Also @wwhickok, my critiques for all this stuff is in good nature. I think these rankings are difficult to do and we’re always adding subtracting talent. So I never feel offended by the rankings and I’ll occasionally comment when it makes sense to do so.

I dont mind the critiques at all.

You fit in 2.1 you might as well go 2.2 as well... 

2.2 Charles Cross - Best pure LT prospect in the draft and would be a great heir to Matthews.

1.1   Cancun – Kayvon Thibodeaux – Let’s take @Blue and @MWil23 at their word and believe that they've had their guy for months.  Kayvon is the most likely player to fit this criteria.
1.2   Anchorage – Travon Walker - @Scoundrel sprints this pick up and cuddles a picture of Travon through his happy tears.
1.3   Gotham – Sauce Gardner – @Whicker gets the best CB in the draft and a great prospect to lock down bigger WRs.
1.4   Antarctica – Derek Stingley – @Pickle Rick learns from his mistakes a la fixing his OL last year.  This year, he fixes his secondary with the guy who has the best tape of anyone in this draft.  Stingley looked good at his pro day.
1.5   Rome – Aidan Hutchinson – @bcb1213 goes BPA which happens to fill a need.
1.6   Anchorage – Kyle Hamilton - Scoundrel's crying turns into full-fledged weeping as he lands Hamilton too.
1.7   Anchorage – Ikem Ekwonu – Anchorage gets his pick of OL and goes with the guy who has the most positional flexibility.  But he barely gets the pick in as he can't write through his tears.
1.8   Cuba – Jordan Davis - @MD4L has his edge guys set, but he needs a force in the middle to free them up.
1.9   Anchorage –  Garrett Wilson - Cooks is on a one year deal and Wilson keeps their WR room loaded.
1.10 Berlin – Evan Neal - BPA by far(I wouldn't be surprised to see someone trade up with Scoundrel for him) and I need a new LG.
1.11  Raleigh – George Karlaftis - @EaglesPeteC could use another edge rusher and I'm a big fan, especially after that pro day.
1.12 Seoul – Drake London - @RedGold needs a #1 desperately, but we will see how London looks at his Pro Day.
1.13 Camden – Jermaine Johnson - @Jlash will need to reload his edge group after this year and Jermaine can contribute immediately.
1.14 Camden – Andrew Booth – After moving Ward, they could use another #1 outside CB.
1.15 Seoul – Jameson Williams – Bateman, London, and Jameson would be a great trio to move forward with.
1.16 Berlin – Trent McDuffie - Short arms, but he's a more athletic Byron for the slot.
2.1 Lancaster - Treylon Burks - @rackcs gets his guy.

I could live with this

All I have to say is shame on @Jlash for participating in this league's toxic "stats are all that matter" mindset

Kyle Juszczyk is more than just a fullback or even a running back, he is an offensive weapon that doesn't get the respect he deserves

Was wondering where Neal was gonna end up. Not too upset with landing in TB.

I have no idea why, but in my mind, you are tall with dark hair and in a state that involves a constant maniacal wry smile and constant incredulity having to bask in the ineptitude of humanity, which you make a game out of as opposed to dealing with it. 

Tbh, it’s somewhere between these:

But blonde hair.

Yeah, exactly.  But only for gym bodies.

He did have a wild crush on a dude who was pretending to be a chick on WF for years. 

[SwAg]

I confirm that as well.

[Blue]

To be fair, the chick was hot
