You know the drill.

And we're off!


Please remember that we're going to be lenient with the 24 hour clock. We're in no rush.

I sent Abe a PM. His 24 hours has passed, but we're not going to skip anyone in the 1st round unless someone isn't heard from for a few days.

It's June & the 1st round is the most important round. We're in no rush.

Picked and pmed mattb.

Sorry for the delay. I don't do well in slow drafts when my pick comes on the weekend. I will do better next time.

What are you talking about, that was a horrible pick. He shouldn't have been drafted before the 9th pick

Yeah-ah. 9th pick of the second round

I'm happy getting McClain there. I've never had elite LB's in this league, and all indications are that he's gonna be a stud.

Only one surprise so far IMO (unless me taking McClain at 1.11 was a surprise ). I was surprised to see M.Williams picked so high. What do you like about him water boy?

[onnestabe]

I didn't have McClain that high on my rankings (because my rankings are terrible!), but he was in this tier and I was hoping he would fall to me. Good pick - can't go wrong in a rookie draft with a guy that should be a day-one starter for you (unless he's a kicker).

McClain was probably the other player I was really seriously considering there at that pick but I think that the Raiders moving to a 3-4 this year and that sometimes 3-4 ILBs can be somewhat inconsistent fantasy wise is what ended up moving me away from him and taking Thomas who fell pretty far from where he has normally gone.
