My team wound up like this:

Jean, Lestar HOU WR |
| 15.03 |
Houston Texans Defense |
| 16.10 |
Flynn, Matt SEA QB |

Royster, Evan WAS RB |
| 18.10 |
Rackers, Neil WAS PK |
| 19.03 |
Denver Broncos Defense |
| 20.10 |
Feely, Jay ARI PK |
As you can see, I again went running back, running back during the first two rounds. Your draft can get thin at running back fast, and tight end, quarterback and wide receiver are very deep. I probably went a tad running back crazy in this draft, as I wanted to protect Lynch with Turbin, and Royster in round 17 was too tempting not to grab.
Some tidbits on this draft:
1. Quarterback Can Be Had Late
Peyton Manning went during round eight and Eli Manning during round six, so you don't have to get a quarterback during the first three rounds. Brees during round three was too good a value to pass up for me.
2. Wide Receiver Is DEEEEPPPP
Bowe, Percy Harvin, Steve Johnson and DeSean Jackson all went during the fifth round.

So, how did I do? Let me know.
Another mock draft is coming soon, as well as some things to watch for in training camps.
