No kidding, excluding my kicker who only was -1. My first 4 round picks looked like this.

7/-14
5/-17
2/-12
4/-10

Going out of this draft the only players I'll keep are the 3rd round kicker and a 5th round backup receiver. This has to be one of the top 5 all time worst drafts by an MFN GM who actually tried to have a good draft. Even my late round developmental players weren't developing fast enough to warrant keeping.

The guys to whom Pernbronze refers had volatility ratings of 94, 88, 94, 92.

Remember, "He who leaps is lost." Of course, the same people who say that also say "Nothing ventured, nothing gained."

Indeed, but I was hoping I'd get at least one to hit. But every one of them dropping... With the way my roster is built it was hard to find a guy who I could be confident where I picked would improve my team so high vol was the only option. I'm just shaking my head in disbelief.

I'm just glad you grabbed QB Maberry right before me. He was my next pick.

And the annual Sabercats bust of the year award goes to...

4th round pick CB George Ivy!

While 0/-13 may not seem as that big of a bust, (especially compared to last years winner who had a whopping +6/-26) it sure must **** to have a 7th round pick turn out to have a better overall and future rating than you.

I would grade that as (+77/-3). Your boomers increased +15 which should reduce the -18 of your busts.

Not only that, your top picks boomed, which is better than a 6th rounder booming... I think you had a fantastic camp...

I had a DT that hit a +20/+10 which sound great, but he is a 26 speed guy and he ain't getting any faster... bummer...
