Jock Jerseys’ Fantasy Football Team

30 August 2008 9 views No Comment

Today was my fantasy football draft, which I had been looking forward to for several weeks. Unfortunately, I overslept and joined the draft about 5 rounds too late. With the #4 overall pick and draft position, I was in a pretty good spot to develop a strong fantasy squad for this year.

I’m still pretty confident that I can compete pretty well, but the auto-draft picked a few guys I’m not too excited about.

Here are the fantasy picks that Yahoo picked for me:

Stephen Jackson
Andre Johnson
Brandon Jacobs
Wes Welker
Marvin Harrison
Drew Brees

After a few quick expletives were shouted and I figured out Yahoo’s new draft order (just a big damn long auto-scroll bar). There wasn’t a lot of quality left to choose from, but I think I did ok considering everything.

My picks included:

Thomas Jones (expecting good things w/ Favre at the helm)
Derrick Mason
Jake Delhomme
LenDale White
Bobby Engram (ok, so I didn’t know he was hurt)
DeAngelo Williams (hoping this was a steal w/ 14th round pick)
Alge Crumpler (TE)
Josh Brown (K)
Jacksonville (D)

Some of the other teams are loaded w/ a solid RB, WR and QB, but again, I think that my roster can compete any given week. With only 10 teams in my league, several high profile players were still available at draft’s end. The waiver wire will surely be filled w/ other auto-draft victims who will be looking to improve their fantasy roster.
