    My drafts so far has seen LT, Peterson, Jackson, Moss, and Brady going in the top 5.

    Not sure who I would consider the biggest sleeper. Maybe Selvin Young.

    Run DMC is my favorite rookie this season. (McFadden)

    My favorite DSTs are the Steelers, Patriots, Vikings, and Chargers. The Ravens have been sneaking down to the lower rounds, they won't be bad for cheap.

    What leagues have you been playing in? Out of three leagues I am in, the top 5 in all 3 have been LT, Peterson, Addai, Westbrook, and Moss. Usually in that order.

    Edit to add: I agree with McFadden. As an LSU fan, it sickened me to realize that I had McFadden and Felix Jones in two different leagues.

    Who goes number one? - Tomlinson in nearly every draft, Westbrook in a few. Can't argue with either.

    Who's the biggest sleeper? - If Warner starts in Arizona, I really like him. Ray Rice could/should emerge as the # 1 in Baltimore.

    What rookies are worth drafting? - McFadden, K. Smith, J. Stewart, J. Howard

    Which defense would you pick? - I still like San Diego, despite the fact that Merriman looks unlikely to play. Cake schedule and weak division. The Vikes should be beasts too.

The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

    I had the #6 pick in the psa league. I was torn between picking Moss or Brady. I picked Brady. Do you think I made the right choice?

    I still like the Bears DST. Also a weak division and Devin Hester is still the man.

    I don't think too much of McGahee, but I don't think Rice has any shot to take that job. He will have to settle for third down and giving McGahee a breather.

    I am a huge bears fan, being from Chicago. They are in some major trouble this year. They will be lucky to win 6 games in my oppinion. I hope I am wrong

    My answer to questions 2 and 3 are the same. You guys can laugh at me for being a Cal homer but I'm going with Desean Jackson (Eagles WR). In my own personal rankings, I put him at the top of the list of #2 WRs. Why?

    1) Speed - he runs a 4.3 40 and is a much better route runner than Ted Ginn Jr.
    2) With Kevin Curtis out, I think he is clearly the #2 WR in Philly
    3) Reggie Brown has been a major disappointment as a #1 WR so I think there is potential for Jackson to supplant Brown
    4) He has the potential to be a dyanamic punt returner - on the same level as Hester. This is what separates him from the other #2 WRs. If any of you have seen him return punts in college, you will understand why I think he takes at least 1 to the house this year.

    I got him in the PSA draft at #171, but had him rated much higher (had to autodraft since I wasn't home on Sat).

    1. LT
    2. Anthony Gonzalez
    3. McFadden should have a good campaign. Slaton could do something with the Texans as a rookie sleeper.
    4. Colts, Pats, Steelers, Chargers. I would be fine with any of those 4.

    Based on your draft position, neither would have been a bad pick. I don't think it's likely that Brady duplicates last year, but the question is how much does he drop off? I'm just glad that Gore fell all the way to me at #11

    In my opinion you should never take a QB that high. Running backs are the key.

    I had the opp. to pick the Stealers when I was drafting my defense. I don't think the steelers D is going to put up good fantasy #'s. Check out their schedule they probably have the hardest schedule out of any team in the league. I took a risk and went with Dallas instead.
  • bdunndchibdunndchi Posts: 650
    I think LT would be #1. I would also like to get Bears for my defense.

    punt return stats don't count typically towards a WR's stats, only that defense/ST's stats. at least thats how I've always seen it.

    Actually, you do credit for the punt returns (at least I think that is the usual default). It's just that you usually don't have the star players returning punts or kicks so this doesn't come into play most of the time.

    Jonathan Stewart FTW

    For everyone picking Stewart as a sleeper - I definitely agree.
