tt1010 0 Posted August 28, 2006 I ditched the magazines and ESPN.com this year and decided to try and find a website with forums and such. I wanted more insight and up to date information. Luckily, I stumbled upon FFT. Immediately, two things became clear: 1) I didn't know nearly as much about FF as I thought I did 2) The other coaches in my league knew even less than I did So, armed with the knowledge gleaned from reading FFT daily for the past 6 weeks, this is the team I came away with (the numbers in parentheses indicates which round I picked that player in - I had the 2nd pick): QB: Steve McNair (12) RB: Shaun Alexander (1) Warrick Dunn (4) Mike Bell (6) Frank Gore (7) Fred Taylor (10) Jerious Norwood (13) WR: Torry Holt (2) Chris Chambers (3) Santana Moss (5) Matt Jones (9) Antonio Bryant (11) Troy Williamson (14) TE: Ben Watson (8) DEF: Jax (15) Kicker: Josh Brown (16) No, my draft wasn't perfect and I saw a few picks afterwards that I might have chosen differently in hindsight. But I was quite pleased. I have a very solid core w/ good depth and some potential sleepers. I went a little crazy w/ waiting on a QB though... we'll see how that goes. This is the first year of a keeper league - it has been a redraft league, but we decided to switch this year. Thank you FFT - the knowledge and expertise on this site helped me tremendously come draft day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you FFT - the knowledge and expertise on this site helped me tremendously come draft day! Things I like: Big time steal with Frank Gore in the 7th round I think. Also a huge steal in Holt late in round 2. Like Jones and Williamsons potential. Things I dont: A little shaky with Bell and Taylor at RB3. Don't like McNair and reached for Chambers.

Things I dont: A little shaky with Bell and Taylor at RB3. Don't like McNair and reached for Chambers. I'll start SA and Dunn. Gore, Bell and Taylor will be my backups - I just couldn't pass up Taylor in the 10th! Yeah, I'm not thrilled w/ my QB spot, but once I waited, two huge runs on QBs took all the talent off the board. I like McNair as a sleeper, but if it doesn't work out, I think I'm deep enough to trade. I expect big things from Chambers this year. The main reason I reached was b/c there were plenty of Tier 2 and top Tier 3 RBs left. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
