Andre Johnson is a good pick there. He's a beast, and I think he's the #1 fantasy WR.

Ok, why in the heck were Forte and Jackson both there for me at 1.05?!? That might have been one of the hardest draft decisions I ever made in this league.
I am a Rams fan I guess! In the end it came down to the playoff schedule, Forte has a brutal schedule at the end of the year. Now I just gotta hope Jackson plays more than 12 games this year...

i dont know eric i probably still would have gone with forte on this one just because of his ability to catch balls out of the backfield

He did have a 90 catch season a couple years ago. With the new offense he is suppose to play a Westbrook type roll thats a little more run-heavy, so I think he will certainly get his chances in the passing game. I'm confident if he stays healthy (I know, if) that I will be happy with the decision. Only 10 players averaged more points per game than Jackson last year, and 5 of them were TMQBs. Only 1 was a RB (DeAngelo).

I assume since we started the draft early, that trades are allowed. I accepted a trade for the 1.8 pick, and I know trading isn't sopposed to resume until the 6th, but with the draft starting early, I can only assume people would want keep going versus me waiting until the deadline has passed and make the trade. Officially the timer cannot start until after the deadline, so in the end this saves time. Thoughts???

I think you made the right call.
