2014 Real Mock Draft Discussion thread

i haven't looked at the rules in detail - is there a minimum IP?

ETA: nvm - just looked. no min IP. interesting, and kind of explains silentmist's strat (though not entirely - he didn't quite embrace punting W and K, which *would* be an interesting strat).

Nobody objected to this when it was posted yesterday. I've been assuming all along that we're still filling active rosters before picking reserves. Might have picked someone different if I didn't think that.

This is my first year in the draft, and it was stated early on in the draft that was the rule, and I've been running with that rule in my head the entire draft. I can only assume rules mentioned during the draft are correct.

No minimum, but there is a max of 1400.

I'll let Piney address how it came to be different, since he set up the league for this year. 1400 maybe the default, in which case I'll change it to 1500 if I can.

On a related matter, right now I can't enter any more picks onto the Yahoo offline draft tool, as the system is being repaired

There's currently an issue causing the Player List not to load in the Edit Draft Order & Assign Keeper Players tool.

This issue also affects commissioners wanting to enter offline draft results.

It's still broken, but our engineers are working to fix it as quickly as they can.

Thanks for being patient!

I just might have missed that in creating the league. Since I deleted my reminder I went with the settings from last year's league and probably just missed that one. You can change it Weapon1 since your commish.

So are all the current picks valid? And are we sticking with filling the active roster first?

Active roster first. MJL picked Navarro instead of Gose.

DJ timed out, and Bucky went on the clock at 2:17.

damn - was hoping against hope martinez would drop to me. curse you, bucky. /shakesfist

[Hornsby]

I thought that Martinez was picked quite a while ago...is that not the case?

[Weapon1]

Nope, he was available.

Who is Hammer's 2nd RP?

Doesn't have one, needs to drop Leake and pick one up.

I guess between this comment and Hornsby's comment I made a good pick. That's a hard thing to do in round 22.
