2016 PGA $ LEAGUE DRAFT THREAD

[FL4WL3SS]

He played a lot of golf last year and has been trending up every year. Sort of a flier pick here... ROBERT STREB

 

[ezemerson]

not a flier.....he performed extremely well for me last year even when he used a wedge instead of a putter on the green

 

[ezemerson]

i have 3 guys on my big board with only four picks in front of me....hoping one of them survives

 

[Average Reds]

I'll be in and out of meetings this afternoon but will check to see when T4P makes his pick. I'm set with one of two or three options based on what he takes.

 

[FL4WL3SS]

TFP will be making his pick this afternoon. He's jammed up in meetings.

 

[TFP]

Sorry guys, been absolutely buried at work.

Taking a leap here, hoping this guy continues his. Qualified for all majors and big tourneys, playing well to start the year, has big upside but big downside as well. Screw it, let's shoot big. KEVIN KISNER

 

[Leon Trotsky]

That is a great pick. He was my best player last year and has made tremendous strides.

 

[ezemerson]

and there goes one of my three off the board

 

[bostonbeerbelly]

Really solid pick, probably would have been the same guy I choose in that spot. He is trending to be a threat in every tournament.

 

[Average Reds]

Hadn't considered MATT KUCHAR because I had assumed he would be gone by now, so that's a plus.

 

[ezemerson]

damn it

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

He wasn't going to get to you

 

[FL4WL3SS]

Honestly, he was a steal at my pick, I just can't stand the guy and I don't want to have to root for him. Great pick AR.

 

[BigMike]

And there we have the one person who hates the most likeable player on tour

 

[cshea]

He's also the most boring.

 

[Dave Stapleton]

Hadn't considered MATT KUCHAR because I had assumed he would be gone by now, so that's a plus.

That was my other pick.

 

[Average Reds]

He's also the most boring.

I'm just happy that he's not Nick Watney.

 

[FL4WL3SS]

And there we have the one person who hates the most likeable player on tour

I can't stand his "gee golly" schtick and his stupid teeth smile and boring golf game.

He probably doesn't drive over the speed limit. It's not normal. It's fucking weird.

 

[ezemerson]

Every time I see someone has posted I get excited that a pick was made, but nope

 

[Leon Trotsky]

Agreed. I would root for Patrick Reed or even Tiger all day over Kuchar. His mouth doesn't move when he talks. It's unnatural and I think he might be an alien.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Well alrightee then

 

[teddykgb]

JUSTIN THOMAS

Gonna take a flyer on him. In the first round. Anything will be better than what Kuchar did for me last year, nice bastard that he is. Sorry it took so long, I too had a child and she's a colicky mess who clearly wants me to be insane.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Son of a bitch, that was my pick.

Now I need to regroup. Fuck

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

I'll take BRANDT SNEDEKER

 

[ezemerson]

Dam it all 3 guys I wanted gone in the last 4 picks....please hold

 

[ezemerson]

Ok drafting guys I like this year over guys who I think will do better...bold strategy cotton...JB HOLMES - bolded

 

[AirborneSas]

I really wanted Walker....

HENRIK STENSON please bold

Edit: tried to pick Walker

 

[4 6 3 DP]

Walker was taken.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

A duplicate in the first round may be a record

 

[4 6 3 DP]

So I am going to go with a strategy that may kill me but I want to get guys who I think are likely to play well in the biggies, and I'll figure out the other tourneys later. Picking on the ends isn't ideal here.

PAUL CASEY
SERGIO GARCIA

 

[Leon Trotsky]

Those are really good picks for the end of the first round. If Sergio plays more than 13 tourneys you'll be good.

 

[ezemerson]

That's a popular strategy in this league too especially when we get into the later rounds

 

[AirborneSas]

PHIL MICKELSON

 

[cshea]

Stenson and Lefty, eh? Trying to copy my team from last year?

 

[ezemerson]

welp its throw back thursday so i guess ill throw it back to 2014 when i had him.... from the University of Georgia HARRIS ENGLISH

 

[FL4WL3SS]

Good pick, was looking at him at my spot.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

The putter scares the crap out of me, but I'll still give ADAM SCOTT a try.

 

[Average Reds]

Had both Scott and English on my second round list. Nice picks.

If English ever lives up to his talent, he's a top 5 golfer. He had a maddening inability to close last year.

 

[cshea]

I'm not sure exactly when he switched, but Scott has been decent to start the year. He's made 5 global full field starts since the 2016 season began, 4 top 10's including two 2's.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Plus he's really handsome

 

[Average Reds]

"Help me @teddykgb, you are my only hope ..."

 

[teddykgb]

KEVIN NA

 

[TFP]

Yeah he was at the top of my list. Surprised he lasted this long.

 

[4 6 3 DP]

Na is a good pick. Was him or Sergio with the second, I may regret my choice.

 

[Average Reds]

Can't believe that BILL HAAS is still available.

 

[TFP]

Fuck those were my two guys. Gimme a couple mins.

 

[TFP]

DANNY LEE

 

[FL4WL3SS]

Just fed the baby. Need to go take a shit and think about my pick.

 

[ezemerson]

I looked at Na and Lee very hard at my pick, but i am still spiteful of Na from a couple years ago when he cost me the title cuz he got injured

 

[Zomp]

A duplicate in the first round may be a record

This made me chuckle.
