If anyone sees Gunstar they might want to remind him it's his pick. I don't know how often he checks the thread since he doesn't post in it often. Also, Sable..better start narrowing it down!

edit: ah he just posted above me. I guess he's on top of things. If you want to PM me your top two picks that would probably make this process go faster.

Would be helpful to some if the divisions get drawn out with the potential owners to each team? I'm sure some would hate to get into a division like the NFC east this past season.

I think we should just use real NFL divisions... for a different schedule, FMT could just use one from the last few years..

(unless we're short on teams, of course)
 
i already confirmed we are using real NFL schedules. and no need to revert back to an old schedule as i have a generator which will allow me to generate an accurate NFL "2008" season (if the real NFL were to finish in the same manner that we did.... which is impossible since the real life 49ers will finish 2-14)

Then they can draft a new QB!

I would actually prefer getting into a tough division like that again.

Neato!
 
I played a random ranked game with my Broncos against a cheeser using the Chargers. 42-17 me. Needless to say, I really like my new team. It's nice to have a good secondary, though I really do miss Reggie Bush's speed. Travis Henry has a speed rating of 90, but compared to Bush, it feels like I'm running with Jamal Lewis.

How long are we expecting this to take? I agree it would be nice if people PMd picks when it nears their pick

(Also, to the powers that be, it would be nice to see the available teams combined into the posts that show the picks to date... I've got a good idea where I'll be leaning, but I'd hate to overlook someone).

FMT said the new league isnt starting for a few weeks so folks should collectively relax.

Play some Halo 3! :D

But the NFL is just getting interesting!!! :)

Oh well, I guess there's gotta be something to play... Halo 3, maybe... or VF5GH3CoD4OrangeBoxorsomething.

EDIT: Looking at that list, my preliminary question is what non-Seattle NFC West team will I end up selecting??? Or will I throw myself a curveball?

EDIT2: And I presume Rors is going to stick with the Raiders? No?

You already have our money, give me back my son!

Further, I thought the Panthers were off the board? I guess missed Matrix change his mind.
 
Sorry guys went to bed without sending my top 2 to fifty. Anyways to speed things up I'll take the only other team I've played with... the [edit removed]. Their defense is going to be a challenge.

Edit: If nobody saw that I'll switch my pick to the bears.

Give me an hour or two to decide on my team. This run of NFC North teams has really thrown off my draft board. :D

Times up :D jk

If you liked Peterson, you would definitely like Reggie Bush. He's pretty insane in this game. Defense is a little bad, but still. Carolina is still available as well, another good choice.

Hey why don't you shut the fuck up! They won't last to me anyway but maybe someone else was hoping for them.

That said I am pretty sure the team I want is the one you initially put down. ;)

I think the most important thing this year is having a good OLine. A D you can always pretty much fabricate, a running game is easy when you have the blocking, and if you lob it up even the worst receivers can make the catch. That's why it's impressive to me that Rors had the success he did with a not so good OLine AND a mediocre set of receivers.

Who are you going to play at QB?

I have no idea. Griese is the starter by default, so I'll probably go with that. Haven't played with them enough to decide really. Grossman does have a cannon arm still right? If so I might actually use him. Who would you recommend?

Grossman does still have the cannon, so that's nice for the deep passes. Griese is more accurate though, but has very little throw power. Either way, I would not recommend using Grossman first because his cannon arm will spoil you compared to Griese.

Matrix

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.
Someone better pick the Texans and prove that I suck really bad at the game by winning it all with them.

Hey for next season we should do the draft in reverse, only the Pats would still be for the worst team. :lol The damage I could do with a fast RB and a good OLine. :( I would take the Chargers or Vikings.
 

Lonestar

I joined for Erin Brockovich discussion
Still trying to figure out why I pick after Bob. I lost before him, he won the division (Which he brought up ad nausem) :p

I gave up on the Broncos doing anything long ago. Too many injuries and it got even worse yesterday. Hopefully everyone else beats them 44-7 and we get a great draft pick.

I'd aim for 10-7 if I were you.... I don't know if Shanahan would be back if they were all blowouts :)
