Draft Review & Thoughts

We had a great turn out for our first live draft, 8 people participated. The others looked to have set their roster so everyone is active this year. There was some surprises this year. Lots of wide receivers went early along with a defense in the 2nd round. 2 of the top 4 running backs made it to the 6th pick. Even the Pressure participated in the early wide receiver picks by picking Randy Moss. <-- This was a shock!

Scrappers and Delusions of Grandeur were the fastest pickers in the draft with all of their picks being done in less than 5 minutes. They seemed to have a game plan and executed it without second thoughts.

Based on a poll on the website most people are happy with how their team turned out. There are only 4 people with either negative or undecided feeling about their teams.

Even with the draft being so close to the start of the season, people hit the waiver wire. Scrapper's picked up Mark Sanchez, Pimps with limps picked up Cardinals DST, Reddoggs picked up Matt Stover, Engima picked up Brent Celek.

Having the draft late this season made for the anticipation of the football season easier. Everyone seemed to really like the live draft format and the late draft. Maybe we will look to doing this again next year.

Overall, everyone got who they were after and are looking forward to the season. I can't wait to see how everything plays out.
