Just did a mock from the #1 position, QB/WR/WR/WR/RB/RB/TE/K/DEF Wanted to see a comparison between drafting Peterson and Fitzgerald… Here's how it turned out:<br>
Round 1- WR* L.Fitzgerald bye 4
Round 2- WR* R.Wayne bye 6
Round 3- WR* M.Colston bye 5
Round 4- RB* J.Addai bye 6
Round 5- RB* M.Lynch bye 9
Round 6- QB* M.Ryan bye 4
Round 7- TE* G.Olsen bye 5
Round 8- RB* C.Wells bye 4
Round 9- RB* F.Jackson bye 9
Round 10- QB* B.Roethlisberger bye 8
Round 11- RB* D.Brown bye 6
Round 12- WR* P.Harvin bye 9
Round 13- WR* N.Washington bye 7
Round 14- DEF* Washington bye 8
Round 15- K* R.Gould bye 5 <br>
Next I tried the standard way, drafting Peterson first, and here's how it went:<br>
Round 1- RB* A.Peterson bye 9
Round 2- WR* R.Wayne bye 6
Round 3- WR* M.Colston bye 5
Round 4- RB* J.Addai bye 6
Round 5- RB* M.Lynch bye 9 *Note L.J. available, capable of missing Schaub/Ryan*
Round 6- QB* M.Ryan bye 4 *Cutler may be available*
Round 7- TE* G.Olsen bye 5 *capable of missing Big Ben*
Round 8- WR* L.Coles bye 8
Round 9- RB* C.Wells bye 4 *Wells capable of falling in Rounds 5-8*
Round 10- QB* B.Roethlisberger bye 8
Round 11- RB* F.Jackson bye 9
Round 12- RB* D.Brown bye 6
Round 13- WR* N.Washington bye 7
Round 14- DEF* Washington bye 8
Round 15- K* R.Gould bye 5
Comparison:

QB- same
RB-Addai/Lynch/Wells vs A.P./Addai/Lynch
WR-Fitz/Wayne/Colston vs Coles/Wayne/Colston
TE- same
K- same
DEF- same

This draft was done away from FFX mocks, to establish how people value the RB/WR position in July.  Thought it was interesting to try and manipulate a draft by picking the #1 WR instead of the #1 RB, and see how it turned out.  Basically, in theory, it was an exchange draft pre-trade Fitz for A.P.

Interesting. But in a 12 team live draft I dont think you could land Marshwan Lynch in the 5th (5.1) plus as it gets close to Sept and if that suspension is reduced, he will move in round 2

Plus Donald Brown falling to round 11 wont happen either  and Addai position may change.

i say dont every pas on AP, take Wayne and Colston, or Ronnie Brown or Pierre Thomas or Darren MCFadden as Running Back #2 

Then look for Ocho Cino at the WR or Ray Rice if you dont take a 2nd RB

I don't think you will grab Addai and Lynch that late…
