Rivers would be the top pick in fantasy drafts

So, what if you could draft your fantasy football team all over again? It would sure look a lot different than your actual draft! Just for fun, I put together a three-round “mock” based on fantasy points (NFL.com standard scoring system). The first round lists players by 2010 points through the first nine weeks of the season. The second and third rounds are also based on points but takes into consideration the previous selections. So if Team 1 takes a quarterback in Round 1, that team would not take another quarterback in the next two rounds.

(Year-to-date fantasy points in parenthesis)
