What do fantasy footballers say about the Giants?
I've been thinking about joining a fantasy football league so when I saw this fantasy football mock draft, I was pretty interested. The first round is all running backs, but Tiki Barber doesn't get picked until the second round. Considering that he's asking for a lighter workload, that certainly makes sense from a fantasy perspective. If he goes back to being a third down back he'll see fewer carries and that'll mean fewer yards. Plus if someone else becomes the short yardage back we might see fewer touchdowns from Tiki.
It's hard to say where Shockey will be drafted because of his foot. No one knows if he'll play every game at full strength... In this mock draft Tony Gonzalez is the first tight end taken and that's in the fifth round. I expect that Toomer will be drafted before the seventh in many leagues, but in this mock draft that's where he ends up.
