12 Team Standard League

Postby Hothouse1966 » Sat Sep 11, 2010 2:18 am

QB 4pt TD, 1pt per 50yds passing; RB/WR/TE 6pt TD & 1pt per 25 combined rush/rec yds.
We start
1QB
1RB
2WR
1 Flex (RB or WR)
1 TE
1 K
1 Def (no special teams)

I drafted #2 overall; I mocked a few draft strategies and decided my best option was to take either CJ or AP in the first round then go WR/WR/WR with the next 3 rounds. After that, I would look for best option b/w RB and QB for the next 2 rounds, then draft best available player until last 3 rounds where I would draft TE/K/Def if not already drafted. My draft went like this:

1st Rd: RB Chris Johnson (AP went first)
2nd Rd: WR Roddy White
3rd Rd: WR Larry Fitz (frankly, I was surprised these two WRs were available)
4th Rd: RB Jahvid Best (first digression from strategy, but he was too good to pass in the 4th rd)
5th Rd: WR Pierre Garcon
6th Rd: RB Jonathan Stewart (I was surprised he was still there and the guy behind me needed another RB)
7th Rd: QB Carson Palmer (3 QBs went in the first round with Schaub 1st in the 2nd, I decided to hold out for Matt Ryan or Joe Flacco but they were gone early, too. When it came time to pick Palmer, I had to choose b/w him, Kolb, or Cutler. Kolb tempted me but I went with what I thought was a safer bet).
8th Rd: WR Jacoby Jones (good upside and a value pick in the 8th rd)
9th Rd: RB Cadillac Williams (I had my eye on him for most of 2 rounds and was really happy he fell to me; rounds out a really solid RB quartet)
10th Rd: Saints Defense (I probably reached here, but I have a good feeling about them and they have a week 10 bye, which allows me time to wait them out)
11th Rd: TE Zach Miller (the TE run was a few rounds earlier and I was having none of it; I feel Miller has potential to be top 5 TE this year. needless to say, very happy to get him this late)
12th Rd: WR Devery Henderson (somehow I always wind up drafting Henderson... Maybe this year he'll pan out)
13th Rd: Patrick Crayton (a reach, could have had him later)
14th Rd: WR Mike Willimas (TB) (high value for this round and as my 7th WR. basically, I'm looking for 2 or 3 of my bottom 5 WRs to pan out and I can dangle them as trade bait)
15th Rd: QB Josh Freeman (not happy about him as my backup - I thought for sure I could land Henne but he went a few picks earlier than i wante him in, I thinnk, the 12th round. I had to choose b/w Freeman, Bradford, Garrard or Orton)
16th Rd: K Neil Rackers (I was really happy to land kicker from what I think will be one of the top 3-5 scoring offenses this year in the last round)

Overall, I thought I had a great draft and am looking forward to a successful season.

What makes it a good draft is the picks of Best, Palmer and Cadillac in later rounds than they should have went. You also made great picks in the first 3 rounds.. This team should dominate.
