[averagejoe]

Worked hard on this so I'm sharing.
Used the same colors as OBX but toned the the hues down a bit.
Hope I got them right.

 

[obxyankeefan]

Thanks @averagejoe

I do appreciate all the help i can get.

 

[obxyankeefan]

First off everyone check their teams and let me know if I put someone in wrong.

WW are now open and will go to FA on Wed at 3 AM EST.

We have some rules to go over so I will be posting two new threads in the next few days. (draft type next year and Taxi Squad)

 

[obxyankeefan]

@averagejoe You don't need to follow my color schemes in the future. I am color blind and do the colors by position on the color graph.

 

[TREFF]

Roster check. ..good
Trading block update...good
RB situation. .. absolute shit
Open for business

@obxyankeefan
Sorry but you missed my 4th round pick. RB Lance Dunbar LAR
You added Dunbar to your chart but not in Fantrax.

I'll take the 3rd down RB behind Gurley, free agent Lance Dunbar. Drop the other Lance, Kendricks.

Since Kendricks is already off my roster go ahead cut RB Christine Michael.

OBX and Joe- Just Fabulous!!!
About to get a little sappy, but I feel so lucky to be invloved with this whole group.

I would offer CJ to you but he is way too valuable

 

[Stomp]

and Taxi Squad)

As far as the Taxi squad goes i'd like it to be rookie only that doesn't go away, but only players with the rookie tag can stay on it to be considered.

@TKOSpikes is colorblind also.
I think we found out during a Thursday night game when both teams wore all dark uni's.

For anybody that did not see this the WW is open for business. It will close at 3AM on Wednesday and FA will be open until the Taxi Squad is done.

Someone is really gonna have to explain this whole taxi squad to me in exceptionally small, easy to understand terms. . why on earth a group of people as good as we consider ourselves to be want to constantly try and make all these roster decisions easier is simply beyond me. 20 spots isn't enough?? Just don't understand why we can't just simply make the call, for better for worse. An extra five slots, even ones you can't technically use, only simplifies and waters down the entire thing. Might as well just call it a 25 man roster, or beck, screw it, go limitless, go nuts, never make a hard call again

I think a full time taxi squad for rookies ( at least rookie when put on the squad) is a cool idea. See a rookie that that has potential but isn't ready straight out of the box for the NFL? Yet you feel " this player could develop into something special with coaching, experience and mostly time", however with byes injuries and such you can't afford to just stash him, eventually the rest of the league catches up with your gem once he developes and someone else nabs him once he starts shining, leaving you to stew over the fact that you may have been the first to see his potential, but didn't help you in the least.

Where did you find that quote from Treff?

And NO to a full time Taxi Squad.

I know we are not talking about a full time taxi squad here. I think it's pretty cool we have one at all. Progressive. Baby steps and all that.
