Slow PPR Live Draft Blog, Entry 4

So with the briefings from last night, I decided not to take the trade and stay put. I could not justify making that deal in my mind. My pick in the 3rd round was fairly simple similar with the Wayne pick. Progress in the draft is shown below and justification of my pick.

Position availability goes as follows:

QB:
Manning
Rodgers
Rivers

RB:
Bush
Lynch
Addai
Moreno

WR:
Owens
Housh
Marshall
OchoCinco

I did not think too hard on this decision and ended up taking Manning. I debated whether or not to take Bush in this format, but Manning at the 34th pick feels like the right pick. I will be dreaming about that Manning-Wayne combo going off this year. Next pick may be soon as I have the third pick in the fourth round.
