IH Fantasy Football 2013-2014

2nd pick is better IMO. Less pressure

[bagley920]

Yep, Sean is on the clock starting at 12:01 am EST

[seanocono]

Wow. What a surprise to wake up to. I've never had the first pick before. Posting pics of the picks was genius.

Thrilled and honored to kick this thing off, gentleman.

[bagley920]

Wanted to make it as transparent as possible. Announce your pick anytime you want tomorrow and then whoever is next is immediately on the clock. They have 24 hours from the time the previous pick is announced.

[seanocono]

I'm actually really liking the idea of trying a different style of draft this year.

Okay, just to confirm, at 12:01a EST (9:01a PST, for me) I will post my pick in this forum, and then Gav posts, then MClain, and so on?

[bagley920]

Well, I guess technically you would start at 9pm tonight your time since you're 3 hours behind me

Then Gav goes

[seanocono]

And I just post my pick here, right?

[bagley920]

Yep, just give me the name of the player and the team he plays for just in case there are more than one, ie Steve Smith

Just like the real NFL draft. This is your podium. Get up to the mic and speak!

[seanocono]

So stoked! Thank you for all of your work, so far, bagz.

[summ3rhays]

Wahoo middle of the pack. No pressure

[bagley920]

That's actually a good spot. You will be the 6th pick in every round. Never have to wait a long time for your pick

[seanocono]

Gentleman,

It is that time of the year, again.  MLB has become stale, the NBA and NHL are in their respected off-seasons, and nobody gives a shit about the MLS.  The NFL is around the corner, and it can’t get here soon enough.  I would like to express what a tremendous privilege it is to play FFL with my IH brethren; especially a league being orchestrated with such thoughtful precision.  I’d be remiss not to acknowledge the efforts of the Honorable Commissioner Bagley.  Thank you, kind sir.  Without further adieu, I am pleased to commence this anticipated procession:

With the first pick in the 2013-2014 IH FFL Draft, NVRMD DA SQUAWKIN’ selects:

Adrian Peterson – RB -- Minnesota Vikings

Team Smith is now officially on the clock…

[bagley920]

No surprise there (in my best analyst voice)

[bagley920]

Iron Heart 2013 Fantasy Football Draft

Round 1

1-1 NVRMND DA SQUAWKIN' -  Adrian Peterson – RB -- Minnesota Vikings
1-2 Team Smith- On the clock

[Megatron1505]

Arian Foster - RB - Houston Texans

He's making his training camp debut today after his calf injury, and the Texans say he's ready, so…... balls out  ???

[bagley920]

We shall see

McLain, you are on the clock

[mclaincausey]

I get so nervous with RBs, especially small ones, but the potential for Jamaal Charles in Andy Reid's system is just too compelling.

EDIT: Yes that was a pick

[bagley920]

That sounds like a pick to me and a bold one.

Big Z, you are on the clock

Round 1 thus far

1-1 NVRMND DA SQUAWKIN' -  Adrian Peterson – RB -- Minnesota Vikings
1-2 Team Smith - Arian Foster - RB - Houston Texans
1-3 Golgotha RebelsW/aCausey – Jamaal Charles- RB- Kansas City Chiefs

Very strange pick I have been an eagles fan my entire life and Andy Reid has always been a pass 1st coach. He passes almost 70% of the time. IMO very risky pick.

RBs get credit for receiving…  His backs have typically been killers.
