Plubby comin' to kick all our asses!

Plubby was actually better off taking Kellen Moore.

Arian Foster, RB, Houston

That was fast, even for Arian Foster standards

[Plubby]

Can I re-pick that and take two now? Or do I just have to get funky with Waivers early? Is there a precedent for a serious injury during the draft?

Edit:  Guarantee that due to me laughing at Plubby's misfortune, my first nine picks are going to think they're chickens/knocked out due to love for Pitt the Elder/etc. etc.

LET ME THINK

The problem is at the moment it doesn't appear to be season ending.  But even if he goes on IR with designation, he won't be back till Week 10.   Its kind of unprecedented to have a big injury like this occur literally on the first day of the draft, hours after a pick is made.  I do feel bad.   I'm thinking a conditional pick at the end of the draft perhaps.   Perhaps it is time to create a compensation draft, if you have a player go down with an injury over the course of our draft and they'll miss significant time, we do an extra round at the end for their owners.

I mean, we're 10 seasons into doing this, we're all quite friendly and there's no money on the line, I don't see too much of an issue.  Discuss!

But at the moment @Plubby proceed as normal with one pick.

I like the idea of the pick at the end. Getting a do over doesn't seem fair though. Sorry Plubby

[Plubby]

No biggie. I lost my first rounder last year due to an injured Being Adrian Peterson and still stormed to take the...consolation playoffs.

 

I'll take Matt Forte, RB, DA BEARS.

If it helps you just took my pick

[Maxx]

Still have to make one 

[Plubby]

If it helps you just took my pick

When I was projecting picks out I knew that he wasn't going to get past you in Round 2 (And of course would not have gotten back to me in Round 3 anyway) so I knew I had to take him by that pick. It was just a case of trying to get Foster AND Forte and trying to guess which of the two was going to make it back to me.

 

As it turns out, Foster: Rest in Pepperonis so lol, Plubby. Now everybody gets to be miserable >_<

Ol Dirty Beckham Jr.

[LL!]

Why the sad face? You just took my pick.

@Dan is next.

[Dan]

Jeremy Hill, RB, Cincy.

@thatshortguy

[thatshortguy]

Going against my intuition, I'm going with Drew Brees, QB, New Orleans Headhunters.

@livid, you're up.

[LL!]

@livid is up.

[thatshortguy]

Reports are starting to trickle in that @livid is now up in the 2015 EWBFL Draft.

[livid]

Demaryius Thomas, WR, Broncos

@Cactus Drags you're up.
