It's in a NFL public league, 12 teams.
I picked 2nd overall in a "snake style" draft:
1. Round (2nd OVR): LaDainian Tomlinson (RB SD)
2. Round (23rd OVR): Torry Holt (WR STL)
3. Round (26th OVR): Corey Dillon (RB NE)
4. Round (47th OVR): Brian Westbrook (RB PHI)
5. Round (50th OVR): Darrell Jackson (WR SEA)
6. Round (71th OVR): Jake Plummer (QB DEN)
7. Round (74th OVR): DST Cowboys (DST DAL)
8. Round (95th OVR): Freddie Jones (TE ARI)
9. Round (98th OVR): Keyshawn Johnson (WR DAL)
10. Round (119th OVR): Jay Feely (K ATL)
11. Round (122th OVR): Michael Clayton (WR TB)
12. Round (143th OVR): DST Bears (DST CHI)
13. Round (146th OVR): Carson Palmer (QB CIN)
14 Round: (167th OVR): Erron Kinney (TE TEN)
A few notes:
- I wanted to draft 2 RBs in the first two rounds, however getting Holt at #23 was too good to pass on. Opinions?
- Originally I targeted Brian Westbrook for my 2nd pick, however Corey Dillon was still available in round 3 and I think he's better. It turned out that Westbrokk was still on the board late in round 4, what I really didn't understand.
Do you think Levens will take a lot of carries from him or do you think it was a good idea to grab him in round 4?
- imho getting Darrell Jackson in round 5 was a steal
- I really blew it in round 7 when I accidently picked the Cowboys when I actually wanted the Dolphins. I just mis-clicked... :(
- I tried to avoid homerism, however I simply HAD topick Clayton in round 11 :D

*LT is great, he was my #1
*I still wouldve stuck with a RB in rnd 2 - but thats me. But depending on who was left, you may have done the right thing (Holt is definately top notch)
*Dillon (IMO) was a wasted pic. From what Ive seen so far he isnt gonna be worth much. He couldnt get anything going against a moderate Cin D.
* Westbrook should do ok - I dont think Levens will do much But I would still try to get a solid #2 RB
* oh, and D Jackson in rnd 5 is incredible!
EDIT: Ime a greight spellur!

I sure hope for your sake either Plummer or Palmer shows up this year. Neither of those are top-flight fantasy QBs. I don't mind the Torry Holt pick at 23 - Corey Dillon should be a serviceable pick-up for a #2 RB, especially since you have LT in your pocket.
Darrell Jackson's another good pickup. I like your WR corps, for the most part - Key and Clayton will get plenty of catches in their respective locations. It's just TDs with Key that I worry about a bit, but with Vinny maybe he'll have more luck (he did in 1998, although it sure ain't 1998 anymore).
I like the Cowboys' D better than the Dolphins now that Ogunleye is gone. I've always thought the Dolphins' D was a little overrated coming into this season. The Cowboys O may stink, but their D is still going to be solid. Dat Nguyen is one of the most underrated players in the NFL.
Feely's not a particuarly reliable kicker. I'd get rid of him if you could.
The Bears' D is a good pick-up. I think they're going to be a lot better on D than people think.
Overall, it's solid on the WR and RB side, but I'd remain a little worried about your QB situation.

Thanks for your assessments.
I could still pick up Martin Gramatica (he got undrafted), but I'm not sure if he'll really score more points than Feely.
With Vick back, Feely should get plenty of opportunities, shouldn't he?
And I don't really worry about my QBs.
I tried to build my team around RBs and WRs, an average QB like Plummer and a sleeper like Palmer are good enough imho.

Well, due to the "snake style" draft, there were only 2 picks between my 2nd-rounder and my 3rd-rounder.
These were McNair and the Panthers, so maybe if I had taken Dillon, Westbrook or Travis Henry in round two, chances are that Holt would have been gone in round 3...
EDIT: Ime a greight spellur!
So em eye!
:D

I like Holt @23, good value. Between Dillon and Westbrook you should be fine at rb2. I would waive a b/u kicker and p/u another project qb. Gives you 3 chances for one to emerge or 3 options if you are starting a qb based on each weeks matchups. . You can always p/u a k for a bye week. I don't know who is available but maybe someone like K.Collins who may put up #s if he wins the starting job.
