I voted for myself, though I admit I don't think it's very fair. It would be more fair to judge this year's draft and next year's in combination. Next year's first rounder seems a steep price, but time will tell. Given the condition of my roster, I thought a future 1st was worth two 2nd rounders, especially when one of them was the first pick in the round (a virtual 1st rounder!) and I was getting what I felt was a solid late first-round talent (Reed) who was less of a gamble than several players who went before him. I really think if the NFL weren't so obsessed with the tape measure and the stopwatch, Reed would have been the #2 WR taken.
I'm sure many will disagree, but I feel like I got three 1st round talents this year, plus an extra late pick next year. What's more important from the fun perspective, is that I got the three players I really wanted on my roster (having conceded I'd never get Shockey, of course!).
The biggest knock against my draft, I feel, is revealed in my next statement: I thought the next best drafts were by the Freedom and the Predators. (Hey, aren't those the two teams I traded picks to?
) If I were a fan of either Lelie or Gaffney then I would humble myself and pick them over me, but I don't go for sprinters or Gators in this league.
