Our first 14-team mock draft of '09
By Jamey Eisenberg | Senior Fantasy Writer Follow JameyFollow CBS Fantasy Football
In our first mock draft following the NFL Draft at the end of April, there were some controversial picks, and it was interesting to see what rounds the rookies were selected.
Now, we're taking it a step further.
The first mock draft was with 12 teams. LaDainian Tomlinson fell to the second round, Pierre Thomas was drafted in the third round and Knowshon Moreno was the first rookie drafted in Round 5. We also had owners draft Plaxico Burress and Edgerrin James, who are unsigned but still have potential.
Dave Richard and I broke down the mock draft with our analysis, but things have already changed since then with mini-camps and offseason workouts. For example, Tom Brady appears healthy and ready for training camp and LeRon McClain is now a fullback. These are just two potential moves that could affect your draft later this summer.
This new edition is a 14-team mock draft for those of you who play at an advanced level. And we'll continue doing drafts throughout the offseason with different variations to help you determine keeper value and give you some things to think about for your own league. So if there's a draft pick you like or feel was too early, send us an email to dmfantasyfootball@cbs.com. Put "Mock Draft" in the subject line and share your thoughts on the draft.
This is a standard-scoring league (six points for all touchdowns, one point for every 10 yards rushing and receiving, one point for every 25 yards passing and minus-2 for every turnover) with the rules a representation of most CBSSports.com formats. There is a starting lineup of QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, FLEX RB/WR, TE, K and DST and seven reserve spots. We use extra reserves to give you an example of what a deeper draft might look like.
Our draft order is as follows:
