10 Rules Everyone must know for Drafting (if you want to win):

1. Research, Research, Research

2. You are no longer a fan of any team.  Live in the Raider Nation...move.  Still think Dallas is America's Team...for the next 6 months your from Canada, eh?  Think Detroit is awesome...seek professional help.  Think with your head and not your heart.

3. Stud running back first, unless you draft very late and a Randy Moss or Terrell Owens is still sitting there.  If you don't take a good back, what will be left when it comes back to you?  I was in a mock draft where the 10th overall took Marvin Harrison and then Torry Holt on the way back.  By the third round, Duce Staley was all that was left as his #1 back.  Don't let this happen to you.  The only exception is if your choice is the 24th running back or the #2 wide receiver.

4. Don't agree to draft at a strip club or restaurant like Hooters.  You'll be too distracted.

5. Bring your wife or a friend if possible.  They can help take notes.

6. Know everything.  If someone gets drafted and you don't know who they are, you weren't prepared.

7. Don't give anything away.  If someone wants to talk to you about the draft, listen, but don't speak.

8. Pay attention to items such as bye weeks and how many you need at each position.  Little things could make a difference.

9. DO NOT DRINK.  I know a lot of you have a good time when you draft and it turns into a big party, but by the last rounds, you'll be drafting Randall Cunningham or worse - Steve Blake(?).  Keep your mind clear, unless it's all just for fun. 

10.  No sex for 3 days before the draft.  Keep your mind focused and stay hungry.  Just kidding, go crazy.  Just try to abstain during the draft.
