What the hell? You picked Favre in the 4th and Kerry Collins in the 9th!?!?!?? Crazy!!!

If Collins is going in the 9th round, then Favre should be picked in the 11th, at the earliest. You made up for the horrible, horrible, horrible pick of Favre in the 4th with the great steal of Collins in the 9th.

You're 1st pick is good, 2nd pick is meh, and 3rd could be a great steal in the 3rd if TO doesn't get distracted and has a good season.

I hate Chris Brown in the 5th with a passion. Your 4th and 5th rounders are just terrible picks, one of the worst I've seen in a while. Burleson was a pretty good pick in the 6th...Shockey is decent value, but then Vanderjact in the 8th....no!

Vanderjact before Kerry Collins, whaaaaaaaat??


I'm no Clark, but I give this a D.

I took Tiki Barber b/c having two good RBs is important and QBs/WRs not as important. The next five players picked Ahman and Trent Green, Portis, Moss and Torry Holt. So that's about the best of what was left.

I think TO is a pretty good 3rd rd. pick b/c even tho he's a headache off the field he always performs well and had the second most TDs (I think) for receivers last year.

As for Favre...well I needed a QB at that point and the next ones picked were Marc Bulger, Drew Brees and Kerry Collins (by me). So all the better guys were already taken. Favre puts up good numbers every year....last season he threw for 4,000 yards and 36 TDs.

Chris Brown...I admit I didn't really know what I was doing w/ this pick but I wanted another RB b/c they're so important and the talent level of WRs had dropped significantly so that everyone left was around the same type of player....so yea, I took CB...no better options that I could think of/see.

Nate Burleson....well now I needed another WR and this guy was all I could find. I know I can't go only by last season's stats but he had 9 TDs and 1,000 yards while being the #2 man on that team. Now Moss is gone but yea, that could hurt him as well as help him....

Jeremy Shockey continues the theme of best on draft board but interestingly, I was undecided on who to take and then my time ran out and Yahoo gave me the highest player left, which was Shockey.

Vanderjagt...hmm no comment lol...but he is a good kicker and I was just trying to fill that position...he tore it up for me two seasons ago but last season dropped off a little bit...kickers get decent pts and the Colts are a high scoring team.

As for Kerry Collins, Larry Fitzgerald, Rod Smith and Travis Henry....clearly I rule on finding the late round steals.

Jets D....I needed a D and theirs was very good last season IIRC and they just added Ty Law.

Donte Stallworth....lol no comment again, I dunno...
Eli Manning, same thing pretty much.
I hear Mike Anderson is supposed to get a lot of red zone time this season.

But anyway, I'd like to hear why Brett Favre was a bad pick.

Favre was a bad pick because he pretty much equals many of the other QBs that will be available in the later rounds. You even proved that when you picked Kerry Collins in the 9th. I admire that you are going by your own rankings, which would have Favre ranked very high, but the consensus is that Collins, Bulger, and some others will be better Fantasy QB's than Favre. Find a solid WR there instead of Favre, and either pick up Favre in a later round (7-9), or hope for a steal which you got (Collins in the 9th).

Also, instead of Barber, I would have gone with Moss and picked RB in the 3rd.

[/ QUOTE ] TO and Moss are pretty even at this point. Both could put up huge numbers or blow up completely (though neither one really ever has). If you can get one of them in the third round they are a huge steal.

I'm not real big on Tiki this year, but as a second RB I don't think you can really go wrong.

Collins will have a better year than Favre. Collins will get more shots and be in more shootouts. Favre is aging and starting to slip.
