The NFL Draft is now behind us, which means there are still a few weeks left until the season starts and—more importantly—a few weeks left until fantasy football begins. With fantasy sports being such a significant cultural phenomenon, we here at TRW decided to do something a little different to keep our minds sharp: a fantasy pedalboard challenge. The rules were simple: eight players, ten rounds and the whole world of guitar pedals to build one gig-worthy board to rule them all. There were a few caveats though: David A. Evans Eric Tischler Fletcher Stewart Ian Garrett Nicholas Kula HO  nce a pedal is picked, it is permanently removed from the pool H Choices must be actual pedals and not just effects units H Big multi-fx pedals (like the Line 6 M9) are strictly forbidden Those participating in the draft included eight of TRW’s finest editorial contributors: Phillip Dodge, David A. Evans, Ian Garrett, Sam Hill, Nicholas Kula, Yoel Kreisler, Fletcher Stewart and Eric Tischler. I, Nick Rambo, acted as moderator and will provide some round-by-round insight and analysis below.
