I thought about the NYG Smith, but I think Nicks & Manningham will cut into his catches next year.

That was a soild pick Ducky!

Lock of the Century levels!
The only level I see this being a bad pick is the fact that you drafted his second go to weapon who is a recpetion laggard in the 2nd round. That's could be the kiss of death for Rivers.

Interesting pick, feels a little early especially with you already having Gore in tow and no WRs. Was eyeing him at the end of round3 if he slid that far.

We'll see where he goes in other drafts. I was back and forth here, but ultimately decided the drop off from Forte' to the RBs available next round more than the drop off from the WRs available now and then. There's a good chance that there will be RBs available next round that will do very well if you get the right one...such as Miami and NYG. There were other backs that looked interesting but don't get squat for receptions. I expect the Bears line to be better next year and Forte played injured most of the season. He was a first round pick last year. I expect the truth is somewhere between this year and his rookie season.The WRs I was looking at have some question marks. The guys in front of me cleaned out the tier. I don't think Gore was a factor since I still had a RB slot open that will start.

You want me to hold the draft so you can change any of your other picks?

Love this pick...I'm expecting he'll be a nice value play in pprs this year.

Maybe Twilight will step in with a few stats. Seems like a strong TE is key to success in these leagues. They definately went early and often this year. Every year we wonder when Gonzo's production will start to decline. Betting against it declining seems to a winning trend.

yeah, hard to argue with 80 receptions in a stable environment that shouldn't change much next year...should have an easier schedule too.Not sexy, but a safe survivor play.

I've won 4 of these things and my TE's have been the following:SSl3 2007 - Gates onlyPDSL2 2009 - Witten onlySSL1 2008 - Vernon Davis and Anthony Fasano and LJ SmithQSL 2005 - two complete scrubs.IMO an elite TE gives you a large advantage at a position over 50% of the league

Speaking of which, I think you easily have had the best draft so far. There are two guys out there that if they slip will put you in a dominate position.

color me even more lukewarm than Hucks - and we both live in Pohonix.......BUT Boldin is STILL under contract for the 2010 season and no one is offering enought to pry him loose for the Cardinals who would trade him based on the injuries and contract situation especially with the development of Early Doucet this year and Breaston last year......and if he stays and Leinart is throwing to all of them rzr you are going to regret that pick

WHY NOT?1) The guys checking via phone or other app would have it easier, and
2) Some of the BS comments or those edging too close to suggestions (false or otherwise) should be in a separate thread.......I don't mind talking about the picks, players or strategies.....drafters opinions help this be a better draft for everyone.....but should NOT be in the pick thread

Holy chit you're catching some breaks. This is second round value based on the rest of the draft. If I had known he would make it past the 2/3 turn, I would had gone a different direction in the 2nd.
