I had a feeling way before the draft that one particular team would be interested to draft me. Anyways, I had a slight excitement in a draft day regardless. Getting drafted is always fun. Excitement about the new team, suspense on how low or high I'll be drafted etc. One thing is having a feeling about my draft position and a team, the actual results is the other thing.
The draft position was even more strong reason why I had an excitement on the draft day. I was hiding for a moment since I felt I would have more fun to be drafted as low as possible. So the draft would answer my question if my tactic worked. The fact that this draft had a good number of running backs and not everyone needed them was making my life easier as well.
As it turns out, my feelings were on point 100%. Mid draft, Chicaco Butchers. To be exact, 45th overall pick, and upgrade over 70th in DSFL a year before. Did I want to drop even lower? I guess so, but I wasn't upset about this result at all. As I said before, this was exactly the place I was expecting to be in. I had a nice relationship the Butchers' GM in other sim leagues and I wasn't a big draftee to be drafted too high. So mid draft made all the sense here. My feelings on the team is kinda mixed at this moment. I still remember how my kicker Fulture was just cut out by the previous Chicago GM right before the season start so it left a sour taste on my mouth. Here's to hope this changes soon and that moment will just be a distant past.
