Got him at 2.12 in the online draft sunday. Peterson/SJax is going to be a sweet combo! I realize the rams suck, but not many backs are capable of 300+ carries and 50 receptions. He will also do better than his 4TDs last year.
Im considering myself $50,000 richer. If you don't mind rounds 3-5.

Instead of Smith I could have had: Crabtree, D. Jackson, TO, Bowe, Nicks, Sims Walker (those were all picked in between 4.01 and 5.12. Interested in who you would have went with.
Instead of Ocho and Celek could have had guys like Knox, Wallace, etc...
Again, Im looking forward to 50K.

why on earth go running back again with your 3rd pick?

Colts took him at 2.9 so, as Sandman stated earlier, i had to settle for DWill. but i would have had a "warmer fuzzy" with MJD and SJax.

To me it really doesn't matter what position they are, teams that win don't bust on their first 5 or so picks. Then you are smart picking up Free Agents. We get a flex spot, and I think there is a great chance he finishes top 10. The only other player I was considering was D-Jax. But then after seeing the runs on WR's I thought HB was better value.
Due to having 3 studs I figured I could ignore the position the rest of the draft and snag up WR's. While everyone else was drafting WRs, I snagged RB's, while they were looking for RBs I snagged up WRs. Don't follow the trend...set the trend.

good luck buddy.
3 rbs with one of them having the injury record of sjax, and one being a rookie would scare the life out of me.
