ATD: Rules - Discussion - Trades Thread

[GKJ]

I think Isaac Bruce is one of my favourite picks of the draft so far.

He is better than Holt, really, imo. Bruce had to suffer with guys like Chris Miller and Tony Banks.

Yeah, when I traded up to take my coach. I was REALLY considering Bruce at that pick. Would've made my WR core, Owens, Bruce, Johnson, Irvin. Would've been fun

At the very least, I'd put them on the same level. It's surprising that Holt went 7 rounds earlier even though he was a good pick, just surprised Bruce slide so far.

That WR corps would've been a wet dream for guys like Don Coryell and Mike Leach.

 

[Tony Romo]

Other than Zack Martin, Isaac Bruce was the best pick in the draft. With no bias in this take at all.

 

[Tony Romo]

@tony d you are up, with @Pestilence being skipped.

 

[Tony Romo]

If anyone hasn’t, I highly recommend watching Derrick Henry’s high school highlights

[VanIslander]

The first 14-man 11-member team.

James, Joiner, Kittle... assumably BENCH... unless you go two TE, three WR, one RB.

I appreciate the depth.

me and kyle got something cooking for offence

 

[Tony Romo]

/i think im gonna push the OTC time back to 6-8 hours.

 

[VanIslander]

Why?

Miss your clock, just make the pick when you can.

Being skipped after 25 rounds is no big deal.
Let's not DRAG THIS OUT too much.

 

[Michael Farkas]

Had Haloti Ngata on my shortlist for a bit now. I like that.

I assume Tony got you, but if not, @Pestilence is up I believe.

 

[Tony Romo]

I was wondering when Trent Williams would get taken. But I had a take, that I didn't know if others would agree but Trent Williams/Tyron Smith should be VERY highly rated all time for LTs. There's maybe a handful if that, I'd take over them.

Both are great but they're not top 5 LT"s of all time.

 

[Michael Farkas]

Definitely considered Rod Smith and Mike Alstott when I took Shofner...

I had a bunch of fullbacks pegged, kept waiting for them to get picked but hadn’t happened yet. There’s like 6 I was willing to take.

 

[DaaaaB's]

There's one RB who I'm pretty shocked is still available especially considering how much of a dual threat he was.

 

[Hasbro]

I had a bunch of fullbacks pegged,

Strange fetish...

 

[Hasbro]

Definitely considered Rod Smith and Mike Alstott when I took Shofner...

Been snooze alarming Rod for at least five rounds. Been reacting to runs at other positions so I'm happy to have him fall.

 

[Tony Romo]

Reminder. after the draft is done, you will have 2 days to write a blurb on your team, as in strategy, scheme etc.

After that. I will need everyone to send me their rankings of the team excluding their own.

So you should be ranking 12 teams.

 

[Holden Caulfield]

Hey how strict are we with the utility spots? Like I just took him as a KR primarily, but he can serve as depth at RB, WR, CB, PR, and S for me. Can I list him in a defensive utility spot and it still count for my offense? We'd have multiple position players before but they were starters that I saw.

The utility spots are mainly for players you want to be strategic with. like a 3rd down pass rusher, a NT if you want to go really large on the line etc. So it's a way to add a bit of your owns strategy/views in it.

 

[GKJ]

Patterson has only returned one punt in his career

Yeah that surprised me, I only noticed that after I made the pick. Oh well, he's still a versatile weapon to have. I have another pick lined up where I'll address punt returns anyways.

 

[GKJ]

Excellent pick on Carmichael. Damn.
