Saldana doesn't have a team in the league, so I'm fine with it.

Hot tip: Michael Vick and Koren Robinson aren't taken yet. I'm not sure about Keyshawn Johnson though. Someone asked about him, so he may be gone.

I was happy to land Jerious Norwood in the 4th round. Depending on Dunn's status... he could have a monster year.

Yeah, if I didn't need another WR, I would have taken Norwood. Of course, I took a huge gamble instead..

The pace is starting to pick up a little now.

I had been thinking about Norwood, too, except that he would've given me a third back with week 8 bye. We're ok with Tatum Bell, though. I'm actually a lot happier about getting Bernard Berrian as my number 3 WR. I thought for sure he'd be gone by now.

Sorry about the delay earlier today, guys. For those in the room who heard, I was in the room for about 3 hours but couldn't pick since I had the delightful task of taking apart a printer multiple times trying to fix it.

That JP Losman pick really killed me. I planned on platooning him with Vince Young. I think he's in for a monster of a year. We'll see though.

Biting Muchars still on the clock

I've gotta head in early today but I should be able to check somewhat throughout the day.

However, I have an exciting trip to Nevada (pronounced "Nah-vay-dah" by silly Missourians who mispronounce everything) starting late morning and internet access during that part of the day might be a bit sketchy. [map]

Is sportsline down or something? I can't even load up the home page and none of my bookmarks that always work for them, are working now. Every other site is just fine and dandy.

Man, I'm having a crappy draft. I juuuuust (should have before it) read the reports on Reggie Williams at camp and realize I made a wasted pick. Wonderful.

I think it's 13 since that would be 16 with the 3 keepers.

Cajuns are up

Please be patient with me today. I don't have time to put up a queue with 9 people, I'll be on the road to Hartford, CT and then flying back to MN, probably make my picks around 4-5pm CST. Sorry for the delay.

Ok, so, I think we need to reduce the bench spots next year (if possible). Cut out two or three spots?

After the draft, I'll put a few issues up for vote for the 2008 season. Smaller rosters will be one of them. I like the idea of playing a second QB, so that will probably be included. If anyone has any other ideas... post then and we will vote on them.

Sorry if I caused any delay guys, I ended up staying in Vegas twice as long as I originally planned and that complicated a few things for me.

Smaller rosters, check (reduce by 3 maybe?). 2 QB's, not so high on considering there are 12 teams in the league. 4th keeper for a rookie seems cool by me.
