Benji Benjacobson Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 #1 and #2 would both be available.....BUT....... if you're gonna bring it....bring it BIG! Cruz (Giants) for your #2 pick Deal....Victor Cruz for #2 overall rookie pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drake Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Wow that was exactly what Benji needed. Hes gonna have a really strong QB (Rodgers) and 3 really strong RBs after he selects Richardson (Forte, Charles) so he was in a tough spot with that 2nd pick needing a WR but none in the draft going that high. Cruz was great value for that. Benji finished 9-4 last year and hes having a beast off season... watch out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ISuckTDs Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 (edited) I had 2 WRs on the same team with Nicks. That bothered me, but not anymore. I really like what's available at the top for the rookie draft this season, so I think this was a fair trade. Sorry fontaine Edited August 9, 2012 by ISuckTDs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drake Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Its basically Cruz for Doug Martin (assuming). Solid trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISuckTDs Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Trent or Doug, I'm happy either way. ANYTHING's better than the Clusterjob going on in Washington. Shanahannigans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsguy21792 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 All right, Victor Cruz to Benji and the #2 pick goes to ISuckTDs. I will remember to make a note of that when I enter rosters in this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISuckTDs Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Drake - Reggie Bush and #3 for Ryan Mathews Oh you're goin for the gold. Little too steep for me I'll have to pass. That Mathews trade is looking mighty sweet now, huh? Before this workhorse can explode for a gazillion yards, he has to hold up after one carry. Geez!

ISuckTDs Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Yeah, hes more fragile then a glass window When you rolled down the window for the first time, it didn't shatter into little pieces Okay I'm being mean.

Drake Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Yea thats too bad. This is why they shouldn't play their stars in pre season! Oh well, he should only miss 2-3 games. So I'm thinking it's time to call in the replacements? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsguy21792 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I have 2 replacements already lined up and they have told me what teams they want. I will go ahead and post the remaining team in the league finder service and come up with our last replacement from there. If anybody has another person in mind they would like me to contact about the last team, let me know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsguy21792 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) Just to update, I received a PM from another guy who is in a couple leagues with me expressing interest in the last remaining team. If he wants the team, I told him he could have it and then we would be all set and ready to start things on Monday. If all 3 of the guys I have talked to accept a team, I will go ahead and formally introduce them on here when they sign up for the yahoo league.

sportsguy21792 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 All right everybody, each of the 3 guys I talked to have taken open spots in the league. Please help me in welcoming the following guys to the league! Robrain (replacing Long Island Iced Ts) KTOWNRACER (replacing Fort Dick Woodies) Finally Detroit Wins (replacing The Dagos) I am in leagues with each of these guys, and I know they will be active participants in our league. I have finalized the team list and will enter rosters into yahoo either tonight or tomorrow, and we can start everything up on Monday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drake Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Last year we set a time and date for when everyone could dive in at Free Agents (obviously after the single round FA draft). So are rosters just gonna be locked from Adds until that date? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsguy21792 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I will probably set a date that everybody can add players after our drafts, but I'm not sure if I will lock rosters or just trust that nobody will add players before that date. I'll decide before that time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsguy21792 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) Rosters are entered and the waiver priority has been set to what it was at the end of last year. Some teams have open roster spots, here's a list of those teams. TDs 'N Beer (fontaine) - 3 open spots (McNabb, Cadillac, and Seymour not in yahoo) Ink Inc. (bILLy 1nk) - 1 open spot (Shockey not in yahoo) Pack Attack (sportsguy21792) - 3 open spots (Williams, Dawkins, and Smith not in yahoo) The Lucky Ducks (duckman) - 1 open spot (Chris Johnson (the Oakland CB) not in yahoo) Soulcrusher (Benji Benjacobsen) - no open spots (listed here because LT is not in yahoo, but the open spot was taken due to the Cruz trade) Bilbo Baggin Ballers (ISuckTDs) - 1 open spot (open due to Cruz trade) Harbaugh Warriors (sfdevil) - 1 open spot (Maurice Morris not in yahoo) Kyzer (Drake) - 1 open spot (Ryan Torain not in yahoo) Abusement Park (Longhorn143) - 1 open spot (Dareus not in yahoo) Motorcity Monsters (Finally Detroit Wins) - 1 open spot (Marion Barber not in yahoo) KTOWNRACER (KTOWNRACER) - 1 open spot (Cullen Jenkins not in yahoo) Just keep this in mind when drafting. Everybody add their players as they draft them, and if there's anybody on this list who wants to keep any of their players currently not on their roster, just drop somebody else when making the move.

sportsguy21792 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 The draft will start at Noon ET on Monday afternoon with our 3 round rookie draft. A one round free agent draft will follow, and then any other free agents will be available to be picked up 2 days after the free agent draft ends. I am open to starting the draft earlier than Monday if people are interested in that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drake Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Good job man! Lets get the draft started tomorrow? If someone is unaware the draft started early than just give them that extra time but we can get a head start. WE SAVED THE LEAGUE FROM THE DIRT! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsguy21792 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 I'll send out a league wide message via yahoo and see if everybody can agree to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fata13xception Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Because it's a forum-run slow draft, I would not have a problem with it either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsguy21792 Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 At this point, I am willing to start things tomorrow, I just have to make sure everybody knows about it. I'll suspend official judgement on the draft start until I get back on tomorrow morning. If it seems like the majority of people want to start tomorrow, then we'll start tomorrow.
