It's May 1st - How about round 3?

3.01 Freddy (Peterson - 1, Maroney - 2)

Getting alittle nervous, aren't you? Lord knows you need a pass catcher but unfortunately for you, Laurence doesn't even play on 3rd downs...oops! Tough luck - thankfully for you, the mistake can be averted since it's May 1st. But given where we're at now, you hate the Giants but love a studly red zone target who plays through pain on a weekly basis. The good thing for you is that Plax handles "pain" without having a trophy named after him...welcome back, Freddy!

3.02 SchoolGirls (L.T. - 1, Lynch - 2)

22 picks in and you would think someone could line-up in the flank but you're different than most - CLEARLY! The good thing for you is the perennial underachiever, Ocho Stinko, is sitting pretty...he has to play, he will get targeted, and most of all, he will win you about 3 weeks and lose you another 10. Better hold-on because this ride sucks.

3.03 UCB (Addai - 1, STUD - 2)

Sitting with 2 top-10 WRs, the safest back on the board in the most balanced offense, and likely the next Tom Brady throwing the ball in Cleveland (have you seen his weapons?) - I can go anywhere. Do I like Anquan and his sick YAC? How about grabbing McFadden - it's not like Chester Taylor is in Oakland... I do love me a reliable TE in a dynamic offense. But book Roy Williams because playing opposite TO should do wonders...

3.04 Ricky B. (Jackson - 1, Smith - 2)

I'm beginning to wonder if you might go T.B. in the 1st given the easiest schedule and the Cheater's propensity for beating teams down with the pass but I digress...Since Campbell is likely under center for you, Boldin is the man because what's a fantasy roster without two WRs under 5'9" anyway?

3.05 Juice (Westbrook - 1, Andre Johnson - 2)

Let's see...who else has both an incredibly high ceiling but a floor lower than D&D's? You're intrigued by Fast Willie (he's still going to get the lion's share for well over 1,000 yds and a few TDs) but you have always loved Big Game despite not having one yourself - well, my friend - he's in your sights - are you gonna pull the trigger? Welcome Aboard!

3.06 D&D (McGahee - 1, Fitz - 2)

You're set at QB...but you would've expected to be set somewhere else too considering you actually think you have 3 potential keeps on the offensive side. Well, you don't. In fact, you're keeping Cotchery but he doesn't really count, does he? Nope. Rumor has it they picked up a game-changing TE in the draft who does EVERYTHING Cotchery does but ADDS the "game-changing" part. Oh, you're on the clock...you'll take Winslow because you love the 5 nationally televised games with the pass-happy offense that has a sucky defense. You've played enough to know, a bad defense means you're offense needs lots of points - and fast!

3.07 Costco (Portis -1, Braylon - 2)

Can you really count on Lee Evans? You are tempted by Peyton but keeping Dallas Clark. But when a player falls that screams VALUE - Ronnie Brown is the guy. It kills Jamal's value to take him here so you don't. But I have to admit, this slot sucks right now...

3.08 Ninja (Moss - 1, Reggie - 2)

You have never been a QB guy until one was solely responsible (oh yeah, that schedule was cush too...) for your success in 2007. You should take Manning here but will your pride let you...well, that same pride screwed you in the 1st. Fool me once, shame on you...Fool me twice, shame on me. Great saying but aren't you the only fool in the picture? Thank God you're brother is drafting too! In the end, you take Peyton...good move - good value.

3.09 DNice (Brady - 1, Barber - 2)

Have to admit, love your draft so far...it's been a long wait but the right choices are waiting for you. Jamal. LenDale. Fast Willie. You're not lovin' the WRs here so you push it and grab LenDale and his 30+ carries a game. No brainer despite your smoke machine working overtime last weekend...

3.10 Brain (LJ - 1, TO - 2)

Too early for Vincent Jackson. Too late for a quality RB. What the hell are you gonna do? I can't wait to find out...but I think you're tickled at Gonzo reluctantly waiting to join your squad. The bright side for you - Romo is throwing the ball. The downside for Gonzo - Brodie Croyle is throwing him the ball...
