Sixth pick is Number six? Sev.i adopts "Revolutionary Draft Strategy" after One Crazy Night in Amsterdam.

So what we're going to do is we're going to draft players by the number they wear, okay. So lets say I have pick number 14. I'm going to be thinking 'okay, who wears number 14, that's who I want to draft.' We're so stupid! The answer was their all along and I never saw it.
These were the words of Magnum Sev.i owner Sevag when he revealed to reporters in the Netherlands his new "Revolutionary Draft Strategy" after a night in Amsterdam early Monday Morning. Emphatic and enthusiastic about the new plan, a more than slightly baked Sev.i was more than happy to discuss his plan in detail while munching on Doritos and drinking a two litter bottle of sprite. So who is Sevag going to take with the sixth pick?
Jay Cutler. We're taking Jay Cutler because he wears number six. This is soooo easy!!! How could I have been so stupid all these years!! We're gonna win it all man!
For his second round pick, pick number 18, Sevag said that they would be selecting Peyton Manning. This immediately posed two problems. First, Magnum would have drafted two quarterbacks with his first two picks, which is not an ideal way to build a team. Second, Peyton may not even be available because Prime Time owner Ara more than likely will elect to retain his rights and select him as his keeper. Sevag didn't seem to understand nor like this too much.
No. He can't keep him. We have the eighteenth pick. We are suppose to get him there.
Sevag fell asleep alongside a curb in the red light district shortly after this question, but did mumble in his slumber that picks 30, 42, and 54 would be Zac Stacy, tight end Charles Clay, and Bucs linebacker Levonte David, even though the AFFL doesn't allow for defensive players to get drafted.
Back in Los Angeles, reporters caught up to Sev.i co-Manager Danny and asked him about his thoughts on the draft strategy. He seemed to be unfamiliar with the plan, but admitted that they could go that route at some point in the draft. Some in the media began to question whether team Magnum was indeed taking this draft seriously or just treating it as some sort of astrological fantasy football horoscope. Danny took offense to the notion and lashed out.
It's all a numbers game. That's what you don't realize. Now get off my lawn. I got diapers to change. Mr. Mom bitch.
Keep an eye on Sev.i during the draft. If his first pick isn't Calvin Johnson at 6, you'll know the numbers game could be in play. If tarot cards and palm reading starts to take place, you'll know the strategy will be in place for certain. Should be fun to watch.
