Cool video guys. Always nice to get praise in these. I knew I would get a shout-out when Nick started listing players he was looking at in the draft and I picked like 3 of them.

So good when I’ve got a drive to do and realise one of these has been posted…perfect…thanks guys Interesting points about the draft and what utilities can take away from the game. Completely agree we need to prevent the game from getting too solved as it would kill MP for all of us. I stopped trying to get better at that stuff consciously at one point…but every time I have a dodgy draft I must admit to being tempted to build a better one  |

After every draft I always come away from it and try and get better. Its what I love about the game, whenever you think you know something, it challenges you and reminds you that you are an idiot 😂 |

Awesome video guys and thanks for looping back for the new guy. Glad to hear there isn't something I'm missing with this team that would make it a contender. I have to think I'm leading that 1.1 race.

I think the problem is top players are afraid of not being top players any more if others solve the game too thoroughly. I think solving the game is the only way to become a top player... So it's a Catch-22... if someone gets too good, they have 'solved the game' too much, and are then exiled because the top players start losing their grip on the top. Sucks even more when players solve certain aspects of the game, share that information, and are still ridiculed and ostracized.

All we ask for is that we just play fairly. Best equivalent is playing chess, and someone is using a chess computer against you, the game becomes unfair, and its impossible to compete. Even Magnus Carlsen, the greatest chess player ever isn't half as good as the best chess computer. |

I enjoyed the video, thanks for continuing to do these.
Am I the only who went WTF when Joel dipped into his mobile to pull the rookie draft profile of a now 34 yr old qb??

I have pictures of drafting reports from when I started the league in 2028. I am a hoarder, and they come in handy sometimes. Like Lemoine looked almost identical in bar pattern to a guy called Jerry Walker, that turned out to be ok back in around the 2036 draft. |
