    Hasty, does some arbitrary score from artificial intelligence really matter that much to you? C'mon man
    It's a weak algorithm - and you're letting it upset you. You are a human being with the ability to reason and
    you know the jets better than some poorly maintained algorithm. Do your draft, trust your instincts, and
    totally disregard the points, the score. Make the switch, and use a smart app. draftwired. dw does give you a
    letter grade, but it means nothing to me. I like the way that app gives you a full arsenal of strategy tools, so you
    can actually know a lot about the other teams and their needs as you go. Once you start getting familiar with
    the superb tools/queries in draftwired you will laugh at firstpick and fanspeak

    While it is just a game I was setting high scores the last couple years. This year it seems to have become much more difficult.

    I did try draftwired but it only let me draft the first three rounds. It made trades much more difficult to make for my benefit. I will stick with this one.

    Also, it is a long off-season, may as well enjoy the distraction.

    My very first try this year. I went for real live value picks (and not for points in the game): Imagine a draft with Myles Garrett, Mitch Trubisky, Alvin Kamara, Tyrone Crowder AND Jake Butt! Offense would be instantly fixed and Myles Garrett would flourish in his role as EDGE... Never gonna happen in real life; but that's the fun of this game.

    Your Picks:
    Round 1 Pick 8 (CAR): Myles Garrett, DE/OLB, Texas A&M (A+)

    Round 3 Pick 14 (BALT): Tyrone Crowder, OG, Clemson (A)
    Round 3 Pick 28 (DAL): Alvin Kamara, RB, Tennessee (A)
    Round 5 Pick 6: Jake Butt, TE, Michigan (A)
    Round 6 Pick 7: Bryan Cox, DE, Florida (B-)
    Round 7 Pick 6: Amba Etta-Tawo, WR, Syracuse (B)
