Thats in 11 games. When a 7th round pick that was cut from the Vikings (which means he's horrible) starts and does this well, he gets a nice rating boost. I wouldn't be surprised if he was 83 OVR in 2010.

Meh, low 80s tops, and no room to progress (given that Cassel is now the man there). Dunno.

Usually with backup's though unless the fuck up miserably they're rating will go down, which I doubt will happen because Cassel is there. So basically, he'll stay an 83. Smile

Its the same with many backup's in the league.

So why are you paying 25 points for a backup QB then? (especially since you have Schaub)

He wasn't cut, he (for some reason I can't understand) did not make the 53-man roster, and was attempted to pass through waivers to the practice squad. Since the Vikings and Kansas City scrimmage against each other a lot in Training Camp the Chiefs saw that Thigpen had some potential and picked him up off waivers. And lots of Viking fans have not let go of that move to this day.

Cassell isnt a sure thing. He could have been a fluke.

I love how Frenchy bids on Golston from 36 to 38 but says 42 is way to much...

MK did you outbid yourself on Bironas?

Admin Posts : 1244 Join date : 2008-10-03

Sure did.

Admin Posts : 2674 Join date : 2008-08-20 Age : 31

Okay just making sure there wasn't a deleted bid or something.

Admin Posts : 2674 Join date : 2008-08-20 Age : 31

You don't have to "claim" players after 48 hours... When I see it's been 48 hours, I'll lock it up and edit it into the title. If 48 hours have passed and I haven't done this yet (which is likely since I'm not on 24/7) then you can just leave it and post the signing in your thread here in the HQ.

You have MK as your admin. You honestly expect him to do something productive for the league that doesn't benefit him?
