I got a call today from a friend of mine who covers an NFL team for a major paper. He’s always kind enough to hook me up with the inside dirt on his team, so I was happy to help him with his fantasy draft today. I basically, walked him through the first 6-7 rounds, and then he went off our stuff. The results were very, very good, so I thought I’d share. This looks like an All FantasyGuru.com Draft Plan team to me.

Only 10 teams, and the QBs did go early. I want one of the top QBs, but not if they are going too early, so we strayed away from getting one of the top guys. Here’s his team:

QBs: Romo, Favre
RBs: Tomlinson, Maurice Jones-Drew, Adrian Peterson, Brian Leonard
WRs: Steve Smith, Javon Walker, B. Berrian, Santonio Holmes, DJ Hackett, Devery Henderson
TEs: Vernon Davis, Owen Daniels
K: Rackers
DEF: Chicago

He’s a shaky #2 fantasy back at this point, but you might be able to get away with him as your #2 if you have a great team around him.  Lee Evans jumped over Donald Driver to the #13 spot at WR. This is because of yet another big game on Friday night and due to Driver’s foot issue. Driver should be ready for Week One, but that is not a lock just yet.  Bo Scaife has moved into the #12 position at TE. After scoring a TD last night and dropping another potential score, we’re ready [...]
