It's that time again. The Landing Stickers take on The Box Checkers as Nee and Sonnone split the Florida State roster in half to see who can assemble the better squad in this draft-style exercise. The two take turns in the snake-style draft format in a helpful exercise to gauge how we value certain positions and players on the roster. One takeaway from this year's draft: FSU's depth seems to be the best it's been in a decade.
