good luck to all. see you in a week. intend to have some beers after the draft. big believer in kds- but 2 years in a row i got my 13th choice. plus 12, 13 were my 1st 2 kds picks and 14 was my 13th. so i came out of the hat 13,14 or 15- probably 14 or 15 AND the 12 and 13 slots were taken. from the kds posting greg has put up- to me it looked like 2% that i get 14 pick- but like any gambler will tell you- that 2% chance does happen. mike diedrich pick 14 league 3

Mike,



Same pick, #14 but in Chicago league 4. Good luck! See ya next sat.

I wanted 9-10 I know, you want my spot haha

At least we aren't in the same league for the main too, though!

Ouch 15th, my last pick in my rankings. Looks like I have some work to do!

so 15 was your last, 14 was my 13th. you pick right after me. i truly truly hope every time down we both like 4 players- then we both will be happy. rounds 5-6 are the ones i worry 13&15 take my guys. see you at the draft. mike

dave- that league looks real tough. they all there- but many cashes in your league.

really? oh well, bring it on.

Mike, I look forward to drafting by you. Just hope we don't go into the draft with the same plan, I've had that happen before it makes for a long day. I hate the 15th pick because you have to wait and pick the leftovers. Really wanted a pick around 5-10 but who knows I might get lucky and get some big names to fall to me. Good luck to everyone in Chicago look forward to next week.



P.S. Anyone want to trade picks?

If we can trade picks, then I am all about it so let me know!
