i offered you gore for PRACTICALLY nothing!
MJD is so confused here in Arizona. He doesn't understand what he did to make you send him away. He thought things were going so well.

Do you want DRich on my team? Dude has like 100 Elu but won't see time behind greenwood, pead and whoever I draft.
Am I a dick for asking what you would have offered?
I told him signed sealed and delivered.....fucking shit -_-
Don't worry, there's no way Carroll will drop to 7.

i didn't bother wasting any scouting points on aaron carroll because everyone was jocking him and i figure i had a 0% chance to get him at the end of the first. does he just have some insane stats or what?
He's projected #1 why would the game lie.

Zuzek's #1 projection was well deserved.

zach richmond....
why did i waste a 3rd rounder on this doucher! or maybe it was a late 2nd
You never know, the top 6 teams have far more pressing needs than receiver and they all have legit #1s

but cola is in that top 6 and he is saying that there is no way he wont pick carroll if he's there
If I don't get the player I want I might think about it
I'm not saying you're wrong, but what prompted this?
Pretty good weekend of pre-draft activity for the Panthers. Strengthened my WR corps and got some depth with another mid-round pick in the Maclin/Beason trade, and still managed to work my way into the Top 10 like I originally wanted.
I still have second thoughts but too late for me. I hope I don't regret this....
and yes Cola did say Carroll isn't dropping...Cola also has literally zero quarterbacks
You can have Helu back for a pick

Welcome to the the first DCX Mock Draft.
- This will be the first and final mock i make for this off-season.
- Doesn't take trades into effect so it's final as of tonight Nov 2
- CB will end up with the best lineman as he will tumble down.
- This year i will spotlight " gem ", " bust alert " and " no brainer " picks of the draft
- This is not the Official Draft order. I did my best in guessing what they would be
Lets get it on!!
1-Finishing with just 2 wins, the Jags have alot to prove this season. Looking at the roster they need help at QB, Oline to name a couple. I believe Gabbert can still provide decent QB play so they go with LT Daniel Graham
2-A coaching change could bring a change in philosophy for the Titans this season. Glaring weaknesses on the defense. An upgrade in the LB or CB would help immensely. I think the pick here is MLB Brandon Zuzek
3-Entering the draft the Browns had two gaping holes one offense, QB and WR. They locked up a QB with the excellent free agent signing of Joe Flacco and now add a weapon here with WR Treon Patrick
4-The Cowboys had a disappointing season especially with the talent on the roster. They have a glaring hole a CB as they only carry three on the roster heading into the draft but C or one of the safety spots could use upgrading. The play here is C Jordan Lonas
5-The Cards had two big holes to fill. The QB position and RT. Kurt Warner came back to play for the Cards and now they draft RT Mathew Houston
6-Where to start. Management didn't see eye to eye with QB Joe Flacco so they benched him in favor of Tyrod Taylor. Ray Lewis retired. What kind of team this becomes this year is a mystery but what's not is the need for a QB and C. Tyrod gets competition with free agent signing Troy Smith and They go C Brent Vincent
7-The Jets need help on the oline. Lacking a RG and RT so they go best available here at those position with RG Kendrick Rose
8-Losing out on free agent CB Antoine Cason is leaving a void in the secondary. They aim to fill it here with 6' 2" CB Sione Taufa
9-The Panthers were stunned by the retirement of thier star WR Steve Smith. He has been the go to man for QB Cam Newton. With this pick they get him a new target, a huge one standing 6'4 and a solid 232, WR Antwan Barr
10-After stunning the world and trading away super star WR Larry Fitzgerald, the Cards are poised to take his replacement here. WR Bryant Ford
11-Seatle has been licking it's chops all draft to get one of thier top targets fall to them, the top dog has. With three TEs on the roster, the Seahawks add another one in what they believe is a superstar in the making with TE Marion Marks
12-The Packers have very little holes. The trade winds are swirling around the trading of Aaron Rodgers. It remains to be seen if he does get moved but at the time being the roster needs some dline help especially at DE. The pick here is the best one on the board RE Jordan Grable
13-The Falcons had a good year finishing 6-10. Good you say? Despite QB Matt Ryan throwing 63, yes 63! interceptions, they managed to win six games. If Ryan can throw half that could add 2-3 more wins. The Falcons were hoping Marks would fall into thier laps but thats highly unlikely unless they trade up. They take best available here with CB Maka Lisi
14-The Chiefs just made a trade with the Falcons acquiring Pro Bowl CB Asante Samuel. In doing so they now have a hole at TE that will be filled here with TE Mark Pantages
15-Madden curse struck WR Calvin Johnson. They also got hit hard losing all thier defensive ends to free agency. They hope to fill one of the spots here with the No Brainer pick of the draft RE DJ Lumpkin
16-This is the Redskins pick ( sorry Mcniely ) and it will be used to give the defense an added punch with SS Calvin Williams
17-Tampa Bay suffered a big loss losing LB Geno Hayes and look to replace him here with MLB Kendrick Chapman
18-QB Ryan Tannehill had a decent start to his pro career. The lack of decent targets makes what he did even better. The GM hopes to give him a new target at either WR or TE and the depth at WR in the draft wins out. WR William Mumphrey
19-The Vikes GM, and sexy smooth crooner, won the GM of the year award with the signing of WR Chris Owusu. He was tearing up NFL defenses having the league file many complaints to the league offices about potential PEDs. In this off-season they addressed the SS position with the signing of underated ex Falcon William Moore. Now they address the FS spot with FS Rob Boyle
20-The second first rounder for the Rams look to bolster the LB corp with LOLB Edward Matthews
21-One of the big winner in free agentcy was the Bengals with the signing of WWE castoff, Laron Landry. He does one thing and one thing great, SMASH! He created a log jam at the safety position but it was worth it. here they select best available with ROLB Ahmad Williams
22-What does a team that doesn't need much help do? Get depth. In this case the Saints have a ton of LBs. It keeps them fresh at all times on the field and they add to it with LOLB Rayquez Stephens
23-The Philly Gm has a knack of getting gems at the back end of the draft and we will spotlight this pick as the GEM of the draft. The enigma of the entire draft is the surprising choice mid season in college to change positions. It cost him in dollars as he slipped. The Eagles aren't going to let this once in a lifetime athlete go past them. The pick is WR Xavier Waters
24-The Colts made a splash in free agency signing the stud LT Branden Albert. Looking to protect Luck and give the oline the rush it needs to allow the RBs to get to the second level. It allows the Colts to draft with calm and taking wha is given to them. How about the best DT on the board. DT Nick McGovern
25-The Giants need help at LG. So they get it with LG Connor Taylor
26-Needing help at both safety spots, the Broncos signed ex Patriot SS Patrick Chung and now look to draft his new running mate with FS PL Wilson
27-With TE Marion Marks gone the entire draft board is in flames. Once they got it put out there was only one name left. DT Jesse Crenshaw
28-Losing LB James Harrison will be tough for the Steelers. He was the driving force behind that defense along with Troy. Big shoes to fill and this guy intends to wear them well. ROLB Tyrell Stephens
29-Raiders have been looking for a franchise QB for a long while. QB Zach Richmond was the only one in the green room. Chewing on some Starburst he got the call. The Bust Alert is high with this one. Sources say he has the potential to be even worse than Ryan Leaf and Raiders own JaMarcus Russell. QB Zach Richmond
30-A team with amazing talent in all but one area. The Texans look to solidify their offensive line with RT Stephen Johnson
31-The Bills had a fantastic run to the Super Bowl and may be looking for an upgrade at QB or adding a weapon to allow Fitzpatrick and the Bills Super Bowl glory. I think the Bills will choose WR Corey Henderson
32-The Super Bowl champs have very little needs. The GM isn't in love with either QB at this stage of the game even with Alex Smith delivering the Lombardi Trophy. The pick here is QB Will Myers

53 is a minimum not a maximum right?
Wait...fucking really???
I really regret making that trade now...I know exactly what you two fucks are going to do
I doubt it =)

It's both, the game won't allow you to be over 53. Although everyone will want to be down to 53 before we sim the preseason, otherwise the CPU will make the appropriate cuts for you.
Pick 1 on Aarin Carroll, Pick 11 on your QB...or the other way around
I just fucking KNOW it
It's both I think. The game doesn't allow you to be 53...
The only reason I raise this issue is because last year Ramirez had a grand total of 38 players on his roster because he had a bunch of expensive guys and no cap room to sign any more little ones and we made it mandatory for him to reach 53. so are we going with the same rule? because I can't see anybody going "oh boy I've got tons of guys to cut!"

Yea same rule, no reason to get rid of it.

yes, i will be checking before the start of the season to verify that everyone has 53 people on their roster and i will be checking periodically throughout the year. much easier to do on the website than in-game!
so you all will know the seriousness of my warning, i shall say this in english:
as your co-leader, I encourage you from time to time, and always in a respectful manner, to question my logic. If you're unconvinced that a particular plan of action i've decided is the wisest, tell me so, but allow me to convince you and i promise you right here and now, no subject will ever be taboo. Except, of course, the subject that was just under discussion. The price you pay for having less than 53 men on your roster is.... I suspend your best player for 4 games. Now, if any of you sons of bitches got anything else to say, now's the fucking time!
