Smells like chicken
LOLhow did drafting him in every league in 07 work out for ya?Aaah, I love these memories.... I took MORE heat for this pick than ANY draft pick I can remember. Having already committed my 3rd round pick to a QB, I COULDN'T risk NOT getting my top rated RB. Some say he would have slid to the 4th, I just couldn't risk it, besides, I landed T Jones in the 4th. I'll await my detractors...Like your QBs and think Redman is under rated this year. Guess we'll find out on Saturday. Agree with your A.DWill was a huge whiff. I like your other RB picks. I see three RB2s here C at best.QB - Romo (10), Redman (7), B Johnson (10)
Well, I grabbed Romo early and have him as the #2QB in the league next year. Backing him up is what I feel to be the starting QB in Atlanta. 10 TDs and 5ints in the last 5 games, which included a total crapper on the road against a hot Bucs team. Throw that game out, 4 games, 10 tds, 3 ints, 1050 yards... WOW! B Johnson protects my Dallas QB.
GRADE - A
HB - DWill (9), T Jones (5), Rudi (8), Leon (5)
Well, I took alot of heat for the DWill pick. I wanted Romo in the 3rd, so I didn't want to risk losing my #1 rated RB at the time. For me, it was already decided Romo/Dwill or DWill/Romo. Now if I knew for sure that he would have slipped to 4.7, I obviously would have done things differently. T Jones at 4.7 is GREAT VALUE with that improved Jet ground game. Rudi at 6.7 - I had Berrian penciled in here and backed out when I couldn't pass up what I hear to be a healthy Rudi in the 6th. Before the injury, guy was a first round pick. He's aging, so we'll see if this works out. Leon in the 13th.. okay, I'll say it again.. value AND insurance. I think this group has good depth actually.
GRADE - B-
WR - Randy (4), HinesWard (6), VincentJackson (9), Patten (9), Hardy (?), DJack (8), Chatman (8)
I couldn't turn down Randy Moss this year. Even with a 20% dip in production, still puts him #1 right? Unbelievable! Ward as the WR28 was WR28 last year and missed 3 games, so I think that's a decent spot for him. Considered VDavis here, but banked on Scheffler making it back. VJax was beastly last year, not a great WR3, but if they pick up where they left off, he'll outperform WR44. 18 rec 300 and 2 TDs in the final 3 games definitely stood out for me. Patten came up huge last year and on the Saints offense, I'll take a veteran. Hardy, DJack (thrilled about how late I scored him) and Chatman all have upside, but I'm not sure what else.
GRADE - B
TE - Crumpler (6), Z Miller (5)
Crossin fingers that Vince takes to Crumpler the way Vick did. Like what I saw from Miller last year. In the end, I considred a 3rd tight end over Romo's backup, but with what was left, I decided to ride with these two guys. Decent, but not good.
GRADE - C-
PK - Gramatica (9), Prater (8)
Saints offense and Denver's offense.
GRADE - B-
Dst - Vikes (8) Jets (5)
Love the Vikes this year. Jets added some playmakers as well.
GRADE - A-
OVERALL - B -- Decent squad with good bye week results. There were a couple times I turned down a player from a team I already had which is a MUST in this format before bye weeks are released.
I think you were conservative in grading your WRs and were a grade too low on your TEs.
Overall you did well despite reaching 2 rounds for DWill.
BTW he has been rather studly this season.
