Salty Lake Musings

[Guest]

Team taken over -- one of the worst franchises in the league (current franchise $ value)

Old and lots of holes -- had about 28 players prior to FA and draft

swung a big trade of my 1st round pick to get a stud TE and above aver safety

Rest of draft

Pick	Team	Team GM	Change Team	Name	Pos	post draft guess/	ex 2	outlook -
2 - 12 (44)	Salt Lake City *	jzicc (online)		Cary James	S	55----	29/46	expected more -- still probably long time starter
3 - 11 (75)	Salt Lake City *	jzicc (online)		Bill Brandon	RB	55	31/41	another miss but decent bars
4 - 6 (102)	Salt Lake City *	jzicc (online)		Tristan Clancy	CB	50	41/73	why? I'll take it
4 - 10 (106)	Salt Lake City *	jzicc (online)		Ralph Baicy	ILB	46	27/45	decent LB 3
5 - 12 (140)	Salt Lake City *	jzicc (online)		Marlon Erhardt	WR	44	22/34	ugh
6 - 31 (191)	Salt Lake City *	jzicc (online)		Amos Zimmerman	K	63	48/61	10 year starter
7 - 10 (202)	Salt Lake City *	jzicc (online)		Braxton Cash	WR	37	21/32	another ugh

there's going to be at least 30 new players on the roster ---- going to be a stretch to get to 6 wins

Same boat man - this off season I dumped majority of my play makers for future picks to do a hard reboot. I'm hoping we get above 5 wins this year but Idk. Also the cap situation was painful and will be once again next year due to trading/releasing for cap space. Currently sitting at 30m+ dead money next year. CPU had some TERRIBLE contracts.

Draft was okay -- 3 starters + a K -- without a 1st rounder...

32 new players but only 5 new starters ; went from one of the oldest rosters to average age--- a few legacy dumps next year and we'll be a team on the rise

Absolutely no RB and WRs --- TE is going to have callusses

[Guest]

First win under our belt, LB weakness and stud WR needed to compete at a mediocre level

Stadium	11,100 (40,000 capacity)

$1 beer for the rest of the year to get some fans in to see their division leading team (6-1)

Ended up 11-5 and a top 10 team;

offense somehow above average and Defense below average

************

Only 12 players left from the roster cleansing which started 2 years ago when I took over

SOmehow cash strapped as I always am;

DRAFT : only 1, 2nd and 5th rounders kept -- only had 4 total (dropped the 4th rounder)

4 new starters --1 from trade; 1 draft and 2 FAs ---

Defensive Line (4-3) with all starters above 60 will have to make up again for the lackluster LB corps which will again be one of the worst;

TE Furrer and his new $115 million over 5 year contract will again be the focus of the offense ;

Going to say another 11-5 season - above aver O and average Def.

We are only a great RB or WR and a great LB away from being a title contender

[Guest]

injuries really putting a damper on a decent team

[Guest]

ended up 10-6
above average defense with insane interceptions (31) and a +/- of 20!!! and all that done with a bottom 5 pass rush.
offense below average as the lack of an average WR is turning a top 10 qb into a bottom 5 QB;

NEEDS -- WR, LB, RB and we will be a contender (which is a reiteration of what I said in the pre-season forecast)

Damn 31 picks?????

Damn 31 picks?????

sad part I didn't even notice until season was almost over ; below mediocre (ratings) S with 10

Wow with 46 INT bar and he got 10.... Last year as a Rookie he had 4... Definitely something going on behind the screens!!

[Guest]

Somehow made it to the super bowl but lost to the CAMDEN running machine; big offensive upgrades are needed to compete

Nice table man, with the links to the conscriptor and all, some of your players look better than advertised.
