Keeper League draft talk

And that's why you've finished last the past 2 years T-hawk.

TEs are VERY important and often over-looked. You try to build the strongest team possible and when you look at match-ups, usually QB/RB/WR are close to being even or one team having a slight edge. But if a TE can put up 6-10 points in a close match, it makes all the difference. While QB and RB are the most important and productive, TE is crucial when it comes down to competitive matchups.

I'd rather have my starters including a stud TE then a roster filled with average fantasy RBs and WRs....

Also, el Chugo needs to submit a list.

No...last year I sucked because of injuries at WR/TE and a kicker that put up 1pt a game if I was lucky. However, the year before that I finished 2nd....

My team sucked last year because both Martin & Dillon had off years. This year I think Dillon should do well with the Patsies and Davis will get his with the Panthers.

Davis may get some carries taken away from him tho if DeShaun Foster continues to develop....

The Problem with starting TE's unless you have Gonzalez or Heap is they just get yds and not TD's. Down inside the 5 yd line a RB, 2nd or 3rd string TE will get the TD.

Damnit Chuck...you just ruined my "perfect" draft with the pick of Rod Smith. He was going overlooked and I had hoped he was going to make it one more round...

Wouldn't have made it past me.

You can always dream....at least I got my "trade bait" QB....

Actually...I may consider trading Vick in favor of Leftwitch...

Nice pick of the Bills D, troy. I was optimistically hoping they would fall to me at the very last pick. $:-\$

My eyes are on a new prize...anyone who picks this fellow shall feel my wrath whenever we meet up on the field of competition.

I'm pretty happy with the way camp is going right now, but I'm always looking to make a deal.

Too bad, Arizona is still available.

Dude...I can't believe it's taking days to get to the bottom of these afterthought picks.
