If team 6 could have taken one more starting RB they would be looking VERY good:1 C. Portis, WAS RB 2 M. Harrison, IND WR 3 M. Bennett, MIN RB 4 J. Horn, NOR WR 5 T. Heap, BAL TE 6 S. McNair, TEN QB 7 J. Smith, JAC WR With Brown and Jones around so long I don't know why he didn't grab one.

I'm liking karabell's team the most right now. if he can pick up another solid WR, he should be tough to beat. his team through 8:1 E. James, IND RB 2 F. Taylor, JAC RB 3 C. Johnson, CIN WR 4 T. Barber, NYG RB 5 M. Bulger, STL QB 6 J. Walker, GNB WR 7 J. Plummer, DEN QB 8 T. Minor, MIA RB

I've been liking this team and Engel's, but I can't say I'd be thrilled with Plummer as QB1.

Fargas ahead of Wheatley? What's this expert know that I don't...?

He's got bulger, too. with those 2, his QB play should be decent week to week.

With addition of Dunn I like 6 and 3 best so far. 6 has got a top RB, WR, TE, and QB. Not bad at all. 3 is just loaded at RB.Team 6 is looking better to me the more I look at them.Team 5 started strong, but had been fading.If team 6 could have taken one more starting RB they would be looking VERY good:1 C.

This is ridiculous..Larry Fitzgerald was selected ahead of Warrick Dunn.COlin

That's probably why he drafted Bulger 2 rounds earlier.

I'd be thrilled with PLummer as my QB1. Now, lets see how far Wheatley drops. And Rod Smith...Colin

Oops! Yeah, the really stupid is I liked the Bulger pick!Don't mind me. I guess some of these teams just have me so dumbfounded I've gone blind too.

Me too, but not in the 7th round. ADP is 9.08 for a 10 team league.

I wonder if any of them are reading this thread looking for ideas. I might if I were them. Do they not know how to name their team? Engel taking Suggs is an embarrassment of riches, as is Burress in the 9th. Let's see what he does here in the 10th.

I was thinking about Rod too. Why hasn't anyone drafted him yet? Oh, nevermind. I just looked at the rosters again and answered my own question.

Thought Engle should have taken Green in 8. Im not sold on either one right now and its a bit early in camp to be declaring a winner. Buress was a decent pick, but he kinda swung for the fences 2 picks in a row with Suggs then Burress. I have no idea how Wheatley continues to fall in this "expert" draft.

Something tells me if they knew about this site, we'd be watching a much different (and less entertaining) draft.I need to get some work done, and just can't look away!

Grabbing 3 QBs thru 12 rounds too. I'm not familiar with the Draft-a-QB-every-4 rounds strategy. Is there an article here somewhere?Team 2 might as well mail it in now, they are the worst team by far. They only drafted 2 RB's through 10 rounds. Good thing they got 2 defenses though, good move

the crazy thing is through 13 rounds he still doesn't have ONE backup RB. I guess he's waiting to pickup Alsott/Fargas/Moe Williams in the 14th.Grabbing 3 QBs thru 12 rounds too.

I like Engel's team and all, but he's going to suffer if Pennington goes down. As I watch, a lot of solid QB2 options are flying off the board (Delhomme, BJohnson).In the leagues I'm in, all those RB's will just rot on my bench. Very few owners would be willing to trade away solid WR's for some of those guys. Especially in a 10-team league where everyone thinks they have capable RB2's. I personally have had a tough time convincing other owners that they need my players.

With the exception of Priest and Rod Smith, it seems like team 1 (diver) is the all upside team. His team is made up entirely of players that I have right after their respective dropoffs. Owens, Thomas Jones, Mason, Crumpler, Duckett, S Jackson, Fitzgerald, McGahee, and McClown have upside, for sure, and they're all at or near the top of their respective tiers, but I'd feel like I missed out on something with each of them.

Uhh...no. Either he's going balls out with only 1 QB, or he's skipping on DEF or K.Hmm...not sure I like this move.

he doesn't seem that smart anymore...no backup QB? Or is he not going to have a K or D?

No backup TE either. Taking Calico over Gannon was a mistake.I'd go Boller here.COlin

OK, Brunell in the 15th isn't bad, but I'm still not convinced he will make it the whole season. But still, now he's short a starting position. Not a good move (especially in a mock draft???).

wow, was about to agree on this, but snagging brunell this late wasn't bad!edit: guess i need to post faster, too!

Engel's team might not need a kicker. Also, I'm guessing this isn't being run as a survivor draft, but as a regular draft where he's assuming he could drop a guy closer to the season to pick up a kicker.
