I was partaking in drafts when Favre was still retired, and I grabbed him with the second-to-last pick in every draft. That turned out to be OK.

And while Cassel was on the board for about as long as Orton was, he’s now producing touchdowns at a quality rate (2 in each of past 3 games).

Good mentionings, though. But I don’t agree that Ray Rice is a “back-up”. His and McGahee’s roles are very well defined by now.

Rice gets the yards. McGahee gets the scores. It’s been that way since week 2, really.
