I know I probably won't get to name someone's team again next year, and if I do, that team probably won't be Aaron's. But if I DO get to name Aaron's team next year, I think I'll call them 'The Suspenders'.
Maybe I'm the only who noticed this (besides Aaron --- eventually), but he probably set some kind of record by drafting THREE players who were suspended at the time of the draft.
I'm guessing that, when we drafted, Aaron didn't know that Wes Welker had been suspended, since that only happened barely 24 hours earlier. And maybe he didn't know that Matt Prater had been suspended, either. And hey, it's usually a good strategy to stock your team with Broncos players, right?
On the other hand, I'm pretty sure he DID know about Ray Rice's suspension. Although (like all of us), he surely didn't know when he drafted Rice that Rice's suspension would be permanent.
Still. I expect it will be a long time before we see another draft where one guy drafts three suspended players --- in the fourth, fifth and (kicker!) tenth rounds. Well done, Aaron.
