I voted team 2 with 11 just behind it.

Team 3 gave our league credibility a hit, but for comedy relief, it was quite entertaining. He was whining about picking 2nd to last, he wanted Calvin Johnson so bad he didn't know who else to pick. He was going to pick Andrew Luck with his 1st round pick, but at the last second decided on Eli Manning. And here's the kicker again...with his 1st pick in the 2nd round which was like 2 spots later...he selects Nate Burleson!

Which team is yours?

Team 1. I've had the same strategy in like 10 practice mocks and they all come out the same. Foster is the consensus# 1 pick and Darren Sproles and Percy Harvin are rated super high in PPR leagues so I think I did well. I initially was going to go QB earlier aiming for Matt Ryan, but just settled on stocking up on RB's and Percy Harvin.
