Started: RB, WR, RB, WR, TE

Here's a solid plan that makes use of the early picks by taking Alexander and then Fitzgerald with Kevin Jones as RB2 in the 3rd round. Added Andre Johnson for WR2 and then still reached Jeremy Shockey in the 5th round. That makes three top players for RB, WR and TE.

Went with Galloway at the 6.09 which missed Bulger by just one pick. Bledsoe was a prudent move in the 7th round and he picked up LenDale White for an upside backup. While not quite as splashy as team #1, this is a contender with Alexander, Fitzgerald and Shockey leading the way. Nice upside picks for all the WR depth and left DEF and PK for the very end.

There is some room to grow on this roster with upside picks and if Alexander and Fitzgerald hold on to their 2005 production, this will be one of the teams to beat.

Started out with Tiki Barber as that #4 player drafted and then added Terrell Owens for some fireworks during the season. Droughns as RB2 came in the third round and then doubled up on WR with Mason and Horn. Nice enough start for the RB and WR but then went back and secured both Thomas Jones and Cedric Benson. Now the RB's are definitely solid but all other positions besides RB and WR have been ignored.

That lead to L.J. Smith for TE and then Delhomme as QB. Other than Owens, this team likely has no players that will be top 5 in their position (okay maybe Barber too) and they took some nice upside picks like Mason, Smith, Watson and Rivers. But in a ten team league, will need those RBs and WRs to really come on strong because nothing else on the roster is likely to be a difference maker. Solid team but delaying the picks for the other four starting spots until the 8th round or later could hold this team back a little on what they could do every week.

Plan Grade: B

Started: RB, WR, QB, RB, TE

Have to like how this ended up. After snapping up Portis at the 1.06, went with Chad Johnson for a top WR and then found Manning at the 3.06 - how could you pass it up? Had to go RB in the 4th and found Julius Jones which was a steal and then still reached Tony Gonzalez with the 5.06. Despite starting mid-draft, still has a top WR, QB and TE, Nice upside on both RBs and could value pick from then on.

Ended up with decent WRs in Branch, Clayton and Stallworth while adding Dunn and even backing up Jones with Marion Barber. Amazingly waited until the 16.05 to get a kicker and still got Akers. I really like the way this came together and the starters are about as good as you could hope for - maybe better. Nice depth and backups too. This was team had some good fortune in players falling to him and used that to his advantage.

Plan Grade: A

Started: RB, WR, WR, RB, QB

The 8th pick is never anyone's favorite, but this team made pretty good use of the tough spot. Started with Ronnie Brown and then doubled on WR with Steve Smith and Chris Chambers. Found a nice deal on Chester Taylor in the 4th round and then took Palmer as his QB with the 5.08.

Dillon (6th) was joined by Maroney (10th) to ensure that this team has the RBs he needs every week. Waited a bit on TE with Cooley at the 8.03 but liked the backups of Warner, Winslow and Parker and Elam at the 16.03 was a great find. There are no star players considering the league size other than Steve Smith but almost every position has a player that could really step up this year. Ronnie Brown, Palmer (considering his draft spot), Warner, Taylor, Maroney and Winslow could all step up. There is risk here but it is balanced by upside. This is about as much fun of a team as you can see with a #8 pick.

Started: RB, RB, WR, WR, RB

Like team #9, this team started out RB-RB-WR-WR and had a similar result in Domanick Davis and Jordan, then Ward and Jackson. Very solid start but a chance that none of the players end up top ten this year. What happened next I actually liked.

Went with Addai and then Rhodes sandwiching Santana Moss. Now he has a solid set of RBs and three very solid WRs. Did not take a QB until the 8th round with Brooks but there's upside there and he also grabbed Green in the 9th to ensure there would be a decent QB every week. CAR as a defense helps too. The team is weak at TE but has last year's #1 PK in Feely which helps a little.

I liked this plan since it started out standard but then was able to make some plays that could help this team compete with the double down on QBs and getting the IND rushing game. He even landed a top DEF and PK.
