Masked Fan Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 That's a good sleeper pick, MF. I like. I think LT will revive his careeer this year. I hope so. Screw ESPN and all the other "professionals" who say not to waste a pick on him. It is San DiegO after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devilsrule33 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Earlier than I expected LT to go. Was definitely looking to pick him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRASHER Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 The issue with LT is he soon may not be the #1 back on the team and he's ALWAYS hurt by season's end... lot of miles on those tires.... a lot of why I dropped down this year... none of the top guys really feel like "locks" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I traded down for the same reason. I don't think the number 1 pick is as dominate as LT or Faulk, and picks 2-9 are pretty much a crap shoot.

NJDevs4978 Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 (edited) Well I think picking our own draft order worked out this year inasmuch as those of us who aren't treating top five picks like we have to fit them in under the salary cap traded up to get them or just stayed put, whereas those who wanted to go down did. I wouldn't have bothered with LT until later in the first round only because I think he's one injury away from breakdown but there's a definite high upside too and a lot of these early picks are going to be based on personal preference anyway.

UnderDogX Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Well, with the first pick of the new season Smirking Revenge plays it semi-safe and picks Maurice Jones Drew from JAX.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devilsrule33 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Willing to drop down a few spots in the first round if I can move up that same distance in the 2nd and 4th round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aylbert Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Willing to drop down a few spots in the first round if I can move up that same distance in the 2nd and 4th round. I'm not sure how much interest there would be from those remaining in the 1st to want to move up in the 1st for the 2/4 swap. Then again, Im in talks currently to move out of the 1st completely... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devilsrule33 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 No one has responded...so I'll make my pick. I really didn't know where to go with this pick, and as much as I love DeAngelo Williams, I wasn't sure about drafting a player on my favourite team. But I watched him do his stuff last year...and then I saw him do this last night... http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-cant-miss-plays/09000d5d81213abd/Pre-WK-2-Can-t-Miss-Play-Williams-way So with the 6th pick...Faith in Jake takes RB DeAngelo Williams.

CRASHER Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 MantaRavens select: RB, Steve Slaton, Texas WOW I kinda figured he was gonna be there when I went, can't say I blame him on the pick... but a shock he goes that high..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aylbert Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 The Sworn D are pleased to select their target from the start of the draft, from the St. Louis Rams, running back Steven Jackson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aylbert Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 WOW I kinda figured he was gonna be there when I went, can't say I blame him on the pick... but a shock he goes that high..... Agreed. I like the pick, and I think it will look smart at the end of the season. I was hoping (although wasn't expecting) he'd drop to me in the 2nd as his yahoo ADP was 19. Instead, I didn't even have a chance on him, so I feel much better about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
