   Comments? Observations?

   I was very pleased with our first three picks. Very pleased. Drew Brees was a steal in the late second-round in my opinion, and Brandon Marshall makes a fine WR1 as a third player drafted. I do have to admit I wasn’t extremely pleased with Joseph Addai as my RB2, but I love Jermichael Finley in our line-up. I grabbed him a round early to ensure we got him and to make a statement. Finely is one of my top 5 breakout candidates this upcoming season and I’m going to grab him in almost every draft I do this year.

   Feel free to comment!

   I’m liking what you did with your slot Smitty, however Donald Driver in the 7th over Knox? I feel his bad knees will catch up to him. This being a non ppr league it seems even less important to pick him up.

   I was shocked to see Marshall far onto your lap though. Finley is a stud period. Roy Williams over Arrelious Benn or Collie made me scratch my head too. But it’s all good.

   Your core is set.

   This was a redraft, which is where I think the logic was behind Driver, though I am surprised with the Roy pick. I was completely shocked to see you land both Brees and Marshall, even in a non-ppr, and Addai and Forsett are awesome redraft RB’s. When I first saw the lineup I thought it was a 10-teamer, good draft!

   Yea, I wasn’t excited about the Roy Williams pick, but the WRs were thin at that point.

   I actually liked the value of Donald Driver, given it is a redraft like Fontaines said. It wasn’t a heavy investment, so I liked the value. I think Antonio Bryant a lot given his value and would actually be fine with him as my WR3.

   What do you guys think of Dez Bryant in the 6th? It felt early, but I honestly viewed him as the best WR available at the time and I think he can put up some strong numbers as a rookie.

   Justin Forsett in the 8th was straight-up robbery, IMO.

   I wish we were going to play this out, but it was just a mock.

   Keep the comments coming.

   No issue with 1st 3 picks. I like how you elected to get 1 elite player in each position. That RB RB strat is a loser imo. I wonder why not Jacobs (NYG) then again, I’m always looking past Addai. I though Dez was too early especially with team wr1 like Knox, Gaffney and Evans (BUF) or even Bryant available. I would be afraid of Driver this year. Two bum knees. You could have James Jones of (GB) who I think will replace Driver. I also like Jacoby Jones here too. Forsett was a steal where you got him and may outplay Addai. Gerhard is a true backup what about Arian (HOU)? Now here is a new trend only found at FFX, a WR2 handcuff !! Would like to know why K before D.

   Lucked up an won my league for the first time last year. I simply out hustled the league. Picked up a lone star receiver half time of wk5, Charles in wk10 and the Browns bomber in wk11.
