  • Winner of the 'milk carton award' (Where are they now?)

    David Wilson (RB) projected 17.

    Stephen Jackson
    Roddy White
    Danny Amendola
    Montee Ball
    Shane Vereen
    Miles Austin
    Mark Ingram
    Chris Ivory
    Fred Davis.

    The disaster magnet this year was JRabbit with 4 picks on the top 10. Notable is that three of the top 4 are players that I picked - LAST year.

    • Cam Newton, K Dan Bailey and then Lee. But defensive players and K don't count in the draft.
      Bailey and Lee beat Adrian Peterson and Steve Ridley for points.
      Took balls drafting him early and having him pay off.

      If Sean Lee were a RB, he'd be borderline top 10. Same for WRs.

      He only has 2 fewer points than Arian Foster who was drafted second in our league. You could have conceivably started your draft with Sean Lee. You'd be wrong but you'd also only be 20 points behind JR with Graham.

      Minus QBs - he'd be the 25th ranked offensive player, meaning that his correct draft position was 35th in the draft, or in the middle of the 3rd round.

      Put it this way - AP as your first pick earned you 30 points over drafting Sean Lee. Just think you could have been forever remembered as the dude who drafted a Linebacker first overall... and still not had the worst pick in the first round.

      • Runningbacks rated in the top 25 offensive players according to yahoo who suck more than Sean Lee. That's 10. Sean isn't far off from the median top 25 ranked offensive star.

        Doug Martin
        CJ Spiller
        Ray Rice
        Arian Foster
        Alfred Morris
        Trent Richardson
        Stephen Ridley
        David Wilson
        MJD
        Stephen Jackson
        Chris Johnson

        This was a BAD year for RBs.

        There were only 7 decently ranked RBs who are better than Sean -

        AP
        Lynch
        McCoy
        Charles
        Forte
        Bush
        Gore

        That's the list right there. You should be able to start Sean at RB. I want to see it happen

          Gah. Damn adjustments. I looked after the game last night and was still up by just under a point. Oh well.

                • It was certainly close. A lot of close games this year.

                  • I was cussing when Bush and Megatron lost those fumbles, figured I was going to miss those points. I wasn't too mad though, they're Lions after all.

                          Guy's a fan, he's just realistic. Just imagine if Matt Millen was your GM for all that time. No amount of kool-aid is going to counter that.

                          • Look how long I've had Jerry Jones as GM. Don't talk to me about patience.

                              Jerry Jones is a great GM for a rival team. But at least he drafts pretty well.

                              • Great. Now you made me think of Jerry as owner/gm with Millen as asst. gm. I'd rather get run over my a herd of turtles.
