Did Adam get enough for the 2nd pick?

A few days ago the Carolina Falcons parted with the number 1 pick for the number 5 pick overall a 2nd rounder and a 5th rounder... today Adam parted with the number two pick without getting a 1st rounder or even a 2nd rounder he got a 3rd 4th and 5th a very cheap price looking at the Falcon trade and now his first pick won't come until the 23rd overall.
I don't know if he has a plan or not but I think he's built himself a hole before his franchise has even been named that may take a while to get out of.

A King's Ransom

Dylan Gibson has dealed his way to aquire the 2nd pick overall in the 2009 GFFL Draft he now has the #1 and #2 picks. He traded his 3rd, 4th, and remaining 5th round pick to Adam Dickenson for the 2nd pick. Dylan will not have another pick until the 6th round but a backfield of Peterson and let's say Turner would probably make up for that.
Here's a look at what the possible backfield for the Kings may look like....

Could Carolina Falcons make another trade?

This is pure speculation and I have heard nothing from Brandon but regarding the last post it may make sense for Brandon to attempt to make a trade with Adam. The Carolina Falcons make sense as coming off their trade with the Kings they have an extra 2nd rounder and an extra 5th rounder making their picks expendable. The Ducks sent a 5th rounder to move up two spots with the Kings so one would assume it would take a 5th for the Carolina Falcons to swap 1st rounders with Adam and thus have the 2nd pick in the draft and 2 2nd round picks allowing him to draft his favorite player Michael Turner and allowing Adam to take a QB and get an extra 5th rounder for it.

"I might take a quarterback"

Owner Adam Dickenson when asked who he was considering with the 2nd pick by Dylan responded by saying "I might take a quarterback" If Adam Dickenson took a quarterback at the 2 spot it would be a shocking pick which leads some to believe he would be willing to trade out of the two spot for an additional pick to the back of the 1st round if he really is considering taking a quarterback. The Leading QB's to warrant a 1st round pick would be Brees coming off his huge yardage season, Brady back healthy one year removed from throwing 50 touchdowns, and the always elite qb Peyton Manning.

Thoughts on a possible 2 day fantasy draft

As the league strives to be more NFL like with everything we do, I wanted to get the league members thoughts on having a 2 day draft come summer. With rounds 1-6 taking place Day 1 with 2 minutes max time per pick then Day 2 with rounds 7-16 with a minute for each pick.
So leave me your thoughts in the comments or just tell them to me and if you have any other ideas let me know.

Current '09 GFFL 1st round Draft Order
1. Kings (From CF)
2. Adam
3. Ducks(From Kings)
4. Purple Cobras
5. Carolina Falcons (From Kings)
6. Princesses
7. Christian
8. Wiener Dogs
9. Unbeaten Gators
10. Pandas
11. Rayz
12. Panthers

Kings continue trading land 1st pick

Brandon Buck owner of the Carolina Falcons franchise had been trying to move the 1st pick since he was rewarded it and after a number of trades fell through he finally found a taker that could offer what he wanted. The Kings will be sending their 1st (5th overall) 2nd (22nd overall) and a 5th rounder for the Carolina Falcons 1st and 9th rounders.

Come June Dylan Gibson will no doubt take Adrian Peterson the soon to be 24 year old stud who rushed for a league high 1,760 yards on 363 attempts last season while scoring 10 touchdowns in just his 2nd season.

Ducks and Kings pull off draft pick trade.

The Ducks have traded up in the draft sending their 1st (5th overall) and a 5th rounder to the Kings for the 1st (3rd overall). Owner Pam Gibson is more than likely trying to move up the draft ladder to ensure she will be able to draft the Panther superstar DeAngelo Williams. The young runner had a breakout season last year rushing for 1,515 yards on 273 carries averaging a strong 5.5 yards per carry while scoring 20 total touchdowns.
