    So, what, go WR and WR or should I draft another RB?

    Unless it's the Bears or Ravens, don't bother. After that, there are about 10 teams that are all the same. Grab a WR and either another WR, RB or TE.

    I think it's clear to see that Snuka and I will be experiencing fantasy draft withdrawal in the coming weeks! :D

    As soon as someone takes the one defensive team, hope you're close and take the other. Otherwise, wait forever for the next one.
     
  6. HHAHAH!!! Hell yeah we will...

    I'd go WR/RB--- look for Cadillac or Betts and Coles or Reggie Brown...

    Cadillac has premium mid-round value, Betts is excellent trade bait, and it's about the right time to get him, Coles will be a 90-catch WR and Brown is McNabb's main target...

    I have fourth pick, draft starts in five minutes. Frank Gore is the fourth-rated player overall by the site.
     
  9. the problem with the Bears, is you don't know how Harris' loss will affect them. The problem with the Ravens, you don't know how the loss of A. Thomas will affect them.

    You never want to be the guy to draft defense too early
     
  10. I'd take Addai over gore in a quick minute...
