Ask DR U: Am I Crazy?
Todd asks, I have the 4th pick in my fantasy draft, and I am thinking of drafting Andre Johnson with that pick. Am I crazy to do that?
DR U: I would say you would be more brave than crazy. If Johnson is the man you are targeting, then pull the trigger on him. He certainly is not going to come back around to you for your next pick. Therefore, you only have that one chance to get him. The safe pick would be to go with Ray Rice, Michael Turner, Maurice Jones-Drew, or Drew Brees, but Johnson should have a big year too. So I don’t think the draft pick is as crazy as other people might think it is. Go with the top wideout and grab an upper tier running back with your next pick.

Questions for the 2010 NFL Season
There are several questions leading up to every NFL season. Here are just a few of the ones that have my attention.

2. Can Chris Johnson rush for over 2,000 rushing yards for the second year in a row?
3. Will Donovan McNabb make the Eagles pay during both games he plays against them this season?
4. Will Terrell Owens and Chad Ochocinco be able to co-exist in Cincinnati?
5. Can Wes Welker come back from his serious knee injury and put up another 100 reception season?
6. Can the Saints get back to the Super Bowl in 2010?
7. Will Dez Byrant overtake Roy Williams for the starting wideout job opposite Miles Austin before the season ends?
8. Can Brett Favre start in every game again this season?
9. Which rookie will emerge and have a Pro Bowl season?
10. Will this be the year the Chargers make the Super Bowl?
