how exactly does this league work where you can draft 5 RBs?

Well our draft lasts 15 rounds. Each player has to draft the following:

3 running backs, 4 wide recievers, 2 quarterbacks, 1 kicker, 1 tight end, and 1 defense/special team, which leaves 3 "flex" picks. I used my "flex" picks to take 2 additional running backs and 1 additional wide reciever.

Personally I think 15 rounds is too much, as with 12 players that is 180 picks, so our draft ends up taking like 4 hours.

How many rounds does your draft last?

This is from memory so it might be wrong (I'm currently IMing scott setting up our FFL).

You draft 2qbs, 3rbs, 5wr, 1TE, 2K, 2Def. You had to play 1qb, 2rbs, 3wr, 1te, 1k, and 1 def.

14 rounds?

I think I'm missing something.

I agree with you on the Miller pick. I'd be a little concerned about WR. Doesn't Jerry Porter still want to be traded? And if that doesn't happen, isn't his quarterback still Aaron Brooks?

And your pick of Mason leads me to believe that you reject my theory that Steve McNair will need to have his entire torso amputated no later than week six.

I also agree that cooley will not have as great a season this year as he did last year because Brunell has more options to throw to.

By the time my third pick came around, Johnson, Smith, Owens, Harrison, and Holt were gone. It was either take a mid-shelf reciever or another starting running back. I think Mike Martz is going to run the ball far more in Detroit, and so I decided to go with Kevin Jones instead.

By the time round 4 came along, the Santana Moss was by far the best available.
