    Don't laugh. In my first NHL draft about 25 years ago I took a guy who had just racked up a season-ending injury.

      Somebody's bound to auto-draft Teddy Bridgewater tonight. Probably as their starting QB.

        I f-cked up on the interface and took Tebow in the 7th round. Nobody's going to beat that for awful.

          People were still drafting Barry Sanders (on purpose) 3 years after he retired. Just in case.

              Did everyone who participated in the fantasy draft last night receive an email from NFL get told that their draft was an A+ rating? It has to be a gimmick.

                I didn't get an A+. I got an A, and was told I reached in round 8 for a TE.

                  I got a B. Though I also thought the draft was tonight and therefore autodrafted. I'm pretty sure the last time I won a fantasy league I also had to autodraft, so I got that going for me, which is nice.

                    I had to do the auto draft. Got a C- grade. Yay.

                        My "in depth" draft analysis: The NFL didn't like my QB pick and thought my TE/WR strategy was Abby Something.

                        *Laughing in the face of decades of fantasy tradition, Clown's Bottom Dwellers didn't choose a running back in the first three rounds of the draft.
                        *Andy Dalton, taken with the 80th overall pick, has an ADP of 123.0 across all NFL.com leagues. That may have been a bit of a reach in the 7th round.
                        *Keenan Allen figures to get the ball early and often, projected to finish third in the league with 108 touches.

                        YOUR CHANCES TO MAKE THE PLAYOFFS: 83.8%
                        YOUR CHANCES TO MAKE THE CHAMPIONSHIP: 45.8%
                        YOUR CHANCES TO WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP: 23.7%

                          I got an A for my autodraft, I'm not sure I'd agree.

                              Those grades are usually pretty BS, from my experience. They're computer generated from the rankings, and IMO don't take into account all factors.

                              I have several players I personally have rated higher than they do on ESPN/Yahoo/NFL, and others that are highly ranked that I wouldn't draft regardless, due to injury concerns, or other concerns (Arian Foster, Jamaal Charles, Jordan Reed, etc.), so if I were to jump over a few players and "reach" for one of my target guys, the computer would ding me.
