We have so many teams with multiple picks in the first round. Its crazy

He had some high picks and, man, did Bandit make them pay-off. .....

I really don't know how you do it...


well, I know my trade with bandit, I messed up... Not that it wasn't a good trade... but I should have kept Henry... Normally when I make trades I recognize that the buyer wants a certain player, and will pay... But losing Henry doesn't exactly hurt me... and now Henry is very expendable to Bandit...

Well if I had known that Foot was going to offer us Gronk for the 1.8 I wouldn't have gone after Henry. LOL.

very true... Just saying, that it was a mistake of mine to trade him... as I don't think I had to... and even if I did, I should have negotiated better...LOL... its what I get though...

again, I think it was a fair trade... but I should have WON the trade...

I actually think you crushed the deal with Bandit. IMHO, he over payed, at least a little bit. But that's just my opinion on a guy who couldn't keep Austin Ekler on the bench. So, well done there. Obviously the long term winner will depend on how your picks pan out, but today, well done.

Well the guy that couldn't keep Austin Ekeler on the bench scored in double digit fantasy points in 13 of 17 weeks and finished 5th in running back scoring last year, so I think I'm okay with those numbers. Imagine if he had kept Austin Ekeler on the bench!

Yeah I know, I just keep looking at this sub 4 yoc, and thinking, sooner or later he's not going to get 10+ TDs , I don't like him. But that's just me, understand why others do

I'm not a fan of the sub 4 yards per carry either. I guess it came to knowing what you are getting as opposed to hoping what you are getting with the 2nd and 4th picks. Hey I could have guessed right and both of those picks could have turned into starters on my team for the next 5-7 years, but on the other hand, both of those picks could end up being guys that just never really ever get the job outright and they have to battle to get 10 touches a game for the next three years rendering them fantasy irrelevant, and I'll have to find a way to try and not drop them with these small rosters, and it will drive me crazy. That's the gamble I just wasn't willing to take this year. Of course I probably would have reworked the deal completely if I had known that Foot was going to trade me Gronk for Mike Gesicki :)

Hey just curious. If you havnt heard yes I traded gronk to the bandit. So I could pick Mike gesicki at eight. I'm curious cause I have another rookie draft coming up and was wondering had I not taken gesicki at 8 who would have taken him and where. Any help would be greatly appreciated

In a non-ppr league I think he easily makes it to the mid teens

I think Dallas Goedert is a better TE prospect, taking Gesiki in the first is chasing combine numbers..just mho

We had a trade with Steeler contingent on our guy making it to us, Gesicki. We would have picked him at 2.1 but he was gone so the trade disolved.
