Fantasy Football 2010 - Team: Cromartie's Daycare

Cromartie's Day Care
1. (4) Drew Brees
My keeper from last year, it was between him and Randy Moss. I think Brees has a higher upside.

2. (21) Miles Austin - A bit of a stretch in round 2 for a complete unknown last year, but was the highest rated player available when I did pick. Fitzgerald, Ryan Grant, etc. were all gone by the time I picked. Has funny teeth.

3. (28) Jahvid Best - I was probably drinking the Yahoo Kool Aid on this one, they really loved this guy.

4. (45) LeSean McCoy - Great value picking down this far. I typically like drafting players on good units (I passed over Calvin Johnson earlier in the draft for fear of double/triple coverages), and this is no exception.

5. (52) Chad Ochocinco - The great value continues. I would think he could avoid some of the double coverages with TO on the other side. My only fear is that the Bungles will run the ball a very high percentage of the time.

6. (69) Owen Daniels - Was a stud last year until he got hurt. Since I had the WR/RB positions full, I took a little chance on him. I do love the Texans' offense in general, and I think that Andre Johnson and the RBs that they have will open it up for him.

7. (76) Marion Barber - More great value late in the draft, only fear is Felix Jones getting a lot of the carries. I'm thinking that the 'Boys offense will very good this year.

8. (93) Sidney Rice - in all honesty, I totally forgot he was hurt. In checking out the average draft slot, he was much higher than this (I think he was in the 40's), which means that most Yahoo users don't know that he's hurt either. Since he's on the bench anyways, I still like the pick.

9. (100) T.J. Houshmandzadeh - Very consistent.

10. (117) LaDainian Tomlinson - Probably one of my favorite picks for the pick #. I still think he has potential to bust out the 2008 form.

11. (124) Kellen Winslow - More depth at TE, but that Tampa offense scares me.

12. (141) Matthew Stafford - Loving the upside for him, especially this late in the draft. I'm hoping that Brees will play the whole season, so I shouldn't have to play him that much. Probably good trade bait.

13. (148) David Akers - Yeah, I needed a kicker.

14. (165) Tennessee - Took over Indy's D just because of their bye week.

Another Mike Tomlin Gem

This guy is ridiculous. He says he's worried about Big Ben personally and the franchise, and when asked what he means by that, here's his answer:

I've said one comment and that's all I'm going to say," he added. "I'm not going to comment on the comment."
