OK. I'm the dinosaur! I went 1-15. Ended up second pick. I'm stuck in the box. Back in the 60th's being stuck the box meant .... ah never mine children read this. :D

My order is the 2nd one down on the list....I feel pretty much the same as you Perry, in that I would like one of the top 3 players and then if I can't get one of them I like sitting in the middle of each round. I do not like to ever start positional runs, but I don't want to be shut out either, so sitting in the middle allows for that much better than at the ends.

I think Hanley is the pick there, but if you question his shoulder and the negative effects of losing Miggy then Wright to me is just as logical of a choice at 2 as Rollins and Reyes. 30/30 corner infielders who lay down all 5 cats and could get better do not grow on trees.

Mine was 1,5,7,6,13,14,15,4,3,2,8,9,10,11,12



I'm comfortable drafting anywhere so I don't care if its front, middle or end. I do try to project certain players going in the first few rounds and the optimum spot to get those players. Plus I've never had a number one pick in an NFBC draft and wanted to see what it was like .

As far as Wright going number two, no eye opener here. I think really that a case could be made for each of the top eight picks to go as high as number two. Heck, if you're enamored with power or pitching, Howard, Fielder, and Santana could even be included.

I don't want to bump it up, so I'll say thanks here for all the kind words on the profile thread, very nice of y'all.
On my tombstone-
Wait! I never had the perfect draft!

1,2,5,6,4,15,14,13,12,11,10,9,8,7,3



I've liked the middle last few yrs, it's good for not getting locked out of positions, but I like the top 6 for now - and the back-end gives the chance for a high-quality 1-2 punch.

Anyway, should be a wild afternoon of press conferences, that's for sure.

Tomorrow will be the kickoff of the real NFBC mock drafts. Only it's not really a mock. It's little Walla Walla vs the pro's. Go easy guys and gal. :D
