    I agree with taking Alexander where you did. I assume you got him at 4 or 5, if at 4 good job not taking Gore I think. I think Shaun is strictly better. On that note I also love how people argue that Alexander is an injury risk in defense of Gore. True he has been injured, less we forget Gore missed 24 whole months of football due to a knee injury just 3 years ago. Come on.

    Not quite sure how Manning fell to 15th/16th in your draft. Or maybe Alexander fell in the first round. At any rate grabbing Manning at any point in the 2nd round is remarkable. Good for you.

    Holt's a great pick in the 3rd, probably took Moss too early (but I guess that's my opinion that he's not going to be able to be great in Belichek's scheme, you're entitled to yours).

    I think you took Tony Gonzalez too early. Why not use this pick on a 2nd running back or 3rd WR? You can get Crumpler rounds later. Winslow after that (but in that scenario be mindful of getting a good backup as he is currently on the PUP list).

    Edge is a fantastic pick in the 7th round, but I think you could have done yourself better than picking Terry Glenn in the 8th. I have to believe that one of Braylon Edwards or Laverneous Coles were around. Maybe Reggie Brown?

    After this point in the draft, I think my first priority would be to address your defense and get a very solid one like San Diego or Chicago first. I think those two with New England, Minnesota, and Jacksonville will be the top tier defensively as far as consistancy is concerned. You really don't want to start a defense that is going to get you negative points 4 times a year.

    Jamal Lewis is another great steal in the 11th. Great, great backup.

    The only recommendation I have is that you get rid of AZ as your defense. Pick up Cleveland off waivers. They have been building their 3-4 defense for the past 4 years and now have the secondary to make it work with their new aquisitions. Arizona will face a lot of matchups where they will struggle not to get lit up in the NFC west.

    Pretty good job overall. Good luck

    QB-10. Peyton Manning is the best QB in the NFL. Big Ben will have a good season after last year's miserable season.

    RB- 6. You're running backs are very shaky. James will run into another brick wall, Lewis is good if healthy, and Alexander can't run well if Hutchinson isn't on the Seahawks.

    WR-7. I like Holt and he was a good pick. Moss will be good but not great. You're 3rd WR is shaky. You need a better #3 WR that's better than Glenn.

    TE- 9. Gonzalez is a great TE and Miller is a very solid backup TE.

    K- 7. Wilkins is a pretty good kicker but not the best one.

    DEF- 10. Baltimore has the best defense in the league. Arizona's defense is pretty good and that was a great pick in Round 15.

    Depth- 5. Depth is your weakest area. I think you need to upgrade your depth by getting rid of Jones or Henderson and get a kicker. There are still good kickers in free agency.

    Overall: 7. Make a trade to get better RB's, find a better #3 wideout, and get rid of Henderson or Jones. If you do all of those 3 things then I think you will win the Super Bowl. Good Luck!!!

    you have pretty good RBs in alexander and james. manning will be a stud but you need a better backup. big ben is ok, but not a good backup. you got some good WRs but you selected randy moss a bit early. you also picked gonzalez and the baltimore defense to early. but still, pretty good draft.

    You did real good. I think Holt & Moss at WR is excellent. Your RB's all have injury concerns from the past., but I did hear that Jamal Lewis came to camp in great condition so he might have a great year.

    There are no starting QBs other than Russel? Odd. Cause you have a pretty good team so I'm guessing it isn't a big league. Well trade for one. I'd see if you can get Flacco or Ryan. Both are probably going to have big years and most likely are wasting away on a bench.

    you started out good but you drafted a TE, K, and DEF too early. you should of drafted backup at the skill positions first then those other positions. you should always draft your starters first then fill in some backups before jumping the gun on those other positions

    Your starters are good, but I don't like your depth. That's why you don't draft kickers in the 9th round.
