2009 Draft Review: Aggies


The hit or miss owner of the Aggies (one wire to wire championship thanks to LT; two horrendous seasons) hit the draft lottery. Hitting the lottery, however, hasn't meant much in the last few seasons (Tomlinson in 07 and 08, Clinton Portis in 06, etc.)
Mark rolled the dice twice in his draft: 1st by nabbing Pierre Thomas, a rise in most mocks, in the second round, and then by waiting until the 8th round to nab his 1st QB, a Plaxico-less Eli Manning. If Thomas's MCL injury isn't serious and Mark can find some consistency from the Big Ben/Eli/Cassel trio, the Aggies could be a top contender. I, however, am not a huge fan of any of the Aggies' QBs, which could prove to be their downfall in a QB-heavy league.

Key Player: Pierre Thomas
Predicted Record: 6 to 8 wins

Potential Keeper: Jamaal Charles (round 11)
