Interestingly enough, this team followed much the same plan as team #1 with Tomlinson followed by two top WRs - Owens and Boldin. Then he opted for safer pick of Dunn and the 5.03 went to Plaxico Burress for WR3 before his QB or RB3. That start just looks a bit less effective than team #1 though a solid start to be sure.

Added Foster in the 6th (but no DeAngelo) and finally got a QB in the 7th with Bledsoe. Vinatieri should at least be fine at PK if not stellar. Overall, this build a good team but his QB is weaker and his RB depth has more downside than upside. Solid throughout, this team has less room to grow than team #1 and has to hope nothing develops away from his players.

Nice start with Portis and Davis at RB and then discovered that the WR's were getting low by the 3.04 - still went for the position and only came away with Randy Moss and Galloway as starters. Hasselbeck in the 5th rounded out the core of players.

Grabbed Thomas Jones for RB3 which is looking weaker every day and then went back after WR yet again with Glenn and Evans. That makes four mildly interesting WR in the first eight rounds and perhaps not a difference maker in the batch. Ended up with Ahman Green as well for RB4 so this team looks like it will get worse as year progresses. By the 16th round, went on a QB spree defying all logic. Must have thought that 2 QB could be started? Makes no real sense here. Overall, this is a weaker team that will likely get worse as the season progresses.

After securing James as RB1, could not resist Manning at the 2.05 and in a ten team league, perfectly understandable. That left him with Lewis as RB2 and he doubled on WR to get Horn and Houshmandzadeh. Other than Manning, that looks like a below average start in a ten team league.

Liked the Gonzalez pick in the 6th for some punch at TE and then CHI as the DEF in the 7th another "better than average" starter. Overall, ended up with a team much like most with Peyton Manning. It is mainly him and a bevy of average players other then his DEF and perhaps TE (the two lower scoring positions they are). His RB's are weak and could be without even a backup if Taylor gets hurt like usual. This plan did not pan out well other than Manning.

Using almost the identical plan to team #7, this produced Steven Jackson and McGahee as starting RBs, and then picked up Hines Ward and Darrell Jackson for the starting WR. Good solid start but decidedly unspectacular. TE Shockey as the 5.08 was a very prudent move that should help.

McNabb at the 6.03 was a needed pick though he could have been Eli Manning or Bulger. Surprisingly went for the aging Rod Smith with his 7th pick and did not get RB3 until the 9th round when he was fortunate enough to still fine Rhodes who had no business still being there. Overall, this plan did much what it did next door except for using that 7th round pick on a RB, he went with WR3 that makes little sense in a league that only mandates 2 starting WR. Got great value picks for much of his depth and the team is solid, just a little less so than team #7.

Plan Grade: B

The back-end swing tried valiantly to do something different and it appears to have worked. Went with Steve Smith and Chad Johnson for best in breed at WR, then could not resist Antonio Gates with the 3.10 pick. That awesome start left him scrambling for RBs but he did a nice job filling those in.

Went with Parker at the 5.10 and then reached the bookends of Bell and Dayne, and Brown and White. This team may take a few weeks to clearly unfold, but it could be a major surprise with easily the best WRs and TE in the league and enough RB's that he can likely fill 2 or 3 starters each week and has Chambers as WR3 just in case he wants to go that direction. QB is weaker with Warner and no Leinart but as long as Warner delivers, this could be a good team and maybe even a great team if those RB situations resolve themselves early with a productive runner.
