    Ryan with the very next pick at 81.
    DeAngelo Williams at 100
    Rivers at 101

    Hoping to land Ertz, Hunter, and Cardinals D in the next few and possibly Cooper.
    I realize I have three mediocre RBs on the bench. Hoping to use one or two as a trade after the draft or the early weeks. Williams was probably a big reach.

    Cardinals D/ST in the 12 and Ertz in the 13th.
    Two more wideouts and a kicker and I'm done.

    Damn, Stafford and RGIII went EARLY.

    And I totally agree on byes. I think you're better off just giving up most of your guys in the same week than spreading them out. Better to lose one week for sure than potentially 4-5.

    Solid points and I agree. But, I got a good tight end in Thomas instead of snagging Julio and followed that with Cruz and Garcon.
    I think I did okay with some late round picks in the WR area with Garcon, Hunter and Cooper.
    And I did pick up Ertz in the 14th I think.

    Three straight hours of drafting on this Christmas morning.

    Started off with the 9th pick in a 10-team standard league. Scoring weighted toward QBs, so they go early and often. The Big Three went 2, 4 and 5. Anyway ...

    Graham
    Lacy
    Ball
    Brady
    Crabtree
    Patterson
    J. Bell
    A. Johnson
    Roethlisberger
    Tate
    Bengals
    Hunter
    Hopkins
    Walsh
    Eagles
    Zuerlein

    Then came the 12-team PPR I had been practicing way too much for. Had the 12th pick. Things started out according to plan, but once Vereen and Spiller were gone by the time my third pick rolled around, I more or less punted on RB. Easily the weakest area of my team.

    Marshall
    Brees
    Jennings
    V. Jackson
    P. Thomas
    Sanders
    Ertz
    T. Williams
    Wilson
    A. Williams (handcuff)
    Ravens
    Greene
    Rodgers
    Bryant
    Kearse (Mr. Irrelevant)

    I need Thomas to catch 100 balls and Sanders to have a career year.

    Nice that Brees fell into your lap though.

    I have my 12-team ppr work draft Tuesday. Pretty stoked for that one. This draft is a bit more interesting as we throw $1 into the pot for every trade or FA/waiver transaction versus the one last night.

    We did that one year, and it was pretty cool.
