1996 Training Camp

Hmph! So much for that!

1.9 WR John Gill Vol: 60 +12/-3 Now 61/81

The situation is so bad that he'll still be a starter. He'll never help a young QB though. Such a one would be an automatic bust. These days, it seems that anyone I draft is that.

2.8 RB Harry Charles Vol: 6 +10/-1 Now 42/72

It's so sad that one of the stars of my camp only busted a *little.*

3.7 RG Joseph Carter Vol: 100 +3/-21 Now 44/63

It's easy to see why everybody crowds into low vol. Risk is ruthlessly punished.

4.30 WR Sean Reid Vol: 28 +5/-3 Now 37/67

Once again, low vol fails to protect me.

5.5 FB Robert Graham Vol: 16 +10/-1 Now 35/51

I guess it's a good thing I played it safe.

5.9 TE Todd Ferguson Vol: 80 +7/-9 Now 35/57

Financial reality necessitates that I'll play him.

5.30 K Mac Otterson Vol: 76 +3/-3 Now 47/77

Can't I have nice things? Just a little bit?

6.8 SLB Steven Harless Vol: 68 +8/+5 Now 31/56

Meaning I can finally get rid of one of the ne'er-do-well incumbents. Thank goodness!

6.11 MLB Christopher Lopez Vol: 70 +7/-7 Now 35/51

I've got to be able to do better than this.

I had hoped to get this team out of the dumpster before I left it, but I guess such a thing is not allowed. Maybe the only solution is to give up and go away.

3.10: -15
4.09: -10
5.08: -15
6.07: +3

I'm no longer disappointed by camps like this. Only because this is what I have come to expect. Bad draft pools and bad camps are the norm now, just the way JDB designed it.

If he's meaning to chase people away, he's doing a good job of it.

I can add to the sad sack draft list:

2.26 CB -2
3.26 WR -12
5.26 SLB -3
6.26 C +3
7.26 WR -2

100% would've been better off not spending a second on the draft and just let the ai do my picks.

Did anyone have a good draft?

I was able to restock the trenches somewhat, as well as adding two skill defenders that I'm comfortable seeing playing time. Very unsexy
