I love everything except your QB situation. Well, I think you could find a better kicker too, but you can worry about that later.

What players do you suggest taking around that area? More specfically, what areas needs to be addressed?

You really could have used another receiver. Chambers is a subpar #2 guy.

Every position? You can get a quality D and K in the last two rounds always. There are a handful of good D and K that are being undervalued this year. As a result, you should just load up at every skill O position so you have a ton of depth for when the inevitable injuries that occur during the year.

Sorry to flood the forum, but these are my last two [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] So far I've been sitting back and picking up the leftovers on TE and D's. I'd like to target Vernon Davis since I'm a SF homer and think he will have a big season, but he seems to be going 7 or 8 round sometimes which seems too high.


Here is the first, I picked 8th

1. (8) RB - Rudi Johnson - Cin
2. (13) RB - Travis Henry - Den
3. (28) WR - TJ Housh... - Cin
4. (33) WR - Marques Colston - NO
5. (48) WR - Andre Johnson - Hou
6. (53) QB - Jon Kitna - Det
7. (68) RB - Cadillac Williams - TB
8. (73) WR - Deion Branch - Sea
9. (88) TE - Chris Cooley - Was
10. (93) RB - Jerious Norwood - Atl
11. (108) RB - Brandon Jackson - GB
12. (113) WR - Kevin Curtis - Phi
13. (128) RB - Lendale White - Ten
14. (133) D - Jacksonville
15. (148) K - Jason Hanson - Det

This draft did not go as wellas the last one posted. First, I completely spazzed and forgot to draft a backup QB. Made a few huge reaches...absolutely hate the Cooley pick and don't really like the Branch pick either.


This draft is the first for my actual $ leagues. I picked 10th, and we start Qb, 2rb, 3wr, te, d, k. I'm absolutely loaded at RB, a little weak at WR and QB

1. (10) RB - Rudi Johnson - Cin
2. (11) RB - Brian Westbrook - Phi
3. (30) RB - Travis Henry - Den
4. (31) WR - Marques Colston - NO
5. (50) WR - Donald Driver - GB
6. (51) RB - Ronnie Brown - Mia
7. (70) WR - Darrell Jackson - SF
8. (71) QB - Jon Kitna - Det
9. (90) RB - Jamal Lewis - Cle
10. (91) WR - Bernard Berrian - Chi
11. (110) QB - Brett Favre - GB
12. (111) WR - Kevin Curtis - Phi
13. (130) TE - Randy McMichael - StL
14. (131) D - Seattle
15. (150) K - Jason Hanson - Det

As I said, I'm stacked at RB. Rudi, Westbrook, and Henry combo is pretty hard to beat. I think I would have picked up Henry almost no matter what, but 9 receivers had been taken, so no matter what I wouldn't have a top tier guy.

Colston seemed like an easy choice, Boldin, Walker, and Moss seemed to be the only others worth considering there. Driver was an easy choice in the 5th since those 3 + Evans, Burress, and Andre Johnson were gone.

I was already set at RB, but Ronnie Brown being left seemed ridiculous. Amazingly Caddillac, Benson, and Thomas Jones were all still available as well [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

By the 7th, DJax was about all that was left. I was praying for Calvin Johnson to fall there, because I'd honestly feel safer with him as an every week 3rd guy, but he was taken 2 spots prior. Edwards, Cotchery, Stallworth, and Branch were then taken.

I was targeting Kitna from the start and luckily he was still there. I think people are a little more high on him in my other two leagues, so I may have to figure something else out there.

Lewis in the 9th and in the 10th Berrian was pretty much best available receiver. Actually, Henderson was taken two spots after I took Berrian. I completely forgot about Henderson but plan to try and target him late because he showed big play flashes when he was given time last year. He should be their legit #2 this year.

Rest of it is pretty blah. I'm pretty much going to have to juggle D's week to week I think, but I'm hoping McMichael can put up some numbers.

Love the Cooley pick. I have him a top 3 TE. Branch is a good pick as well. He is the number 1 on a good offense that had a down year last year. He is going later than he should.

This draft is the first for my actual $ leagues. I picked 10th, and we start Qb, 2rb, 3wr, te, d, k. I'm absolutely loaded at RB, a little weak at WR and QB

1. (10) RB - Rudi Johnson - Cin good
2. (11) RB - Brian Westbrook - Phi good
3. (30) RB - Travis Henry - Den wtf, people pay money and don't know henry is a starting RB or what? seriously. Quite a steal.
4. (31) WR - Marques Colston - NO good
5. (50) WR - Donald Driver - GB wtf again. I'm sure this was about WR15 picked. I have Driver at 6 and Colston at 8 so solid start there.
6. (51) RB - Ronnie Brown - Mia jesus. wtf again.
7. (70) WR - Darrell Jackson - SF I'm not that high on Jackson but a good pick none the less
8. (71) QB - Jon Kitna - Det good
9. (90) RB - Jamal Lewis - Cle good
10. (91) WR - Bernard Berrian - Chi good
11. (110) QB - Brett Favre - GB good
12. (111) WR - Kevin Curtis - Phi good

Wow, that is sick. 20 RB's have to be played and Caddy is the only one outside the top 20. Not sure what those guys are smoking. I would have a tough decision between Brown and Benson. You are going to have to trade an RB for a WR I think. You have 4 top 20 guys so I'm sure there are teams that will need some help. It is a pretty sick team tho.
