1988 Draft Discussion

[Matt]

Pitt has 2 minutes. I'm afraid to go to sleep because I will miss my pick.

Auto from list scares me. I like to have last minute debates with my coaching staff.

Edit...disregard. Realized the utility is a daytime draft only.

Chad Rowe was a coin-flip with Daly.

Hyundai and me definitely have the same scout.

Yup. I had Chad Rowe as 7887756
Jerry Daly was 8877688

If you type in Kel Brown in the game search he shows up.

But you're right. I checked it out and he doesn't show up on my draft search either.

Odd.

I'll be more than willing to say that I'm doing something wrong or stupid, but I just need to know what it is. I can't really feel good about making my upcoming pick if someone with early 2nd round talent doesn't even show up in my draft list.

In the utility? Aren't they removed when they are picked?

No, in-game.

Ok, I think I'm going crazy. The last pick, LF Kel Brown, is not in my in-game draft list. That's strange.

I found Kel Brown in my Player Search List, but I swear my draft list goes from Hugh Brown to Zach Brown. No Kel. WTF?

How can a player just be missing from a draft list?

Got our Jerry Daly consolation prize with OF Shawn Watson. Our scout loves him; he's hitting well in college; we need OF depth in our system.

Any one else high (or low) on him or my last pick, 1B Willie Marshall? We now have our scouts #3 (Okamoto), #4 (Marshall) and #9 (Watson) prospects on the draft list. I know it's been beaten to death, but I'm not crazy about the discrepancies in scouting.

Marshall - 45643
Okamoto - 457
Watson - 47344

My scout says Marshall = HOF.

So does mine, but I was still really skeptical of taking him. I went back and forth with him and Daly and convinced myself Daly had a better chance to still be there in the early 2nd. I just see Marshall ending up as a 4-6-6-4-4 guy for whatever reason. But my scout loves him... and he's been crushing the ball in the Cape.

Love the Chad Rowe pick by Hyundai. He was my #1 overall player.

Can't wait to see how the kid progresses.

I'm kicking myself that I passed on him.

How did he not go sooner?
