12-Team Expert Mock Draft
BeastOrBust was asked to participate in a 12-Team Experts Mock Draft hosted by Steven Lourie of the Football Fan Spot. This is a 12-Team, 16 Round Mock Draft under the following assumptions: Standard Scoring, Non-PPR and 6 Points for a TD. A nice feature of this mock was for each participant to provide a comment on their draft strategy with each pick. Please keep in mind loyal Dynasty Readers that this mock is Redraft based, and although varies from our typical Dynasty content, is an excellent tool for gauging the perceived current player value for 2010 pre-season trade negotiations etc. Feel Free to drop us a note to let us know how we did. Enjoy.

Terrell Owens
Who would have ever thought Terrell Owens would be rounding out the latter half of his career in Buffalo? Despite that fact he's reaching an age most would be considering retirement from the NFL, TO remains a dangerous threat in the passing game. With a decent supporting cast in Buffalo there is a lot of potential for Owens to post characteristic numbers in 2009, although the potential exists for Owens to hate the city of Buffalo and the QB throwing him the football. TO is a WR freak of nature, and also extremely frustrating to own on a fantasy roster. What do you think about his Dynasty value? Beast or Bust?
