That's the problem with drafting a bunch of guys i never heard of.

Sorry for the slight and congrats on co-winning!
Thanks for the recount, and for running this contest - it is a ton of fun for me. I mostly lurk around here, but this is what gets me posting the past two years. Time to start putting in that offseason work as I strive for a true year 3 breakout!

2 minor things. I believe Suds also had Golden in the 1st round. 7 pts. total. I did not notice until yesterday that Old School actually only used 19 players. It looks to me he listed J. Higgins twice. Congrats to the Co-Champs. A job well done.

Thanks for catching that!

I claim victory if I score as much as Dantes and Tynimiller. Those two really dig deep on all these draft prospects and I'm just a blind folded dart thrower. I take great pleasure in seeing some of our contestants come up with the big donut. I've been down that road at least 3 times.

LOL this exercise is much different approach than having knowledge of prospects. If I hadn't swapped out Savion literally morning of Draft or day prior I'd have done much better. This exercise is a blast and I look forward to this different way of thinking. I'm still shocked as big of a fan as I was for Sorrell I didn't put him down in my guesses...he was a Packer type for sure, but I think I figured we'd look to a guy earlier. Who knows...

2026 prospect list is already building...and I am actually in discussions with a team to potentially do some local ground level scouting as an unpaid intern to possibly build up a name. This would be for a college and only having to worry about a pool of high school targets in my area but we shall see if that goes through.

I know, I switched out John Williams for Dalton Cooper on Thursday in the 7th, smh. Would have had 10 more points

Good news is I had Williams at the #250 pick in another contest, and took home the 1st place prize of an autographed Javon Bullard jersey.

Good Luck!
Thanks man, we will see. The one guy that has tapped me from time to time for Notre Dame player reports and thoughts actually is who forwarded my information to this college...I'm too far along in my main job to do a career shift but man this might be fun to dabble into.
