Just as the draft is starting, I'll be walking through the Science Center with a whole whack of extremely hyped up kids. Oh, what a treat!
If anyone feels so inclined, could you please send me PMs so that I know who's taking whom…they'll go to my Storm. I really don't know how I manage to get roped into these things….

I third that. Pretty bad when teams don't want to touch the 1st 3 picks because it will cost them millions in a salary. It will be good for the game when teams can be active and try to trade up to get those picks….

I'll be really surprised if STL actually make the #2 pick tomorrow. After coughing up all that dough to Long last year, they have to be feeling a little squeemish about this. I bet they're sitting by the phone right now, waiting for it to ring.

There is nothing like owning a top three pick in a rookie draft and then watching a draft unfold. I have the 1.02 in one of our dynasty expert leagues, but unfortunately the owner that holds the 1.01 has already told me he is going Moreno, so I'm hoping Wells or Brown lands in an IDEAL situation.
By the way everyone, we are having our Rookie Draft for this same league, and our other, on Monday! We moved the dates up to both rookie drafts so you guys would all get a chance to see some fantasy expert rookie drafts immediately after the rooks find landing spots. Should be a great Monday on the forums!

This is my take as well. We may be talking about two different Brown's, you may have meant D.Brown,(Connecticut) where I was referring to A.Brown.(NC St.) Both RB's are about the size of Forte, but they have questionable durability issues. Rashad Jennings could also be a workhorse of this class, and worth a look at where he lands.

Very exciting indeed, I only have 1.4 and I cannot wait to see how things play out.
And one big back I don't see mentioned here is Shonn Greene, Who I will be looking hard at where he lands. In the right situation this guy could become a diamond in the rough. I will most likely be looking at D. Brown and Greene ahead of McCoy at 1.4 in my rookie draft.

I like Shonn Greene a lot. It will be interesting who the RB2 and RB3 will be exiting rounds 1-2.

Really excited to watch this draft!
I totally agree with the need for a rookie salary cap. Kudos for the Lions for stepping up and emptying the dump truck full of money on Staffords lawn. It must be hard for an NFL Vet playing and making the league minimum while some rook makes a ridiculous amount!
Also looking forward to what the Seahawks will do at 4. QB? OT? LB? Trade out? We'll see!

I think they both stick around, unless either the Cards or Clev just give up on them and give them away.

Steven Jackson's value just went up. With a center and now Smith, Jackson is in for a big year. Bulger may stay healthy, too.
