Started: RB, WR, TE, QB, RB

Went with a very nice streak on high value players. Took Larry Johnson, then Holt and Gates for top players in each position. Brady with the 4.11 yet again gives him a top QB and he still reached Thomas Jones with the 5.02 pick. Wisely mined for RB's and grabbed Curtis Martin and then Cedric Benson for the CHI bookend.

Later on went with solid receivers in Glenn, Coles and Jurevicius and took the big name kicker with Rackers. Have to love how this ended up. Has literally the #1 or #2 players for QB, RB, WR, TE and PK. RB depth is fine with CHI backs and Martin which will produce a decent #2 RB at the worst. The only thing I do not like on this team are the defenses but that is not a big deal with all the other firepower. Oddly enough, this pattern has been in almost all the mocks this year - top 3 pick scoops on WR/TE and still ends up with CHI backfield for great value.

Plan Grade: A+

Started: RB, RB, WR, QB, WR

Pretty standard plan at work here. Grabbed James maybe a little early since he is on a new team and then went with Kevin Jones at the 2.09 which was another pick higher than usually happens. Luckily still managed to end up with Boldin and then went for Carson Palmer and Roy Williams. The Palmer pick is gold if he ends up healthy this year. If not, he passed on Brady, Eli Manning and other good QBs without health issues.

Stole Dominic Rhodes with the 7.04 which nice and has some very nice upside players in Williams, Rhodes, Brown, Davis and Kitna. This is a riskier than usual roster that could flop if Palmer is gimpy, Jones ends up the same and Davis really is just a rookie TE on a horrible offense. For a fourth pick, the risks seems more unneeded that necessary but with some luck could surprise. With some bad luck or even just the expected outputs of most players, this team could struggle just as easily. Risky picks that weren't the risks that I would take personally.

Not unlike team #5, this plan worked out similar. Grabbed Barber and then double scooped on WR's with Fitzgerald and Wayne before going back and tabbing Dillon. That was made much stronger with adding Maroney at the 8.07 pick. Addai is an obvious upside RB depth choice as well.

Finally went with Vick at QB and took Brees for a reasonable back-up. Though he waited on TE, have to love getting Miller and Smith back-to-back. Figure out which one correctly each week and that could work out well. CHI a nice pickup and Vanderjagt a nice name PK in a new spot. Overall, I personally hate the QB's but it could work out well with a healthy Vick. RB's should be solid and with Addai and Maroney who knows? Could be very nice. His WR depth is very suspect but starters of Fitzgerald, Wayne and Horn are plenty. Other than WR depth and a risk at QB, this plan seems to have worked out well. Drafting mid-round is pretty tough.

Plan Grade: A-

This plan worked out pretty well. Started with Jackson and then McGahee was still available and negated any temptation to dive into WR early. By the 3.08, the WR's had just been drained though and Chambers was the pick (could have been DJax, S. Moss, Ward or Burress for that matter). A little weak at WR1 but Shockey next secures a top TE and Galloway at the 5.08 shored up WR though he comes off a career year and likely will not repeat. He could have been Mason, Branch or Houshmandzadeh and looked better.

Culpepper in the 6th is a big risk but have to love reaching Brooks in the 10th as a fallback. PK and DEF should be fine. Overall, There is risk here with Culpepper but balanced with Brooks. RB depth is very suspect with only Jacobs a certainty to play some when needed (and he only scores TDs). The wideouts are a very solid group even if they were not the ones I would have gone for, there is no doubt that the crew will provide at least 3 decent choices per week. Loved the first two RBs and Shockey but the rest of the team won't likely be difference makers if not end up as a risky pick.

Plan Grade: B

Started: RB, RB, WR, RB, WR

This plan had the look of "they can wait". Started strong with Cadillac and Westbrook and then a nice grab in DJax but then grabbed RB3 in McAllister returning from a knee injury and sharing with Bush. That 4.03 pick could have been any QB other than Peyton, any TE other than Gates, Burress or Roy Williams. Seems a tradeoff with questionable value. Reached Mason and Walker which were nice picks and then took Rod Smith to make sure whatever happens in the DEN passing game happens to this team.

Waited until the 8.03 for QB and dipped twice to get Delhomme and then Trent Green. High scoring position so waiting seems to have hurt this team. Did not take a TE until the 11.10 and even then went with Jerramy Stevens who is recovering from surgery and may not even play in week one. This plan started well but the shift to RB again in the 4th round for a backup cascaded back into all the positions and waiting on TE and QB means lesser points than most teams. Taking a third RB early can be prudent but not so much when he is returning from an ACL tear. And ignoring all positions besides RB and WR until the 8th round meant below average players.

This team is an interesting juxtaposition next to team #11. Also started RB-RB with Brown (major steal in my book) and Davis which meant only Ward and then Driver were left for WR. Solid pair to be sure, though unlikely studs. Reached Crumpler with the 5.12 for another nice pick and then followed that with Bulger for a nice passing game. Still reached Gore/Barlow with the 7/8 swing for a decent backup RB situation and PIT defense should at least be good.

This team too did not make use of swings to walk away with any true stud players but was a safe route that netted some solid players. Notice the difference that happened when he waited on RB3 and was able to lock down better TE and QB than team #11 that put himself behind the eight ball once his 4th round pick went for a back-up player. Also had the best kicker for whatever that may be worth. This was a safe route to take for the 12th pick that made some use of players falling to him and overall, worked out well for the last pick in the first round.
