Tuinei had a catch this week. Other than that my other guys were pretty quiet

Sorry - no time for finding articles and links and such, but:

Turbin: I'm biased, but I'm beyond happy with his performance, especially given he's a 4th rounder. I think he's the #2 as long as Leon's returning kicks. If we jam Tate back there, The Turbinator might be #3 and a smidge less impressive as far as our little competition goes. Pretty jazzed about what he's done this preseason.

Sweezy: Again... biased... but I keep hearing superlatives about his transformation in camp this year. Sounds to me like he's going to back *somebody* up at one of the guard spots, and may start by season's end.

Law: Finally saw the man in the KC game - and he looked like a guy who's going to make this team. Nice UDFA guy... this FO should just skip the first round and go from there. If they have a weakness in the draft thusfar, it seems to be that first round, heh.

Obo: Is he hurt? Haven't seen him at all.

I may not win this thing, given my late response and 12/24/36/48 draft position, but I'm feeling pretty good about my adopted crew, heh.

One of these days, I'll take some time and update my sig... probably. Never did get anyone to respond regarding getting one made - those "post your requests here" threads are a joke unless you want something that the artists out there already like... and no one gives a rip about #80 anymore, so I think I'm hosed unless I see if someone wants to make one for JR Swizzeezy. I'd sport that.

well my summary for my guys so far.

Earl Thomas- Played well this preseason. Made some very nice plays and had that Pick 6 last game.

Marshawn Lynch- Only played in the 2nd preseason game but ran like a beast like usual.

Malcolm Smith- Thought he would have a big year and be my sleeper pick but havent seen much of him throughout the preseason.

Phil Bates- Thought he might make the team as last receiver or practice squad but only had 1 catch in 3 games and was cut this week.

Who ever had Russell Wilson is hands down the winner in this thing, Wilson went from 3rd rd draft pick to starting QB, Who is going to beat that?, and I think Shazor4 was the man with the pick, congrats!

I don't expect to win this. My top chocies were (sadly) gone by my pick.

We'll see how Brandon Browner does once the D is less vanilla, and with how Bobby Wagner develops.

Hausch is le man though Wink

lets see here, i dont see how i lost this one

Max Unger, beast

Clinton McDonald, a couple good play this preseason

Lavasier Tuinei, 1 catch best WR on the team

Jason Jones, Best FA addition

nah i lost but i do expect 2 of these guys to be players this year in JJ and Unger

Roy Lewis got cut Sad

Kearse looks like he'll be hoping for a PS at best.

Mebane is obviously a beast

Ryan is one of the top punters in the league.

Luckily I got two pretty damn good ones.

Irvin: didn't show much in the first two preseason games, but had a good game vs the chiefs.

Tate: was a man on fire when I drafted him, but he has cooled a little, but I think that 92yd return for a TD vs the chiefs might be the fire Tate needs to start the season off right.

Guy: he's been a hit-or-miss in TC and preseason, not much to report about him.

Ruud: well he's gone, traded to the saints. I guess, I should get some credit the Hawks did get a 7rd pick in return for him Very Happy

all in all, my draft class didn't fare too well in TC or Preseason.. hopefully they do it when it really counts in the reg. season.

Sweezy!

So... the Dude who drafted 12/24/36/48 in this thing snagged Sweezy (your starting RG), Turbin (might be your starting RB), Obo (underwhelming, but steady), and Law (punted off the squad... dammit!).

I'm feeling a bit PC/JS-esque in my sleeper picks.

Doubtful my guys will outshine any of the 11 starters picked ahead of me in that first round, but I'm giving myself an honorable mention in this thing.

Maybe next year, we split the process a little. Adopt-a-Hawk (that's for all season, stats to follow, etc - pick yer starters), and a Project-a-rookie (for the unknowns to see who makes the club and becomes 2013's version of Wilson, Wagner, Sweezy, Irvin... etc)

Is it Sunday yet?
