Fantasy Football Draft This Afternoon; Who Shoud I Pick?

I have the 12th and 13th overall picks, in a 12 team snake draft. I'm thinking Marian Barber and Randy Moss. All of the really big players should be gone by then. Then I'm hoping either Brees will fall far enough I can get him with the 24th pick. Sound like a good idea? If not what are some players I should consider who may be left by then?

Update:

Yea if Brady is there I'll take him. I'm assuming he won't be. Otherwise I'm not really sure. I think some of the big RBs will be gone.

If Moss isn't available then maybe TO. I have a feeling this will be the Cowboys year, this coming from an Eagles fan.

Update 2:

Pronk,

I don't plan on taking Manning. He has been healthy for so long, he is bound to get injured soon, or reinjured this year. The Colts have three strong teams behind them in their division, they could have a hard time this season anyway.

I agree with you about Larry Johnson. He is way overrated, I knew that last year. I have been thinking of picking how you have it laid out.

Also does anybody else agree that the Saints will have a huge regular season? I look at their schedule and it might be the easiest in the NFL. I'm thinking about taking Brees and Bush for that reason.

    First off AVOID Manning with your 1st 2 picks.He's dinged up,but more importantly the Colts tend to bench him at the end of regular seasons to save him for the playoffs..

    1-2) picks 12-13,I'd take Brady,Moss,Gore,Barber,Portis,Lynch,or R.Grant (Avoid L.Johnson he's past his prime/over rated.)

    3) pick 37=D.Brees,T.Holt,Chad Johnson,Plaxico Burress,Earnest Grahm,D.McFadden-Could have big year.

    4)pick 38=Carson Palmer,S.Holmes,Wes Welker,Thomas Jones,

    Jason Witten-Like an extra WR at the TE position.

    5)pick 61=Calvin Johnson-If you can get C.J. here grab him,,roto world

    is predicting a bust out season for him.Other options may be Marvin Harrison,K2 may drop to ya here,or D.McNabb.

    6)pick 62=Hines Ward,Dallas Clark,D.Bowe,Selvin Young,

    Rashard Mendenhall

    7)pick 85=J.Shockey,J.Cutler,J.Cotchery,David Garrard,Joey Galloway

    8)pick 86=Minn/San Diego defence,hopefully this will complete you starting unit accept for your kicker..The rest of the draft get your kicker+backups~~~~G{}{}d Luck!

    Randy Moss won't be there, he will get picked 8/9/10 right before you.

    But I would get the best RB and best WR available... then I'd go RB/RB something like Michael Tucker/Thomas Jones/Willie Parker then get QB/WR like Eli/Hasselbeck/Farve and Lee Evans/Driver/Burleson

    12th is a tough spot...

    Adrian Peterson is definitely the pick LT would be a wasted pick and recievers are unpredictable. Tom Brady is a decent choice but I would stay away from him because you don't know how he will come back and play.

    If you can't get Peyton or Brady then hold on for a while at QB. Careful with MB3.

    MB3 should be there,if not maybe Ryan Grant.TO should also be there or Reggie Wayne.Romo or Brees will be there at 24.hope this helps

    if brady is there i would take him. then for sure take the best available RB. waiting past that point for your RB1 will really hurt you. if brady isnt there then sure go moss/ RB.
