[Jeff Pasquino]

Missing a lot of elite talent.

No stud RB, no stud WR. Ouch.

 

[Fallerjw]

Did you trade out of the first round?

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

Would give you a C. Not earth shattering team. Could be better/worse.

 

[BassNBrew]

Did you trade out of the first round?

I was going to ask the same question.

 

[bicycle_seat_sniffer]

grant/gates/maroney as your first 3 picks?

not good

I hope that we haven't scared him off - but the draft was pretty weak.

Hopefully things improve for him going forward.

You didn't scare me off. I didn't play last year and I am trying to get back into it. I appreciate all the comments. I didn't think it was very good team either but I wanted to get some opinions. My draft isn't until June so I have time to get it right. In fact I have a mock tomorrow morning so I can work on getting better.

RBs last longer than you think.Get a good PPR RB to start, especially if you have a first half of the draft pick.Then load up on WRs.

good commentary thusfar....and cudos to you for bringing the mock to our attention and asking for feedback

a couple points:

-12 team X 16 rounds....192 players wil be selected....

MRyan and SSlayton are not in my top 200---in redrafts of this size, only a few rookie RB's and maybe a top WR or 2 are possibly worth drafting---otherwise, stick to the more experienced

-when you have a McNabb/Kitna combo, skip QB3---you need more depth @WR

-Grant is servicable @RB2...not RB1--I assume you took him 1.10?

-from the 10, RMoss, LJ or Lynch were better selections....I doubt all 3 were gone

keep us posted on the next one

I tend to pile up on RB's early don't I. I did it again in my second mock. I also took a couple rookies as one of you told me to stay away from. But, I do think it was a better overall draft.Second Mock

McFadden and Mendenhall are worthy---I said a few rookie RB's are worth a roster spot, and these 2 are the top 2....Ryan and Slayton are not worth a spot in a redraft

RB depth is OK---but not at the expense of lesser quality starters at several other positions (QB-TE-WR3)
