Draft Profile Capsules Picks 5-8

Time to look at the teams picking 5-8

#5 Dad (The Bad Robofies)
Previous Draft Sports- 2 In 2011
                                     9 In 2012
# of Drafted Players who stayed on Dad's Team
7 in 2011 (out of 15)
7 in 2012 (out of 15)

Previous 1st round Picks
2011-Chris Johnson
2012-Cam Newton

Playoff Appearances-2

Dad now has two seasons of Fantasy Football under his belt, and has experienced both picking low and high. This year, he's in the middle at #5. Dad shocked everyone by taking Cam Newton in Round 1 last year, but in the middle of the draft this year, I expect a conservative safe approach. Dad's weakness is probably his late round drafting. He kept his first 6 picks of the draft, but rounds 7-15, only Matt Schaub was there at the end. You never know what you're gonna get with Dad, and his drafting affects me and Kenny who he is sandwiched in between.

#6 Kenny (Not Even Lying)
Previous Draft Spots- 2 in 2010
                                    9 in 2011
                                    4 in 2012

# of Drafted Players who stayed on Kenny's Team

4 in 2010 (out of 15)
6 in 2011 (out of 15)
3 in 2012 (out of 15)

Previous 1st Round Picks
2010-Adrian Peterson
2011-Aaron Rodgers
2012-LeSean McCoy

# of Playoff Appearances-1

Kenny's like me, a wheeler and a dealer. Kenny overturned his team a lot last season as evidenced by only keeping 3 of original draft picks on his roster (Romo, Jamaal Charles, Miles Austin). Kenny is smack dab in the middle of the draft this year, and the real key for him is what Dad's gonna do at #5. Dad's unpredictability makes it hard to game plan as he could go so many different ways at that position. Kenny's got an eye for talent too, so he's a dangerous late round drafter (though he didn't keep him, he did draft Randall Cobb in the 13th round. It never really matters where Kenny picks, as he'll find a way to draft a solid team. Keeping it intact though, is another question entirely.

#7 Mike (Passion ofthe Puente)
Previous Draft Spots-7 in 2010
                                   6 in 2011
                                   1 in 2012

# of  Drafted Players who stayed on Mike's Team
5 in 2010 (out of 15)
4 in 2011 (out of 15)
3 in 2012 (out of 15)

Previous 1st Round picks
2010-Andre Johnson
2011-Michael Turner
2012-Aaron Rodgers

# of Playoff Appearances-1

How Mike made the playoffs with his team is beyond me. First all of all, he just flat out dropped Vincent Jackson after 1 game. V-Jax ended up with a terrific season that Dad enjoyed off waivers. He took Aaron Rodgers at #1, which was shocking, but not absurd. Unfortunately though Rodgers was great, but wasn't #1 pick great. He lost his 2nd pick (MJD) to a season ending injury and made a series of trades with the rest of his roster. The one bright spot though was Dez Bryant, a STEAL, at round 4. Mike's in the middle of this year's draft, right around where he drafted the previous two seasons before last year.

#8 Mark (Shock The Monkey)
No Previous Draft History

Mark is one of the two new guys in our draft. Should be interesting to see how he approaches his first draft with us. I have no idea what to expect here.
