The excitement is building to see who Juan will take with the 189th pick

In the NFL draft that player would be known as Mr. Irrelevant. I don't know if they still do this, but at one time someone held an Irrelevant Day and presented the last player drafted with the Lowsman Trophy.

As far as I'm concerned, Aaron Miles can be Mr. Irrelevant.

Doesn't look like you actually picked him up on Roadkill.

 

Alamo Stealth is up, Northside Baseball on deck, and Harrys Budcrew in the hole.

I pick Dustin McGowan, hoping for some contribution later in the year.

 

It's now down to Lynx for the final pick.

I've been out of this draft for a week!

 

Consider it done!

 

Let's set a roster legalization date of March 31. Remember though, that you cannot make trades until you legalize your roster.

Juan,

 

I was fiddling around to see what it would take to fill in the draft info for 2009. It looks like I have that capability, but there's one button I'm afraid to click on before I begin this rather big project.

 

It looks like a few of the guys were picked by the draft, as I can't do anything with the first 8 picks without resetting the draft. I don't want to be the guy who pushes that button. You do that part and when the information is clear for the first 8 picks, I'll start the process.

 

I don't want to click that button in case it takes players off their respective teams and whatnot.
