Well guys, it's almost that time. A time for beer, hot wings, and time away from the old ball and chain.

Let's get some draft talk going. Who do you have listed in your top 5?

1. Larry Johnson
2. L.T.
3. Tiki Barber
4. Shaun Alexander
5. Clinton Portis

I'm pretty sure there's already a thread about this.

I like LJ's chances of being big, but don't count out Priest Holmes if he does come back. Tomlinson might have even better numbers than last year with a "Rookie" at QB. I love Tiki, and not just because he was my numero UNO sleeper pick last year and helped win me a league, but no way he's having as good a year as he did last season, look out for more Brian Jacobs 1/2yd TD's too (ugh he pissed me off heh). Alexander should be awesome again, but I'm doubting his numbers just a little. And I'll never pick Portis, I just don't like the beloved patriot offense and I see him only having a few big running games.

I'd go, LT>LJ>Shaun>Steve Smith>Portis

But my sleeper... you'll want to watch out for Chris Chambers.

i like LT more than i like LJ, just because priest is still around.. but then again, rivers ain't all that, so if it turns our he can't throw, they're in a huge pile of crap... alexander should be really good.. consistant numbers, but not as good as last season..

sleeper pick.. alex smith!!! i might take a chance on him.. maybe

 

[Excelsior]

rivers ain't all that

How can you say that before he has been given a chance? Get back to me at the end of season.

And he can throw, I assure you.

Randy Moss is underrated in most drafts. Along with the Bears D, it's head and shoulders above the next best Defense.

I think Joe Horn, Daunte Stallworth, Reggie Bush, Ronnie Brown, Daunte Culpepper are also often underrated.

Kurt Warner is my #1 sleeper.

reggie bush isnt undrated. hes only going to get half the carries.

They can't keep 3 good RB's, one will be dealt.

Bush might get 50-70 receptions this year, it's obvious Brees loves to use his RB in the passing game.

Bush will get the most touches in NO no matter how they deal with the crowded RB position.

All this assuming they will get him signed

 

[BoldAsLove]

of course they will sign him...hes gonna put fans in the seats...if they dont meet his demands they are jackasses.
fans will revolt and they will be forced to move to Los Angeles like earlier planned.

PS - sign up for my fantasy league in the link above
