  • 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!

    Did that a while ago when I put your posts on ignore. As Ag pointed out there are other alternatives to getting huffy...

    Which, as I told bb, I may have to forward along with my Round three big Board as I will also not be very available this weekend. Trip delayed from two weeks ago when I had a stomach thing.

  • Alright... here's a list of those who have produced the longest delays thru the first two rounds and change...

    • Tour (me): 13:39, 5:28 - first was primarily over nite, but I do night owl at times and sleep in.
    • LondonB: 13:27 - UK time difference
    • gftChris : 13:01, 11:41 - UK time difference
    • PoeticG: 11:03 - One very busy day?
    • ConnerL: 3:34, 9:26 - work day access restriction
    • Gipper: 4:17 - weekend, minimized by considerate look in.

    Those of us that have a pattern to our delays, i.e., every one listed except PoG, need to look ahead to be sure we are messaging picks, including enough alternatives, to cover our absence. As a guideline for how far ahead to look, I'd recommend allowing for a hour per pick recognizing that consecutive picks by the same member should be considered to be one pick.

    Ditto the above for anyone not listed who knows they are going to be out of pocket, e.g. bbedward who messaged me about this weekend.

    Who to message? Here are the members who have proven to be most timely in posting picks.

    • Ag
    • Taco
    • Flyin J
    • Gip (weekdays)
    • BnMopar
    • Mud

    In other words plenty to choose from...

    Let's focus on messaging the rest of Round Three and see how it goes.

    If necessary, starting in Round Four, we will start making picks for those MIA...

  • I think the longest I have been on the clock is an hour or 2 ....... I have it open at work

    2:49... but it was very late at nite, so I gave you a break... 😉

  • I almost doubled down on WRs for Buffalo with Dede still there,but.....

  • Round Two Summary:

    Offense: 15

    QBs - 2; RBs - 3; WRs - 3; TEs - 2; OTs - 1; OGs - 2 ; OCs - 2

    Defense: 17

    Edge - 4; DT - 0; ILB - 1; OLB - 1; CB - 6; S - 5

    S/T -- 0

    Observations:

    • The O closes the gap.
    • The DB depth shows.
    • No DTs after 3 in Round One.

    Summary of first two rounds:

    Offense: 27

    QBs - 4; RBs - 6; WRs - 6; TEs - 3; OTs - 3; OGs - 3; OCs - 2

    Defense: 37

    Edge - 10; DT - 3; ILB - 4; OLB - 3; CB - 9; S - 8

    S/T -- 0

  • The year of the Secondary huh?

  • Wargo Riley maybe a one year wonder! I see character and ST too and if his running mate at Lsu is available at NO comp pick......who knows there is something to be said about Local talent....!

  • Don't really understand why some are in such a rush to get this draft done. I totally appreciate you Tour and you're doing good work but Goddamn man the draft is 40+ days away.

    If we do a full 7 rounds it may take most of those 40 days. Some people lose interest and drop out after a few rounds.

  • I enjoy the later rounds the most...trying to get a gem in the 6th or 7th

  • It looks like there are at least 27/28 picks left in this third round. I doubt that my picks in the 4th round will be gotten around to until next week. I may try to peek in on the weekend...but we shall see.

    Maybe go ahead and list the order of the 4th round picks anyway at least.
