#TwitMock Rounds 5 & 6 – Fantasy Football Experts Draft

We’re already into the fifth and sixth rounds of this #TwitMock Fantasy Football Experts Draft! We’ve seen just a handful of quarterbacks and only a couple tight ends come off the board.

Follow along here and on Twitter for over the better course of a week as Fantasy writers make picks.

We’ll also be tweeting analysis about each of our picks, and the analysis will be posted here for readers to follow along with.

Here are the picks and write-ups from:

This draft began on Monday, Aug. 13, with the hashtag #TwitMock.

The #TwitMock Fantasy Football draft is a NON-PPR league that scores four points for passing TDs, and starts 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K and 1 DST. There is no flex position for this league.

ROUND FIVE

 

5.01 Antonio Gates, TE, San Diego Chargers

#TwitMock 2012 5.01 TE Antonio Gates, SD: Healthier than in years. Loss of V-Jack will keep the primary targets on him. http://t.co/939X8IWk

5.08 Shonn Greene, RB, N.Y. Jets

TC Cannon of FantasySharks.com


#TwitMock @ selects Shonn Greene @ 5.08 – Greene will certainly out produce Tebow and can be FF Important as a cheap RB2. (I hope.)

I’m a big fan of Stevie Wonder, plus I like him even more as a WR2. It also helps that the Bills have no receivers behind him. #TwitMock

I tend to work under the assumption that holdouts will sign before Week 1. Hopefully Bowe reports sooner, rather than later. #TwitMock
