Epsilon League Draft

January 02, 2012 at 04:07AM View BBCode

Well, I feel pretty good about how my team did. Though I don't really understand how an Offensive Lineman with C+ run blocking can make it to A- overall. I think I will have a solid team right out the gate and might even compete in a division that has a typically absentee owner (Chris) :).

I'm quite pleased with how we did in Baton Rouge. Despite not having top 3 pick at any spot in the first 3 rounds, we got a lot of our top choices -- mostly young and speedy.

Since the draft was so deep I went mostly for upside. I'm pretty pleased

I did no positional ranking at all and just the most basic adjustment in my "bidding", as a result I never picked higher than 5th .

I'm still pretty pleased with the look of my team, but I have no idea whether we'll be competitive as I have no clue as to the relative strength of the other teams .

Do you feel like it was too deep? This sort of depth is going to become "the new normal" if I go forward with this code.

It's tough to gauge if it's "too deep" until we see numbers, as opposed to letters, and see how the improvement changes affect things .

I have 11 red letter BOVR players in Epsilon and another 11 B+ OVR who are 25 or younger, I had 22 red letter in Delta and have 24 in the BPFL .

I'm not sure I can say whether it was too deep, but one thing I definitely noticed was that there were few if any positions where one or two players stood out as being way ahead of the curve.

As a result, I didn't bid superhigh in any position to go after that one guy. I think in general it's better this way.

In Delta, there were two young QBs worth getting and one was clearly superior. I think I bid 250 at QB and NY outbid me. As you have seen, those QBs have dominated for a decade.
