Welcome to the Whiz Draft Crew's (WDC) inaugural draft. I will be running these drafts until either the Whiz software is up and running or the season starts! 

I will try to keep a list updated of all the players selected and the team rosters. We will rotate order meaning if you draft 1 this time you draft 12 next, 2nd would then draft 1st etc... If anyone already knows a draft position they want to practice or a scoring format you want to use just let me know.

If you are reading this and you would like to be an alternate please post or PM me and I will add you to the list.

The first draft will be a RE-DRAFT NOT DYNASTY (thanks Chris);

A. 12 rounds - serpentine
B. 12 teams
C. 1 point per reception
D. starting requirement of 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 Flex (RB,WR,TE), 1 TE, 1 K, 1 team D
E. performance scoring with QBs getting 6 points for passing tds

I have moved the Rosters and the players/round selected to a new string in my blog, WDC Mock Draft 1 Players taken/rosters



Post your picks here and away we go....................

1.02 - Brian Westbrook

Have to go with Westbrook here, especially in a PPR league. Westbrook just seems to keep getting better and I look for it to continue in 2008.

I here guys .. didn't think this would start before my finals were up .. one sec

1.04 - Joseph Addai


Tough choice really here, but going with the age differnece in my choice at this spot.My next choice I feel might be seeing alot more RBBC action this year.

1.06 Larry Johnson  KC RB

I am going to gamble here and hope LJ can be 75%of what he did before the injury.  If he is 90%...then you guys can fight for 2nd.  Not the safest pick....but playing it safe will get you around 8-5 and a 1st Rd play-off loss.

Rod emailed me yesterday with his choices and his number 1 choice, a good one I might add was Marshawn Lynch. I think this second year Rb has a big breakthrough this year and is easily a top 10 RB.

1.08 RB Marshawn Lynch goes to Rodhands

My bad guys.  I didn't realize this had started. 

1.10  Ryan Grant, RB, Green Bay Packers

This was a pick made on upside.  Grant was a HUGE performer last year in about a half of the season. 

Great job with first round everyone.

1.12 Tom Brady

While I do not expect a repeat of last years amazing performance, Brady will still be the number 1 qb and #1 scorer for all positions in this format IMO ( 6 point passing tds). I believe Brady will need to throw it as many times as last year because their revamped secondary will be giving up many more points! (too many toys, sorry Manning fans) .  The last justification (or is it rationalization) is that  the other rbs left have issues (IMO) or are in a RBBC . (Fact: Brady had 490 points in this format last year a full 130 points more than any qb and at least 110 pts higher than any rb) Normaly I am not a fan of taking a qb in the first or second round.


2.01 Randy Moss

First I am NOT a Patriot fan but much of the same logic applies to this pick. Moss should have another outstanding year and the combo of Brady to Moss should be a formidable match up for the teams with the top tiered RBs. Moss blew away all the WR competition last year posting 387 points in this format that was 70 points more than any other WR and 10 points more than any rb.

Since its the first draft of the year... from the 12 hole... lets see what happens. 

Brady + Moss in 2007 = 877 points...2008 = ?

2.03   T. Owens.

Looking at the RB's left, I realized that I had issues with the 2 I wanted so I went for a TOP WR.  TO is the man in Dallas and he will want to try to keep pace with Moss.  In a 3 WR lineup, I needed I must play.
