Draft Strategy critique (1 Viewer)

I wasn't sure if this was Shark Pool or Assistant Coach talk so if I got it wrong feel free to move the topic over.

Below I've included everything I could in terms of detail, I figured more information can only help. Basically I will be using Draft Dominator with the scoring/roster input as close to my league settings as possible. The one issue I will have that I had not considered before now is considering returners since that is not calculated in DD. I've included a mock draft I did within the program, noteworthy differences I made from the auto-draft feature was drafting Vincent Jackson over Drew Brees in the 2nd as it baffled me why it would suggest such when I have Rodgers and Michael Turner over Antonio Gates in the 5th as he seems to be considered overrated and an injury risk though this has left me weak at TE.

Draft is in a few hours and thought I'd bump in case I can get replies beforehand. My big question is how ADP is factored in Draft Dominator and how I should consider it when drafting with VBD using Draft Dominator. I did a final my team mock draft in DD:

If I get this team I'll be very happy, the only deviations I made was draft Mark Ingram ahead of a few players. The only thing I might change is not bothering with a second DL and using the last pick of the draft for some long shot like Terrel Owens.

Why are you not taking Foster or Peterson at #2? Isn't pretty much all wisdom everywhere to take a RB in the top 3 (Or 6) before even considering the other positions?

I think you should put that team and your scoring system in your signature and people will rate your team via PM.

Oh...and your social security number, name, address, and mothers maiden name while you're at it
