So in my 14-Team 9-cat H2H $ League, i traded my 1st (8th overall) and 2nd (21st) round picks for multiple early-mid rounders. Just wanted to share this with you guys and get your thoughts because most of you might not have seen anything like this in live snake drafts.

My Picks:
Team No Top 35’s

1. Pick #36
2. Pick #41
3. Pick #44
4. Pick #49
5. Pick #51
6. Pick #64
7. Pick #69
8. Pick #72
9. Pick #77
10.Pick #92
11.Pick #97
12.Pick #100
13.Pick #105

Obviously, i do not have picks in rounds 1 & 2. Nor do i have one from rounds 9-13! As you can see, my last pick is #105. Just for reference, the final pick in 14-teamers is #182. Not sure how this will work out for me but i am always willing to take a gamble and try out new things. Wasn't too thrilled with getting the 8th pick anyway. I will look to update this thread during the season since Erik, Neil, and Chef are in this league as well. Wish me luck! =P

Wow! I can't say I have ever seen such a gutsy move! I think it has the potential to work out for you! Your basically going to have an entire team of top 100 players!
Good luck man! I love it!

Agree with Dan. Looks like a solid team, well rounded across stats but will be middle of the road for most except FG. Likely struggle to win matchups against teams with top talent, especially whwhetheir top guys have high game count weeks.

For H2H it may have been better to lean more agressively towards 5 or 6 stats given the lack of top talent.
