Round Four: Round four started
with the selecting of the first tight end, Jason Witten.
Team L said, "I knew if I didn't grab Witten or Gates
now, they would be gone and even though I need another
receiver I think I can get a sleeper second receiver."
Well Team L may be right, but the receiver run was on.
Brandon Marshall, Chad Johnson, Steve Smith, Plaxico Burress,
Torry Holt, Plaxico Burress, Greg Jennings and Wes Walker
all went in the fourth round. TE Antonio Gates also was
chosen. QB Jay Cutler was chosen by Team E and he said,
"I', watching all the receivers go one-by-one and
I still need my second WR, but I think Cutler is going
to breakout in '08 and become a op fantasy QB. I think
he will finish right with Carson Palmer who went with
the 33rd overall pick. So I think Cutler at 44 is fine.
He definitely would have been gone if I didn't get him
now. I can wait for a receiver.
Round Five: A few more receivers
went in round 5, but this round belonged to the Quarterbacks.
Ben Roethlisberger, Derek Anderson, Eli Manning, Donovan
McNabb and Matt Hasselbeck were all selected in this round.
Team B said, "Roethlisberger is an underrated fantasy
QB. He is young and only getting better. Getting such
a good QB in round 5 after getting WR Greg Jennings a
few picks before has given me a strong draft. Team E drafted
Selvin Young and he said, "Well, he could be a home
run, but he could just be back-up. Shanahan is a fantasy
manager's nightmare. You never know what he will do with
the position, but you do know that whoever plays will
be productive and that makes Young a worthwhile gamble
in round 5.
Round Six: Round 6 started
with Team L selecting WR Santonio Holmes. He said, "I'm
pleased with Holmes. I took Witten in round 4 with the
hopes of getting a good WR later and I feel Holmes is
fine and could take a big step in 2008". Team J took
rookie RB Matt Forte and he said, "I might have a
gem in the 6th round. You have to gamble to win and Forter
has to start in Chicago. Who else will? I think he is
a 1,100 yard 8 TD back. I know Edgerrin James and a few
other veterans were available, but I like getting a guy
with upside, not downside."
