Is this a joke?

I agree there are a lot of good players remaining, but the negatives such as career decline, injury history, regression likelihood, etc., are piling up, as should be expected. All part of the game.

bigmahon, it's basically just rburgh agreeing to change drafting positions for the first two rounds....but he already took Machado.

not a bad offer if you like Machado and feel a big drop-off has occurred. interesting.....

It's not. rburgh doesn't have the 30th pick overall, so can only assume he means his round 30 pick. Unless I missed a trade and the pick list hasn't been updated...

ahhhh, I see. I didn't even register the 30. good point. I wonder if that is what he meant though? Machado and his 44th overall pick? my mistake....

played in my first 24 team league last year ]

it is a different game than the 12 game league...
imo it is more realistic
I played in a 6 team league and it was luck of HAL as all rosters were stacked...

I have the 42nd pick a mere 28 slots away....
willing to trade up
swap picks in a couple of rounds and throw in a prospect pick....

I've been trying to do that all day....just no takers. good luck, basically been saying the same thing. course it is middle of the day, people may not have time to look at dealing right now.

I am in a twelve team keeper league ,we are in our seventh or so year, My roster in that league contains six of the fifteen players we have drafted today. This league will be a horse of a different color.

that's a nice to you have in that league then Willmur....very impressive.
