re: RMD 2011 - In the Books!

Dillon O'Carroll OC

I've had my last pick ready for a week since I knew no one would take him He did tear it up at the combine last year but I guess it didn't translate into a ton of offers... He'll be at Brown in the fall and I'm thinking he's a 3-4 year starter in the Ivy league so amybe I can get some points there.

Dan don't forget you can text me anytime and I'll get you a pick within minutes

ok Shane Mertz, OT
and the first pick of the supplemental round is Kendal Thompson, QB Oklahoma. Thanks guys.

POST ON DEE HART


Since TIGER PHANATICK is bugging the shite out of me via text about Dee Hart, I'm throwing this to the thread.

There's really no fair way to dole out Hart. It sucks that he's in la la land. It sucks that out of 25 people, 1 dude bailed and after only one round, so it's literally just one dude sitting out there. It sucks that TPhan was going to pick Hart in the 2nd and could have, except the drop out showed up just a couple hours before hand. I'm in agreeance with TPHan on all these points.

The issue is that it gets murky trying to either do an addition or replacement. Since he took Hilliard, every draft board from pick 37 on was theoretically altered (sans maybe ItsThatDude12, who had Malcolm Brown). Hilliard was certainly a commodity, particularly on an LSU board. It works positionally to throw back Hilliard for TPhan to pick up Hart, but then you can't just go down and ask each Poster, "Do you want Hilliard, if so, throw back your pick from that round" because for the sake of position organization, let's say it plays out like this:

Pasty: "Holy white tits! Yes, I want Hilliard. I'll throw back Steve Edmond for him and toss in a free donkey punch to anyone who is willing."

OBU: "Okay, So now Edmond is available, but wait now Pasty has two running backs (wouldn't be the first time he's double teamed :rimshot:), so I guess that doesn't work."

Pasty: "Aw shucks."

OBU: "Okay, so let's do it this way, we'll go down the line of RB picks, by round and if you want Hilliard you throw back your RB pick in chronological order."

Hand passes, cause he wuvs Savon Huggins sooooo much.

OIT passes, because Kenny Hilliard didn't go to Iowa, so why the hell would he want him?

SunTiger passes, but does it 6 days later and claims he's with in-laws/at a convention/coming off a drug binge/had the internet go down.

JG911 passes cause he's too busy bemoaning his Mike Blakely pick while touting every other one of his choices as future All-Americans.

Dro is next, but since Quan Bray is actually his QB and not his RB, he wants nothing to do with Kenny Hilliard since Hilliard reportedly reads at a 2nd grade level :rimshot: and Dro is concerned he won't pick up his complicated playbook.

So now we're balls deep into the 6th round and Reno 102362 is working the late shift and whilst barely keeping his eyes open realizes that somehow, Kenny Hilliard, a top 100 LSU recruit has slipped past the fences and since his running back is named after a floating apparatus designed to let people know that deep shite passeth beyondeth this point (Andrew Buie), he's like "Holy Abadeebadaba, Dolemite, you guys fricked up major. Hilliard is mine!"

And then jembeurt gets out of one of his 1 p.m. reach arounds/meetings and he's all: "Dubbya tee eff guyz? I had Hilliard graded as a 14.2 9 star, and I would have taken him with my first pick if that QB from Valdosta State wasn't there. That's not fair!"

So then, BayouCatFan and and GulfCoastBiased chime in giving reasonable opinions of the relative unfairness of a player of Hilliard's caliber being drafted so late. All the while, Fonz2011 was too drunk to notice any of this happened.

Yetty shows up, spouts a few rap lines, high fives Shea Dixon and peaces out, just cool as hell all along.

jc77 tries to draft his son, which I'm certain is a recruiting violation, even in a fantasy high school/college mock draft which requires way too much time.

So finally OBUDan shows up, posts something 4 hours after Pasty had posted it from OBUDan's account, more or less contradicting everything Pasty just said. 3 minutes later, OBUDan replies, acknowledging he hadn't kept up and just now sees what Pasty said, and that's it's "fine."

Well that just pisses mgdtiger off. He's sick and fricking tired of Dan's negligence. He secretly stages a RMD Coup via email/spreadsheet which would NEVER let the Dee Hart debacle happen under his watch.

Harry90210shows up and proclaims his love for these things. Then leaves, right before his pick.

RollTigers points at Harry on the way out and further confuses OBUDan with his avatar, which depicts a healthy Beanie Wells, something we all know doesn't exist.

So after all the debate, nothing is resolved and Tiger Phanatick is still pissed.

Pretty spot on with everything.

Except I would have said

"Dubbya tee eff mate?

But on the real, if it is that important to people that Hart has to be on a team, then just put him on whoever's team. It won't make that much of a difference.

I'm not cool enough to be named...

Yeah, i meant to add:

I don't really give two ape turds about Dee Hart's tiny little arse (what is he, 3 inches shorter than Saban?).

If Tiger Phanatick wants him, he can have him. But I wasn't sure how everyone else felt about that.

Dan I must admit that was an entertaining read. Pretty spot on.

But you guys wouldn't have selected Hillard that early becuase he won't get a ton of PT as a freshman.

But you are spot on. Someone you guys should look deep into your kind hearts and give me Dee Hart and at the Auburn game which I will be attending this year let me buy you a Beer before or after the game.

Cheers.

How do you think Kenny would feel that you are just selling him out like this. DOES YOUR AVATAR MEAN NOTHING TO YOU!?!?!?

I'll give you Dee Hart if you can put an image of him that I MS Paint with a heart around his goofy looking mug.

Who makes Avatars? I am all in on that one.

And dont get me wrong Kenny is my Fav player in this class. Thats why I snatched him up once Hart was gone. he was number 4 on my board. But i know itook him ealry. The mistake I made was I had Devonta Freeman higher than Gordan adn changed my mind after thinking about the RB situation in Wisconsin.

The only other players I had higher was. Driskel, Crowell and Mettenberger and Hart.

All in good fun.
