Nico was a guy I was going to groan and pick if he made it back to me. Oh sure, it would've been my 5th WR, but as was the case when I took Moore - I had him in a tier above most other guys and believed sooner or later he'd ascend into a top spot on my squad or generate good trade value.

So hey, at least you saved me from myself.

You made me do the smart thing and take Alim McNeill. He's looked fantastic this year and really built on last season.

So 3/4 of my DL is in place with an average age of 23 and a TON of upside, IMO. Not to mention really solid production this year.

I'm kinda building this squad around next season knowing full well I'm not going to be able to get all the holes filled (man my OL is going to be a tire fire and I don't think the secondary will be much better) but I think that foundation is shaping up extremely well.

He was actually the top guy on my board as of last night.

Dang, what was with the run on cornerbacks this morning? I'm glad I got Sneed before that started.

Jaylon Johnson and Asante Samuel were both equally ranked for me so when Johnson went off the board, I had to take Samuel to at least start building a secondary.

Like you, I was getting nervous about being stuck at the back of a run and having nothing to work with. Once Tyson Campbell came off the board I knew I'd made the right call because that was a full-blown run at that point.

Yeah, Sneed was my next pick but obviously didn't make it to me. Looks like I started a little late with the CBs. But at 22 yrs, I couldn't let Pickens go.

I have an offensive lineman now!

To the 'ship!1!

**PHOG** · 10-19-2023, 04:52 PM

How's that for a run on RBs.

It's a copycat league.

Changed my board once Chubb came off. Knew it was time to take a 'back or pick through the scraps. Once dudes are taking severely injured RBs, pickings are going to get thin fast.

Awfully happy to get Pacheco that late.

Same here, I was fortunate to get Pollard I think when I did.

I went through the entire list tonight, it's getting to be slim pickings already. Going to take very knowledgeable players to put together a solid roster

Yeah, feel like Jackson was my first miss. One of those guys I moved to the top of the list on talent/age but didn't want to actually take him yet and didn't realize I'd left my auto-pick on.

Can't be doing that at this stage of the game. Gotta make the next dozen picks count or end up with some massive roster issues.

This is the game that Rain Man and I always imagined. Super competitive with lots of enthusiastic owners. NFL roster building hard. I wanted to play but I need to devote major time to redeveloping the game so we can keep it going.
