NFBC Message Boards

Ok, I sorta miss my old 'Mock Drafts' from yesteryear.
And I got to thinking, why not have a smaller version here where everybody can participate?

Ok? Here's the deal. We don't own a number, this is to say that you won't have a team, you are simply helping in filling up the draft board. This way, there is no waiting for a certain team to show.
We'll do 10 rounds to start and if we're going strong then, we'll go farther.
You can request a player at any juncture of the draft, But, no more than two players per round.
At the end of the draft, we'll discuss who were the worst picks, the best picks and the picks farthest from adp.
Keep in mind the needs of each team.
Please, no more than two picks a round, although you can pick for any team. And no consecutive picks unless we go an unusual amount of time without a pick.
Make Sense?
Let's roll and see what we find out.

Good job, Pilots!
Who's next?

Alberta Pujols, 1B, ANA

(Soon to be discovered as Miguel Enriquez Esteban, aged 38, Republica de Dominicana)

You would think they would come up with cooler names like Jose Bezbol or Speedy Gonzalez or something like that, right Matthew?
Thanks for the pick and a good one it is...

After coming down from the 4-day high that was the MLBC draft, I'll help ya out in this Slllloooowww one.

Everybody's favorite 30 year old breakout, Jose "Joey Bats" Bautista. 40 HR, 3B eligiblity, potential for .300 AVG.

Right? What other 30 year old has 'upside'?
Thanks Emory....

Tulo-I'm a homey

Thanks Bob.
It's ok to be a homey when the closest team has a good hitting park.

Do you miss us yet Dan? MLBC-DC winding thru round 12 on day 2.

I do, Kevin. Dammit. I have a busy weekend coming up and I'll be darned if I was going to slow you guys down.

You have run two drafts and an faab auction in six days and gone through 42 rounds.
In our 'marcel' slo-draft we are into our 4th week and still in the 46th round.

And I'll take Ellsbury at pick 6

Thanks Russel, I know he's in yours too. Sorry 'bout that. Hang in there.
Your Ellsbury pick is noted. Good luck...

1.7 Adrian Gonzalez, 1B BOS

will anticipate round 2 during a 12 hour stint at the rink

1.8 Robinson Cano

Hardly a surprise, we have six AL'ers and two NL'ers so far...With half of the players coming from the AL East...

I was watching MLB network the other day and they listed the top 10 HR teams from 2011.
I believe all AL East teams made the top 10 of MLB. Crazy.

1.9 Prince Fielder, TX Rangers

1.10 Joey Votto has gotto be out there

Hello Dan, I jump in at pick 11 with Evan Longoria,, staying with the A.L. east theme

Thanks guys.
Pick 12, somebody?
