2010 Rookie Draft PPR/IDP PreCombine

[thewhyterabbit]

12 teamer... PPR... 1qb 2rb 2wr 1flex 1te 2LB, 2DE, 2DB ... this time of year again... whose up for it!!!'

three rounds.. and like always, we will do another after the nfl combine, and after the NFL draft!!!


1.Vaduke- Dez Bryant WR OKla State - In a PPR league I've got Bryant as the number one pick. I see Dez as a potential cornerstone player that can be built around for years to come. If you're picking in the number 1 spot because you earned it then I see the only elite WR (imo) in the draft as the obvious pick here. Drafting an elite WR will give you the time you need to build your team back into a contender. But, please take everything I say with a grain of salt as I've only been playing Dynasty for 3 years now.
2.salty dawg Jonathan Dwyer RB GA TECH. I like his potential to be the main guy more than Spiller which I think will result in more TD production.It was a toss up between the two and if I "really" were here" I may have tried to move down a spot or two. I thought Bryant would drop to me here.
3.Hosler - CJ Spiller RB clemson - I think Spiller will go at #2 most PPR leagues but that could change depending one where everyone ends up. I agree with Rob that Dwyer has more potential to be a TD hog workhorse which is very appealing. I like Spiller in this spot.
4.TWR- Ryan Matthews RB Fresno State - i think hes the second best all around back of the draft right behind dwyer... for some reason i have a feeling him or dwyer will end up in charger land.. he can handle a ton of carries.. and i think his combine will only increase his stock.
5.MrUButo Tim Teabow QB Florida I know this is probably a VERY unpopular pick here.. but depending on where he lands I think he could be a top 10 QB most of his career.. somthing along the lines of a jay cutler.
6.cowboys85 - Jahvid Best RB Cal - I'll take an RB who could be taken in the top 20 with the 6th pick any day. I have the 6th pick in one of my leagues and I'd be ecstatic if Best fell to me.
7.steelersfan - Demaryius Thomas - WR GT. In my opinion, the most naturally gifted WR of the rookie class but raw. Played in a very non-friendly WR system but the skill set is undeniable. Think Brandon Marshall without the "knucklehead" factor.
8.hot nikkels - Golden Tate, WR notre dame - I feel he is a steve smith(car) clone. Very explosive and feel he will transition well to the NFL.
9.Devil's Advocate - Dexter McCluster - RB/WR Ole Miss I know a lot of you will think this pick is early based on current data but I see McCluster as a fast riser once he flashes that world class speed at the combine. As a matter of fact come May I would be ecstatic if I were able to get Dexter this late. If he is drafted to the right team that will utilize his talents he will be a PPR machine.
10.grimace - Rolando McClain - LB Alabama - I see this guy as the next Patrick Willis, he may not be as a freak Physcially, but he has top notch ability, along with maybe being the smartest defender to come out of college in a long time. He's another coach on the field, will be an imediate impact and will put up top 10 LB numbers next year as a rookie. By smarts I'm talking football smarts.
11.Who Dey~Cincy-Toby Gerhart- RB Stanford- A bit early for this guy but I really like his size. If drafted to the right team he could have some nice numbers in the future.
12.Shawn - Arrelious Benn WR - Illinois - Quite a steal I think to get Benn in the last pick of the 1st round especially if this is the champion's draft pick. Benn should likely be taken in the 1st round of the real NFL draft and has the size and talent to easily become the WR #1 for some team, and I think he would've gone higher if Illinois didn't have such a bad team/quarterback last season.

Round 2

13.Vadukes - Anthony Dixon RB Miss State - I would gladly take Dixon in this spot. He checked in at 6'1 245lbs at the senior bowl. Watching some tape of this guy he seems to display a strong lower half which led to a lot of broken tackles. I could see him drafted in the late 2nd to early 3rd round as a poor mans version of Jonathan Dwyer. Some concerns about him being used as a fullback based upon size, but based on the tape of him I've watched, I see too much skill (vision, patience, broken tackles) for him not to be used as a RB at the next level.
14.salty dawg - Sam Bradford QB Oklahoma- I was between him,Blount and Eric Berry. Its a bit of a risk given the injury but if he turns out OK I would have been very happy walking away with Dwyer and the "healthy" Bradford.
15.Hosler LaGarrett Blount RB - Oregon. I see a lot of the same qualities in Dixon and Blount but I like Blount a little bit more. He is big and runs with a purpose. I think it is a great value at 2.3
16.TWR - Mardy Gilyard WR Cinn - his slight frame has me worried, but last time i passed on an electric player because of his frame it bit me... (desean jackson).. i think gilyard is pretty close talent wise... brandon lafell was another option here as well
17.MrUButo - joe mckight RB USC - wow i cant believe he's still not taken. first round is too high for this guy. but pick 17 is a minor steal
18.cowboys85 - Brandon LaFell WR LSU - I think LaFell is the 2nd best WR in the class behind Bryant and I like the comparisons between him and fellow LSU alum Dwayne Bowe.
19.steelersfan - Damian Williams, WR - USC - I'm happy to get Williams as the 7th WR off the board. I've seen him going in the 4-6 range.
20.hot nikkels - Jermaine Gresham, TE, Oklahoma - Would've drafted Damian Willams, but since he was taken I'm still happy taking a potential elite TE prospect.
21.Devil's Advocate - Jordan Shipley, WR, Texas I love this kids hands and and work ethic and can easily see him becoming a Wes Welker type in the NFL.
22.grimace - Stafon Johnson, RB USC Came back very fast after the career threatening injury. Was a top recruit coming out of highschool, and Carroll really loves smaller backs, so Johnson was over shadowed his entire career. He will drop in the actual draft because of injury concerns but he could turn into the next Pierre Thomas on the right team.
23.Who Dey~Cincy- Montario Hardesty, RB, Tennese - My 2nd RB chosen with great size, he also was just 0.3 behind Gerhart.
24.Shawn - Jimmy Claussen, QB, Notre Dame - Possibly the top QB on the board is great value at end of 2nd round, tough to pass up here!
