Only like 50 more picks until it's my turn. Can't wait!
Only 50 - my last pick was 62 picks ago and I still have 27 to go :-/

With the 114th overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, the Oakland Raiders select
Peyton Barber, RB, Auburn.
Barber left to join the NFL after his one year as a major cog in the Auburn offense because he wants to give his mother a home. She is currently suffering from health issues and living with his sister in a crowded house. His production fell off because Auburn lost its starting quarterback in Week 8 and decided to go with a more mobile QB-led offense which took away his touches. I'm taking a guy who is motivated to take care of his family; and as such, failure isn't an option. I'm happy to split carries with Latavius Murray if it means giving me two motivated and strong RBs to take pressure off of Carr.

c'mon lets make it past 200Apparently I have posted 170 times in this thread. That is 4.3% of my total posts. Interesting.
Sorry guys but i was just to sick to continue last night.
Hope you're ok now - let me know if there's anything I can help with.Sorry guys but i was just to sick to continue last night.
Yeh, good thinking @Ramrocket - I think Legatron said he was going to bed and will do his selection in the morning (not sure when his morning is) take some time off the screen @AlanMate, theirs not much you can do at this point anyway. We are waiting for Legatron. Just take it easy and get yourself better.
Yes, Nassib was in my queue when he was picked just like recently when Vannett was nabbed.While we're waiting on the next selection - here's a question for you guys:
Is there ANY player, outside of the R1 thats already been selected, that you were hoping to get, but didn't? I was hoping to have been able to pick up Su'a Cravens, Miles Killebrew, A'shawn Robinson or Carl Nassib in some of the later rounds but you guys just beat me to it
Don't get me wrong I'm really happy with my drat so far
Must be a real killer in the actual draft, you see guys that you think, "yes, he's the guy for us, we'll taking him in the next round, then some other team picks him ahead of you...." I know it's annoyed me on hereYes, Nassib was in my queue when he was picked just like recently when Vannett was nabbed.
It has to be nerve racking. I think that is why you see so much excitement in the war rooms when a team gets their guy. And that is why you see so much secrecy to draft boards. It really is a war.Must be a real killer in the actual draft, you see guys that you think, "yes, he's the guy for us, we'll taking him in the next round, then some other team picks him ahead of you...."

Which is why I had to move back up into the 2nd to grab Kendall Fuller - I just knew one of you guys would steal him away.

Hope your feeling better today! I have a feeling it's going to be a busy one!!Sorry guys but i was just to sick to continue last night.
No change but I can now take more Ibuprophen to bring down my fever so I feel much better. Until it wears off of course. Still, I'm ready.DaveFan'51 inquiring about my health:

" Killebrew was one I came into the draft wanting and NOBODY was going to stop me from getting him, and I did!!:yess::mrburnsevil:While we're waiting on the next selection - here's a question for you guys:
