2039 OSFL Tobacco Bowl

nice win rob!

Just to revisit this. The trade was:

Morgantown 2037 1st, Pearl Harbor 2037 3rd, Morgantown 2038 1st, G Dave Michels, QB Nathan Swafford, OLB Ted Collier

Waco sends QB Norm Dakota

• The Morgantown 2031 1st was used to draft TE Rex Plank who was traded along with a 6th in 2040 to Utah for 4.3 in 2039 (our current WLB Parker Jacobs)

• The Pearl Harbour 2037 3rd was used to draft RDT Ian Mills who we released.

• The Morgantown 2038 1st was traded to draft Las Vegas for their 2039 1st rounder which turned to be WR Trent Ramsey (1.5)

• Dave Michels played 3 seasons in Waco, got a ring in 2037 and was lost in free agency to Pearl Harbour

• Swafford and Collier were released soon after the trade.

So, yes? Lol

Your run has been pretty similar to what Nuts did. He had so many draft picks that he was able to make smart movies whenever he wanted. That 1.5 to you was the real winner for you. Should've been illegal! ;)

Here is a post that I had form week 11, that you may have missed on how I built my receiving core:

Rob, this is just disgusting.



Having this much receiving talent should be illegal. Wow.

We have spent a lot of HIGH draft picks on receiving talent and for the most part we have been lucky.

We used:

- a 1st and 5th to trade for WR Upshaw
- a 1st to draft WR Ramsey
- a 1st to draft TE Fadler
- a high 2nd to draft WR Rafter
- a high 2nd to draft WR Gideon
- a high 2nd to draft WR Gilmore
- a high 2nd to draft WR Shaw

Along with all those hits we had misses on:

- TE Rex Plank (1.17) traded to Utah
- TE Toby Manning (2.13) traded to Port City

We also lost 4th round WR gem Deion Winslett to Columbus in free agency.

Rob managed to spin a lot of 2nd to 5th round picks in a short timespan into very good, starting caliber receivers. Some of which he kept, some of which he parlayed into better. Definitely not a very common sight, that kind of WR talent all on one team. Usually you have to break your back to get there and it's not worth it.

However, if it just comes your way via the draft, it can be a gold mine.

Of course, much credit also has to go to a pretty powerful Waco OL. When we were still Pro Bowl voting, I remember Waco guys being in top consideration for all the OL spots.

A very nice run here by Waco. Hopefully we'll have the NC put the kabosh on this AC attitude soon enough ;)

Well, congrats to

Rob ... again.

I have to believe that this run has happened because of all those 1st rounders I gave up for Dakota. How else do you have more receiving talent than anyone has ever assembled?

Congrats on the great season and on making it to the big game in back to back years.

It was nice to get revenge for last year. We got lucky with our CB Buddy Shahade stepping up on your final drive to get the INT and seal the victory. I believe that his is the first time in OSFL history that an offensive lineman (LT Tyrell Edwards) has won Tobacco Bowl MVP. He tied the single game playoff record with 7 run blocks. I went with a more run based offense this post season and it is nice to see that that kind of game plan can win a MP Championship. I don't think this would have been possible under the old game.

I thought we had a chance to steal away a win when we got the ball at you 39 with just over 2 minutes to play but your guys came away with the INT to seal the deal.

Good luck next year, hopefully we'll see ya again.

HTML should be up to date from the past two sims. Let me know if it isn't!

It stinks that there had to be a losing team in this game. Grats to both for a great season.

Looking at the awards, I can honestly say this is a surprise:



I have no idea how he ended up with 50% blocking percentage. He's ... mediocre to a fault.

Oh well, enjoy the award!

As long as he doesn't want an All Pro extension. ;)

I'm guessing the html hasn't been updated?

Congrats rob. Good season guys

GG Waco & Camden. I did not miss the winner by much or at least my prediction was closer score wise than sharks lol.

[FrozenFlame]

GOOD LUCK!

Yeah, I'm not in a rush to get through these sims -- I definitely want manual confirmation from everybody if we do run one early. Sim will be posted shortly.
