    That's very true. I don't mind it at 48 hours. I'd hate 36 hours. I just see lots of confusion happening there for some reason :lol: just looking to provide an alternative.

    How many hours was it last year?

    It was 24 hours last year. Over paid cornerbacks? Seems like the norm in this league, though the lineman salaries are getting a bit crazy this year. Everyone needs to stop listening to the Al Davis on their shoulders...

    And to give Maj a heart attack when he gets outbid after waiting 47 hours and 50 minutes for one of his players to sign... :shifty:

    Wow, glad you guys all hate my WR corps, that is fine, I will sell them on you eventually.

    Wanted to wonder how in the world I got James Sanders for 300k? Seriously the kid is 26 and has started every game for the Patriots the past two years. My gain.

    Doesn't matter how good your wide receivers are with my linebacker corp...

    Wide receivers can't catch the ball when the quarterback is on his back.

    Few holes one this team..had two big things to do...

    1. Get an offense....I did that, brought in CJ and Romo

    2. Tighten the pass D to go along with the smothering run D. This goes a LONG way in doing that...

    3. Have fun....and DAMN if it wasn't fun bidding with the skins on 2 fronts :) I have have overpaid by 15-20% or so, but IMO he overpaid for leonhard by about 40-50%.

    Dude makes plays. I got cap room for days. D Hall was a lot of fun. I wasn't going to pay more than 7 and was really relieved when you called me at 9. Right now i am winning Greer and Hayden at the same price as Hall. I'll take that any day.

    Hell yeah man. At first Hall was just cheap so I figured take a flier on him. Then I droppedo out when he got more expensive and focused on leonhard. But when he got into Hall range I said "screw it..I'll make that bastard pay" :) Gish and I were wondering if you' go up to 10 (9.5 was my limit lol).

    Good times, i'll always remember the epic biding :)

    Looks like the Raiders want to improve their defensive line ... wonder whether the Chiefs will raise that bid?

    Last year I signed Randy Starks for $300K a day before the Dolphins actually signed him...

    And to think, the Cardinals were a mere 20 minutes away of welcoming Grove to Arizona... and then Stitches had to step in...

    Patrick Willis > All of those guys.

    :tongue2:

    Hard to compare a 3-4 front seven to a 4-3 front seven.

    Yours is probably one of the best, if not the best, 4-3 front seven in the league.

    Last year was a beastly line for me:
    Derrick Burgess
    Jason Taylor
    John Henderson

    My Lb'ers were great also including Zach Thomas and such.

    Even though Taylor did nothing this year and just got released, and Burgess totals dipped for a second straight year.

    no theyre just simply bidding for a player they had no intention on asking about even though his asking price right now is even more than what his original cap space was, so they couldve just had him for a draft pick instead of this crazy bidding...

    oh is that the definition of overpaying?

    Yeah like crazy


    Paying more for a player than he is worth. He could not stay healthy and could not get more sacks than a DT.

    If you have the money and want the player, I don't see the issue since GM league money isnt real :lol:

    yeah, its not like we have to save the money for next year. being in good cap status has no effect on the outcome of this league. if youve got most of your needs filled already i see no real issue with overspending in FA.

    San Diego... in the words of gish, **** you.

    lol, I was about to send you a PM on the day you dropped Bosch to trade him a 6th since my Boley bid went south. Problem is, I didn't finish a practice test until after you did. Don't suppose you can retract cuts I guess.
