Whats happening with Dynasty - is Linux still on the clock or is it me? ::

Technically he's got till midnight but he's still not claimed his team so I'm not expecting him to pick by then.

Give it until 11pm then go ahead and make your pick if you wish.

Im in no rush and happy to wait until tomorrow. Was more concerned that I'd missed a pick and I was on the clock!

You're fine from 0:25am anyway.  Not that I'm next in line after you, or anything!

[LeKnave]

We have made a trade for Linux pick.  Sending him Justin Blackmon in return.

With the next pick in the draft the Absolutely Gash select

Thomas Rawls RB Seattle Seahawks.

I've picked up Rawls and dropped Blackmon for now as I dont think Linux is set up to accept the trade yet and we're running out of time.

Can you send Blackmon over to him please Curtis.  Apologies if that causes you any backtracking to sort.

Sharplea on the clock...

I'm the active manager of his team at the moment and I've not seen any offer come through!  I'd have received a notification if so.

Leaving it as is for now, but it's debatable to me as to whether Blackmon has any trade value, even for a late pick.

I'll wait to see if there's any feedback on this from the other managers tomorrow.  I could do with something from Linux tomorrow to confirm he's ok with this at some point too.

In the meantime, the clock moves onto sharplea.

Apologies, but it's a slightly bizarre trade situation, hence the caution just now.

Didn't send it as we had to drop him to make our pick. 

Can't see how you can say he can't have trade value, he's sat on our roster for over a year in speculation and the Jaguars have denied him an opportunity to play in the CFL.  Obviously a gamble on Linux's behalf just as picking an undrafted rookie running back who's sat 4th on the depth chart is on our part.

Think there's been some indication recently that he's not returning, hence the comment.  Last season he was a 'maybe' but not so sure now.

To be honest it's more a case of getting some indication from Linux that he's ok with it (or just that he's still alive!). Could do with him showing some sign that he's actually going to take over his team sometime soon (if only so I don't get duplications of all the notifications).

I'm happy with that trade, I havent done much research in the matter but i trust jones and Rich that he might be back and am willing to take a punt on it.

Sorry for being afk so much, i just hope jones and rich arent conning me.

Back fully tomorrow.

REDRAFT UPDATE

The new league has been set up on nfl.com, so we now have two leagues named blondepoker NFL A and blondpoker NFL B (imaginative stuff, innit?)

I used a random number generator using odd/even to determine initial spots in the league, so some of you have been removed from league A and invited to join league B.  Ironside - you've been invited to co-manage my team in there (as per my note yesterday I need to be a co-owner of a team to be able to Commish the league, but I won't have any involvement in the management of your team).  Existing managers still allocated to League A don't need to do anything, as your existing team is still active.

For info, the following people should have received an invite into League B in the first wave:
bobby1
ChipRich
Linux
The Camel
sharplea
AdamM
ruud
LeKnave
Nakor

Horneris - you've received an invite to rejoin League A, as you'd already removed yourself from the league accidentally a few days ago.

Will be doing some more stuff with the setup over the course of the day, and at the minute everything is set up as 2x10 player leagues.  I have a couple more invites to send out once I expand the league, so don't worry if you're on the interest list but haven't received an invite for now.  I just want to make sure we have no issues filling 20 teams before trying to get to 24.

For everyone's info, the divisions in each league aren't final yet.  I'll randomise them all when the teams are (largely) populated and will advise on the thread once they are final.

If you receive and invite, please click the button ASAP so I can track progress.

I've not recieved the email yet Sheriff.
