Conversation in the XAT was about past drafts (I was ribbing Jmaine about something) but GB mentioned it would be fun to look back at all time best drafts in league history.
I'm game to join the pod, help do some research, and provide the history I remember.....anyone else?
Even if you're not on the pod, it'd be cool to have some help looking through old files.
