elegantelliotoffen Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Who will be there? How big is the room? What do they eat? Is there a red phone on the table that rings when someone wants to trade? How bad do you think it smells at the end of the day? Is the bathroom adjacent to the war room or down the hall? Are the watching the draft on ESPN or do they have a different feed? Does anybody know anything??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bizell Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 a bunch of pieces of paper taped to the wall, with old men throwing darts at them. :shrug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 The Bar-B-Qed remains of past draft flops Mike Williams has fed them for the last three drafts and is thought to be enough for three more. This is the war room. The bank of computers keep track of each potential pick and the car is for beer runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dwight Drane Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 95% of the work is done already, so it isn't as crazy as you might think. If the team is lead by confident, decisive people....you just have to trust in your valuations and let many of the chips fall where they may. In reality, only 10 % or so of the picks are traded throughout. I think a case where it gets exciting is when you think you are going to get a giant steal, and not when you chase someone by trading up or taking a guy that you know is early. There is no fun in chasing for an evaluator, but sometimes you just have a pressing need that you can't chance screwing up. There was an article last year about the thoughts of everyone as Edwards kept dropping to them. That is as good as it gets if you have all the slots above a guy empty, and about 15 in a row after him empty with others scattered around. That's when you either make a move, or pray and get that "buzz" as he comes to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROCCEO Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 That picture of the 5 old people definitely is the winner. Hilarious stuff. Also, fantastic rettatta reference, Im glad that people won't let that die. Honestly, who doesn't think noodles and pickle juice are like peas and carrots? Plus, it takes an hour. thats enough time to do a double workout session on the bowflex home gym (according to the commercial). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
