I'd be looking at one of the TEs at this point thinking they wount last back to me. I've never done a rookie draft though so I don't know the value of rookie TEs. Seems like Allen is the best in this class as of now but the combine could bump Charles to that spot (at lest thats what Kiper/ McShay indicated IIRC).

Rudolf was the 1st TE drafted in either of my rook drafts last year and he went in the 3rd. This is pretty much par for the course when you have early dynasty drafts because it is so hard for TE's to make a 1st year impact. Pettigrew went at 2.08 a couple years prior while Gresham went at 2.01. Usually you can get good TE's later on if you need one the best strategy could be to load up on late picks by trading down and snag a bunch of high upside TE's. Problem is it usually takes at least a year to develop (Gresham) sometimes longer...Shawn Nelson was a late 2nd rounder a few years back as well and he never developed so that dude just ate a roster spot for a while...

I hope this doesn't derail this thread but how would drafting IDP rookies effect this. Would TEs go even later or is there no effect?

I don't play IDP, so I'm not sure. I would imagine top MLB's. WLB's and some pass rushers typically go before TE's so they would be even later

at this point in the draft, i would consider one of the TEs with the most upside (obviously the landing spot really matters)

i see a consistant Top 3, but will have to wait until i do a little more research

for now, Pead.

 
Went with Orson Charles here. I think this is a good spot for one of the TE's. I've got Charles and Fleener ranked fairly close, Allen 3rd. I still don't see feature back potential with Pead.

 
If IDP everyone gets moved back a few spots. LB'ers get picked first and by the early 3rd maybe 2-3 will be taken and maybe one d lineman, but then maybe only one IDP. Depends on talent.

I saw Willis go in the top 5 in one draft but most years they don't go until the 2nd round. On average 2 are probably taken before 3.01 so you would just push everyone back 2-4 spots..

 
Cyrus Gray, anyone?

To answer the IDP question, in recent years, I have seen the consensus top LBers like Willis, McClain, go in the late first (of course a lot depends on your league's scoring). Last year, when there was no clear stud LB like those guys, von miller was a late 2nd.

Its a tricky pick because you can justify spending the high picks on the willis' but you can almost also always fing the Ryan Kerrigans in the 4th or 5th round.
