You not watch this year's draft? Al Davis is a changed man!

We actually took top players in positions we needed!

Btw, Jared Veldheer, the tallest in the NFL at 6'8.

Have to say it's a bit pants this college football. Just seems to be run, run and QB run.

Quite a few players cut that may become backups at other teams shortly me thinks

TJ Houshmanzadeh
Matt Leinart
Willie Parker
Pat White
Chris Simms
Jarvis Green
Derrick Burgess

A few trades by the Pats too to get some roster depth

It depends on the schemes the teams run, some run the HORRIBLE triple option, then others play exclusively in shotgun spread, of course the pro-style teams are the best to watch.

Yeah it's all been spread offenses tonight. How impressive are college stadia BTW? Unbelieveable. The Michigan stadium holds 110k! Bigger than any NFL stadia as far as I know.

3rd biggest (non race track) stadium in the world.

Aye. College football is a hell of a lot bigger than I thought! Coaches on $4mil to coach college teams? Unbelievable.

Same with high school football over there, some of them teams get 25-30k a week

We're lucky to get 10 people to come and watch us in Stoke.



Then again, AF is probably the biggest English University sport overall, Birmingham take things to a new level. They get 4K for their season opener usually.

I'm pretty sure the biggest NFL stadium is Washington's around 90k.

Michigan is 109,901 which is the largest American Football stadiums followed by Beaver Stadium in Penn State which is 107,282.

I wonder where Matt Leinart will end up ?

For the games they make standing room available isn't Jerry World bigger?

The Cowdome is 80,000 (expandable to 111,000 with standing room)

Fedex field is 91,704

I wasn't aware it had standing room. I thought it was just 80K.

It's a pretty amazing place*.

I'm pretty sure all the U Conn fans aren't as lively as they were in the pub on Friday night!



"U Conn! Huskies! U CONN! HUSKIES![/i"
"You guys from Utah, then?"
"What? No, [iU CONN[/i."
"Ahh, the Yukon! Gotcha."
" ... ?"

We'll still get stuffed by Ohio State, though.



* I think I saw on the Big Ten (no Eleven, erm Twelve, no wait - Ten ) Network that something like three of the largest grounds in the USA are in the Big Ten college football competition; Michigan, Penn State, Ohio State - all over 100k. Blimey.

I've adopted the Ohio State, mainly so my mate and I aren't always falling out about football.

Just done another fantasy draft. Can't decide if I like the outcome or not. I have a good team but my depth at RB is nothing and I have far too many WR's. Kept finding late value WR's though!

QB: Favre, McNabb
RB: Rice, Charles, McCoy (somehow got Rice at 7)
WR: Welker, Jackson, T.O, Gaffney, Floyd, Harvin
TE: Miller
K: Carpenter
DST: Giants

Currently indulging in OSU vs Texas Tech.

Anyone want details, PM me.

Surely you mean SMU? It's on ESPN if you have that

Ohio State are quality.

My team is the Florida Seminoles but since they are rarely on i usually pay close attention to other teams who have my favourite players on. I like Ohio since they have had James Laurinatis (Rams LB) and AJ Hawk on there team and they were two players i really liked. If Pryor can improve his passing slightly then he could be excellent when he makes it to the NFL.

I do, it's been a long weekend.



And my step dad is watching golf. Can't very well come down and visit and kick him off his tele.

That's because you're vile.

And so is he.

[iKeep Ann Arbor clean - dump your rubbish in Ohio.[/i

How many teams are in the league?

I like your QB's and RB's. Your RB's alot really. 3 who could easily become RB1's.

Your WR's are so-so though. Welker is coming off a huge injury, TO is a locker room cancer and Harvin regularly has problems with migranes (he was recently carted off from practise with one). Jackson, i assume, DeSean is a very good choice though.

Having some problems with my fantasy team (proper RLFans one) at WR. Rice, my number 1 WR, is out for 10 weeks. I have Sims-Walker and Edwards at WR but i can't decide who to play at my 3rd spot. Either Mike Williams from Tampa (promising rookie) or Kenny Britt (been poor so far).

Also anybody doing the Sky fantasy NFL thing. I think i've got a decent team together but it's actually quite difficult with the limited budget of $18million.

Oh, Gronkowski TE has been traded for Denver CB Alphonso Smith.

[size=25by the way it is TE Dan Gronkowski of the Lions[/size.

12 teams. I went out and grabbed RBs first. Gambled on getting Flacco late but he was taken at 78 so I picked up Favre with pick 79. Welker was in round 5 I think. Harvin I always try to draft as I think he will go on to great things plus he was in round 6 so I couldn't say no. T.O I grabbed very late in round 11 as I figured him to be a good risk/reward style player. He is also trade fodder. It is DeSean Jackson. I have till week 8 to find a backup RB that I will have to play due to McCoy and Rice sharing that bye week.

Some terrible picks in the draft. The first pick was the Jets DST. Same guy took Dallas Clark in round 2.
