Hey Tom you should grabbed Jamal at the eighth spot..he's good for the first 10 weeks of the season...until the D.O.C get their hands on him....

WOW!!!

I can't believe Jamal slipped out of the 1st round! Even if he misses two weeks, he deserves a spot in the 1st round. Now if he misses the 2nd half of the season.....

Edge and Faulk in the same draft is either pure brilliance or sheer madness.

At least you made Gekko proud with the Jackson pick.

Tom Kessenich · Post by **Tom Kessenich** » Wed Aug 18, 2004 8:31 am

I really deliberated on Faulk. He's a huge risk obviously, but with 1 point/per reception I couldn't see passing on him in favor of Dillon. What the Faulk pick did, though, was force me to take Jackson which prevented me from taking a WR in the fifth. But with the Rams RB as the RB2, Greg's team should be in very good shape.

Fantasy Football Index is living up to it's reputation that it gained by naming Rod Smith WR #4. They took Q-dog with the 15th pick and Wheatley in the next round with the 34th pick.

Dumb, dumb, dumb

Now either one of those guys could be legit this year. I don't want to discuss the merits of their abilities. But both could have been taken rounds later. Q-dog would surely have been there in the 4th, if not the 5th or 6th and Wheatley, mu gosh, could have been had in the 5th or 6th.

These guys give fantasy football advice?????

As for Faulk, problem is you won't know who to start. He's always a gametime decision and they lie.
