Hah, same but exactly the opposite. Horsed an Indian takeaway into me so I could draft on time.

Missed due to a few last minute emergencies ahead of EP tomorrow, had lots of players added to my queue and got them so still happy overall with it

Found it tricky, had an extensive list but kept getting beat to players, some went way ahead of their average which stumped me.



The 30 seconds is very tricky, would be in favour of 45 at least next season!

Yeah the 45 sec is very quick.

Got the RB (McCaffrey), TE (Ertz) I wanted early, missed the WR I wanted (Diggs) so went for Edelman instead. 

After that, reached for a few young WR's (Kirk, Godwin, Samuel) who hopefully some will work out. 

RB's were a disaster, McKinnon had a relapse of an injury 2 days ago which I missed, Hunt has his 8 week suspension.

Got Big Ben at QB, he was 3rd highest scoring last year so hopefully that continues.

NFL.com gave me a B, and ranked my draft 4th (expecting 9-5 record)

I had all of those WRs on my list! Was going for a similar strategy but didn't work out

I didn't really have a plan as to who I was picking and when the 30 second time started I panicked and went for Patrick Mahomes, really regret not getting one of the top RBs. Loads of good QBs in the later rounds even Ouch

Was wondering! I had pick 9 and 16 and was tempted to take him at 9 and Kelce at 16, definitely would've taken him at 16 if available, whole plan to do that went out the window then

Ezekiel Elliott is apparently in Dallas now on his way to finalise his deal. I have the handcuff but it would be good if he finalised this today and played this weekend.

I certainly wasn't expecting to get one of the top four RBs when I saw I was drafting fifth (Kamara, McCaffrey, Elliott and Barkley, obviously enough).

I was also planning on taking Mahomes in the second round if I got a chance but I see that was never going to be a runner once I was drafting low.

I think that's the first time I ever drafted that close to the middle of the whole thing. It is far trickier in the middle than it is at either end. The double pick you get when you draft first or last is brilliant and even if you are close to it, you can evaluate your choices far, far quicker. Like say you are drafting 11th of 12 in round 3 and you see that the lad in 12th in round 3 and 1st in round 4 already has two running backs, you can easily leave an RB pick well alone and take a QB or WR without worrying that you'll lose the RB you have your eye on. You just can't get away with that when you're in the middle of the pack.

I had 4th pick and wasn't taking Zeke anyway. 

I had Bell last year so basically had no first rounder all season so was avoiding Zeke either way with his contract situation. So no idea who I'd have taken at 4 if McCaffrey was gone, probably Hopkins.
