NFL.com's standard (non-PPR) fantasy football magazine draft utilized a basic scoring system and required each owner to select a starting lineup of 1 QB, 2 RBs, 3 WRs, 1 FLEX (RB/WR/TE), 1 K and 1 DST. There were no limitations on the number of reserves drafted per position. Owners consisted of contributors from NFL.com's 2010 Fantasy Football Preview Guide, including Gil Brandt, Craig Ellenport, Michael Fabiano, Adam Rank and Steve Wyche of NFL.com, Jamie Dukes, Marshall Faulk and Rod Woodson of NFL Network, actor and writer Nick Bakay, NFL writer Matt Marini, publisher Jim Buckley and editor Jim Gigliotti.

| Fabiano's analysis: To the surprise of no one, Johnson and Peterson were the first two overall selections. I would expect that to be the case in most leagues. The one new trend that I did notice was the selection of three quarterbacks in the first eight picks. With the NFL becoming more of a passing league, this trend isn't shocking even in a scoring system that rewards just four points for passing touchdowns. I would have taken Rodgers ahead of Brees, but you can't argue with either quarterback. Bakay was the lone owner not to take either a signal-caller or a running back, instead grabbing the clear-cut No. 1 fantasy wide receiver, Andre Johnson. |

| Fabiano's analysis: Faulk's selection of Brady made it four quarterbacks in the first 13 overall picks. Again, this is going to be a worldwide trend in the first two rounds. However, I do think it was a little soon for Gigliotti to take Schaub. I see him as more of a third rounder. Overall, a total of three more quarterbacks came off the board in the first 24 picks. I like Bakay's selection of Mendenhall, who I think has first-round value. Mathews, not surprisingly, was the first rookie taken. He'll be a second or third rounder in most seasonal drafts. Rank secured two backfield beasts with his first two picks, landing Turner in Round 1 and Greene in Round 2. |

I was part of the wideout run, grabbing Wayne to go along with my backfield duo of Rice and Benson. I like Ellenport's selection of Johnson, who should rebound from a disappointing 2009 season. Two more quarterbacks came off the board in this round as well. Romo wasn't much of a surprise, but Favre went a little too high. While he was the third-highest point scorer among quarterbacks (based on fantasy points) last season, I just don't see him as being worth a third-round pick. The depth at quarterback has really decreased after 36 selections. |

| Fabiano's analysis: Best was the second rookie off the board and should be a solid No. 2 fantasy back for Faulk. I was surprised to see Gigliotti take Cutler, his second quarterback in three rounds. The move was apparently for future trade purposes, but I wouldn't have done it myself. Seeing the writing on the wall, Bakay took Jones ahead of Marion Barber. One of my favorite sleepers, Tate, was also grabbed up in this round. Since I wasn't going to take someone like Eli Manning or Kevin Kolb this soon, I decided to grab White as my No. 2 wideout. I was surprised to still see him on the board. Brandt took the first tight end of the draft, landing Clark. |

| Fabiano's analysis: This round included a major run on tight ends, as Gates, Witten, Davis and Daniels all came off the board. This will be a typical scenario in most drafts. Once the first tight end is taken, you should expect a run to occur. To prove how some of the mighty have fallen, Forte, a top-three pick last season, dropped into the fifth round. I took Ochocinco as my No. 3 wideout, so I'm pretty happy with the trio of Wayne, White and Ochocinco. Dukes landed a nice potential bargain with Stewart, who's coming off an 1,100-yard season. Rather than take a third wideout or a tight end, Bakay took a chance on Jacobs as his potential flex starter. |

| Fabiano's analysis: Another round dominated by receivers, a total of seven wideouts and three tight ends came off the board. By comparison, just one quarterback and one running back were selected. Rank landed a nice sleeper in Wallace, who could develop into the Steelers' top fantasy receiver. I was looking to land a tight end and was lucky to grab Gonzalez, but only after Celek and Finley went ahead of me. It's interesting that Welker, who could miss the start of the season as he recovers from major knee reconstruction, was taken by Dukes. That pick is either going to be an absolute steal or a major disappointment, but it's too far soon to tell. |

| Fabiano's analysis: With two running backs, three wideouts and a tight end already in the can, it was time for me to take a quarterback. Kolb, one of my favorite sleepers of the season, was the best option on the board. If he builds on the flashes of potential he showed in 2009, Kolb will be a No. 1 fantasy option. McNabb and Flacco were the other quarterbacks to come off the board this round. White's stock rose as a result of the trade that sent him to the Seahawks, and he'll serve as Gigliotti's third back. It's also interesting to note that Hardesty, another top sleeper on NFL.com, was selected by Wyche even though Jerome Harrison was still available. |

| Fabiano's analysis: This round started with a short run on tight ends, as Cooley, Winslow and Olsen were all taken. I like the former picks, but I'm not high on Olsen. Brandt took the first defense of the draft, choosing the Jets with the last pick of the round. I think it's too soon to take a defense, but I never take one until one of the last two rounds. Tomlinson, who's been a first-round pick for what seems like forever, went to Ellenport. Despite a six-game suspension (it might be trimmed to four) and a tough schedule, I took Roethlisberger. Sometimes you have to take risks, which is what taking Big Ben was at this point. If Kolb falters, I have potential insurance. |

| Fabiano's analysis: A number of backup running backs came off the board in this round, including Bradshaw, Brown, Jones and Barber. Jones, who was a top-five fantasy running back in each of the last two seasons, has lost a ton of fantasy value. Gigliotti is obviously high on the Bears offense, as he took Aromashodu and Knox in consecutive rounds. I see the former as the better sleeper pick. Ryan has a tough schedule, but he could turn into a nice value pick for Rank. If Ryan struggles, Rank will be in trouble at quarterback. The round ended with two aging wideouts, Houshmandzadeh and Driver, and a potential draft bargain in Bush (if he can avoid injuries). |

| Fabiano's analysis: If McFadden earns the top spot in Oakland and makes good on his potential, Ellenport could have a steal in this round. With three running backs and three wideouts on my roster, I took the best player available in Williams. Gigliotti grabbed Bryant, who could be a great value if he passes Roy Williams in camp. If Welker is out to start the regular season, Buckley might have landed a solid deep sleeper in Edelman. Brandt finished the round with another rookie wideout, taking Thomas as his third option. The problem with the pick is that he already had Royal as his No. 2, so that position could be a problem for his team in 2010. |

Thomas has some upside as well, especially with McNabb under center for the Redskins. I took McGahee, mostly as a handcuff for Rice, but also for his touchdown potential in what should be a productive Ravens offense. Two more defenses also came off the board, as Wyche took the Vikings and Gigliotti took the Steelers. Faulk ended the round with the addition of Leinart, who has the talent around him to succeed, but is still a risk-reward option in drafts. |

The most interesting of the bunch was Owens, who is still a free agent but still warranted a late-round pick by Dukes. I grabbed Evans as my No. 4 fantasy wideout. While the Bills lack a solid quarterback, Evans should at least lead the team in targets this season. Clearly, everyone involved in this draft thinks Lynch is the third-best runner in Buffalo behind Jackson and Spiller. He came off the board in this round, going to Woodson. Brandt took the Ravens defense, which was odd when you consider he had already taken the Jets in Round 8. |

The round also saw four defensive units come off the board, as Ellenport took the 49ers, Buckley took the Eagles, Dukes took the Packers and Bakay took the Saints. With only a few rounds left, this is a trend that most owners will notice. I decided to take Williams, partially because I'm a Cowboys fan and partially because he was worth a flier as my No. 5 wideout. If Gonzalez moves past Collie during camp, Gigliotti could have himself a nice bargain. |

| Fabiano's analysis: Despite the late stage of the draft, there were still some nice players on the board in this round. Both of the Millers, Heath and Zach, could turn into spectacular bargains at the tight end position. Zach, who now has Campbell throwing him the football, is a low-end No. 1 option on my board. Three rookies, Bradford, Dwyer and Gerhart, were also selected. Based on the fact that I don't have an elite No. 1 quarterback, I decided to take Smith. He's got a fairly favorable schedule ahead and can be a backup and matchup-based starter for me until Roethlisberger returns. Two kickers, Kaeding and Hartley, also came off the board here. |

| Fabiano's analysis: Ellenport might have landed the best value of the entire round, grabbing Carlson to be his No. 2 tight end. The position found a lot of success in coach Pete Carroll's earlier NFL tenure with the Patriots and Jets, and I think Carlson will see far more chances as a pass catcher this season. Three kickers, Longwell, Akers and Crosby, were selected, and two defenses (Cowboys, Texans) came off the board as well. In another example of how the mighty have fallen, Slaton fell all the way to Buckley in Round 15. Slaton was a first-round pick in most 2009 drafts, but he's lost a lot of his luster with Tate and Arian Foster on the depth chart. |

Bironas, Succop, Hanson, Janikowski and Prater were taken at the kicker position, while the Bears and Dolphins rounded out the defensive units. Bakay, clearing thinking that Leinart would falter as the starting quarterback in Arizona, took a chance on Anderson with a flier pick. Buckley took a flier of his own, picking Gronkowski to be his No. 2 fantasy tight end behind Celek. I wouldn't have touched Heyward-Bey myself, but he went to Brandt as was our Mr. Irrelevant. |
