Mock Results
We just wrapped up our second Rotoworld Mock Draft, which will go into our second magazine.

12.10: Michael Pittman
1.09: Marion Barber
6.01: Felix Jones
6.10: Rudi Johnson

Undrafted: Chris Perry
10.04: Matt Leinart

Selvin looks like a steal there.....unless the curse of Shanahan dooms him.

No one ever mentions Kenny Irons when discussing Bengals backs.
They invested a pretty high pick on him, and he was playing pretty well before the season-ending injury. What kind of role will he have in the offense?

I don't touch Denver backs, so no opinion on Young/Torain/Pittman...
However, I think Rudi Johnson at the end of the 6th is great value, especially since the Bengals don't have much behind him except an aging Watson and an injury riddled Perry right now. Maybe Irons will be in the mix late in the year or in 09.

Irons never made it out of the pre-season so I'm not sure about the 'playing pretty well' part.
But the reason he isn't mentioned is because he will be on the PUP in a best case scenario (I think you have to sit out a minimum of 6 games)... and worst case gets put on the IR and misses the entire season.

The only time I have ever used a Denver player I got mugged because of their coach. I quit using them. Also don't put all your Irons in one fire!

Mark my words, Barber will be a bust this year! No way he is worth a 1st round pick....
