Draft rankings that mean absolutely nothing...

Well, the draft was...eventful.  Not surprisingly, Joe fucked up almost immediately, bidding close to $50 for Dallas Clark.  We laughed at Joe.  Joe laughed at Joe.  A few players later, Dekker bid $83 for Deangelo Williams.  We laughed and joked about it; Dekker was not laughing.  After some fervent chat banter, a couple angry texts, and a clusterfuckful pausing of the draft room...we worked it out.  For those of you that didn't know exactly what happened, I made the decision to have Joe and Dekker keep the players, and charge them a bit over their pre-draft value ($10 over Clark's 19; $15 over Williams's 47).  I thought it was fair; maybe you disagree.  But what's done is done.  I thought the alternative (redrafting all the players drafted since Dallas Clark) would have caused a longer delay.

Anyway, after the jump, here are my rankings of the teams immediately after the draft based entirely on your top 4 draftees (by price)...



12. H oosgow (I don't like this team)
RB Ryan Mathews 36
RB Jamaal Charles 30
WR Roddy White 39
TE Dallas Clark 29

11. Hung Like Blag ojevich's Jury (great name. poor team...mostly because I've always hated Frank Gore)
QB Tony Romo 26
RB Frank Gore 59
RB Pierre Thomas 15
WR Calvin Johnson 30

10. Pura Vida (i should probably rank blick higher because of Chris Johnson, but his other players are garbage)
RB Chris Johnson 74
RB Ronnie Brown 15
WR Vincent Jackson 20
WR/TE Mike Sims-Walker 12

9. Team Steuber (I really like Brees. And then...nothing. What did you do with your money?)
QB Drew Brees 54
RB Matt Forte 18
RB Knowshon Moreno 26
WR Steve Smith 14

8. Team Dekker (So bitter. But...his top 3 are pretty badass. I think he might have overpaid for deangelo, though)
QB Aaron Rodgers 56
RB DeAngelo Williams 62
WR Randy Moss 50
RB  Michael Bush 6

7. Team _____s (Oddly, I think all 4 off these guys are overrated in some way. That's probably not good)
QB Tom Brady 42
WR Miles Austin 34
WR Steve Smith 29
TE Antonio Gates 24

6. Team beb (Turner will be a beast. Wayne is awesome, but might be old. Shonn will get hurt and LT shines)
RB Michael Turner 52
RB Shonn Greene 51
WR Reggie Wayne 47
WR/TE Dwayne Bowe 10

5. Nude Tayne (Too much for Grant, he sucks, I like the Colston/AJ/Jennings receiver trio)
RB Ryan Grant 48
WR Andre Johnson 56
WR/TE Marques Colston 25
OP Greg Jennings 29

4. Team xAdam (he got his badass raven...is he worth it? I think Bmarsh, Mendenhall, and Ricky overperform)
RB Ray Rice 63
RB Rashard Mendenhall 38
WR Brandon Marshall 36
OP Ricky Williams 16

3. Dr Teeth n the Electric Mayhem (Sovic said he didn't love auction, but he did very well. He got a good QB, a great RB, a great WR, and a nice backup RB)
QB Philip Rivers 31
RB Maurice Jones-Drew 66
RB Jonathan Stewart 22
WR Anquan Boldin 33

2. The Warfishes The Warfishes (This team looks good. It should probably be #1, but I"m self-centered. If sjax recovers this year, this could be awesome)
QB Peyton Manning 41
RB Steven Jackson 55
RB Beanie Wells 26
WR Larry Fitzgerald 50

1. Wolverine's Fat Brother (I like my team. Well BUI Benson and Desean are headcases. But Schaub and AP make me wet)
QB Matt Schaub 33
RB Adrian Peterson 69
RB Cedric Benson 40
WR DeSean Jackson 32

I'm look forward to beating beb in week 1.

Whiteford made a good point. His team is definitely better than xadam's. In retrospect, xadam's team kind of sucks. I don't know what I was thinking.

these rankings are absurd. i think the only thing i agree with is that joe's team is the worst.
