That's true. I was hoping Anthony Thomas would go to the Dolphins

25% of owners will be out of the mix right after the draft. These are people who draft players from their favorite team a couple rounds early. This list also includes people who try "different" strategies, like waiting till round 9 to get a QB or taking 3 WR to start the draft.

[/QUOTE]Let me look at my mock draft in Fantasy Sports magazine..... ah yes.... Gordon Gecko selects his 1st QB in round 9.... Byron Leftwich!

I know, I know.... it was only a mock draft!

Honestly, I can't believe anyone investing $1,250 to get in this is going to draft people from their favorite teams, but you probably are right. I'm sure there will be some people who have "money to blow" and enamored with the $200 K grand prize, but probably don't have the experience to be here.

It's happened in the WCOFF last year and it's happening in the NFBC this year.

Also in that 25%, some owners will be selecting their BIG sleepers a round or two early. the list goes on and on...
