Your last 3 picks - dynasty startup drafters (1 Viewer)

I think it's safe to say that most $ league owners drafting dynasty teams in April - June are comfortable through rounds 15-20. Later is where it gets interesting, and owners (especially in a dynasty league) tend show their strategy, in addition to maybe reaching for players they like for one reason or another.

I'd be interested to see what guys are doing with their last 3 or so picks. Who and something about why.

(include # of teams/rounds and don't post complete rosters/drafts)

Here's one I completed about a week ago.

12 teams / 23 rounds / no ppr

This team is WR heavy and overall very young.

21. J Dillard WR JAX

Couldn't pass on the value this late - and I really didn't need another WR, but I like him as much if not more than fellow rookie M Thomas. 2-3 year project player.

22. S. Rosenfels QB MN

T Jackson must have been a stud in practice, but while he's not terrible - he tends to look lost on Sundays. Rosen isn't a lock for the job, and certainly isn't a dynasty team building block - but there's a good chance he wins the job. Favre has to stay retired. QB3 with top 20 upside.

23. A. Foster RB HOU

This is a good example of what I'm looking for here. Foster could shock the world in TC and earn a back up RB / short yardage role OR get cut or placed on the PS. C Brown won't last a month and Moats is decent, but not a pounder. Foster is a long shot. Worst case he's the drop for a kicker.

:thumbdown:

 
We have a separate rookie draft but I just completed a 16 team, 38 player dynasty auction. This league is IDP so it might explain some of the depth available.

My last couple of selections were:

Matt Moore

Kregg Lumpkin

Adrian Arrington

Dante Rosario

Steve Johnson

Justin Forsett

 
Very surprised that Dillard fell that far in your draft.

12 Team PPR

22.06 258. Patoons Ingram, Jake NEP TE ® Wed May 6 8:50:41 a.m. ET 2009 Pick made based on Pre-Draft List

Reached quite a bit here because he wouldnt likely be drafted, but there is no TE in NE right now. Watson was supposed to be pretty solid, but he hasn't produced the past few years.

23.07 271. Patoons Schilens, Chaz OAK WR Wed May 6 3:05:31 p.m. ET 2009 Pick made based on Pre-Draft List

Love this kid. Schilens should start and I like him as a breakout WR this year in OAK.

24.06 282. Patoons Stuckey, Chansi NYJ WR Wed May 6 8:59:58 p.m. ET 2009 Pick made based on Pre-Draft List

Should win the #2 job in NY. Granted, he's the #3 passing option behind Cotchery and Keller, but he's being dismissed to quickly currently.

ETA the "why"

This one I know well.And looking for more "WHY" in general. Names are interesting, but inquiring minds want to know why...

 
2005 start up: (25 rounds)

24.06 - Rashard Lee

25.03 - James Mungro

25.07 - Todd Pinkston (immediate IR move just in case he came back strong)

2006 start up:

Hmm...got deleted from MFL for some reason

2007 start up: (24 rounds)

21.12 - James Jones

22.01 - Ben Troupe

23.08 - Jason Snelling

2008 start up: (26 rounds)

24.02 - Harry Douglas

25.11 - Paul Hubbard

26.02 - Taylor Mehlhaff

2008 start up: (24 rounds)

22.12 - Ben Obomanu

23.01 - John Beck

24.12 - Paul Hubbard

Hmm...James Jones and Harry Douglas look like only good ones...Douglas still on my roster in that league, and Jones was included in a deal with MBIII to get Wayne this offseason.

 
That's interesting ^ but I'm looking for more 09 dynasty drafts.

Anyone else? You can just name one or two if you don't want to share your secret sauce - due to upcoming drafts.

I thought this might be interesting - especially how some of these picks might match up to opinions here. Maybe not :yes:
