4QBs, 3 RBs. Phew!


Rounds 2 and 3 tonight


The draft was basically very unpredictable, lots of trades, some surprises

[bobby1]

Cheers guys.
not checked all the sites yet, mainly due to odds comparison sites not putting up prices for drafts but Billys go 2/1 for 4 or more QB. Maybe some value in that

Did you have a bit Vegas?

[vegaslover]

sigh, no!

Went round a few sites and couldn't find another price, except betfair which was only 2.3. lots of books didn't have draft markets, one had every position except QB...lol

just never got round to depositing any money on billys, such an amateur!!!

Bugger, it fell perfectly in the end to nick that fourth one didn't it.

Yep
My thinking beforehand was that 3 was a defo and 4 at least 50/50, so the 2/1 representing value.
Another one for the 'paper' profit

NFL Draft on Thursday

Begins with Round 1, live here on ESPN

A final attempt at the first round, ignoring trades

Anything over 8 of 32 in the rightspot is good

    Washington - from St. Louis (2-14) RG3 QB
    Minnesota (3-13) Matt Kalil OL
    Cleveland (4-12) Trent Richardson RB
    Tampa Bay (4-12) Morris Claiborne CB
    St. Louis - from Washington (5-11) Fletcher Cox DT
    Jacksonville (5-11) Justin Blackmon WR
    Miami (6-10) Ryan Tannehill QB
    Carolina (6-10) Luke Kuechly LB
    Buffalo (6-10) Michael Floyd WR
    Kansas City (7-9) David De Castro OG
    Seattle (7-9) Quinton Coples DE
    Arizona (8-8) Riley Reiff OT
    Dallas (8-8) Mark barron S

    San Francisco* (13-3) Coby Fleener TE
    New England* (13-3) Harrison Smith S
    New York Giants* (9-7) Doug Martin RB


The real fun will be trades

Something like Cleveland trading up if Tannehill falls, or Chargers jumping up to get Barron

If you've never watched it live, its great fun. Mostly for the Jets fans in NY Radio City booing an unpopular pick of theirs, or picks selected by their rivals

I got 27 of the 32 names

7 to the right team, only

Tough year this year!

Junior Seau found dead in apparent suicide.

Life is sick sometimes and the scary thing in that report is that there is some intimation that he had some concussion related issues and previous mental issues.
