You can't draft me.

Thinking...

[KuroiXHF]

I was going to do Uvuvwevwevwe Onyetenyevwe Ugwemubwem Ossas, but I'm going to go with

Former US Senator from MA, Scott Brown

[zoraster]

Who could Mexico elect so that we'd have the Northern Hunkasphere?

[KuroiXHF]

Oh that's right. He is a NH resident now, but he was a senator from MA at the time.

[KuroiXHF]

I really don't think I'm quite behind. Elizabeth Warren is actually set to do really well. She's been the number one most fervent opponent of Trump, at least on camera, as far as politicians go.

First Three Rounds Ranking

The first three rounds contain 15% of the picks but probably contains the eventual nominees for both parties (excepting Trump) in like... 75% of cases, so evaluating those picks is the place I start.

1. Reck
2. Drench
3. KuroiXHF
4. Zoraster
5. Plague
6. Not_Mafia



Reck's top 3 of Booker, Gillibrand and Hickenlooper is EASILY the strongest trio. Drench's Sherrod Brown and Kamala Harris are strong though Ellison was a bad pick.

My picks at the turn are only strong in a certain scenario. Cuomo is a first round pick worthy person, but Pence is only good in a small minority of cases but then he is VERY good. Gillibrand would have been stronger, Harris may have been.

Kuroi's Warren pick is probably good enough to make up for his awful Blasio and The Rock picks. I'd put Warren over the trio of Klobucher, Duckworth and Gabbard (it's basically Klobucher vs. Warren) and DEFINITELY over Castro, Sanders and Kaine.

Plague's Klobucher pick is a solid first round. I'm not sure I agree with either Duckworth or Gabbard as top 3 picks but not a huge deal. Not_Mafia's strongest pick is Tim Kaine in the third round, which says a lot about his selections.
.

The Rest of the Draft

1. Zoraster
2. Reck
3. Drench
4. Not_Mafia
5. theplague
6. Kuroi

Arguably the less important ranking, rounds 4-20 I think I won pretty handily. O'Malley is a real potential candidate, so is Nelson. Paul Ryan doesn't seem so shiny right now, but is a real challenger should Trump not run for a second term.

Reck's rounds 4-9 are basically a version of my rounds 1-3: they target the possibility of someone other than trump winning: Kasich, Rubio, Romney, Paul. These are all unlikely scenarios, but later rounds are ALL unlikely.

Drench has some picks I like like Hassan, Tammy Baldwin. I don't think much of his last 10 picks other than potentially Jay Inslee and maybe Steve Bullock.

Not_Mafia had a pretty strong end. Perez (though less likely now that he's DNC chair), Masto, McCaliffe, Caroline Kennedy, Bob Casey, Al Franken are all very solid picks at their positions.

the plague's picks are pretty weak. Mark Cuban is worthy of drafting, but at like... round 12+, not round 4. Austin Peterson was a very early third party pick.

Kuroi..... basically picked Elizabeth Warren.

Overall

Understanding that my overall is weighted heavily toward earlier rounds being more important my ranking is:

1. Reckoner
2. Drench
3. Zoraster
4. Kuroi
5. theplague
6. Not_Mafia

So basically the top 3 pick ranking except I think my final 17 picks are enough to make up for the difference of Warren vs. Pence+Cuomo+Biden.
