Warrick Dunn and Santana Moss are available for second-round draft picks.

Both could be acquired for a top-8 wide receiver.

Jamal Lewis AND Tatum Bell for your first rounder. Wiggs or Punk

Well given the preseason it's lookin a lot different than 2 months ago or even a week ago. I'll give you that. Mike Bell came outta nowhere. Jamal Lewis is out for the rest of the pre-season and that doesn't help his chances vs Mike Anderson. Time will tell.

Boldwin - these recent developments don't really mean a thing.

in the case of Denver, it always seems to be a RBBC there, so people are afraid to commit. in the case of Lewis, people are concerned that the Lewis of a couple years ago doesn't exist any more.

and btw, Mike Anderson is hurt too. he's not exactly a thread to Lewis.

Denver is always a risk to play the 'wrong' RB for fantasy players...really??? Oh, I did not know that! [He must be an expert, huh?]

Anderson is dinged up...really? You must read rotoworld/rototimes or somethin...wow...you are really scary competition.

don't be mad becaue you overvalued a couple of players, and no one in this league would take that deal.

Wiggs - could you do me a favor and add the first names, positions, and teams to your keeper list?

makes it easier when i'm putting it into Yahoo.

It occurs to me that Stuck in the 60s hasn't posted in any of the 3 threads dedicated to the football league. He's signed up in Yahoo so thats a good sign but has anyone been in touch with him via email?

I think Tree has commissioned a time machine to go back 40 years and fetch him. All he needs is a volunteer to man it.

Anyone out there want to risk getting stuck in 1966? I won't let my sister go, no matter how hard she pleads, because then I know we won't ever see stuck again.

Well, hopefully he responds, but we need to make provisionw for his abscence.

It awfully hard to plan for a draft starting tommorrow not knowing which players are available.

I'd be for the commish (with input) going ahead and selecting his keeper now.

If we haven't heard from him when his first pick comes around, I'd suggest we do what we did when sox wasn't available for the baseball draft this year.

Anyway, something needs to be done if he's not around very soon.

I suppose we could get a few picks in tonight, once Stuck updates his keepers to include D, and a draft grid is confirmed.

We need to reach decision on whether we are using
Yahoo Plus service (see posts 59-61) or not. The opinion has been expressed that if anyone is against it we shouldn't do it.
If we're going to so it we might as well deide quickly since we get some free "expert analysis" from the service.
If we're not going to do it we need to do whether the Waiver Wire Co-ordinator, mbj, is willing to do it again.

Because Toral likes these things...

Magical offensive keeper rankings:

tree
baldwin
pv
toral
stuck
bili
punk
mbj
wiggs
sox
pd
mith

The actual numbers don't really show as much disparity as I thought. I overwieght RBs, as you could probably guess, and that seems to be driving the rankings.

ok - so far, from those who played last year, the following have not signed up:

MITH
Pancho
PD
Toral

if you are planning on playing, please sign up, or let me know you need an invite (and include your email in your post).

if you're not planning on playing - based on his decision to quit baseball mid-stream, i'm not confident Toral is returning to football - it would be helpful if you'd let me know that too so we can find a suitable replacement.

i'd love to get everyone who is planning on playing on board by the end of the ASB.

Toral is in.

PV, have you signed up?

PD, any final thoughts? love to have you back.

MITH? love to have you back as well.

honestly, i figure we're probably about 6 weeks from drafting.

i'd like keepers to be named by Monday, August 20, 11:59 pm eastern time, and for us to be ready to draft Wednesday morning at 9 am eastern, August 22, right after the second week of pre-season games ends.

i've started a thread here, for the 2007 season, but please wrap up this thread by signaling your intent to play, or not play.

thanks!
