ACC Nation fantasy football draft board
The draft begins at 9 p.m. tonight. If you run into problems (like your computer or Internet connection goes down) call me at 540-290-7551.
To see a list of players selected, click here.
To post your picks or a comment, simply click on "Post a Comment" at the bottom, then type your message in the "Leave a Comment" section. In "Choose an identity," select "Other" and type in your team name.
If you have questions, call the number above.
A few other things to keep in mind:
1. All teams must have a former player from a current ACC school starting for them every week.
2. If one of the teams doesn't show up to draft, Patrick, as commissioner, has the right to draft for them.
3. There is no time limit on picks, but try to make your selections as quickly as possible. We don't want this thing dragging on too long.
4. We will have 15 rounds. You need to pick the following positions: QB (1), WR (3), RB (2), TE (1), K (1) and defense (1). There are also six bench players who can play any position.
5. Have fun and bear with us. We've never done the draft on our blog and we hope it works. We ran a test this afternoon and it seemed to go OK.

I am ready for pick #1
I am ready to pick dead last!
BenzitosRBack are in the house ... jumping the gone aren't you Shirts?
Just checking to see if this works..and, uh, not to be picking nits at this 11th hour, but technically, when one selects a "defense," won't it be bound to have at least one ACC player on it?
hehehe
Will someone alert us via Comment when it is our turn to pick?
How many teams do we have signed up?
Looks like it!
Sunnydale Razorbacks has arrived.
Does he want Vick? Do I think you are throwing it.
I just want to take this opportunity to talk about what a great player Michael Vick is.
Um ...
Yeah. He's great.
Actually, we didn't have Cappers, but got a replacement. But so far Sacco is MIA. I guess we may have to go with 11 teams. On Friday night Sacco said he was good to go on Sunday night at 9. Maybe he'll still show.
Those 'Hoos and Heels looked solid yesterday. That should be a wonderful Thursday night game.
I say we start ... i know our #1 pick guy was here earlier
maybe he went to get a coke ... my clock shows 8:57
Just got a call from West End Explosion. He is drafting for both him and Nashville Generals, but he's having computer problems. So I've got him on speaker phone and will type in his draft. That means my cell phone is tied. If anyone has problems e-mail me, I guess.
I'll call Shirts if he doesn't respond in the next minute
Give me just a minute and we'll get going. I'm trying to get my kid out the door for a sleep over.

Patrick: I say you leave the selections up for listeners to weigh in on who got the best team
One idea, Mr. Commissioner - 10 picks, then everybody else is free agent, beginning at 3 p.m. Monday.
I can't do that. Yahoo won't allow me. We have to fill out our rosters. Sorry. You're in it until it's over.

did kari fall asleep?
yes it will, actually - And I may bug out after 10 anyway
Jamal Lewis to Nashville
Jamal Lewis has already been picked
Frank Gore then,
