First redraft of the year... think I did pretty well [WHIR]

-----------------------------------------

I was hoping someone ahead of me would overlook that it was a PPR format and take Turner in the Top 3 so Forte would make it to me #4 and fortunately that happened. The first run of WRs pushed Gore all the way to me at #17 which I happily took. (I still managed to snag Steve Smith in Round 3 so it's not like it came at the price of not getting a true WR1 either.)

Going into the draft, I was targetting Brandon Marshall for Round 5 or 6 and I grabbed him when he was there for me in the 5th. As my WR3 in a PPR format, he was more than worth the risk.

Josh Morgan may have been a reach in Round 11 but I love his playmaking ability and upside and wanted to make sure I had him in the fold as insurance incase Brandon Marshall doesn't work out.

My QB situation is probably the only obvious question mark. In this scoring format, QBs aren't exactly scoring juggernauts so I opted not to take a QB when there were other skill players with higher scoring potential still available. Schaub has major upside if he can stay healthy. Hasselbeck may not be the best insurance policy with the lousy O-Line but I like the weapons he has in the passing game plus their subpar ground game and defense should have the Seahawks throwing often.

Overall, I'm really happy with how it came out. What do y'all think?

I like Schaub and Hasselbeck, so you shouldn't have to worry about the quarterback position at all. Getting Gore that late is a steal, as he should do very well in the new run-heavy offensive scheme. I'm not thrilled with Marshall, but 5th round isn't bad. He might be better value there than Owens.

Dallas Clark is one of the best tight ends, so you're solid there. The best sleepers are Hester, Felix Jones, and Coffee, who should all produce if they are given enough time.

QB - B+
RB - A
WR - A-
TE - A

Looks pretty solid to me.
