A Fantasy Mock Draft: Round 2 | PhillyFan83

For those new to this, I started a mock draft of team A-J. I will be picking for each team as if I were the manager.

Here's the 1st Round Results:

Team A: LT
Team B: ADP
Team C: Brian Westbrook
Team D: Joseph Addai
Team E: Steven Jackson
Team F: Tom Brady
Team G: Marshawn Lynch
Team H: Randy Moss
Team I: Clinton Portis
Team J: Tony Romo

So here's round 2, with team J having the first pick.

Team J: Larry Johnson RB
Team I: Marion Barber III RB
Team H: Frank Gore RB
Team G: Terrell Owens WR
Team F: Braylan Edwards WR
Team E: Reggie Wayne WR
Team D: Ryan Grant RB
Team C: Peyton Manning QB
Team B: Maurice Jones-Drew RB
Team A: Larry Fitzgerald WR

The obvious: A round that was dominated by WRs and RBs. A more popular trend has been RB-WR with the great depth and emergance at the WR position. We saw 4 teams take the RB-RB combo, 3 take the RB-WR combo, 1 took QB-RB, while another took QB-WR. Team H paired up Moss with Gore.

Riskiest pick: Frank Gore- I'm still not sold on this guy. He's a 2nd round pick though.

A. Injury issues. Hurt last year. How will he rebuild?
B. Shakey o-line.
C. No QB. Teams will stack the line on Gore.

I feel that a WR in the 2nd round is the "safest" pick.

Note: Manning a risky pick? Never before, but after being unsure about his status in the opener, his stock may have fallen a bit.

Question: LJ. Buy or Sell. I'm totally buying it. This guy is a year removed from being a top 3 RB. He was hurt last year but has fully recovered. He is the goaline man in KC, will receive a majority of the carries, and will be more involved in the passing game. He's still young, and I expect a big season from LJ.

Here's the teams after 2 rounds.

Team A- Ladainian Tomlinson, Larry Fitzgerald
Team B- Adrian Peterson, Maurice Jones-Drew
Team C- Brian Westbrook, Peyton Manning
Team D- Joseph Addai, Ryan Grant
Team E- Steven Jackson, Reggie Wayne
Team F- Tom Brady, Braylan Edwards
Team G- Marshawn Lynch, Terrell Owens
Team H- Randy Moss, Frank Gore
Team I- Clinton Portis, Marion Barber III
Team J- Tony Romo, Larry Johnson

So which team's the best. In my opinion it's a toss up between team F, I, and C. If Peyton is healthy, I may give the edge to C. But I would love to know what you all think has the best team.

Team I was the pick i was least thrilled about out of my 3..... but Portis/Barber might be the best RB tandom in the draft and the RB-RB method worked out.
