Seems I'm the only one complaining (and I would be regardless of if I was #2 or #16). Surely someone else in this league takes offense as well?

Cory:

Eddie's league scoring favors Manning - he was #2 behind Tomlinson. I'm not sure what the deal is, but if Eddie is set up to get the #1 pick because he signed up first, that is heinously bogus. If that occurs, I will enter what I like to call "League Destruction Mode". It's not pretty. But let's see what actually happens first, shall we?

In the meantime, in the interest of blowing up everyone's predraft rankings, here's my list, based upon 2006 stats being plugged into this year's league scoring system. It isn't perfectly in line with Yahoo, but close:

(If you haven't figured it out by now, yes, I know we can't count on a lot of these people/teams repeating their 2006 performances, and no, I don't care about winning this league - let its secrets be divulged!!! The list is more useful as an instrument to demonstrate how the scoring system slots everyone.)
