Points-Per-Reception Industry Draft
I just wrapped up a fantasy football draft for Krause Publications on CBS Sportsline. The league, which will be played out, awards one point per reception and six points per passing touchdown. It was a 16-round draft with 12 participants. I drafted eighth overall. Here's how my team turned out:
QB Jay Cutler (8.5)
RB Steven Jackson (1.8)
RB Marion Barber (2.5)
WR Dwayne Bowe (3.8)
WR Eddie Royal (4.5)
WR Lee Evans (6.5)
TE Jeremy Shockey (10.5)
FLX Joseph Addai (5.8)
K Ryan Longwell (15.8)
DEF Giants (13.8)
BN Ray Rice (7.8)
BN Carson Palmer (9.8)
BN Kevin Curtis (11.8)
BN Josh Morgan (12.5)
BN Mike Walker (14.5)
BN Tashard Choice (16.5)
Here are some notables that weren't drafted:
1. Broncos TE Tony Scheffler
2. 49ers QB Shaun Hill
3. Steelers TE Heath Miller
4. Ravens DEF
5. Dolphins QB Chad Pennington
6. Seahawks WR Deion Branch
7. Rams QB Marc Bulger
8. Titans TE Bo Scaife
9. Raiders QB JaMarcus Russell
10. Packers RB Brandon Jackson
Comments
jay cutler in the 8th rd, with 6pt Passing TD's is just silly. same for palmer a rd later. my god.
addai in the 5th.. unbelievable. now thats value.
.... damn.. the whole team is value now that i look at it. every rd, there was a good pick just laying there. except for curtis and shocky. i would have gone many other ways there - v.davis and another value wr/rb. some other te and best available. those two just dont cut it for me but not a big deal.
very well done silva. but, aw come on evan, why u gotta reach for a kicker ;). last rd only. u know that

because i love me some ryan longwell this year. he's dead accurate and MIN will score far more with favre at quarterback. (and i knew no one would take tashard choice before i was picking on the turn)

Holy value, Batman!
Gotta agree with scott c. on this one ... perhaps even more when you consider I'm an SJax supporter.
I especially like the ridiculously high upside that fell into your lap at the end of the draft. Clearly, the nap you took during the extended 10/11 turn kept you fresh until the end.
