Lakenheath Draft Review 2009

Lakenheath Draft Rev
iew
Nitro Namby Pansies
B-
Best Pick: Ryan Grant (3)
Worst Pick: Romo (4)
Sleeper Jeremichael Finely GB TE
2010 Keeper: Matt Stafford
Evaluation: 2 QBs in the first 4 rounds is a waste. Romo will only play one week out of 16 and his draft spor would have been better spent on a Wes Welker, A Bryant or OchoCino. Love the double up at QB to guarantee a usable QB from Detroit after getting 2 QBs on the same bye initially.
Prediction: 6-7 but missed the playoffs

Army of Five
B
Best Pick: Ronnie Brown (2) Braylon Edwards (7) is a steal
Worst Pick: B Marshal (3) with suspension and off field issues could be a detriment
Sleeper: Matt Cassel (6)
2010 Keeper: Brady Quinn (17)
Evaluation: Weak at QB especially since neither Cassel (injury) nor Quinn (not named starter) may start week 1. Also weak at WR if Devin Hester is your WR2 (assuming B Marshall implodes)
Prediction: 8-5 sneaks into playoffs.

Cruisers
B+
Best Pick: Ray Rice (5), David Garrrard(6) and Brent Celek (9)
Worst Pick: Denver Defense (14) they did nothing to improve last years declining squad
Sleeper:
2010 Keeper:All four supplemental picks have that potential (E Graham, J Gage, Josh Morgan SF WR and Steve Smith NYG WR)
Evaluation: Solid draft with RB-WR-RB-WR-RB-QB-TE. Strong at RB and WR
Prediction: 9-4 Superbowl participant

Slams Slammers
B+
Best Pick: J Witten (3)
Worst Pick: Tynes (10) should have gone with a more conservative Kicker pick
Sleeper: Eddie Royal, WR, DEN if Marshall misses anytime Royal is huge
2010 Keeper: LeSean McCoy (15)
Evaluation: IF there is a weakness it may be at QB where an aging and injured Palmer competes with Hasselback for playing time.
Prediction: 9-4 Super Bowl Champ

Woody’s Warlocks
C-
Best Pick: Antonio Gates (2) perhaps the best TE in the league
Worst Pick: Matt Schuab (1) way too early even though I like his potential
Sleeper: Percy Harvin (8) WR MIN
2010 Keeper: Steve Breaston (15) WR AZ
Evaluation: I like all of the picks just not where they were drafted. 2 QBs in the first 4 round is overkill, as is 2 TEs in first 6 picks. The best DEF but in round 3 is too early.
Prediction: 4-9 last years SB champ cries in his beer and vows to do better next year.

Toks Terminators
B-
Best Pick: Greg Olsen (6) Keeper
Worst Pick: Michael Crabtree (15) this holdout will not see many fantasy points in 2009 but may prove to be a good keeper is stored on the roster all year long.
Sleeper: Willis McGahee (17) he looks like he may get some GL carries and could be the steal of the draft.
2010 Keeper: Crabtree (15)
Evaluation: Weak at QB (the other manning and Shaun Hill who may not be the starter after 6 games); although he has 3 QBs and that is good.
Prediction: 5-8

Cadillac Slim
C-
Best Pick: Kevin Walter (11)
Worst Pick: BUF defense in third round
Sleeper:TJHoo’s ya mamma (1) will surprise.
2010 Keeper: Shonn Greene (15)
Evaluation: Weak at RB. 4th and 9th are not the rounds you want to wait for RBs.. 2 QBs in first 7 rounds.
Prediction: 4-9 but wanting more

Neds Nutters
C+ (closer to B-)
Best Pick: Wes Welker (4)
Worst Pick: Brett Favre (7) as his QB1
Sleeper:Donnie Avery (8) and V Shiancothe (6)
2010 Keeper: Mark Sanchez (10)
Evaluation: RB-RB-WR-WR was a very solid start with great picks each round.
Prediction: 6-7 this could be better if Sanchez is a sleeper.

Sammy’s Slayers
B
Best Pick: Aaron Rodgers (4) I expect him to be a Top 3 QB
Worst Pick: Robert Royal (12) or Antonio Pittman (15) who may not make the 53 man roster cut
Sleeper: NE Defense or K Faulk (16)
2010 Keeper: Jeremy Maclin (18)
Evaluation: No real strengths and no real weaknesses. Just a good strong draft. I especially liked the cornering of the PHI WRs in Curtis and Mackin.
Prediction: 8-5 Playoff bound but loses in 2nd round

Spikings
B
Best Pick: Dallas Clark (5)
Worst Pick: Garrett Hartley (13)-rumors hint at a 4 game suspension coming soon
Sleeper: Rashad Jennings RB JAX
2010 Keeper: Mike Goodson (18) or Devone Bess (17)
Evaluation:
Prediction: 7-6 but look for a disappointing first round playoff loss.

Cowboys
B-
Best Pick: O Daniels (6);
Worst Pick: Derrick Ward (11), predict he shares the RB duties with Graham and Caddy Williams.
Sleeper: Willie Parker
2010 Keeper: Tashard Choice (16)
Evaluation: Too many “old names” (Brees, T.O., FWP, Holt and Bulger) means this is an old Cowboys team.
Prediction: 6-7 no playoffs as the Cowboys choke down the stretch.

Perverts of Pain
B+
Best Pick: Randy Moss (2)
Worst Pick: Chad Henne (18) say what???????????
Sleeper: Larry Johnson (3) and Donald Brown (7)
2010 Keeper: Ahmad Bradshaw (15), Evaluation: WR weak
Prediction: 8-5 and one playoff win moves this team a little further than last year.

Yellowfins
B+
Best Pick: Darren McFadden (3) Could have a top 10 RB there
Worst Pick: D McNabb (5) who has the same bye week as keeper Matt Ryan. TJ Duckett (16) who has no team.
Sleeper: Fred Jackson (12)
2010 Keeper: Earl Bennett (18)
Evaluation: Strong at RB and WR, but weak at TE.
Prediction: 8-5, First playoff visit by Yellowfins.

Crestview Crushers
C
Best Pick: Dwayne Bowe (4)
Worst Pick: Beanie Wells (2) WAY TOO EARLY for him to be drafted
Sleeper: Felix Jones (6)
2010 Keeper: Glen Coffee (15)
Evaluation:
Prediction: 6-5
