Why the hate for Austin Ekeler?

Better upgrade to a ps3 cluster!

LOL that's fantastic to imagine visually. Countless hours of setup to harness 8 MB of RAM, not to mention the price tag.

Yes, I am regretting it right now hehehe. However, I am strictly following the cheat sheet that I have created through advanced data analysis and that I have generated through my computing cluster of 1000 Nintendo gameboys. All your base are belong to us.

LOL, last year I read the draft synopsis and yahoo made fun of me for drafting Melvin Gorden a full round before his adp like 8th rnd.

Yahoo's rankings are a joke.





LMFAO!

LOL at Yahoo "grades"...



I didn't get any running backs that I wanted and I we all know that CMC JT alone will score more points than my entire team.

Well you remained calm enough under pressure to resolve the sitch, which I appreciate b/c I would have been pretty bummed otherwise.    So that's good, qualities that make a good commissioner great.


Gotta say, ESPN's draft experience was cleaner this year. I did one with them yesterday, it was just a lot easier to see pertinent info than Yahoo, which was a bit crowded, partly due to that bottom banner ad.

Anyway, the job is done. Feeling pretty decent. Guess I'm gonna be a Buffalo fan this year.

Good luck to all.

Holy shit guys yahoo makes it a fucking nightmare to edit that shit last minute.

I was waiting on all these timer bars with blanked out screens and they just like to hide all the fucking settings all over the place.

I was sweating balls trying to get it done before 7 as I was worried it would cancel our draft time and i remembered you cant set a new time less than a 2 day wait!

I was thinking if it didn't work then we could do a private mock draft and i'd edit all the guys in, glad we didnt have to go that route.

I think they are trying to force everyone into the Y+ package to get easy access now that they have the market cornered.





Well as far as the draft, you guys were on top of your shit!

No less than 5 guys I was going to snipe someone sniped first!

Shit that was fun.

Gotta say I'm open to trades for a decent RB.


I cant believe JT went 2nd !!!!  Someone is seriously going to regret that mistake.


Ohh, here was my cheat sheet.

And these are the guys I'm passing on this year.

Looks like it's set to start 10 minutes after the hour.


I'm now 10th so looking good here

JOIN

Yo WTF

I hope we can start in 7 mins

Yeah, Hueristic must have reset it.  The draft order was all wrong.  I thought I was going first, and I was gonna steal Jonathan Tayler. 

I can't get into the draft anyone else having an issue?

Was just going to bring up the draft order but looks like ya'll are already aware.  See you all in the war room!

I had an issue with script blockers while trying to get the settings correct so that may be what that is, i'm not sure.

If its not what we got from the blockchain lottery then i'll edit it again.



hmm, looks like something got fucked up looking into it right now.

Hmm, that's weird.  morvillz7z established the draft order with a blockchain lotter.  Hueristic knows that, there could have been a mistake or something.

Anyway the draft order should be this:

---

BTW, one member's payment is still pending, he PM'd me and said he'll pay this evening.

---

Less than an hour to go:

I do not know but we also did not vote on having a random draft order. Hueristic might place everything according to our original draft order when everyone has logged in the lobby already.

I know I haven't been keeping up with stuff here but... uhm... are we doing random draft order?

I haven't read up on the deal, but usually these fat contracts only have ~50% of the money guaranteed, and the rest is incentive dependent.  Still, that's a quite a lot of dough, for sure.  I'd be happy with a contract for 1% of that, lol.


That's fine with me.  


Everybody won in that restructuring, in my opinion.  Garoppolo may have taken a $16M pay-cut but he's still on a team, with a "no-trade" clause, which just means he has final say on whether a trade goes through or not.  Taking the pay-cut shows the league's owners that he's willing to negotiate and compromise for the sake of the team.  And ~$7M guaranteed for the year is a damn good deal for a backup.  He also knows he's likely to be offered more if a trade opportunity does present itself, and he will earn more from the 9ers if he ends up having to play.

For the team: they get to start the season with a solid, reliable Ford in the garage while they try out their new Ferrari.  If the Ferrari proves as reliable as the Ford, they'll have a bargaining chip for some future draft picks, and can trade him during the season.

They were way done with him, so much so that they wouldn't even let him see the playbook!

So they are all in on Lance.

I vote yes on no veto with 2 day delay.

On Jimmy Garopollo, it might be, however, another reason might also be the 49ers are not yet very confident with Trey Lance. They need to keep Garopollo for at least 1 more year before saying good bye. I speculate that they will need him to start by week 5 heheheheheheee.
