Last year I made the call to draft Maroney over Westbrook. Obviously that didn't work out!

Go ahead and list your biggest 2007 mistake. Free yourself from the demons by talking about it!!

Mine was drafting the rock-solid Rudi Johnson @1.13. Then I followed him up by taking the upside RB in B. Jacobs in the 3rd.

Maroney first round, Lee Evans third and Darrell Jackson fifth. I thought my receivers were solid until week 2 lol

After getting Westbrook in the first, I took M. Harrison in the second (over my second choice...T.Owens)...Then, I took Javon Walker in the third, when I really didn't even like him. It's the last time I'll draft someone I don't like...ESPECIALLY so early in a draft. As if that wasn't bad enough I took Bulger AGAIN. My bromance just wasn't over yet with Bulger, and I guess I'm a gluttin for punishment because I took him last year, after having him the year before. He ALWAYS gets hurt.

BUT, since I took Bulger, I decided to have a formidable backup and took Rivers in round 9. Thinking this was the best strategy I could have ran. If Bulger gets hurt, I'm still covered. WRONG. Both QB's sucked. Harrison got hurt. Walker sucked. My team was the worst team I've ever drafted in four years in the NFFC.

I'm pisssed off now. Thanks for clearing the cobwebs Mark.

Passing on Wes Welker for the San Diego defense in round 8.

At the time, I already had Fitz, Colston, and B.Edwards at WR (and got Bowe-flex later), so I chose the top D remaining on my board.

Not like San Diego was awful (#1 defense), but oh what it could have been with Welker!!! :eek:

Just to clarify about Javon Walker, Javon WAS injured BEFORE the season even began (an update came out in early August).

Only a matter of time before he was going to break down. :(

AMEN brother Gekko.... AMEN!!!!

I knew Walker had injury concerns. But for some reason, I called his name out, and as I did it, I knew it was the wrong call. And yes he was hurt for most of the year, but when he came back, he sucked. Because he wasn't healthy. Because he wasn't right. Because he sucked.

One week last year, I had the lowest NFFC score of all time. Someone beat me with a lower score a few weeks later. But this team sucked altogether.

I'm going to go out today, and cut people off on the road, go first at 4 way stop signs even when I didn't make it there first, and cut someone in line at Target today...Just because Gekko brought up these bad memories of last season...My worst fantasy season in 17 years. :mad: ;) :D
