| Pick Player/My Ranking/Tier What does Master Joe think? |
| Daunte Culpepper 10 tier points Deuce McAllister 9 tier points Shaun Alexander 8 tier points Peyton Manning 10 tier points |
| Joe: Was I wrong? Is this the start of a rush? We discussed it the night before, and found out that Matt loves Culpepper. If he stays healthy, Culpepper is a fantasy monster. He might not be ideal as an NFL QB, but he accumulates so many yards! It�s not really worth talking about the quality of the first picks that much, since they should all be stars. Jake and Matt rule! Phil: C-Pep, C-Pep! That�s what Oleg would have said, had he not had to �be hittin� up the bars, Slim.� I know you�ve heard that by now, but it must be repeated. You know the deal here, certain fantasy-monster potential, but some question marks, namely involving turnovers and injuries, linger. Joe: I thought I liked Shaun Alexander more, but I just checked my rankings, and I guess I was wrong. It doesn�t matter. He has a first pick back with the #8 pick. Apparently Ade had a party to go to with G, so from this point on the parts of Jason and Oleg were played by Ade and G. Phil: Deuce-Deuce! I love Deuce. If I had to take him in the first round, I would have felt no shame. Nor should Mr. Ojo-Ade for such a fine pick. Joe: Here we are, at the end of the round, and top RBs are still being picked. What an amazing and glorious year we have here. I�m so glad I picked a RB first, because I�d be stuck with Marcell Shipp with my first back by the time we got back to my 2nd round pick. Alexander, I remember now, is under McAllister in my rankings for the following reason: he�s too inconsistent. He routinely puts up good numbers across the season, but sometimes he gets 4 TDs and sometimes he goes 4 weeks without a TD. Still good though, I suppose. Phil: RBs, get your RBs! This is how fantasy football drafts should go, not like last year�s first-round QB-fest. Good pick from a man who claimed he �found his list in the garbage� before arriving at our humble draft. Good pick? A first-round pick better be good. Joe: Q-Bert certainly didn�t expect Manning to fall into his lap here. This is ridiculous value for a 10th pick. I had Manning as my #2 quarterback, and any other year I might have taken him with my #4 pick. Manning is the most consistent top guy in the NFL. I think he broke 6000 yards last year. Really. Phil: Gotta love Peyton. Always a consistently great fantasy player. Dan ends the first round with a SHAZAM! |
