The unique Rotisserie Musings 2009 Fantasy Football Rankings continue with a look at the team drafted with the 2nd pick. I conducted a 12-team PPR draft in which I selected for each team. This has the effect of showing where particular players actually go in drafts and demonstrates a commitment to selecting kickers and defense/special teams at the end. As a matter of fact, I didn't bother selecting any.

Matt Forte is definitely an unconventional pick there. Why Forte over MJD??
Thanks for bringing that up. I am not convinced MJD can carry a full-time rushing load and maintain his deep involvement as a receiver. In a PPR format, those 60 receptions are what makes one look past MJD's lack of 1,000 rushing seasons. The Marion Barber example sways me.
Forte was a full-time back as a rusher and receiver. I think the addition of Cutler helps him as it should force a man out of the box.
I have the 2nd pick in a PPR on Monday evening and expect to take Forte, but a slight change in either situation i.e. injury could make me change.
