Fantasy Football Draft (part one)

Filed under: Entertainment, Sports — posted @ 1:45 pm on August 27, 2006

I had my first fantasy draft of the season last night. Its a 10 team Yahoo! league and I picked last. All the top RBs were long gone by the time it got to me but I got two picks in a row each time. Edge was the only top back left but he is viewed as “damaged goods” since he is with Arizona this year. I’m hoping his skills will win the day there. Reggie Wayne was available when I got to wide receiver, that’s a no brainer. With the Colts running game in limbo, Manning and crew are going to open up an aerial attack. With Harrison double and triple teamed, Wayne is going to get plenty of catches.
Joseph Addai (the Colts first round pick) was available late so I grabbed him too on the off chance that the good things Manning and Dungy have been saying about him are true. There is talk that he could be the starter early in the season.
