Draft Lottery Details and MORE!

I am just the messenger...

Much like the NFL...we are just flying by the seat of our pants this offseason.  Here is the rundown of events that will take place in the next few weeks:

• August 15th (Monday) - The lotto will be run by the commissioner and the results will be released on this site.  An email notification will go out, as well.
• August 19th (Friday) - All franchise tags are due to the commissioner.
• August 27th (Saturday) - This was the original date for the Lotto.  Due to people's schedules and freshly made babies, it will just be easier for the lotto to take place in cyber space.  With that said, I still think we should all try to get together on this Saturday.  Time and location unknown.
• August 28th (Sunday) - 2011 NCL Draft.  Location is unknown for now.

The 2011 NCL Lottery
Here is a breakdown of the lottery balls for each team:

• Kelly - 100 balls   (Eli Manning is looking strong this year)
• Mendo - 75 balls  (5 ball penalty for playing Inactive J.Addai in Week 8)
• Tibs - 60    (Here is your chance to screw over your lil bro in law. AP to Tibs!)
• Boobs - 50  (balls and Boobs.  Hangover Part II, anybody?)
• Metz - 40   (Will Peyton still be around???)
• Tom - 30    (How appropriate for this year!  Well, I guess everyone in this league is around that age.  So, it's not that crazy.  Well, except for Boobs.  But hey....his ball count is appropriate too!  ***queue rimshot***)
• Martin - 20  (10x the normal man!)
• Bille - 10    (10x the normal Lance Armstrong!)

Wall, Jace, Sal and Efurd have no balls.  Obviously.


Franchise Tags Detail
Between the 15th and 19th, you must decide whether you will keep your first round pick or tag a current player with the infamous 1-YEAR TAG.  Also, during this time, each team must decide on all other franchise tag details.  New 3-YEAR TAGs and the DROP TAGs must be done by the 19th.  Here is a breakdown of the players that must ADD at least ONE 3-YEAR TAG:

• Jace
• Boobs
• Tom
• Mendo
• Sal
• Tibs

This post should of been titled....Don't Fear The Bullet Points.

I almost forgot to mention this.  Reef wanted to know if anybody needs the 2010 Final Rosters excel doc.  You know, just in case you haven't seen it yet.
