2012 College Player Draft

1-Robert Woods, WR
2-Marcus Lattimore, RB
3-Justin Hunter, WR
4-Keenan Allen, WR-Very pleased with this pick! My 2nd ranked player at the 4 spot.
5-Montee Ball, RB
6-Matt Barkley, QB
7-Giovani Bernard, RB-Got my guy! Gio don't let me down! 2 trades went into this pick.
Trade One-Bernard Pierce and 23.09 for 23.05- Gave HoneyBDC Ray Rice's handcuff to move up 4 spots, which may have made trade 2 more palatable.
Trade Two-Evan Royster and 23.05 for 22.07-Traded to Damona who days earlier had rejected a trade of Royster and the 23.09 pick for 22.07. Maybe not having to drop back so far did the trick or maybe a few days passed and Damona grew more worried about his RB's with MJD holding out, Mathews injured, SJax on the edge of RB cliff, and Greene almost irrelevant in PPR.
Glad to get a targeted pick and turn picks 215 and 226 into the 7th pick of the first college draft.
8-Knile Davis, RB
9-Eddie Lacy, RB
10-Terrance Williams, WR
11-Marquise Lee, WR
12-Sammy Watkins, WR
13-Kenny Stills, WR
14-Logan Thomas, QB
15-Joseph Randle, RB
16-Ricky Seals-Jones, WR
17-Da'Rick Rogers, WR
18-De'Anthony Thomas, RB
19-Tyler Wilson, QB-Traded Jake Locker for this pick. Locker's last preseason game he was horribly inaccurate, a problem many scouts are worried about. That combined with Wilson dropping prompted me to make the move. Time will tell if this was bone-headed on my part as Locker is in a great situation. Big "plus" is that I like Wilson's intangibles and should be able to watch several of his games this season.
20-Dorial Green-Beckham, WR
21-Kenjon Barner, RB
22-Cobi Hamilton, WR
23-Landry Jones, QB
24-Jake Stoneburner, TE
Best Available That Went Undrafted
Marquess Wilson,WR
Ray Graham,RB
Christine Michael,RB
Tyler Eifert,TE

College Scouting...

The wrinkle that made this particular dynasty league irresistable is the fact that it has a college draft every August where you can pick 2 college players to reserve on a taxi squad. You can then follow these players through the college season and hope they develop into future high NFL draft picks who you get to keep without using a rookie draft pick on them in the spring. I have pick #4 and #21, so in this post I will rank players #1-21 along with notes and links to video. I will also keep a list of prospects that just missed the cut so I can track them for future consideration.

1-RB Marcus Lattimore http://www.rotoworld.com/player/cfb/130700/marcus-lattimore
knee injury, special talent/gamebreaker
