re: RMD 2011 - In the Books!

It just has to be a realistic team is the way I look at it. You could have 2 TE if you want but then you sacrifice a WR.

You just need to be able to line up in a realistic set.

shite, there goes that 21st round FB I was going to take!

But seriously. I believe it was OUandLSUfan last year that ran a wishbone offense, which allowed him to select 3 RBs. Now he still had 11 offensive players, but did not have a TE, which is really hard to find outside of the top 10 or so. In fact, what is the difference of someone selecting 3 WRs and one APB and saying they are running a spread?

I think it is a little more fair for everyone to select the same offesive set, or something close to it. Now this is just my opinion, and not what I think we should do for this draft.

More than likely, I will select a FB, and if that puts me behind the 8-Ball, than so be it. I just think it is harder to put together an entire team, instead of just throwing players together. Of course, teams now-a-days don't have FBs, so maybe my point it moot.

Chit. I just saw that OLdIowa wrote the same as me, but with a lot less wording. Damn I type too much.

Dan, I emailed you my picks because I'll likely be out for most of the weekend.

Last year I went with 1 running back, 1 tight end and 3 WRs. I am sure I will do the same this year unless I grab a pro style qb. If Wilder was still available I would grab him and put him at fullback. That is where I predict he ends up.

tell him to have his next pick ready.

JG77 is online right now.

Lets get this thing rolling. shite this is taking too long.

Kiehl Frazier
Mike Blakely

Sorry, felt like I was running in to beat the Bills to the podium.

Took Frazier because he will likely see some playing time as a freshman, and then has every chance to be the starter his sophomore year and beyond. Also fits that system really well. He'll be playing behind a pretty solid Oline once they develop so I like that aspect.

Blakely might have been a reach as he'll probably never be THE guy in the backfield at Florida, but I like squatty backs with speed and change of direction. I had Aaron Green and Herschel Sims above Blakely and would have taken them instead.

I'll check back next week and see if it's close to my turn again.

Fonz takes Brandon Shell. OT from South Carolina.

Jesus that was all so fast. I'm really dodging bullets here!

I have to go to a meeting. Dan has my picks. Ya'll have fun; I won't be around much until Sunday late when I get back from NOLA.

Frazier is the most high risk/high reward player in this class. Little known fact, Shiloh Christian runs Malzahns offense. It is a slimmed down version, but Frazier already knows the basics. IMO, Frazier starts immediately at Auburn. Then there is the fact Malzahn leaves and the possibility of sanctions. It will be interesting to watch things develop with Frazier.
