Based on my drafts so far (Fantasy Football Index Experts-Auction, Fantasy Diehards Magazine Expert, Fantasy Sports Magazine-K2 Experts League, RapidDraft, etc) here are my four picks:
QB Brett Favre-FA You know chances are good that he plays in Minn this year; so why not take a flyer on him as your QB2 and see what happens. Most cheat sheets are listing him at 33rd QB and frankly I would rather draft him on upside than many of the QBs after 20th.
QB Trent Edwards-BUF Many of the rankings have him at somewhere around 20th. I see lots of potential here throwing to possibly two Top 20 WRs. He should be drafted as a QB2 with lots of upside and little downside.
RB Reggie Bush-NO In PPR leagues Bush is more valuable and he still is going 40th overall. Last year he was in the Top 10 half way through the season before his injury. He has great hands and moves when he gets in space. He will compliment Pierre Thomas and could be a Top 15 RB. He is a steal in the early 4th round these days.
RB Julius Jones RB-SEA Jim Mora likes to run and this will be the last chance for Jones. He is listed as 29th on the RB rankings but keeps falling in drafts to more of a 35th RB spot. If SEA does not get any outside RB help in the form of a FA then plan on Jones as a Top 25 RB.
WR Donnie Avery-WR STL Avery is going in the 8th round (WR32) in most drafts but this #1 WR at STL (Torry Holt moves on to JAX) should be a Top 20 WR. Look for big things as the Rams play from behind more often than not.
TE Owen Daniels-HOU Daniels had 70 catches for 862 yards and two TDs last year and yet is the 90th overall player and 8th TE in many rankings this year. He has improved in every year going into this his fourth year. He is a Top 5 TE (especially in PPR Leagues), nudging out KW2 who goes to a new TB team.
