Do you mean this guy??

 

Yeah, he's terrible. I think shitty offensive line play has been the biggest issue.

As for Big Ben, I think having a top running back in his backfield has done wonders for him.

 

You just got our Guard.  Ask Kaep how much he liked running for his life the second he got the ball last year...  Palmer can't move...   o/u just went down to 5.5

Assuming Palmer starts the season healthy, are you willing to bet your best player on that?

 

Nope...  I talk a good game, and when I'm right, I remind you about it so you don't remember when I was wrong.

What's your take on Bradford?

 

Real life QB or Fantasy?

 

RL:  He has failed to show that he can stay healty, but how do you classify "350lbs lineman keep rolling up on his knees" as a defect.  He was a spread guy at Oklahoma and I think he will be "Foles" like with Chip running the show.

I really like him as a prospect

Fantasy:  I'm not telling you before the draft!!  (but I do have my eye on him.)  This is what Matthew Berry says about it:  

 

21. Since Chip Kelly took over in 2013, Eagles quarterbacks have combined to score 594 fantasy points (18.6 per game).

22. During that span, the only quarterbacks with more fantasy points than "Eagles QB" are Peyton Manning, Drew Brees and Andrew Luck.

23. Sam Bradford is also going outside the top 15 at quarterback. Mark Sanchezisn't being drafted.

with that said...  lots of QB's being drafted outside the top 10 that could have a lot of value...  Bradford, Palmer, Kaep.  Tannehill, flacco, Rivers and bridgewater.  Brady is too, but when the NFL can't uphold to slanderous suspension, he'll be back in the top 8 again.

So, this year, I'd like everyone to name their team a funny pun based on their favorite NFL team.

 

If you don't have a team, pick one. Let's see who can come up with the best one.

I'm in for this!

We'll miss you bro, you were fun to play against.

The online draft is snake draft (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 then 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1, repeat)  Last year we had 14, but 10 is a good average number for leagues.  Online drafts usually take 60-90 minutes and the date isn't set yet for this league.  but if you can't make it, you can be auto drafted.  Just make sure you go in and adjust your ranking prior to draft so you aren't stuck with all the over valued players.  

 

I suggest you do some mock drafts so you know what to expect.

That time works for me except for Fridays and Saturdays, as we typically have social plans.

6pm Pac time is good for me, just not the 3rd.  But it doesn't matter, I autodrafted last year with my rankings based on 10 teams...  and still won.
