This evening for the heck of it I did a couple of fantasy football mock drafts online at ESPN. It didn’t have any real practical purpose because we are doing our draft live and in person with people in a room, but it was kind of fun anyway.
After the top 3 or 4 purpose picks I like to get players that will be on teams that I will be able to see play on Sunday. Because Atlanta and or Carolina are pretty much guaranteed to be televised locally, players from those two teams, plus Tampa Bay and New Orleans make up about half my roster.
