People will think my one was a stupid pick, especially as he was #5 on my list.

But a 19 year old gunner with 50 Speed and 30 Tackling gives me options with him depending on how high his strength comes in at. Btw Youth Academy give me a 50 Int 50 TW Natural Leader QB the other week.


I had your guy just one or two spots after mine so not that bad

And actually your YA Guy is inredible if he would be 2 years younger. Will consume a lot of Points to check on the caps...


Forgot to mention YA QB strength in the 40's no caps yet.

Extremely happy with the QB that we landed with the pick #28 after our 2 options (LBs) were gone before.

Reid Hobson, 21 years, 5 talent, 2 experience.
Strength 49.5 (hard cap)
Speed 42.7 (Soft cap)
Agility 32.5
TW 39.4
Intelligence 50
Passing 26.9
Vision 25.4

A little bit old and the skills a bit low, but I think his physicals, Intelligence and TW make up for it, I expect him to be our starter this year and put some order in our passing game which struggled in the play-offs in 2.1 last year with 2 bad QBs at the reins.

I have now 18 players for the 2nd Round ready for tonight, I hope I can get one of the Top ones.

Rather concerned for my draft next 2 rounds. Picking at 22 and point 6 or so options left its not looking good.

Went a bit unorthodox with my last pick of the draft. Drafted a Kicker with 50 strength and 31 kicking. My previous 3rd round pick from last year wasn't something special but at least this kid got promise!

My current kicker is retiring and now i've got his replacement!

And yes, he was on top off my board for the third round.

Not that bad for a third round Pick.
I tried to Draft Kicker or Punter too a few seasons ago but it never happened and so I'm now building always via YA...

Three WR for me, to project over time to become TE in a few seasons for me. Overall am happy with my haul given position at the wrong end of the draft!

First pick could be a DE or OLB not sure which is more needed.
Second pick bit of a bust, currently at OLB may transfer to CB.
Third pick Mr Irrelevant from 2:1 is an unimpressive WR.
Happy with first pick, not surprised by other two, picking last from below average draft.

Wasn't a great draft tbh. Rounds 1 + 2 I done fine. Had limited options (6-8) in 2nd round and 3 left of them in the 3rd. Decent stats if his 38 strength hadn't been red capped. I feel like a partly for lucky.
