Greg Kellogg does this routine for his blogtalkradio show. I thought it was pretty challenging. I figured some here might want to give it a whirl, maybe we could see who gets the most right after Monday's game.

Surprised no replies yet. I'll explain mine maybe that'll generate some debate or thought on other/better choices.

Busts are the top 10 at each position and that was tough. Many of them my initial reaction was "no, they'll all do well".

Titans have been tough on QBs so I picked Rodgers

Cortland Finnegan has been playing at a super high level. The Titans don't matchup per se but he is often on the opposing team's top WR. That thinking, I chose Greg Jennings. Next I jumped down to CB and am figuring teams will just ignore Cortland soon(respect like many top CBs) and throw elsewhere, so if that theory holds true he won't be so good for IDP scoring.

Portis was mostly about being impressed with the Steelers run D.

Shiancoe has done well lately but, I guess I'm just least a fan of him in that top 10.

Longwell, short of emailing Mike Herman that K one is a shot in the dark.

Kerry doesn't make many mistakes and they run so much, I figure the Packers D won't be so good for FF this week.

Dewayne White-I wrestled with the notion of all those DL and like em' all. When in doubt, pick a Lion to fail I guess.

DJ has been super, I don't think he's a top 5 LB. He's gotta come back to earth a little bit.

For booms, thinking of a player NOT on the list that will do well was simply running thru cheatsheets in my head til I thought of someone.

Not many QBs left, Cassel has been throwing to Moss the last couple weeks.

If Willie plays, he's probably best. Same with Cotch.

Alge has been getting a few red zone targets.

I was surprised Bironas and Vandenbosch hadn't been selected yet.

Favre against Bills D, worth a shot.

Ed Reed, surprised still there.

Demeco hasn't been as good (IMO) as other years. I've been waiting for him to get fired up and I think ADP just might do that to him.
