[CBFF] CBFF FFL draft grades

[Phil DeNomme]

"Iggy's Emus: D+
This team has no RBs, but has the best WR corp by far. Will need Tatum Bell
to become starter in Denver, Fred Taylor to not actually show his age, and
have Marion Barber be the starter in Dallas and be a stud. Oh, and an
injured kicker in round 7."

Yea, well, I missed my draft till the last 3 picks so don't blame the kicker
on me.  ;)  Lol.

Keep in mind a few things when looking at the grades:
-These are my grades for your team, since I'm the Commish I rule the land.
-The grades are in no way a prediction on how a team will do over the
season. The draft is only one facet of season success.
-I tried my best concealing the names of the innocent (and in this case the
guilty as well).
-I am mean.

Dutch Bears: C
Depth at the important RB and WR positions, but "depth" and "quality depth"
are two different things. Went with old guys at WR (Galloway, McCardell).
Took Chicago (D) too early in the draft with the #24 pick overall leaving
plenty of talent on the board. As long as Mr. TD is scoring will be a tough
team but you hate depending on one player over an entire season.

Wazivok's Goin On??: B+
No Bears this season?!?!?!? Would have received an "A" if he hadn't taken a
K (Feely) so early in the draft with so many decent skill position players
left.

Battle Sharks: B
Solid draft considering "the GM" was grillin' at the time. Addai might have
been a bit of a reach considering he's unproven, plus Branch's season is in
question. And why two kickers when BYE replacements are so readily
available?

Survive (or Parish): C
Reached on Hasselbeck (#28 overall), old WRs (R. Smith, Glenn, Keyshawn),
and what's the point of having 3 QBs on the roster?

Verona Beeners: C-
Got caught up in the round 2 WR run and took Boldin, a solid choice but left
some good RBs on the board. Overall, weak at RB the most important FFL
position. A kicker in round 9, zoinks!!

Limp Ditkas: C+
Considering the uncertainty surrounding Portis it is difficult to argue him
being a poor choice at #6 overall. There's no true fantasy #1 WR on the
roster though Houshmandzadeh could put up good numbers. T. Jones might split
carries later in the year, Dillon is getting old, and Priest is likely done
for his career. Where's the production going to come from?

Remember Walter: A-
The only bad pick was taking Ahman Green at #55 overall. As long as TO
behaves this will be a team to be reckoned with.

Des Moines Dragons: C
Solid starting RBs, decent WRs, a resurgent McNair, but what possessed this
team to pick Shockey and Crumpler in successive rounds so early??

Alvis' Roughrider: D
No slack for the auto drafter. Dominick Davis, kicker in round 7, defense in
round 8. Nuf said. There's actually acouple very talented players on this
team who can have occasional big weeks so watch out.

Manhattan Maulers: A+
What else can you say other than CBFF FFL 2006 Champs!!!!

Iggy's Emus: D+
This team has no RBs, but has the best WR corp by far. Will need Tatum Bell
to become starter in Denver, Fred Taylor to not actually show his age, and
have Marion Barber be the starter in Dallas and be a stud. Oh, and an
injured kicker in round 7.

Pam's Team: B
Looks solid at the starting positions but the bench is weak. Picked a kicker
in round 7 when adding depth to more important postions would have been
better.
