[tremonthustler1]

First of all, @labelplant on his thread and what he's been doing all season.

@Wacky D on the college basketball banter

Combine stuff is from the 10th-15th, with the drills and TV stuff on Thursday and Friday.


I'll post my next mock next week after the lottery which is next Tuesday already.

Brett Brown will represent Philly. Mitch is going for LA.

We can begin selecting guys to rep teams. Throw your name in the hat

(If LA loses their pick to Philly, 5 teams will be responsible for half of the draft. Philly would have 4, Boston, Denver, Phoenix with 3 apiece, Toronto 2). In the 2nd round, 7 teams at the moment will combine for 17 picks, Boston with 5 of them)
