ROUND ONE

1. ERIC – Chris Johnson (RB HOU) – Position Rank: #13 Don’t be fooled by the #13 ranking. Johnson was a huge disappointment. He was suppose to be the guy who began a new era of fantasy football for Eric, yet he sat in the low 20’s among all backs for most of the season. He didn’t crack 200 points in a game until week nine. By the time he started to put up solid stats, Eric’s season was over and Johnson was shipped off to Masterson late in week 11. Despite finishing strong over the last month, Johnson came up small in the quarterfinals (100 points) helping to contribute to Masterson’s fail in round one.

2. ROB M – Roddy White (WR ATL) – Position Rank: #13 Masterson let the balls hang out when he passed on both a top running back and an elite arm to go with 2010’s top wide receiver. However, White didn’t repeat those numbers from last year. Struggling early, he broke 200 only one in the first 10 weeks. Some solid stats at the end jacked White to #13 among all receivers, but overall not a good pick when you see Rodgers’ stats below.

3. MOLLY – Aaron Rodgers (QB GB)  – Position Rank: #1 Hopefully Molly sent Eric and Rob a thank you note along with some nude photos for letting Aaron Rodgers slip to her at the third pick. Rodgers had the greatest fantasy season ever, averaging a breathtaking 478 points per game. He earned his second-straight first-team All-Robio award, helping lead Molly to both the scoring title and the top-seed.

4. JEFF – Larry Fitzgerald (WR ARI) – Position Rank: #9 A strange season for Fitzgerald. It didn’t appear that he was having a great year, yet here we are and he stills in the top-10. Having said that, Kevin Kolb at quarterback didn’t seem to help t0o much (Fitzgerald was #13 last year). In 13 regular season games, Fitzgerald scored over 300 just twice, but he never had a game in the 200’s. He did break 100 in every single contest, so there’s that. I think it simply means he was good, but not very good, with a couple of great games sprinkled in there…sort of like me during sex.

5. RICH B – Drew Breees (QB NO) KEEPER – Position Rank: #2 He was no Aaron Rodgers, but he was close. He averaged 420 PPG (only the third player to average over 400 per game), but he was most impressive during Rich’s surprise playoff push, averaging 503 PPG to help get Burrier back to the playoff game. Too bad Rich can’t keep Brees two more years, something he could have had happen if he didn’t keep him this past year.

6. GRIFF – Philip Rivers (QB SD) – Position Rank: #9 The first real big surprise pick of the draft. Obviously Griff wasn’t going to select a running back (he already had Arian Foster and Jamaal Charles), but even if he decided to pass on elite wide receiver, I never saw him taking Philip River over both Vick and Brady. It just shows you how much I know. Anyhow, the decision didn’t really pay off as Rivers had his worst season in years, barely cracking the top-10.

7. MATT – Maurice Jones-Drew (RB JAC) – Position Rank: #4 Neatock had planned on taking a running back with this pick the entire offseason, so no surprise he passed on Vick. However, not even he would have thought Maurice Jones-Drew would fall to him. For whatever reason, MJD just doesn’t get the love other top backs get. It ended up being a solid pick, as Jones-Drew led the league in rushing yards and finished second-team All-Robio. This was the third straight year MJD has earned one of the three possible All-Robio awards.

8. RICH C – Michael Vick (QB PHI) – Position Rank: #14 Calderon had no intention of taking Michael Vick. Not so much because he didn’t like the Eagles quarterback, it’s just that he didn’t expect Vick to fall to him this far down. Well, he did, but sadly for him Vick struggled like a dog being electrocuted. He struggled to stay healthy and he struggled to produce when on the field. He ended up producing just one great game (500+ in week four) all year. He ended up missing four games, including the final three of our regular season. The consequence? Calderon would drop his final three and miss the post-season.

9. DON – Michael Turner (RB ATL) – Position Rank: #9 Never a sexy pick, Turner continued to be a safe, smart productive pick. After earning a 1st-team All-Robio in 2008, Turner has remained a low-end number one back and this year was not much different (He actually snuck back into the top-10 for the first time since ’08).  Still Turner always seems to run better at the beginning, than the end. Over Don’s first seven games, Turner averaged 209 PPG (and that includes a 18-pt effort in week three). However, in his final eight, Turner scored just 117 PPG.

10. COLBY – Frank Gore (RB SF) KEEPER – Position Rank: #15 This was a tough call for Colby. Gore is fine running back, but was he really keeper worthy? Well, thanks to the benefit of hindsight, Colby should have kept Wes Welker in the third, but that’s the beauty of hindsight. Anyhow, Gore struggled out of the gate, averaging 84 PPG in his first three, getting hurt in week three. It was looking like a awful pick. However, Gore blew up. Over the next five weeks, he would be the most productive running back in the league, averaging 267 PPG. Yet the good times didn’t last as Gore finished the regular season averaging just 78 PPG. Ironically none of this seemed to effect Colby after week three. When Gore was on fire, Colby went 2-3, but when Gore struggled at the end, Colby went 5-0.

11. ROBIO – Adrian Peterson (RB MIN) KEEPER – Position Rank: #7 For the second straight year Peterson had to run the ball without any help from a passing game, yet for most of the season he was a top-four back. Sadly though, Peterson went down at the end, right when I needed my best back. He would miss the final two games of the regular season. I would lose both games and miss the post-season.

12. BOB – Andre Johnson (WR HOU) KEEPER – Position Rank: #53 For three weeks, Andre Johnson looked like the best wide receiver in football. This of course shocks none. He was not just averaging 241 PPG, he never scored less than 230 points in a game. However, in week four he tore his hamstring and just like that Johnson was out. Add this in with the fact that Mike Thomas (Bob’s other starting wideout) was a bust and it looked like Bob was in trouble. Thankfully for Bob, he drafted little known rookie Cam Newton. He was so good, Bob was allowed to trade Brady away for a couple of top-10 receivers. Then despite the fact Johnson missed two full months, Bob was able to trade A.J. away for Steven Jackson to complete his championship roster.

ROUND TWO

13. BOB – Tom Brady (QB NE) – Position Rank: #3 Personally I was shocked to see Brady fall this far, especially with Philip Rivers taken ahead of him. It looked like an amazing pick, as Brady started the season on a record-breaking pace.  He averaged 555 PPG over the first three weeks. However, his numbers began to dip (and when I say dip I mean he’s still a top-5 quarterback). Still, with Cam Newton also producing for Bob, he shipped Brady and Antonio Brown to Colby for Jordy Nelson, Mike Wallace and Josh Freeman.

14. ROBIO – Reggie Wayne (WR IND) – Position Rank: #29 Here begins a common theme you will see throughout this draft rewind…players who were killed by the loss of Peyton Manning. This one was probably the toughest because I basically threw away the 14th pick in the draft. Wayne did nothing, scoring just one touchdown all season for me. I eventually cut him. Wayne was picked up by a couple teams before ending up  back on my bench by season’s end.

15. COLBY – Mike Wallace (WR PIT) – Position Rank: #5 A great pick by Colby. There were a lot of options and he ended up grabbing one of the best receivers in football. Better yet, he actually traded Wallace away in week six. Soon after, his numbers would begin to dip. In fact, in Wallace’s first seven games he averaged 243 PPG, but he averaged just 129 PPG the rest of the way. I believe they call that “trading high.”

16. DON – Steven Jackson (RB STL) – Position Rank: #17 He began the season with a 44-yard TD run on his very first carry, but then he got hurt. Oh Steven Jackson, why must you hurt us all so much. Anyhow, Jackson missed just one game and throughout the season he produced so-so. He had some big games (444 against the Saints) and some bad games (38 against the Ravens). The problem was the Rams offense sucked and with Fred Jackson and Michael Turner starting for Don, he shipped Steven off to me. He played one game, scored 224 and was then shipped off to Bob for Andre Johnson. Down the stretch Jackson struggled, but in the playoffs, the Rams back came up big. He averaged a solid 231 PPG for Bob during his championship run.

17. RICH C – Calvin Johnson (WR DET) KEEPER – Position Rank: #2 Stud. There was no question whether Johnson was a great keeper. With Matt Stafford staying healthy, Johnson finished second among all receivers, beyond just Wes Welker. Still, when Calderon needed him most, Johnson’s numbers dipped. He scored over 200 in seven of his first eight games of the year, yet after the Lions week nine bye, Johnson didn’t have a 100-yard game, producing only one touchdown. He failed to break 200 once to end the regular season.

18. MATT – DeSean Jackson (WR PHI) – Position Rank: #31 No player may be more frustrating than DeSean Jackson. The Eagles head case couldn’t stay consistent and as Philly’s season collapsed, DeSean just got worse. He was shipped off to me in a package deal at the trading deadline, but since he didn’t very little down the stretch, Matt didn’t miss him.

19. GRIFF – Mario Manningham (WR NYG) – Position Rank: #62 The first true “bust” of the draft., Manningham was certainly a money pick for Griff. With three great keepers, Griff feared running out of money and he drafted that way. Manningham had never proven he was worthy of a pick this high and with the emergence of Victor Cruz, he won’t be drafted this high again for a long time.

20. RICH B – Shonn Greene (RB NYJ) – Position Rank: #21 Greene continues to prove that he’s just not worthy of a starting spot. Yet, thanks to Peyton Hillis’ injury issues, Burrier had no choice but to keep Greene in. For 12 weeks, Greene was a so-so back. He never got more than 21 carries, he never sniffed 200 fantasy points, scoring just two rushing touchdowns. Yet, he had his two best games in weeks 13 and the quarterfinals, producing a 358-pt game, followed by a 380-pt game in his “upset” of Neatock in round one.

21. JEFF – Felix Jones (RB DAL) – Position Rank: #49 So far the second round has been brutal, with only Calvin Johnson (keeper) and Mike Wallace (third pick in the round) cracking the top-10 in their respected positions. Yet Jones was the only one who was actually benched.  After a week six injury, DeMarco Murray would step in and Jones would not get his job back until week 15 of the season. Of course by then Jeff’s season was already over.

22. MOLLY – Jahvid Best (RB DET) – Position Rank: #31 The first real big injury of the draft. Best was having his best year, averaging 219 PPG through the first six weeks of the season. However, Best would suffer a concussion and he would be the second top-five star for Molly to go down and out for the season (Kenny Britt was the other). It was a huge loss as Best was looking like an All-Robio type player.

23. ROB M – Tony Romo (QB DAL) – Position Rank: #7 In the grand scheme of things, Romo wasn’t such a bad pick. He averaged a solid 309 PPG, but let’s be honest, this was the year of the quarterback and 309 may not be as impressive as usual. The fact is, Rob skipped on Aaron Rodgers in round one, losing out on about 170 points per game. At least he didn’t draft Peyton Manning.

24. ERIC – Marques Colston (WR NO) – Position Rank: #26 Colston continued to struggled with both his health and consistency. One week he’ll produce 7-8 catches, the next he’ll grab one or two balls. He was eventually shipped off to Masterson in the Chris Johnson/Steve Smith deal. Colston did have a big week (316 points) in the quarterfinals for Rob, but it still wasn’t enough to get Rob past Bob.

ROUND THREE

* Robio and Burrier swapped third and fourth round picks.

25. ERIC – Peyton Manning (QB IND) – Position Rank: IR A costly, costly pick. Just like Manning’s injury killed the stats of Colts’ like Wayne, Garcon and Clark, it also help to kill Eric’s season. The fact is, even the best teams can’t surrender the league’s 25th pick like this. It was a gamble we all admired, but it did not pay off.

26. ROB M – Ahmad Bradshaw (RB NYG) – Position Rank: #27 For eight weeks, Bradshaw put up some solid stats. He produced only one 100-yard game, but he broke 140 fantasy points three times, plus one 298 and 384-point game. He was a RB2 putting up RB1 type numbers…then he got hurt. He would not return until the playoffs, but by then Rob sacrificed a great keeper (Steve Smith) for Chris Johnson and Bradshaw was on the pine.

27. MOLLY – Kenny Britt (WR TEN) – Position Rank: #83 Heading into the draft, Britt was a bit of a mystery. He had one breakout game last year, before going out for the season. He had a rough offseason with the law, so he didn’t get the respect other WR1’s get. Molly though didn’t lose faith and grabbed him early in the third. For two weeks it was a fantastic pick, producing a 382-point and a 312-point game. He was the third best receiver in football. Then in week three he tore up his ACL and his season was done. Outside of Jamaal Charles, Britt was probably the biggest in-season season-ending injury.

28. JEFF – Tim Hightower (RB WAS) – Position Rank: #47 I thought Hightower was a reach this early and risky considering Jeff already drafted a questionable running back in round two (Felix Jones). However, for three weeks it looked like a solid pick. Hightower had three games of 170+, although he never broke 200. However, he would start to struggle and in week seven, he was knocked out for the season. With the play of Roy Helu down the stretch for Washington, it’s hard to see Hightower regaining his starting job back in 2012.

29. ROBIO* – Matt Schaub (RB HOU) – Position Rank: #13 In my mind, Schaub was the last low-end elite quarterback, so I traded up with Burrier to land the Texans’ quarterback. Problem for me was that Matt Schaub wasn’t on par with the true elites. While he would pop off a 400+ game from time to time, he also had a few under 200 games. That’s not acceptable for a quarterback. However, like my entire starting backfield of Peterson and McFadden, Schaub was knocked out for the season.

30. GRIFF – Wes Welker (WR NE) – Position Rank: #1 Welker started the season on a record-setting pace. Five weeks in, Wes was averaging 345 PPG. No receiver in history had ever come close to producing those type of numbers. In the end, Welker averaged 237 PPG, thus he didn’t break any fantasy records, but he still earned the top spot, bringing home his first 1st-team All-Robio award.

31. MATT – Greg Jennings (WR GB) KEEPER – Position Rank: #6 Matt continues his hot streak of nailing great keepers each and every year. He landed Jennings in a trade last season and he continued to be a dominating receiver in Robioland. He finished 6th among all receivers, however, he came up small in the quarterfinals, catching just two balls for 20 yards, helping to eliminate Matt from the playoffs.

32. RICH C – Brandon Marshall (WR MIA) – Position Rank: #15 With no quarterback in Miami, I can’t see a way for Marshall to sneak back into elite status.  However, even I was surprised he finished in the top-15. He rotated in and out of Calderon’s lineup with Mike Williams (early) and later with Brandon Lloyd.

33. DON – Dwayne Bowe (WR KC) KEEPER – Position Rank: #14 Bowe remains a solid talent, but continues to struggle with consistency. You have to imagine if he ever had a real quarterback, someone like Brees, Rodgers or Stafford, he’d be a consistent top-five receiver. For now he remains a high-end WR2, who will put up 300 one week and 20 the next.

34. COLBY – Antonio Gates (TE SD) – Position Rank: #8 Colby failed to see the new trend in NFL tight ends, grabbing verteren Gates, even though he had struggled to stay healthy lately. It hurt as the Chargers’ TE missed another four games. Once he did return he played well, but his days as an All-Robio tight end are probably over.

35. RICH B* – Knowshon Moreno (RB DEN) – Position Rank: #64 I think it’s official, Moreno is a fantasy bust. Three years in and he has done absolutely nothing in this league. He was one of two backs (Hillis being the other) who couldn’t stay on the field for Rich. Amazingly though, drafting Moreno doesn’t seem to jinx people.

36. BOB – Ryan Mathews (RB SD) – Position Rank: #8 Bob takes a big chance waiting until pick #36 to take his first back, but it paid off. I doubt this guy, simply because I didn’t think he would get enough carries, but I was wrong. About the amount of carries, I was right. He only had 20+ touches in a game three times (in our 13 game regular season), yet he still finished a shocking 8th among all backs.

ROUND FOUR

37. BOB – Beanie Wells (RB ARI) – Position Rank: #14 For three weeks to open the season, Wells looked like a steal, he broke 200+ in weeks one and two, followed by a career high 402. While he continued to have some good games throughout, he also failed to stay healthy (again). He would officially miss one game, but he also got 10 carries or less in three other contests. In the end, Wells spent the title game on the bench as Bob made a move for Steven Jackson.

38. RICH B* – Dez Bryant (WR DAL) – Position Rank: #17 Burrier reached a bit (in my mind) for a receiver who had never produced yet, but it’s hard to pass on his athletic ability. For most of the season Bryant put up solid WR2 numbers, almost always breaking 100, but only cracking 200 twice. The problem was he always looked like Romo’s third option and Dez only seemed to get the ball on plays called just for him.

39. COLBY – Steelers (DST PIT) – Position Rank: #4 Finishing 4th among all D’s is fine. In fact, it is better than fine, but when you consider that the Steelers cost nearly twice as much as the next D, one should probably expect more. During one three-week stretch the Steelers D couldn’t hit 200 against three of the worst offensive teams in the league (Titans, Jaguars and the Cardinals). Still when Colby needed them the most, they were huge. In weeks 12-14, the Steel Curtain averaged 239 PPG.

40. DON – Matt Ryan (QB ATL) – Position Rank: #8 With the elite quarterbacks gone, there were a handful of teams left without a quarterback and they would have to pick between the next generation of quarterbacks (Ryan, Stafford, Freeman and Flacco – I’m not counting Cam Newton because no one was going to draft him up here). Don went first and grabbed Ryan (the senior of this group). Despite having two solid receivers, plus a Hall of Fame tight end, Ryan was okay. He certainly out-performed the likes of Flacco, Freeman and Sam Bradford, but he was no Stafford.

41. RICH C – DeAngelo Williams (RB CAR) – Position Rank: #34 We thought he might be done, but then the Panthers signed him to a long-term deal. Money well spent…NOT! He finished with 836 yards and by season’s end, he was the third best back in Carolina behind Stewart and Cam Newton.

42. MATT – Dallas Clark (TE NE) – Position Rank: #28 Peyton Manning’s neck injury claims its second victim. Clark had his worst year since his rookie season. Luckily for Matt he recovered nicely with Tony Gonzalez in round 14. Nice save.

43. GRIFF – Jermichael Finley (TE GB) KEEPER – Position Rank: #6 The good news is, Finley remained healthy (after two straight years of season-ending knee injuries). While he didn’t dominate, he did finish as an elite TE (I consider anyone in the top-six an elite).

44. ROBIO* – Santonio Holmes (WR NYJ) – Position Rank: #28 I was deciding between Holmes, Johnson and Brandon Lloyd…Holmes was the worst of the three, but none were that impressive by season’s end. I should have just taken Jason Witten.

45. JEFF – Steve Johnson (WR BUF) – Position Rank: #20 Johnson got off to a hot start, producing two 200+ games in the season’s first three weeks, yet he struggled with consistency the whole year, failing to hit 50 fantasy points three times. In fact, he wouldn’t taste another 200-point game until week 13. Of course by then it was way too late for Jeff.

46. MOLLY – Jacoby Ford (WR OAK) – Position Rank: #90 The first “what the fuck” pick of the draft. I can’t imagine anyone else considering this guy before round eight or nine. He did absolutely nothing and was cut by Molly rather quickly.

47. ROB M – Mark Ingram (RB NO) – Position Rank: #36 For the fourth year in a row Masterson decided to staff his roster with a New Orleans Saints’ running back. Three years ago it was Reggie Bush in the second. The last two years it was Pierre Thomas in the sixth (as a keeper) and the second round last year. In 2011 he took the Saints rookie. Maybe he should avoid the Saints’ backfield in 2012, because so far this experiment hasn’t worked out. Only Pierre Thomas in 2009 managed to crack the top-30 (he finished #17 among all backs).

48. ERIC – Jason Witten (TE DAL) – Position Rank: #4 I don’t know if Eric was surprised, but I was certainly was to see Witten fall all the way to the bottom of the fourth round. Good for him, because he may have been the only good “pick” Eric had all draft.

ROUND FIVE

49. ERIC – Matt Forte (RB CHI) KEEPER – Position Rank: #5 In what turned out to be one of the greatest steals in trading history, somehow Eric was able to unload Randy Moss last year for Matt Forte. Moss ended up doing nothing last year for Calderon and then retired. Forte ended up being the best back in football for much of this season, before going out for the year with an injury late in the season. Too bad Forte couldn’t help deliver wins to Eric.

50. ROB M – Ray Rice (RB BAL) KEEPER – Position Rank: #2 If Rice was able to deliver Masterson at least one championship run, you could make a solid argument that Ray Rice was the greatest keeper of all-time. For now, we’ll just stick him in the elite group that consists of L. Tomlinson (Burrier 2003-2008), Chris Johnson (Bob 2008-10), Adrian Peterson (Matt 2007-2009), Terrell Owens (Don 2006-2008), Tiki Barber (Colby 2004-2006) and Shaun Alexander (Griff 2003-2006). For the record, in three seasons Ray Rice finished third, seventh and second among all running backs.

51. MOLLY – Eagles (DST PHI) KEEPER – Position Rank: #16 Don’t believe the hype. Molly kept the high-priced Eagles D, but the money wasn’t worth it. The Eagles couldn’t stop a crippled running back. Not good enough when you’re the second defense “taken” in the draft.

52. JEFF – Cedric Benson (RB CIN) – Position Rank: #22 He produced 125 yards and a touchdown on 25 carries on opening day. That was the good news. The bad news was the rest of the season. Overall, Benson wasn’t tragic, produced a couple of 100-yard games, but the fact is, injuries and a suspension never allowed him to be a number one running back, something Jeff sorely needed.

53. RICH B – Ravens (DST BAL) – Position Rank: #1 A solid grab by Burrier and a big reason why he won his division and came within one win of a second title. The fact is, Rich would grab two first-team All-Robio players, neither before the fourth round.

54. GRIFF – Anquan Boldin (WR BAL) – Position Rank: #18 In a perfect world, Griff would have never needed Boldin except for a couple of bye-weeks. yet, when Jamaal Charles went down, Boldin was needed since Griff didn’t have any running back help on the bench. Boldin wasn’t bad, but an average WR2 is not a RB1.

55. MATT – Jets (DST NYJ) – Position Rank: #5 Sure the Jets had some less-than-impressive moments this season (Tebow!), but Matt still had a top-five D that started every game for him, minus the bye-week of course.

56. RICH C – Brandon Lloyd (WR DEN) – Position Rank: #23 For me, it was shocking to see last year’s #1 receiver fall this far. Sure I didn’t expect great things from him, but I thought he could be a low-end WR1. At first, Lloyd made me look right, scoring 166 on opening day and 258 two weeks later, but as Orton struggled, so did Lloyd’s numbers. Eventually Tebow would come in and we all new Lloyd was done. However, the Broncos shipped him to the Rams and surprisingly Lloyd would have six straight 130-point games. Calderon would play him from time to time, as he finished the season as a low-end WR2.

57. DON – Owen Daniels (TE HOU) – Position Rank: #11 It’s amazing, with the new generation of tight ends in the league, Daniels just looks old. You have to believe he’s never really going to get back to elite status and I would be shocked if he gets taken before round ten next year.

58. COLBY – Ryan Grant (RB GB) – Position Rank: #57 Bust. He never stayed healthy and when he did play, he didn’t carry the ball much. Colby cut him soon. He landed with Neatock and had his best game of the year in the quarters, but he was on Matt’s bench, so really he had zero impact on the 2011 season.

59. ROBIO – Joseph Addai (RB IND) – Position Rank: #51 Remember the days when Addai was good? Rob should, back in 2007 he kept him in round five and he finished #4 among all running backs. Those days are long gone.  Can’t really blame Addai’s crappy numbers on Peyton’s neck. If anything the Colts would run the ball more. In the end, Addai did what Addai does well, getting hurt. He missed four weeks and never cracked 80 fantasy points after week three.

60. BOB – Mike Thomas (WR JAC) – Position Rank: #74 Bob may have won the title, but this pick had nothing to do with it. Of all the players picked in the first five rounds (60 players) only three players finished below Thomas, two went out early in the season on IR (Peyton Manning and Kenny Britt) and the other was Jacoby Ford (who finished #90). When you consider that Molly scored over 1,500 PPG despite the Ford pick and Bob won the title despite this pick, it almost makes me want to just fuck up an early pick on a bad wide receiver on purpose.

ROUND SIX

61. BOB – Jonathan Stewart (RB CAR) – Position Rank: #20 Stewart actually finished the season as the best back in Carolina, finishing 18 spots ahead of DeAngelo Williams. However, he was never granted a starting spot on Bob’s roster (except as a bye-week or injury replacement). If it wasn’t for Jordy Nelson (Bob can keep him in round seven), Stewart could be a decent sleeper keeper next season.

62. ROBIO – Vincent Jackson (WR SD) KEEPER – Position Rank: #8 Sometimes numbers can be deceiving. You look up and see Jackson finished the season as the #8 wide receiver, but trust me, he was not the 8th best receiver. You see, Jackson’s numbers are bloated thanks to a handful of monster games. In his four huge games, Jackson averaged 385 PPG. In the other nine regular season games, he averaged just 71 points per game. By mid-season, when my running backs began to fall, I shipped him off to Don for Steven Jackson. He proceeded to score 448 points against me. Thanks, Vincent.

63. COLBY – BenJarvus Green-Ellis (RB NE) KEEPER – Position Rank: #26 Like we continue to say, you just can’t trust a Patriots’ running back. Green-Ellis started a few games for Colby, although that had more to do with necessity. By season’s end, Colby went three-wide and he shipped BGE to the bench.

64. DON – Fred Jackson (RB BUF) – Position Rank: #6 Absolute steal. For nearly the entire season Jackson was the number one back in football. Five of his first seven games were 300+ fantasy games. Over the next three weeks his numbers began a slow decline, before he went out with a devastating season-ending injury. I say devastating because Don ended up picking up Jackson’s backup, C.J. Spiller. While he started for him from time to time, when it mattered the most (the semis) he benched him. Bad move. If he started him, Spiller’s 412 fantasy points would have been enough to put Don over Rich and into his third title game.

65. RICH C – LeGarrette Blount (RB TB) KEEPER – Position Rank: #28 Yes, Blount was a bust. He was expected to be a top-eight running back thanks to a fantastic finish to the 2010 season. In fact, he had a solid start out of the gate with a couple of 200+ games. However, his numbers suffered thanks to injuries and when he was healthy his team had given up on the season. He was never productive except for a couple of games in weeks 11 and 12.

66. MATT – Chad Ochocinco (WR NE) – Position Rank: #108 Ochocinco gets to play in one of the best offenses in the league and he remains healthy, yet his final numbers are: 15 catches for 276 yards. Good night, Chad. Career over.

67. GRIFF – Reggie Bush (RB MIA) – Position Rank: #18 After a turbulent start to the season, Reggie Bush looked like the same Reggie Bush we’ve known for so many years…an undersized back who doesn’t get enough touches and doesn’t do much when he does get the ball. Griff saw this and cut him. Jeff picked him up and suddenly, Bush looked legit. How legit? In his final nine games in the NFL season, Bush averaged 229 PPG. If he did that for a full season, he’d be a top-five back.

68. RICH B – Peyton Hillis (RB CLE) KEEPER – Position Rank: #44 The bruiser failed to deliver in 2011, simply because he couldn’t stay on the field. He missed some or all of eight of his first 11 games. However, Rich never cut him loose and down the stretch Hillis actually helped. He would start for him in Burrier’s three playoff games, scoring 222 in the semis and 172 in the finals.

69. JEFF – Giants (DST NYG) – Position Rank: #23 With a roster full of injured players, the Giants put up respectable numbers in some games, but too often they would have a tragically bad game. The best example was in week 12. Needing a win to put Jeff in the playoffs (with a loss leaving him out), for reasons only known to Jeff, he started the Giants D against the Saints in New Orleans. Brees went off and the Giants finished with -113. Jeff would end up losing to Griff by 364 points.

70. MOLLY – Jimmy Graham (TE NO) – Position Rank: #2 Monster sleeper pick here. Graham was not only one of the best tight ends in the league, he would have been one of the best receivers…period. He led all tight ends in receptions and yards. His 3,509 total fantasy points would have made him the fifth best receiver in football.

71. ROB M  – Julio Jones (WR ATL) – Position Rank: #38 This one is a tough one. I hate to call it a bad pick, but since Rob already had Roddy White, did he ever really want to start two Falcons’ receivers? In the end, Jones played like a rookie receiver. He had a couple of good catches during the season, but if Rob was starting him at any point this year, he couldn’t have been happy.

72. ERIC – Pierre Garcon (WR IND) – Position Rank: #16 For whatever reason, Garcon’s numbers were not really hurt by Manning’s neck. The fact is Garcon was Painter’s favorite target and through five weeks he was a top-five receiver thanks to a 408 and 360 point game. Still, his numbers dipped as the season went along and he failed to break 100 in five of his last seven regular season games.

ROUND SEVEN

73. ERIC – Plaxico Burress (WR NYJ) – Position Rank: #33 Someone had to roll the dice, but this one didn’t pay off. Plaxico certainly has lost a step, unable to get any separation from most cornerbacks. I guess prison will do that. It’s all the ass rapes I guess.

74. ROB M – Sidney Rice (WR SEA) KEEPER – Position Rank: #50 Remember that one amazing year Rice had? Yeah, I barely do too. Actually Rice had back-to-back 200-point games after missing the first two games of the season. Maybe, just maybe he could be a low-end WR1 despite being in Seattle and despite having Tavaris Jackson as his quarterback. However, those two games were the highlight. He would have 21 more catches and one touchdown for the remainder of the season.

75. MOLLY – Willis McGahee (RB DEN) – Position Rank: #19 Well, I certainly didn’t see this coming. Yes, new head coach John Fox favorited the running game, but McGahee? If anyone it would be Moreno, but not McGahee. He was too old, right? Obviously not. Minus two or three bad games, McGahee was a legit high end RB2, helping lead Molly to her record-setting regular season.

76. JEFF – Aaron Hernandez (TE NE) – Position Rank: #9 There are a lot of things I could predict when I started this league, but one thing I certainly would have never predicted was that one team could produce two top-10 tight ends. Hernandez lived in the shadows of Gronkowski, but he was a solid grab by Jeff.

77. RICH B – Brandon Jacobs (RB NYG) – Position Rank: #35 Yeah, not sure why anyone still drafts Brandon Jacobs. Sure Ahmad Bradshaw could (and did get hurt), but still, did anyone really believe Jacobs could produce anything? In fact, Bradshaw did get hurt and missed four games. Jacobs got the start, yet he only averaged 120 PPG in those four starts.

78. GRIFF – Ben Tate (RB HOU) – Position Rank: #30 A smart grab for Griff, although probably a round or two early for insurance. Still, Foster did miss some time and Tate did a fantastic job filling in for Griff. In fact, he probably did too good of a job. He averaged nearly 12 carries per game, carries that were taken away from Foster, thus hurting his numbers.

79. MATT – Marshawn Lynch (RB SEA) – Position Rank: #11 Quick, who was the best running back in fantasy football after week nine? If you said Marshawn Lynch, give yourself a cookie. He averaged 253 PPG down the stretch, scoring a touchdown in 10 straight games. Of course Matt didn’t need Lynch, thanks to the play of Jones-Drew and McCoy, but still he gave up a solid keeper for a first-round playoff defeat.

80. RICH C – Mike Tolbert (RB SD) – Position Rank: #23 Considering Ryan Mathews finished 8th among all running backs, to see Tolbert at 23rd is pretty shocking. The Chargers were the only team to produce two running backs that were starter worthy in fantasy football.

81. DON – Santana Moss (WR WAS) – Position Rank: #72 Every year I say Moss is done, then he breaks out with yet another career year after I’ve spoken. Yet, that won’t keep me from doing it again. Santana Moss is done.

82. COLBY – Danny Amendola (WR STL) – Position Rank: #145 In the first half of the first game, Amendola had five catches for a solid 45 yards. A good start to the season. Too bad that was it. He tore the ACL and his season was done. So much for being the next Wes Welker.

83. ROBIO – Chargers (DST SD) – Position Rank: #22 If you’re going to wait to pick a defense this late, you better know what you’re doing. Clearly I didn’t know what I was doing. Wasted pick, quickly cut.

84. BOB – C.J. Spiller (RB BUF) – Position Rank: #48 Ironically if Bob would have kept Spiller on his roster, he could have made a huge impact on Bob’s playoff run. Instead he cut him and won the championship anyhow.

ROUND EIGHT

85. BOB – Daniel Thomas (RB MIA) – Position Rank: #41 Rookie running backs failed to produce any big stats in 2011. There was plenty of hope for Thomas. He was a first-round pick on a team that liked to run the ball, plus his only real competition was Reggie Bush. Well, Bush proved to be too much, as Thomas struggled to hold onto the ball and get minutes on the field.

86. ROBIO – Lions (DST DET) – Position Rank: #8 A solid pick as the Lions had some solid games throughout the year, especially when producing turnovers. Too bad it took me two picks (my last and this one) to get it right.

87. COLBY – Josh Freeman (QB TB) – Position Rank: #19 Mr. Hall was convinced that Freeman could lead him to the promise land. He was confident Freeman was ready to make that leap forward to elitism. He was wrong, so he shipped him off (along with two stud receivers) for some guy name Tom Brady.

88. DON – Patriots (DST NE) – Position Rank: #25 Yeah, they sucked.

89. RICH C – James Starks (RB GB) – Position Rank: #33 It was a good thought. Starks was strong runner at the end of 2010, so one would assume he could reproduce the stats in 2011. However, because he was sharing the backfield with Ryan Grant and the fact that the Packers pretty much just threw the ball 50 times per game, Starks never sniffed the ball enough to do anything. He never had more than 13 carries and he never had more than 85 yards in a game. Worse yet, he scored only one rushing touchdown all season long. Ouch.

90. MATT – Matthew Stafford (QB DET) – Position Rank: #5 Once again, Matt finds another late-round gem. No one has done better at finding these type of players this late. Just look at the history. In 2005 he grabbed Carson Palmer (he finished first among all arms). The following year he kept Palmer and he finished #4. In 2008 he drafted Wes Welker, the 14th ranked wide receiver. He kept him the following year, where Welker improved to #8. Also in 2009, Matt drafted first-year quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who finished second among all quarterbacks. He kept him in 2010, where he finished first. Of course that was just the start. In 2010, Matt also drafted Hakeem Nicks in 2010. Stafford is an absolute keeper for the next two seasons for Neatock.

91. GRIFF – A.J. Green (WR CIN) – Position Rank: #10 Typically taking a wide receiver as a rookie is a waste of a pick, but Green became the exception to the rule with a brilliant rookie campaign. The last rookie to have this kind of impact was Mark Clayton for the Buccaneers. Of course that was the best year Clayton would have. Something tells me Green will be okay.

92. RICH B – Rob Gronkowski (TE NE) – Position Rank: #1 Wow. Maybe the pick of the draft if you forget about Cam Newton. Gonkowski finished with 17 touchdowns on the season. He averaged 214 PPG, the most ever for a tight end in Robioland. It’s also the first time in Burrier’s career that he’s had any All-Robio tight end.

93. JEFF – Hines Ward (WR PIT) – Position Rank: #80 Going, going…and just about gone.

94. MOLLY – Malcom Floyd (WR SD) – Position Rank: #49 Do you know what’s so painful about this pick? Just look down one pick and imagine how amazing Molly could have been.

95. ROB – Steve Smith (WR CAR) – Position Rank: #4 Coming off a rough year and stuck with a rookie quarterback known for running, no one can be blamed for skipping on Steve Smith. Masterson grabbed him and it paid off big time. Smith had one of his best seasons ever, earning second-team All-Robio. Of course Rob made a huge decision when he shipped Smith off to one-win Eric for Chris Johnson, along with some other junk parts. Fact is, with Bradshaw hurt, Rob could continue to go three-wide or get a running back who appeared to be heating up. He went with the latter. In the long run, we will never know if Rob could have won a title if he didn’t do the trade (Steve Smith only had one catch for nine years in week 16), but I do know if Masterson had Smith and not Johnson the quarterfinals, he would have won. Smith scored 238, while Johnson scored 100. That 138-point difference would have been the difference in Rob’s two-point defeat.

96. ERIC – Javon Ringer (RB TEN) – Position Rank: #60 This insurance policy almost paid off. As Chris Johnson struggled most of the year, there was talk of Ringer getting the start. It never happened and Eric eventually cut him.

ROUND NINE

97. ERIC – Braylon Edwards (WR SF) KEEPER – Position Rank: #117 In 2007, Edwards caught 80 balls for 1,289 yard and an amazing 16 touchdowns. His future looked bright. Since then he’s never caught more than 55 balls and he’s never approached 1,000 yards. He also only produced 19 total touchdowns since 2007. In 2011 he hit rock bottom. He played in only nine games, catching 15 balls. That’s what we call a decline.

98. ROB M – Michael Bush (RB OAK) – Position Rank: #12 Masterson stepped up and stole my McFadden insurance policy. In the end it didn’t help Masterson, but it killed me. When McFadden went down for the year, it would be Calderon who would benefit from Bush’s stats.  He averaged 207 PPG after McFadden’s injury. Until I was able to trade for Marshawn Lynch, my replacements for McFadden averaged just 107 PPG. That’s the lesson for you kids, don’t let Masterson take your insurance policies.

99. MOLLY – Rashard Mendenhall (RB PIT) KEEPER – Position Rank: #25 There were just too many games where Mendenhall disappeared (five times he failed to hit 100 fantasy points) and now that he tore his ACL at the end of the 2011 season, he could be out for the entire 2012 season.

100. JEFF – Nate Burelson (WR DET) – Position Rank: #47 This was the fourth of Jeff’s first nine picks who failed to crack the top-40 at their respective position. In fact, seven of the first nine failed to crack the top-20. That’s how one misses the post-season, folks.

101. RICH B – Davone Bess (WR MIA) – Position Rank: #66 I think he had a good game once, at some point last season. That’s all I know about this guy.

102. GRIFF – Saints (DST NO) – Position Rank: #29 Awful effort by the Saints defense this year. Thank God Griff figured it out quickly, cut ’em and found the 49ers D, the league’s second best defense in 2011.

103. MATT – LeSean McCoy (RB PHI) KEEPER – Position Rank: #1 Just another amazing Neatock pick. Although technically this wasn’t his pick. If you recall Matt landed McCoy in a trade that sent Aaron Rodgers to Calderon. Of course Rodgers couldn’t be kept, but McCoy could. Still, this wasn’t a lock. If you remember, it was either going to be McCoy or Michael Vick in the 7th round. At the time it was a tough pick, but not for Matt, who decided early on that McCoy would be his keeper. Good decision.

104. RICH C – Roy Helu (RB WAS) – Position Rank: #32 Calderon nearly saved his season living off great running backs that other people cut. In this case, the shoe was on the other foot. Rookie back Helu did nothing, stuck behind about a half-a-dozen other running backs. Helu finally got his shot late, but by then he belong to Griff. In the final two regular season games, Helu averaged 285 PPG. I think Calderon could have used those points as he dropped his final three to miss the playoffs.

105. DON – LaDainian Tomlinson (RB NYJ) – Position Rank: #37 Between 2003-2008, Tomlinson finished the season ranked 7th, 3rd, 3rd, 1st, 2nd, 1st, 1st, 7th. This was easily the best eight-year run by a running back in this league’s short history. However, since then L.T. has finished 30th, 16th and now 37th. I think his best days are way behind him.

106. COLBY – Eli Manning (QB NYG) – Position Rank: #6 Yes, Colby cut Eli Manning for Randy McMichaels. Two weeks later McMichaels was cut and Eli would have a fantastic finish to the season.

107. ROBIO – Kellen Winslow (TE TB) – Position Rank: #13 Two touchdowns all season and only one 100-yard game. How did he still finish #13 in the year of the tight end? How I ask? This is why he keeps sneaking onto rosters like mine.

108. BOB – Mike Sims-Walker (WR STL) – Position Rank: #122 Bob won the title, but it had nothing to do with any wide receiver he drafted. So far he’s kept or drafted three wide receivers and none did a single thing this year. Andre Johnson did something when healthy, but he got hurt and finished #53 among all receivers. Mike Thomas finished #71, while Sims-Walker was actually cut by his team mid-season.

ROUND TEN

109. BOB – Vernon Davis (TE SF) KEEPER – Position Rank: #12 Not only would I call Davis’ season a disappointment, but when you saw what he did during the post-season, you witnessed just how dangerous he should be. Still, being 12th means you’re still a starter in this league and he certainly didn’t hurt Bob.

110. ROBIO – Kyle Orton (QB DEN) – Position Rank: #36 Yeah, that didn’t workout too well. However, if he remains the starter in Kansas City, you can probably safely assume someone (probably me) will take a shot at him late in the draft in 2012.

111. COLBY – Pierre Thomas (RB NO) – Position Rank: #29 Shockingly, Colby not only kept Thomas on his roster all season, but he actually started him twice. Once in a loss to Molly in week eight and then again the following week against me. In that second game, Thomas scored 218, helping Colby earn the first win of his five-game winning streak that put him into the playoffs.

112. DON – Percy Harvin (WR MIN) KEEPER – Position Rank: #11 Don had kept the former Florida Gator for three seasons now, waiting patiently for the wide receiver to finally break through. As the 2011 season went along, it looked like it was only a pipe dream. However, starting in week eleven, Harvin went postal. Over the next four weeks he averaged a stunning 292 PPG, helping push Don back into the post-season. Sadly though when Don needed Harvin the most (the semis), he disappeared, scoring six fantasy points in Don’s 194-point loss to Burrier.

113. RICH C – Jared Cook (TE TEN) – Position Rank: #22 For a man who always appreciated what a great tight end could do for you, I was shocked to see Calderon wait 10 rounds to grab a tight end. This position killed Rich all season long. He cut Cook by week two and Rich ended up adding and dropping five different tight ends as the year went on. Rich finished the season with Brett Celek and his 38 points.

114. MATT – Greg Little (WR CLE) – Position Rank: #54 Little was no A.J. Green, but he wasn’t that tragic. He caught 61 balls and Matt kept him on the bench the entire season.

115. GRIFF – Arian Foster (RB HOU) KEEPER – Position Rank: #3 He should have been a back-to-back first-team All-Robio running back, but he missed two games early in the season and only got 10 carries in a third game because of injuries. He almost single-handily drove Griff back to the title game, finishing third among all backs. If Griff can somehow earn a title with Foster next year, he could arguable be the league’s greatest keeper.

116. RICH B – Kendall Hunter (RB SF) – Position Rank: #43 Once Rich figured out that Gore wasn’t going anywhere, he kicked him to the curve in week eight. Calderon picked him up, but just for a couple of weeks. Still, he looked good when he got some carries, producing over 500 total yards on just 110 touches.

117. JEFF – Ben Roethlisberger (QB PIT) KEEPER – Position Rank: #10 Not a terrible keeper (nothing wrong with being 10th among all quarterbacks), but when you consider that Jeff (like Eric and Masterson) passed on Aaron Rodgers in round one, then you realize this pick hurts…just a bit.

118. MOLLY – Danny Woodhead (RB NE) – Position Rank: #54 Never draft New England Patriots’ running backs. When will the league learn? When?

119. ROB M – Joe Flacco (QB BAL) – Position Rank: #18 The Ravens quarterback took a step backwards. He finished 2009 as the 16th best quarterback, moving up to 12th last year. However, he fell six spots this past season. Even more sadder is the fact that I had to finish my season with him as my starting quarterback. His 89 points in week 13 were a huge help.

120. ERIC – LaRod Stephens-Howling (RB ARI) – Position Rank: #58 I actually thought he was a deep sleeper and I was prepared to draft him a few rounds later, but Beanie Wells played a lot better than predicted and Stephens-Howling never got enough touches to be effective.

ROUND ELEVEN

121. ERIC – Colt McCoy (QB CLE) – Position Rank: #20 For a brief moment Eric actually needed McCoy. With Peyton Manning officially out for the year, McCoy was the man. He started in week one,  produced 230 points in a loss to Griff. Then Eric picked up Ryan Fitzgerald and McCoy sat on the bench for 10 weeks before getting cut. Now there is talk of the Browns drafting a new quarterback. Goodnight Coy, it was nice knowing you.

122. ROB M – Johnny Knox (WR CHI) – Position Rank: #30 So Rob took a shot at Knox, but he failed to do anything.  He averaged just 100 points over the first two games. Rob cut him. Over the next seven weeks he averaged just 74 points per game. Then in weeks 11 and 12, he exploded for 248 and 342 points. Masterson picked him back up. He proceeded to average just 48 PPG over the next three games.

123. MOLLY – Miles Austin (WR DAL) KEEPER – Position Rank: #55 Miles came out hot, scoring 230 and 442 points. It looked like he was ready to return to elite status with Tony Romo back at quarterback. Yet, that would be the highlight. Austin failed to stay on the field, missing seven games total. He was one of three stars Molly would lose for most or all of the season (Kenny Britt and Jahvid Best). How the hell did she scored 1,536 points per game (second most ever) this season?

124. JEFF – Kevin Kolb (QB ARI) – Position Rank: #25 I guess the Eagles didn’t miss Kolb this season. He never did much of anything this year. In fact, I would argue that John Skelton was the better of the Cardinals’ quarterbacks.

125. RICH B – Deion Branch (WR NE) – Position Rank: #27 Burrier kept him all season and he got a little playing time, but except for a couple of 200-point games, he didn’t really give Burrier anything worth bragging about.

126. GRIFF – Mark Sanchez (QB NYJ) – Position Rank: #12 In fantasy terms, Sanchez wasn’t that bad.  Griff kept him on his bench the entire season, playing him during Philip Rivers’ bye-week. I’ll be honest though, I just can’t see him ever being a fantasy-worthy quarterback in this league…not unless you DON’T want to win the title.

127. MATT – Rashard Jennings (RB JAC) – Position Rank: N/A Matt should have gotten some insurance for his insurance policy. Jennings was put on injured reserve before the season even started.

128. RICH C – Cowboys (DST DAL) – Position Rank: #7 I said this was a bad pick and yet again I was wrong. While the Cowboys were an average NFL defense, thanks to turnovers and sacks, the Cowboys D finished a surprising seventh among all D’s. Despite this, no one really seem to want them. Calderon cut them in week one, Masterson add and dropped them twice before they ended up with Molly, splitting time with the Eagles D.

129. DON – Jay Cutler (QB CHI) – Position Rank: #21 With Matt Ryan starting for Don, he had little use for Cutler. He was cut in week five. However, Cutler’s numbers improved as his O-line did and Bob picked him up in week nine as some insurance for Cam Newton. However, two weeks later he was out for the season and Bob cut him loose.

130. COLBY – Lance Moore (WR NO) – Position Rank: #40 Colby wanted to love Moore, but he just couldn’t keep him around. Thanks to the emergence of first Jordy Nelson and the Laurant Robinson, Moore was cut loose twice during the season. Nobody grabbed him and Colby actually finished the season with with Moore on his bench.

131. ROBIO – Darren McFadden (RB OAK) KEEPER – Position Rank: #24 Through six weeks McFadden was a top-three running back, leading my team back to the post-season. Then he sprained an ankle and just like that his season was done. Yes, only Darren McFadden could sprain an ankle and miss the entire season. Seriously? With McFadden I went 5-2, without him I went 1-5.

132. BOB – Antonio Brown (WR PIT) – Position Rank: #19 This could be one of those great trades that could turn into a great keeper. Bob shipped Brown off to Colby in weeks six (don’t worry, he got his own great late-round WR keeper in the trade). As soon as Brown was traded, he became a top-10 receiver. In fact, for Colby, Brown averaged 192 PPG.

ROUND TWELVE

133. BOB – Cam Newton (QB CAR) – Position Rank: #4 Arguable one of the best picks ever. Newton had one of the greatest rookie seasons ever, averaging 362 PPG. He just missed out on earning third-team All-Robio, just behind Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees and Tom Brady. Since Bob gets him for two more years, is there anyone doubting whether he can’t lead Bob to another title? Anyone?

134. ROBIO – Mike Williams (WR SEA) – Position Rank: #107 I guess 2010 was a fluke. Too bad I can’t figure that out before I waste a pick on him. He would never catch more than four balls in any one game.

135. COLBY – Arrelious Benn (WR TB) – Position Rank: #63 He caught just 30 balls for 400+ yards. Not what you would call a sleeper.

136. DON – Nate Kaeding (PK SD) – Position Rank: IR Don snags a kicker wicked early and he didn’t even kick a ball all season long due to injury.

137. RICH C – Mike Williams (WR TB) KEEPER – Position Rank: #35 I was worried about a sophomore slump from Tampa’s two big guns (Blount and Williams). Both who just so happen to be on Rich’s team. Blount certainly struggled, but much of it had to do with injuries. What was Williams’ excuse? He caught the same amount of balls in 2011 as he did in 2010, but for 200 yards less and his touchdown total dropped from 11 to three.

138. MATT – Ronnie Brown (RB PHI) – Position Rank: #101 Oh the good old days…remember when Brown was on the verge of becoming an elite running back? He was so close, yet he was unable to ever finish a season. Now’s just insurance for LeSean McCoy.

139. GRIFF – Matt Bryant (PK ATL) – Position Rank: #15 Rule number twenty-six, the first kickers taken almost never end up as the top kickers in the league. The first one taken went on IR. Bryant couldn’t even crack the top-10.

140. RICH B – Jeremy Maclin (WR PHI) KEEPER – Position Rank: #34 For nine weeks Maclin was actually pretty good, catching 44 balls for 606 yards, along with four touchdowns. Then he got hurt and missed four weeks. He came back come playoff time and Burrier put him into the lineup (for history’s purpose). He failed to produce (just 24 fantasy points). Rich advanced, but Maclin would not see the starting lineup again.

141. JEFF – Earl Bennett (WR CHI) – Position Rank: #94 For eight weeks it looked like this guy wouldn’t even have a NFL career much longer, let alone a spot on a fantasy roter. He got hurt and Jeff cut him. Still in week nine he exploded for 240 points. I grabbed him and he continue to put up solid numbers over the next two weeks. He looked like a late-season sleeper, but then Jay Cutler got hurt, the Bears had no quarterback and Bennett was a bomb..

142. MOLLY – Chad Henne (QB MIA) – Position Rank: #35 Not sure why Molly needed to draft a quarterback when she had Aaron Rodgers in round one. Yet ironically Henne would out-score Rodgers 577-450 in week one. That would be the highlight, he would last two more games and his season was done.

143. ROB M – Dustin Keller (TE NYJ) – Position Rank: #7 Not bad. Keller tended to be hot-cold throughout the season, 172, 250 and 164 in weeks 1-3, then 20, 12, 98 and 53 over the next four. That’s why it is tough to start a guy like Keller, even though he officially finished a solid seventh among all tight ends.

144. ERIC – Bears (DST CHI) – Position Rank: #9 They still finished in the top-10, but since they finished third last year, this had to be a bit disappointing.

ROUND THIRTEEN

145. ERIC – Lee Evans (WR BAL) – Position Rank: #142 Not that this matters in fantasy, but it was his drop that kept the Ravens out of the Superbowl.

146. ROB M – Michael Crabtree (WR SF) KEEPER – Position Rank: #39 2011 was his best season to date, but that doesn’t say much. I really thought this kid coming out of college would be a star.

147. MOLLY – Buccaneers (DST TB) – Position Rank: #31 They were actually owned by three different teams all before week six, but they were just awful down the stretch.

148. JEFF – Darren Sproles (RB NO) – Position Rank: #10 A shocking sleeper to say the least. The Saints really showed the world how to use a little back like this. He finished the season with only 100 rushing attempts, but he caught 105 balls. Stunning. Too bad the Saints backfield is so damn crowded.

149. RICH B – Matt Cassel (QB KC ) – Position Rank: #27 It’s doubtful Cassel will be able to find a starting job next year. What’s my point? Does it really matter.

150. GRIFF – Greg Olsen (TE CAR) – Position Rank: #14 Despite the brillance of Cam Newton, Olsen actually had his worst season since his rookie year. Griff ended up cutting him by week one. Calderon grabbed him, started him from time to time, but cut him in week 12. Technically he won the title this year as a backup tight end for Bob.

151. MATT – Sam Bradford (QB STL) KEEPER – Position Rank: #31 Bomb. Huge Bomb. Thank God Matt drafted Matt Stafford. If he hadn’t this could have been a much worse season.

152. RICH C – Marcedes Lewis (TE JAC) – Position Rank: #30 2010 looked like a breakout year, as Lewis caught 58 balls for 700 yards and a solid 10 touchdowns. However, with a new quarterback on board, Lewis’ numbers took a huge dip.

153. DON – Robert Meachem (WR NO) – Position Rank: #42 He caught a touchdown in each of his first three games, but Don never needed him and he sent him packing in week six. Since he never caught enough balls for enough yards, no one picked him up.

154. COLBY – Neil Rackers (PK HOU) – Position Rank: #13 The third kicker taken and none have cracked the top-10.

155. ROBIO – DeMarco Murray (RB DAL) – Position Rank: #16 I don’t even know why I waste time grabbing sleepers late in the draft. I never show patience with them. I cut Murray in week two. Then Calderon picked him up when Felix Jones went out. For seven weeks, Murray was one of the best backs in football, averaging 245 PPG. Along with Michael Bush, Murray was turning Calderon into a dangerous team heading into the post-season. Yet Rich couldn’t find a win in the season’s final three weeks and there were no playoffs. However, heading into 2012, Murray looks like one of the better keeper options.

156. BOB – Isaac Redman (RB PIT) – Position Rank: #55 Bob steals Molly’s insurance policy, but it didn’t mean anything. Redman never did anything and was cut by week seven.

ROUND FOURTEEN

157. BOB – Packers (DST GB) KEEPER – Position Rank: #13 Last year the Packers D was one of the best, finishing second among all D’s. They looked like a stunningly great keeper. However, they struggled this year. In the end though, they didn’t struggle enough as Bob kept them on board and they helped lead him to a second straight title.

158. ROBIO – Heath Miller (TE PIT) – Position Rank: #15 Isn’t this about where Heath Miller finishes every season? I ended up cutting him before the season started. He rode with Bob for a while before finishing the season with Griff.

159. COLBY – Hakeem Nicks (WR NYG) KEEPER – Position Rank: #12 He finished 12th among receivers, so you can’t really complain about his production. Still, with the year Victor Cruz had, you can’t help feel like he had a down year. Colby kept him all season long, switching him in and out of the starting lineup. He has one more year of eligibility left in him.

160. DON – Austin Collie (WR IND) KEEPER – Position Rank: #91 No Peyton, no stats for Collie. Of course if both Manning and Wayne leave Indianapolis next year, could Collie suddenly be a starter? Inquiring minds want to know.

161. RICH C – Stephen Gostkowski (PK NE) – Position Rank: #9 Hey, we finally got a kicker who cracks the top-10! Sure it’s only ninth, but it is still good for this draft.

162. MATT – Tony Gonzalez (TE ATL) – Position Rank: #3 Mr. Neatock, the man knows how to find gems late in the draft. Seriously, he always finds great players late in the draft. I might have to give this its own post.

163. GRIFF – Thomas Jones (RB KC) – Position Rank: #68 He was just insurance for Jamaal Lewis, but it was insurance that I know Griff would never want to use. Charles ended up going down, but Thomas was no good. In fact he was so bad, the Chiefs moved a wide receiver into the running back spot.

164. RICH B – Torrey Smith (WR BAL) – Position Rank: #22 The rookie wideout had three big games in the regular season (scoring 492, 192 and 378). Too bad for Burrier he was never in his lineup for any of those three games. In fact, Rich only started Smith three times in the regular season and he produced just 100 total points in those three contests.

165. JEFF – Kevin Boss (TE OAK) – Position Rank: #34 Life without Eli didn’t workout for Boss, did it? Actually, I will take that back. It’s not like he was a good tight end with the Giants.

166. MOLLY – Todd Heap (TE ARI) – Position Rank: #44 Like so many careers, Heap’s appears to be over the second he stepped into the desert.

167. ROB M – Falcons (DST ATL) – Position Rank: #14 They had their moments, enough so Rob could keep them on board all season long and even start them depending on the match up. That’s about it.

168. ERIC – Donald Brown (RB IND) – Position Rank: #38 The opportunity was there thanks to Joseph Addai’s health, but once again Donald Brown could not take advantage of it. It might be time to call this former first-round pick from Connecticut a bust.

ROUND FIFTEEN

169. ERIC – Mason Crosby (PK GB) – Position Rank: #3 Finally, a solid place kicking pick. The Packers scored a ton and Crosby delivered, despite kicking in the harsh environment of Green Bay.

170. ROB M – Sebastian Janikowski (PK OAK) – Position Rank: #6 The dude was on fire, bombing 50-yard field goals multiple times in multiple games. He was set to be a first-team All-Robio kicker until Jason Campbell and Darren McFAdden got hurt and the Raiders offense dried up.

171. MOLLY – Billy Cundiff (PK BAL) – Position Rank: #12 After missing that game-tying field goal against the Patriots in the AFC title game, you have to believe his career is over, right? Yeah, I know this has nothing to do with fantasy, but what else can I say about a kicker who hit just one 50-yard field goal all season long.

172. JEFF – Alex Henery (PK PHI) – Position Rank: #20 He was no David Akers.

173. RICH B – Robbie Gould (PK CHI) – Position Rank: #4 Always solid, always consistent. Always a smart pick.

174. GRIFF – Jamaal Charles (RB KC) KEEPER – Position Rank: #93 Wow, what a huge disappointment. A 15-round keeper ready for his breakout season, ready to led Griff back to the promise land. He didn’t even get through two games before, tearing his ACL. While Griff survived the season, winning nine games, he never really was able to fill the void left by Charles. Just imagine what he could have done with a 1,400-yard back in his backfield.

175. MATT – Josh Brown (PK STL) – Position Rank: #31 Yikes, 31st? One would think that a guy who lives and works for the Rams would have saw this tragedy of a season coming.

176. RICH C – Montario Hardesty (RB CLE) – Position Rank: #61 A year after tearing his ACL, Hardesty would get a second try at this thing called NFL football. Well, the opportunity was there with Peyton Hillis struggling with injuries. Yet, Hardesty couldn’t stay healthy himself. He got less than 90 carries on the year.

177. DON – Jason Snelling (RB ATL) – Position Rank: #75 Insurance for Michael Turner, that is all.

178. COLBY – Stevan Ridley (RB NE) – Position Rank: #70 Ridley was the second Patriots’ running back grabbed by the Pounders, one of them had to breakout, right? Um, no.

179. ROBIO – Dan Carpenter (PK MIA) – Position Rank: #21 Not enough field goal attempts to be productive.

180. BOB – Adam Vinatieri (PK IND) – Position Rank: #29 And the final victim of Peyton Manning’s neck injury is…the Colts kicker.
