Suits me thanks Brinty. Did we ever hear from UnitedIrishman? Or is he still AWOL?

Perhaps he is simply a master tactician, he has ended up with the best draft out of everyone

Ooooohhhh still quite scorpy I see

I'm sorry buddy, I didn't mean to jokingly brag about my team that finished in the bottom half last year.

Can we be friends again? Otherwise we'll both be doing about 50% less trading over the season, and nobody wants that!

Why would i be scorpy about kid,

I got Christian McCaffrey, DeShaun Watson and Solomon Thomas and Marshon Lattimore.. and some other useless running back no one wanted..

I'm happy with my draft, they're all top caliber players

Still MIA unfortunately cos TBF him I know he's a good solid fantasy player.

Be funny when he eventually logs into boards and has 357 pm from Gerry looking for trades

Add a 0 to the end of that number, then ditto for me

brinty

To be fair to UI he was active in the post season, i accidentally asked for ogletree and he called me on not offering anything in return so i have faith he'll be active

I think I'm up again? Anyone interested in my pick?

5.03 for 5.01.... just to get things moving again:D

Limpar

At this stage, it might be best to see who actually wants to make a pick in the 5th/6th round(s) and work out the order from there?

Doogs27

Heres my highlight of the draft... Reuben Foster almost ending Brintys precious Fournettes life.

https://youtu.be/P-59rov_vQM

Ouch.

Tristram

Skipping this pick.

Stev88

Doogs27 asked me to put up his pick as he is travelling.

With pick 5.02, Da Vegas Crew select Tarik Cohen RB Chicago Bears

Stev88

With pick 5.03 Clowneys College select Desmond King Safety Los Angeles Chargers

Limpar

Realt Dearg is on the clock at 5.04.

gerryfed

Realt is across the pond so it'll prob be a couple of hours.

Maybe if anyone who has 5th and/or 6th round picks and doesn't want to use them, now would be a good time to let Brinty know and you can be scribbled off the remaining pick order.

Already covered Gerry, I've contacted everyone with 5th/6th round picks to see who intends using them.

That's why they pay you the big bucks my friend, good stuff!

Are the rookies ready to be added to teams after the draft finishes or does ESPN take a few weeks to add them? No rush obviously, just curious...

The rookies are already in the free-agency pool on ESPN.
As soon as we're finished the draft, I'll push a few people to drop enough players from their squad so that I can assign the rookies to their teams.

At what stage can we swoop in like vultures and take the players other guys drop?

The plan would be to leave a few weeks in between the end of the draft and the start of free-agency.
We'll then start the waivers and you can use your $100 budget to start bidding on players.

I think it's best to leave a gap and build up some anticipation for the start of the waivers. At that stage, I'm sure some of the undrafted rookies and other free agents will have built some momentum and noise in training camp.

Realt Dearg Sec

Well folks sorry once again for delaying things, will make my picks in the next little while

Realt Dearg Sec

Is Carlos Henderson not gone yet? If not I'll pick him

Limpar

Solid pick realt.

I've got Brintys selections and also UnitedIrishman's BPA selection.

Brinty pick 5.05 - Jake Butt, TE.
UnitedIrishman 5.06 - Patrick Mahomes, QB
Brinty pick 5.07 - Chad Hansen, WE
Brinty pick 5.08 - Wayne Gallman, RB.

Realt is back on the clock at 5.09!

Brinty must be ready to clear the decks at this stage with all of his picks! Is he banned BTW??

Yeah he's been banned for some reason but is trying to sort it out.
He mailed me on his picks this morning and luckily for him, they didn't cross over with Realt/UI!

gerryfed

Uugghh that's a pain in the balls!! I'm sure he'll sort it!

Good stuff, almost finished now. Only 1 and a bit rounds to go

Haha, il throw in a justice4brinty every hour, get it trending

Limpar

Ok, so based on PMs and posts on this thread, the only person who may intend to use their 6th round pick is Realt Dearg.

I'm not going to make a 6th round pick for UnitedIrishman, on an assumption that he may not have used it.....also if he doesn't show up in the next week, I want to limit the amount of players we need to cut on his behalf :eek:

Realt Dearg Sec

Nah I'm grand with that, won't bother picking any more. When it comes time to drop players to make way for draft picks I assume we can just cut draft picks instead of our guys if we so choose?

Absolutely, I'll post details in the morning in relation to the cuts etc.

Hahaha some say we have the same dark deranged sense of humour alright but no, I'm over in London Hob-nobbing it for the horse racing so I gave stevo my picks before I left in case I couldn't get on.

Just being socially responsible!

Guys,

Unless I'm mistaken, the only trade which involved a rookie who had already been selected earlier in the draft was Doogs receiving David Njoku from Stev88.

This leaves each of our draft classes as follows:

UnitedIrishman - Fightin' Irish
Dalvin Cook RB
Juju Smith Schuster WR
D'Onta Foreman RB
Chris Goodwin WR
Patrick Mahomes QB

Doogz27 - Da vegas Crew
Joe Mixon RB 
David Njoku TE  (Trade from Stev88)
Cooper Kupp WR
DeShone Kizer QB
Reuben Foster LB
Malik Hooker S
Tarik Cohen RB

Baby Bull Elephant - Team Mannion
Mike Williams WR
Kareem Hunt RB
Jarrad Davis LB
Adam Shaheen TE
Kenny Golloday WR
Josh Reynolds WR

Brinty - Balreask Cowboys
Christian McCaffrey RB
Leonard Fournette RB 
DeShaun Watson QB
Solomon Thomas DE
Marshon Lattimore CB
Jake Butt TE
Chad Hansen WR
Wayne Gallman RB

Tristram - Pillow Fighters
Corey Davis - WR

Stev88 - Clowney College
Evan Engram TE 
Curtis Samuel WR
Jamaal Williams RB
Taywan Taylor TWR
Desmond King S

Billr67 - Steel City Celtic
Marlon Mack RB
James Connor RB
TJ Watt LB

GerryFed - Vancouver Grizzlies
Samaje Perine RB
Zay Jones WR
Myles Garrett DE
Derek Barnett DE
Jabril Peppers S

Realt Dearg Sec - Terenure Red Stars
John Ross WR
Mitchell Trubisky QB 
Dede Westbrook WR
Carlos Henderson WR
Joe Williams RB

Limpar - North London Gunners
OJ Howard TE 
Alvin Kamara RB
Jamaal Adams S

Two things I need from everyone:
1) Let me know if there are any mistakes in the details above;
2) Can you start clearing out space on your ESPN roster (Hopefully the app works again soon!) and PM me if you don't intend on taking all of your rookies.

gerryfed

Great stuff Limpar, all is good for me anyways. Just realised that Tristam only took 1 guy haha, at 1.01!

@Realt - We've still got a trade pending for Julius Thomas. Once you get a chance to accept that, that'll clear up my 5 spots.

I look at my picks and all I see is 5 hall of famers

Tristram

Well done all on getting through the draft so quickly, and making it so damn interesting and fun with all the trades and banter. Unfortunately hadn't done any research on rookies this year so only picked up the one but will see what happens.

Hopefully we can keep up momentum with all the trades. With that in mind, I seem to be hoarding QBs like there's no tomorrow. If anyone is looking for someone at QB and is interested in any of Russell Wilson, Philip Rivers, or Tyrod Taylor please send me a message. I'm prepared to trade for players or future picks - although probably leaning towards picks.

Tristram

You guys are quick out of the blocks! Already lots to consider!
