Nope, that's everything.

Take Jermike or lose your league.

Brett Favre retired.

That Brady Quinn guy is really good.

Look for Brian Westbrook to lead the league in rushing.

Ben Tate is the RB to grab in Hou for redraft leagues.

At WR Sidney Rice should be looked at early in your draft.

Pair him up with Donnie Avery if you can.

I think that should be about all you need to know. Good Luck!

This is not a very productive post for they guy, but what else does the OP expect? I am sure guys on here have no problem answering more specific questions or respond to opinions, but a shotgun question like this more or less warrants this type of answer.

Why is it not the year to wait on a qb again?

 

[The Dynasty]

Finley should be taken in the first round. Probably 1.01

In fact I'd argue just the opposite. Even if you want a "stud" QB, you can wait for 4 or 5 to come off the board first and still be able to grab one.

 

[Cawbird]

1. Grab all Cle WR that you can

2. Stl will be a top D

3. Chris Johnson will become part of a full-blown RBBC this year

4. MJD, Gore, AP, Rice, Turner, S-Jax............see #3

5. Matt Leinart will be the #1 QB at the end of the year

6. Javon Walker has been "re-born" in Minnesota with Favre

7. Ben Tate is NOT on IR

8. Randy Moss just announced his retirement about 30 minutes before this post

9. Kickers are starting to fly in round 5

10. Pre-season means EVERYTHING!!!

Seriously...............every draft I have been in..........WR seem to really thin out quickly.

Start drinking heavily.

 

[LittlePhatty]

Anything else?

Avoid: Cutler, KolbTake: Stafford, Orton

Target Finley, Foster and Huggins with your first three picks, although Foster probably won't be available when your turn comes up in the second.

Agreed - there is a lot of acceptable mid level talent out there and you are likely to have to go second round to get a top 4.Over paying IMO unless your league counts QB completions.Can do almost as well pairing mid rnd QBs, leaving rnd 2 or 3 for RB or WR.

Finley won't be there in the first. he's been going in the recently created .5 round.

I think the argument is that you can get good WRs and RBs in later rounds and spend an early pick on a QB who should perform a lot better than a mid-round QB. Arian Foster could compete with a guy taken in the first round, but a mid-round QB (after the top ones are all gone) will have trouble competing, even in a QBBC. I know Foster is moving up boards but you could get a top QB and WR and get him as well.You can always find value later to make up for taking something else earlier, but this year seems to have really good quarterbacks coupled with intriguing later options at RB and WR.

Had 2 drafts since last Friday. Observation: Throw out any ranking that suggests you'll get Foster in the 11th, or Spiller/Best in the 7th-8th. They can no longer be taken at a bargain and each went in the 3rd/4th of my drafts. At this point you're better off planning for the attractive vet RBs who are falling because of it [barber, Addai went at good value in my drafts]. I'm not suggesting Clinton Portis will produce like he did playing for Shanahan several years ago, but seeing him around in the 8th-9th of these drafts seems strange given his prior production running for Shanahan [how he was used, etc].

I went the QBBC route this year. I would have loved to grab a QB in round 4-5, but all the top-tier ones were taken by then. I ended up picking up Cutler, Ryan, and Orton in later rounds. Hopefully amongst those three I can field a decent starter each week.While there *are* a goodly number of decent RBs available in the middle rounds this year, I don't particularly think the draft is so chock full of decent WRs after the first 10-15 go off the board.

Jesus came back to walk the earth and his new name is Jermichael Finley.

Arian Foster is his slighty less powerful sidekick.
