[Sledge]

Welcome to the first ever Rookie Draft of the 2008 Buffalo Bills Simulation Football League. We hope you all can watch the draft through its entirety. Today we will be holding Round 1, and each team will have 10 minutes to conduct the submission of their pick. In an interesting sidenote, we have had 20 trades for our 24 pick round one, including eight of those trades concerning picks in the top ten.
