Your chances in that league are slimmer than Michael Douglas's.

Too far? Too soon?

For a real answer, I think your team is not bad depending on the size of the league. I'd want to get rid of either Brady or Rivers but that's just how I hate to have two good QB's since only one can play.

I'm fairly certain that both of your quarterbacks are gay not that there's anything wrong with that

Since I can't really tell who would be your 2nd round pick I think you overpaid whoever it was.

Since I admitedly don't really pay much attention to College Football I had to look this dude up.

http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/1137461

Here is my scouting report. At 5ft8 165 he is going to get hurt. And he looks stoned in his picture. Oh and he is on the Chiefs. Sky is the limit for him methinks.

No way. I would hope its a 14 team league. Then a Ced Ben in 2nd round sounds better or Brady.

In all seriousness it looks like a 10 team league, unless there are some clueless people drafting on some of the other teams.


You are correct, a 10-team league. I'll find my embarrassing draft order in a moment and return shortly ... which will show I did not draft Dexter initially, but had my head up my ass and (in a later round, thank you) drafted Vincent Jackson. :oops: It was a draft held before the clock ran out on his ability to play the first six games this year, so admittedly it was a gamble, not just a flat-out dumb move.

Very odd and questionable drafting

That's what I thought ... which meant I sort-of had to draft in an almost defensive fashion rather than necessarily taking who seemed reasonable. It was like "when are these people going to pay attention to what's actually going on", and each pick became a dare as to how low I guessed I might be able to get people that had no business being available.

Also, though it obviously has no bearing on this year, I cannot remember a year where I didn't lose my starting QB to injury for a month or more (even the entire season), so between my paranoia and the weirdos drafting, that's why I have two starters. That, and there's always trade potential if someone else has a QB that goes down that has a shitty backup.
