2017 Annual Drinking Trading and Drafting Night

This is an annual advent. I am working on a pot of coffee and a bottle of aspirins this morning after a long night of NFL debauchery. This year we had to do our best at staying with in the cap. Which led to even more aspirins than usual. Amazingly we all did. I think. Round one was started when everyone was already pass the point of tipsy. 32 people and a lot of empties later this is what the Saints came away with.

Rules are simple.
Have to stick with tendency from the past. See pick 1
Have trust in gut based Rumors. IE round 3
Stay with in projected caps number

Well here we go.

Missed out on TE and OT grrr But

Offense

Picked up

What were you drinking? Whatever it was, I think I'd like a little of that just to keep up.

I want him as a DE not as a SLB. His short comings are all in his LB play for the most part.
