replaced..

    Jacksonville needs an OT, yes, and an RB seems nice.. but they really need top DE help because Dante Fowler is a bust.

    Carolina needs upgrades at both OT spots and CB after someone named Josh Norman left town.. Hint: TreDavious White is available, and Atlanta needs DT help not DB so he'll be available at your spot..

    New Orleans.. has arguably the absolute worst starting LB's in the league.. Two fossils named James Laurinaitis and Paul Kruger logged substantial time for them this past season.

    Philadelphia.. Starts 2 CB's who wouldn't make the Browns roster, signed Alshon Jeffrey in free agency, and first round goes WR?

    Indy.. Frank Gore went for 1k last season, none of their LB would take undrafted Cam Johnson's place on the Browns' roster.. and round 2 is a RB? Put it this way.. they just signed someone named Barkevious Mingo..

    Tampa Bay.. They have 2 good-to-great LB's in Kwon Alexander and Lavonte David and zero safeties with NFL-caliber coverage skills.. and the first round is ILB?

    Denver.. Okung signed with Chargers, so even after signing Menelik Watson, they need 2 starting OT's.. Yes, TE/WR may be usefully interesting, but they have significant holes especially with Ware retired.

    Detroit.. They have Ziggy Ansah and Kenny Hyder, so I'd think their barely-NFL-caliber DT's would be the need rather than Carl Lawson in the 2. And none of their starting LB corps would make the 2017 Browns roster [Levy was released].

    Oakland.. Another team needing 3 new LB's and 2 new DT's yet received none so far..

    Seattle.. They've needed OL help seemingly forever, yet no OL help has arrived yet. Wait, I forgot about Luke Joeckel.. just like every team he's played for.

    I didn't become the GM of a top tier team because I pick solely on need.

    I became GM because I picked the Chiefs and got stuck with the Seahawks as well.

    Will start pushing this practice harder next round. Certainly when within 2 picks of being OTC it should be doable.

    And in keeping with that... PM coming your way, Ag...

    I suspect he will make it when he gets back later today along with the Browns and mine for SF and Chicago. Heading out now for racquetball. Back in a couple of hours.

    Takes one to know one, asshole.

    Can we go back to commenting on picks now, or are you incapable of communicating without personal insults?

    I'll apologize but as Billy Joel would say. We didn't start the fire. 1.You were asked to delete a comment in picks,than refused 2. Most don't do well, with people that have to pat them self on their own ass,besides their own back..In your own opinion Concurring both Balt. needed picks than reticulation of others picks..Good Luck..am moving on

  • Gumby Dammit can take over our team from here. Won't be available tonight, working all day Thursday ... and good luck getting a hold of me on Friday, Saint Patrick's Day. (Good day to be an asshat, it will probably go unmonitored)

    If you need something pinned or deleted, ask Mark or Hoorta, I think they have those controls.

    If you need something green to drink ... I'll be at The Pub in Naples all day Friday.

    Cheers!! You do realize how many NY Giants Catholic Fans travel from NY to Fla? They all owe it to you on drafting Kizer. Have some Fun & don't 😉 EDIT (T, Z does know a Temple 🙂)

    With the weather here, why the hell am I not there to join you?

  • I took Adam Shaheen for the Jags. TE from nearby Ashland College. Some say he could be the next Antonio Gates. Converted basketball power forward....both from the Neopolitan. Who knows.

  • And ironically enough Mahomes was actually BPA for SF. And there was one good CB, but Da Bears are loaded with DB's now with FAs and two high draft picks prior to this pick. Time for OL biggies.

  • Chargers were waiting for Pat Mahomes there to learn behind Mr Rivers but wasn't to be

  • Did we not have 2 other instant links to prospect boards besides CBS? picks now split up,could get even slower. maybe keep links in team or positions taken for quicker access? thanks

    I'll put links I have in first post of the Players Taken by Position thread.

  • Did ConnerL leave rank order picks with anyone? He's up again.

    gumby sent me rank order picks for Zombo's Giants in case we get to them by later this afternoon.

    PM sent to ConnerL when this was entered.

    No... at least I did not receive any. If true to form it'll be this afternoon before he'll be on again.

    What I am going to do this morning is chart time between picks to drive home to folks their "contribution" to our progress... or lack thereof... and the need to message out picks.

    I do have a provisional pick by One Post in a PM.

    I use CBS just because it is one that I have always looked at..and to be consistent with what I put down. But certainly there are many other "prospect ranking services" out there. Any one of you are welcome to put links to those, or list the best remaining from those.

    For something like ESPN's you have to pay them to get the info that I get for free from CBS...another reason I use them. If Kiper didn't charge for access to his Big Board I would probably use that. If any of you get that...please, by all means, put it up for us to see.

    I was going to give my picks to you with a PM in the event I was not around the board....but you decided to block me from sending you any...so, in the future all y'all may have to wait for me to make picks if the time is not right.

    Gip feel free to send them to me since I am here at various times throughout the day and evening.

    And thanks for keeping up the CBS best prospects. I also use a couple of others to supplement when I have a need to fill, just in case a BPA elsewhere fills the need. I used that for Chicago's last pick of an OG.

  • I'm unavailable all weekend so I will forward round 3 picks to Tour and if they're unavailable he can pick for me

  • I'll clean out my inbox. Thank you guys you sexy bitches!
