| Ovr | Pick | Franchise | Selection | Pos. | Team | Age | Exp. |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1.12 | FantasySharks.com | Maurice Jones-Drew | RB | JAX | 28 | 6 |
| I like how MJD has been falling. Sure he would like a new contract and maybe he'll get some concessions but this smells more like a vet posturing while enjoying not having to go through training camp. I hope.. | |||||||
| 2 | 2.01 | FantasySharks.com | Drew Brees | QB | NO | 34 | 11 |
| Sorry all, did not realize I was up. Will update analysis later. | |||||||
| 3 | 3.12 | FantasySharks.com | Jordy Nelson | WR | GB | 28 | 4 |
| If I knew Stafford would be sitting here at 3.12 (for the first time in any draft I've been in) I wouldn't have taken Brees. Jordy Nelson is the little engine that could and it doesn't hurt being Aaron Rodgers' #1 target either. | |||||||
| 4 | 4.01 | FantasySharks.com | Mike Wallace | WR | MIA | 26 | 3 |
| I'm going with the "all contract squabble" team in this draft and drafting for super value. If they all sign, I win! I wish it were that easy. Mike Wallace has talent, is fast, Ben Roethlisberger can throw a nice deep ball, advantage Wallace. | |||||||
| 5 | 5.12 | FantasySharks.com | Aaron Hernandez | TE | NE | 23 | 2 |
| If Tom Brady is involved, it usually means solid numbers for anyone receiving the ball. Hernandez is as good as they come and will be relied upon to help move the chains in the Patriots offense. I don't like to draft a TE early this year but to my eye, Hernandez has fallen in this draft and represents good value here rolling into the 6th round. | |||||||
| 6 | 6.01 | FantasySharks.com | Shonn Greene | RB | TEN | 27 | 3 |
| RB is about to disappear completely so I'd like to get one while I still can. A couple of choices here but Greene I believe has some upside if the Jets finally get down to running the ball. I would have drafted 2 RB's here but the Hernandez selection before this was just too tempting. | |||||||
| 7 | 7.12 | FantasySharks.com | Beanie Wells | RB | --- | 24 | 3 |
| Running backs are hard to come by this year so you have to gamble here and there. Beanie Wells is coming off a solid year, had some minor'ish surgery this off-season and has a brand sparkling new rookie to contend with at the position. But somehow, I still like him as a fantasy player. Go figure. | |||||||
| 8 | 8.01 | FantasySharks.com | Eli Manning | QB | NYG | 32 | 8 |
| This pick is a little easier for me to digest in a best-ball format like this having already drafted Drew Brees. Manning will have his big days and between the two, I feel pretty good about having my quarterback position nailed down. | |||||||
| 9 | 9.12 | FantasySharks.com | Jason Witten | TE | DAL | 31 | 9 |
| I'll gamble. Like any player with potential spleen surgery as a negative they should fall in a draft but right now, nothing is definite beyond him resting and then evaluating. My gamble is he misses a game or two tops and then I have a top TE contributing to my team for the remainder of the season. | |||||||
| 10 | 10.01 | FantasySharks.com | Justin Blackmon | WR | JAX | 23 | R |
| He and Gabbert have looked sharp in preseason play. He may start off slow but expect Blackmon to start having some big games mid-season. | |||||||
| 11 | 11.12 | FantasySharks.com | Sidney Rice | WR | SEA | 26 | 5 |
| A resurgence is possible for the veteran Rice. He needs to stay healthy but if Matt Flynn delivers, Rice has a strong shot at regaining some luster. | |||||||
| 12 | 12.01 | FantasySharks.com | Mike Williams | WR | TB | 26 | 2 |
| I'm a fan. I believe Williams will have plenty of success as a #2 WR in an offense I believe will have a lot more success than last year. | |||||||
| 13 | 13.12 | FantasySharks.com | James Starks | RB | GB | 27 | 2 |
| Shy on running backs, I need to grab when I can. I'm not a big fan of this selection but this late, I'll take the turf-toed, mediocre James Starks who is on a pass first team and is facing real competition from Cedric Benson. Sigh. | |||||||
| 14 | 14.01 | FantasySharks.com | Daniel Thomas | RB | MIA | 25 | 1 |
| No whammies! I still feel like I need to pad at RB so I'll throw Daniel Thomas into the mix. Reggie Bush isn't exactly renowned for his ability to stay healthy and Thomas has come in stronger and healthier this year. | |||||||
| 15 | 15.12 | FantasySharks.com | David Akers | PK | DET | 38 | 14 |
| I like jumping in and grabbing Akers early this year and I've accomplished it here too. | |||||||
| 16 | 16.01 | FantasySharks.com | Tim Tebow | QB | NE | 25 | 2 |
| I wouldn't draft Tebow in anything but a best ball league which this happens to be. I get his multiple rushing TD days and if the Jets struggle, New York fans will not stop till Tebow gets a chance. Late round gamble. | |||||||
| 17 | 17.12 | FantasySharks.com | Lamar Miller | RB | MIA | 22 | R |
| I now own the most Reggie Bush backups in this league. I smell championship. | |||||||
| 18 | 18.01 | FantasySharks.com | Dan Bailey | PK | DAL | 25 | 1 |
| The Cowboys should score points and a friendly home stadium to kick in. Works for me. | |||||||
| 19 | 19.12 | FantasySharks.com | Denver Defense | Def | DEN | ||
| 20 | 20.01 | FantasySharks.com | Cincinnati Defense | Def | CIN | ||
