I'm still scratching my head trying to figure out how Jeremy has the strongest team? ??? Just looking at the teams with no bias.........I can't see a team stronger than mine. My team is solid across the board. Two great Fantasy QB's(Maddox and Brady)and a solid keeper with Harrington. Two top 15 RB's with Deuce and Dillion, plus a 15-20 carry starting RB in Emmitt and possible another starter with Peterson. I beleive Toefield will get some goaline carries because he is bigger than Taylor just as Mack did last year. Then possibly my strongest position RC with 3 star receivers Burress, Holt, and Toomer to go along with some decent #2's Gardner and Wayne. Finally, two solid D's and two solid kickers. Just my opinion of course, but there will be good teams across the league.

Just to let my new fellow competitors know.........I wasnt' really trying to pat myself on the back because in reality I didn't really have a set stradegy in mind when we started this draft, these drafts are always harder because the knowledge of the team owners is way above the calibur of average fans. So in some ways I just reacted to what the other owners did and what players were available when it was my turn to draft. I was pleasantly surprised when I took a moment to look at my team on the roster page, I have a lot of talent and a lot of young players. I think I have layed down a very solid foundation for the future. I am well aware that in a 10 team league, we all will have good teams. It will take good depth and the lack of injuries to win it all! So good luck all!

Guys,  
Lets face it.  We are not going to get this draft completed by Friday.  As was mentioned previously, Steg needs sufficient time to set everything up and also answer any questions.  Since he was nice enough to get this all rolling for us, I think we owe him the decency of giving him enough time to set everything up in the proper fashion.  (I also think we owed him the decency of finishing the draft quicker, but that is water under the bridge now)
 
Here is my proposal:
 
1) We all commit to getting through round 19 by the end of the day Friday Aug 28th.  Everyone should make sure they have a complete starting roster for week one.
 
2) After round 19, we skip ahead to the coaches round and also complete that by Friday evening.  We can all submit a list that ranks the coaches 1 to 10 and Steg (or I will volunteer to do this also) can collect them all and just assign them based on where they pick in the coaches round.
 
3) After the week one games we finish rounds 20 to 22
 
This will allow plenty of time to get ready for the season without a frantic rushing around at the last minute.  The last three picks are most likely guys you don’t plan on starting week one anyway. While this is not a perfect scenario, I think it is fair to all parties involved.

I actually was planning on starting a kicker in week one...
 
 
But, I think that with some effort and commitment of people here, we can finish this thing by tomorrow.  We just need the people who are not on here ALL the time to submit a proxy list (and a deep one at that) to keep this thing moving.  I know I will be out of the office at a meeting this afternoon and won't be able to log in, but I'll have a long proxy list ready.

That's what you get for not sending a proxy list!  
 
If that was to happen to me, my wife would have hunted you down and killed you!  
 
Seriously, if you see your turn coming up, send someone a 4-5 player list. I see some people are on more than others...(hint hint)

Well, I've got a meeting in about 10 minutes and I'll be out of the office all afternoon.  Hopefully the picks will pick up again and we'll get through them.
 
I'm sending my proxy list to Steg and it covers ALL of my remaining picks, including coach (call me an optimist).

Fellas,
 
As long as we have this finished up by Tuesday night, we/I should be just fine.  It would have been optimal to finish it as early as humanly possible, but truth be said finishing it on Tuesday is definitely workable.  Finishing it on Thursday would have been potentially hellish for me,... for everyone.  That's why I blew a bit of a gasket when such was casually intimated.  But, if you guys are done by Tuesday night, then all is basically good.  I would definitely try to finish rather than cut it short.  The complications of forcing it that way may make for more headaches than just finishing it late, unless late ends up meaning Thursday (or even late Wednesday night), in which case we may have to defer to a plan like Gene's.  ALL of THIS having been said, can jimmyc get us some proxy lists if he thinks he is not going to be around much?  Hell, at this point, I can take Jeff and Keith through the rest of the draft as I have complete lists through Round 21 for both of them.  Anyway, just wanted to let you guys know the big picture here from my end/perspective!
 
Later,
Steg

Ray and I take turns logging on at work, (usually we alternate every 1/2 hour because our company does monitor internet usage) and I have a cable modem at home so I am basically up to date at all times except for my 1 hour commute and Tues and Thursday evenings when I go to my son's football practice directly from work.  On those nights I am home by 8:30 and ready to go.
 
Ray and I also give each other picks so there should be no problem with the two of us finishing this thing up.
 
Like Steg said, if you know you will not be available basically all day and night long then please give a proxy list to someone.

Jeremy and Gene,  
 
I know that you are both waiting for Jimmy to pick. If you have to take off, send me your pick, I will be online until 4pm PST.

Guys, Ray and I take turns checking the site during the day.  Our company monitors internet usage so we can't stay logged in all the time.  We check either every hour, half hour or fifteen minutes depending on the speed of the picks.
 
We give each other the next pick if one of us has to go to a meeting.  I wouldn't worry about us slowing down the draft during the day.

I know it sounds petty at this point in the draft, but I like giving it to Steg just because he is an impartial observer.  He has my next 2 rounds though and as soon as my 18.08 pick is made he will have proxy lists for the rest of the draft.
