Your strategies? Our draft is early-ish this year (August 17 to accomodate out-of-towners) so I'm starting to think about who's going where.So, to recap, my very long draft strategy this year can be boiled down this way:
1. Get an elite quarterback. Ideally Vick but definitely one of the top seven.
2. Get an elite tight end. Ideally Gates, but definitely one of the top five.
3. Your roster should have just one kicker, one defense, one elite tight end, one quarterback (unless you feel like you need Vick insurance, in which case you can grab a nice arm late) and the rest need to be nothing but wide receivers and running backs. We know players will pop, we know they'll likely be running backs and wide receivers, we just don't know who they'll be, so the idea is to maximize your chances at getting one of those players. Panning for gold, as it were.
4. Your first four picks should include one quarterback, one running back, one wide receiver and either Gates or another wide receiver or running back.
5. Your next 10 picks will be the best available running backs and wide receivers, with the only exception being one of the other four elite tight ends in the fifth or sixth round if you don't get Gates.
6. You will end with a defense and kicker.
