Ghost of Bill Walsh

1.03- RB Maurice Jones-Drew (Jax)- RB3

2.14- WR Anquan Boldin (ARZ?-TBD)- WR11

3.03- QB Tom Brady (NE)- QB3

4.14- RB Darren McFadden (Oak)- RB25

5.03- WR Antonio Bryant (TB)- WR24

6.14- RB Lendale White(Tenn)- RB31

7.05- WR Donald Driver(G.B.)- WR39

QB-Brady

RB- MJD, D. McFadden, L.White

WR- A. Boldin, A. Bryant, D.Driver

1.03- Maurice Jones-Drew- Taylor's gone so MJD will get his chance to shine. I think since he's the main ball carrier now he'll show he's capable of what people that he was capable of.

2.14- Anquan Boldin- His best chances of repeating last years numbers are to stay in Arizona.Don't know if that'll happen. Think he wants to go somewhere and be that teams outright #1.He's got the skill to be that but the all important thing is where he lands.

3.03- Tom Brady- Took him a little early but Toads woulda took him right after me. Yeah he's a big risk with the knee but when he's on he's definitely a top 3 QB. The Pats must feel he's ok , they let Cassel go.

4.14- Darren McFadden- not too good a year in his rookie campaign. Hopefully he's adjusted to the NFL now and as the number 1.04 pick last year you gotta think Al Davis is gonna give him the ball. Let's see what he does with it.

5.03- Antonio Bryant- Hopefully his head's screwed on right, if last years numbers are any indication he does. Now the big question mark with him is who's gonna throw him the ball. No doubt in my mine he'll be their go-to-guy, just hope the QB's competent enough to get it to him.Might suffer a slight drop in numbers.

6.14- Lendale White- Was a top 20 back with 15 td's last year. I'll take that for my #3 back, just hoping his catches increase some but with Chris Johnson around he may not. He still had 200 carries last year.

7.03- Donald Driver- Jennings is the go to guy in Green Bay's pass oriented offense but Driver finished last year with 74 catches/1,012 yds/5 td's. In a league with 16 teams he'll do as a #3 receiver.

If you are able to include the teams on a progressive pick by pick basis....there is no place that I'm aware of that does that.

Maybe a color coded deal, building the teams....round by round?

I'm looking at the teams so far. They're all about same....no glaring inequities or such.....a lot of teams are scoring about the same on the Draft Dominator program....vanilla type stuff.

I really have a hard time talking about my team, as in ho-hum. The point is it's not my team. It's just the best team acquired by a series of decision at that time and space....an Einstein type time/space warp occurance.

The only thing that makes any sense is:

1) The scoring system. and

2) The team mixes by player/position/round.

To justify any team as being subjectively or objectively superior is irrelevant.

But, at least we aren't glomming up the draft thread with nonsense.

Agreed, the psychics in these draft threads are almost always proven wrong. The luck can be overcome though with carful planning. Sure you can get screwed with bye weeks, but with that known problem, drafting ANYBODY in the first 7 rounds from the same team is VERY dangerous. Doing so, is at your OWN peril. Finding depth across positions is CRITICAL. When you're thin at a position, you better make that pick COUNT. No second chances on whiffs.

Bloom is in #3, not in #1.Agreed about the bye weeks.... a major consideration. I'd almost add that drafting a mix of seven players and having major conference overlaps is dangerous. If you get a bunch of players from AFC West, for instance, there is a pretty good correlation that you'll have a bye week conflict.

Drafting Rookies (see Crabtree, Michael) onto your roster places the bye week effect into that \"unknown realm," too. Risky business. The potential for reward has to out weigh the risk.

Here's the quote from Bloom's post into the #3 discussion thread (he drafted out of the #16 slot):

1.16 Randy Moss WR

2.01 Jason Witten TE

3.16 Kurt Warner QB

4.01 Jonathan Stewart RB

So far, pretty much right on target. I was never thinking of taking a RB at the 1-2 turn, I think it's too important in this setup to get a stud WR1 and a stud TE. Moss is getting Brady back, should be good for a bump since Cassel's deep ball was the weakest part of his game. Witten doesn't have to deal with TO's bellyachin anymore.

I accomplished my objectives - get the stud WR, TE, QB that this format (PPR, start 3 WR, 2 PPR for TE, 6 pts per QB TD) calls for, and give myself maximum flexibility for the later rounds so I dont get in a situation where I feel like I have to take players at a certain position, which can be a real kick in the berries when you're at the turn and you can't take advantage of value picks.

He's got a challenge, being in the #16 draft slot.His analysis of what it takes pretty much agrees with my take:

1) Stud TE to take advantage of the scoring.

2) Hold even, or barely even at the RB position.

3) Load the WR starters.....

4) Get the best QB you can afford, and

5) Pray for no injuries
