This was another Yahoo! league, with very strange scoring. First of all, you start QB, WR, WR, WR, RB, RB, TE, W/R, K, DEF, so WRs are like currency. Second of all, the scoring format favors running/receiving TDs over yardage (although there is a .5 PPR and 3 bonus points for 300 yds/passing, 100 yds/rush and 100 yds/rec). So I altered my strategy a bit; I was helped out by getting a good slot: third!
- Joseph Addai
- Marvin Harrison
- Antonio Gates
- Deuce McAllister
- Marion Barber III
- Deion Branch
- Bernard Berrian
- LaMont Jordan
- Matt Hasselbeck
- Jerry Porter
- Fred Taylor
- Devery Henderson
- Brett Favre
- Matt Stover
- Denver
- Wes Welker
I really agonized over taking Gates with the 3rd pick in the 3rd round; it was between him and T.O.. MAYBE had I done that, I still could've ended up with Winslow or Heap later and I could've taken a better RB than Deuce, but remember, TDs are more valuable here and Deuce will get his share. Also, a LOT of good RBs went between my pick at #3 and my second. I don't have the info anymore, but I think the best available at that point was Thomas Jones, whom I am now worried about. So WR/WR was how I decided to play it, but opted instead for a TE who scores like a WR. I'm totally happy with Branch as my #2 and ecstatic with Berrian as my #3.
Fred Taylor was a "holy crap, he's still available?!" pick. And I can't believe Devery lasted as long as he did.
