My goodness what a draft. Bradforsd was a little high for my liking but He is the most talented QB in the draft and give him a few years and some additional linemen and he could develop real well. I can admit it now that if Bradford came out last season I would have drafted him over Matt Stafford and I did take Stafford early two so while it seems a little high to me I do not think it is too offending.
I absolutely love the value of McCluster excellent pick. I am not a bog Spiller fan but you took him where he should go no 2 or 3 overall. I would be curious about why you chose him over Dez if you would not mind sharing. I think Witherspoon was a steal at 3.8 Not sure if Price or Dixon will do much but they are PS guys who if you can afford to let them sit very well may pan out for you.
I am not sure what to think of Shipley yet... there are a lot of receivers in Cincinatti right now and it is impossible to guess how it will shake down just yet. My early thoughts are since they brought in a couple of Vets in Bryant and Jones that those two with Caldwell will have the inside track to be productive. But... I like Shipley's 2009 production at Texas so I can not count him out yet.
I gave you an A on the strength of prospects 1-4 and t hink 5-7 has enough talent there that one may stick and do well.

I graded a B
Can't fault Spiller as the #2. I really don't mind Bradford at 1.8 because I think the everyone's value after about 1.6 is really close and no one really stands out to me in that grouping. I like McCluster's possible value at 2.8. Love the Weatherspoon pick. I was in conversations with a couple people in this league because I didn't understand why he was falling so far down. I think that was a great value. The last three picks I didn't really understand. Maybe you're higher on them, but your pretty set at WR already. Since you are strong at WR, I would have expected guys at a different position to put on the PS and that's the only reason I didn't give an A.

I think Spiller might be a bit of a McFadden style situation with talent but no team to enable fantasy performance. With Brady I'm surprised you didn't rather wait to take a QB onto your practice squad. I like the value of McCluster, and love the value of Weatherspoon, so overall I think I gave a B - you took a lot of good players, although with Pitta and NE's WR situation I wouldnt be surprised to see one of your last two picks not get onto their teams active rosters.

Brady is getting older so Bradford was a solid pick. I lik it a lot. You stole McCluster from me, i thought he would fall to 3.2. ( i thought i would get him or Tebow there.) With Spiller he will be a stud but he may be in a Felix type situation, and the problem with that is you also have Felix. I dont like Weatherspoon, Ive heard he doesnt have the heart to make an impact in this league. i really liked Shippley going into the draft but Cincy ruined it for me.
