Draft by Team
Evaluating an eight team draft means looking for studs - Having an average team means mediocrity for sure because there is so much depth on the waiver wire. You need major bang for your buck at every starting position.

Started: RB, WR, WR, QB, WR
This plan started out with Larry Johnson and then could not resist grabbing two top wideouts in Randy Moss and Anquan Boldin. Went for more playmakers with Carson Palmer in the 4th and then instead of getting a RB that could have been Jamal Lewis or WIllie Parker, snapped up a 3rd wideout with Roy Williams.
That left Droughns in the sixth which was not a major drop off despite being 14 picks later. Went on a RB streak after that securing Gore and Tatum Bell and Ron Dayne to maybe sew up the Denver backfield. Waited until the tenth to get TE L.J. Smith and left PK and DEF for the end without too much given up.
Certainly a solid team to be sure with some major playmakers. The RB's are not as solid as they could have been obviously which will make the flex a little hard to figure out. While I didn't like the RBs that much, this team got away with delaying the RB's unlike in a larger league.
Plan Grade: B+ |
Started: RB, RB, WR, WR, RB
Hard to argue much with this plan. Started with the RB's with Tomlinson and Westbrook and then still reached Fitzgerald and then Driver for WR's. Went back for Jamal Lewis in the 5th.
Thanks to the small league size, he still found TE Crumpler and QB Manning on the board for a very nice start. Like team #1, delayed his DEF and PK and yet still reached Elam and Seattle. Nothing wrong with that.
Overall the only playmakers are Tomlinson and perhaps Fitzgerald but it is a strong team throughout as it should be. The plan built a good team that will need some players to emerge to make this a great team in an eight man league.

Started: RB, WR, RB, RB, QB
Last of the big three went when team selected Shaun Alexander and then that was followed by Terrell Owens. Double dipped on RB next with Cadillac and Kevin Jones. Hasselbeck went in the 5th for a solid start.
Andre Johnson and Houshmandzadeh rounded out the starting wideouts and liked the Steeler pick in the 8th round for a difference maker. Cooley was a little late in the 9th round. While some of the starters have risk around them (Owens, K Jones), the backups are almost all nice upside picks other than Curtis Martin. While starters could be better, I actually liked the depth here which gives the team somewhere to grow.
If he hits on those first five picks, then this team will be very solid but there is a little more risk than desired for such a small league.
Plan Grade: B |
Started: RB, WR, QB, RB, TE
Have to like this plan. Started with Portis but then grabbed WR Holt for a top player there. Then Tom Brady gives him a top QB followed by a top TE in Shockey. Sandwiched in Warrick Dunn in the 4th who could have been K Jones or J Lewis.
Pulled off a coup of sorts by getting both Rhodes and Addai which should help the RB's out. Waited on DEF and PK but no major loss here with ATL and Graham.
Overall, would have liked to see more RBs but could be fine with Dunn and the IND backfield. No arguing that Portis, Holt, Brady and Shockey gives him top players in four different positions. While I maybe did not like the back-end of this so much, the first five picks here set this team up to contend.

Started: RB, WR, RB. WR, WR
After betting RB Barber, went with Steve Smith for a difference maker at WR1 and then Jordan rounds out the starting RB's. Doubled on WR then to get Wayne and Chambers for a very nice threesome at wideout without giving up too much at RB.
Heap in the 6th was a playmaker at TE and Bulger in the 7th another very nice value pick in this small league. Even tagged Vinatieri for perhaps the sole high end PK this year and Colts DEF should be at least an average starter.
Overall, liked the depth on this team including the NO backfield with Bush and McAllister. Playmakers of Barber, S Smith, Heap and Vinatieri will help along with those solid WRs. If Bulger can stay healthy, this team will definitly compete.
Plan Grade: A- |
Started: RB, WR, WR, RB, TE
Fairly standard approach to perhaps the toughest spot in an 9 man league. Went with Steven jackson and then doubled on top top WR in Chad Johnson and Marvin Harrison - have to love that in a reception point league. Still found Chester Taylor for RB2 and then Gonzalez fills in at TE for at least a better than average player.
QB waited until the 7th round and still reached Donovan McNabb and the depth is solid on this team. Those two WRs will help carry this team and the RB's could be fine here. Most of the other positions will not be difference makers for him but are solid enough.

Started: QB, RB, RB, RB, WR
This was especially interesting to see the effect of taking Manning in a eight man league. He was followed by a triple raid on RB that netted Edgerrin James, Rudi Johnson and Julius Jones (who was later backed up with Marion Barber.
Progressed through the starting lineup with D Jackson and then Mason for solid though unspectacular WR's, and then Witten offers a decent value at TE and the Panthers should be a great DEf this year.
Overall, this team will rise and fall on those first four picks but if Manning can repeat 2004 and the RB's all stay healthy and meet expectations, this should be a consistent scoring team every week with a bit of upside in the depth to grow.
Plan Grade: B+ |
Started: TE, RB, RB, RB, WR
Used almost the same start as next door but took Gates at the 1.08 pick which makes much more sense in a small league to get the star TE. Tripled on RBs to get serious value with R Brown, McGahee and D Davis before tripling on WR to find Ward, Burress and Horn. This looks like a team put together by never deviating from a plan.
CHI defense was nice and the depth is all solid enough. The team will be good with those RB's no doubt and if Gates can meet expectations, then this team will compete but there is a lack of firepower at WR and QB which could hurt.
This looks more like an average team in an eight man league but solid enough that good things could happen.
