Dorky draft guide nugget of the night
In the last 45 years, only three receivers have more yards in their first two seasons than Marques Colston: Jerry Rice, Randy Moss, and Torry Holt. No one has more receptions.
While we're here, may as well point out he's seventh in fantasy points and touchdowns over that span. This gives a good clue about our magazine battle for tomorrow. Carry on.

If it weren't for Matt Leinart, the number one position would be a toss up between Fitz and Moss.
The NFL is changing. Considering the mileage on LT and the strong possibility the next two RBs (AP, SJax) will miss time this year - and every year - with injury, you're justified in taking these 7 WRs before ANY RBs. Go with elite wideouts and platoon the runners to win in '08.

T.O. is #2.

Stud WRs and scrap RBs will get you in the playoffs only to lose in the first round. When the weather changes, even the Pats have to go to the ground game.

Johnson at the #2 spot? I don't think so.

I'm not ready to discount the importance of RB's quite yet.

TO at 2, huh? Keep in mind he turns 35 early in the season and is only signed through this year. Though I'm confident he has a couple of good years left in him, age and a contract squabble, TO-style are pretty big risks.
