    I don't know how much of a reach it really is. I think there is a definite drop off at the RB position after Lynch & no way he gets by GB at 16. So maybe it is a bit of a reach but I like him alot at a position of great need for the Bills & there wasn't another guy at that spot that I had to have.

    I understand your point.....not being able to trade is what makes people reach or not trade down. Lynch in my mind is a mid teen pick, but RB is a need for Buffalo.

    Great pick Hasty....Willis is a perfect fit for the Rams.

    do you guys think Quinn at 3 over Russell was a good idea?

    Yes, absolutely yes. Now do I think picking Quinn at 3 over Peterson was a good move, I'm not so sure about that one.

    What's interesting is that in our draft, Peterson fell all the way to the 49ers. And IMO there is no way the 9ers ever select Peterson with that pick so if this draft is somewhat legit, Peterson could become a Buffalo Bill.

    yea i was hurting myself debating which route to go in this draft, now i have to go with my other plan for their draft, not so different, just a few detours, i should still end up with who I initially wanted...

    are we going to sticky this until the end of 07 to see who had the best mock?

    I don't see how Peterson falls out of the Top 5.

    Not to bash anybody, but the 49ers pick was bad. They have a rising star in Frank Gore who just finished Top 3 in rushing yards. They also have another potential RB in Michael Robinson...

    *****EDITED*******
    Oh well, I guess they have a hell of a backfield...

    Problem the player you suggest was not the BPA # 11...AP was..by a mile...that what BPA stands for....and I took him. You guys draft the way you see fit, I'm happy with my selection.

    If Rhodes 25 isn't here by Midnight...Lets' stop the clock and give him till noon, if that's Okay. That will Jason Jets time to draft his player at 3:00....if that's Ok with you guys.

    Well done today guys, made a ton of progress. Sorry for dropping the Minnesota pick on you PA, I had to leave and you were the name I saw online, thanks for making that pick.

    And Penny, for missing your pick with Minnesota that makes your next choice up for grabs, if I were you I'd send a list beforehand just to ensure you keep your teams.

    Don't forget to PM the next GMs in line guys.

    Yeah, and guys, you can't list off all these players not taken yet in this thread, it's just not done. Speak in hypotheticals, we all know who you're talking about anyway.

    It'll be up there for as long as the mods leave it alone, chances are it'll get pruned eventually.

    And I'm with WW on the idea of giving Rhodes 25 until noon tomorrow to make his choice.

    Thanks!

    If you guys let Peterson drop two more spots I would have teken him though. The value was just too good to pass up. That being said I am glad that I could take Willis to help the Rams on D without haveing to pass up a guy like Peterson.
