I thought the 38-year-olds vs. rookies choice was obvious in the preseason, because I expected Kizer to get few starts and Trubisky to get zero until Fox was fired (which I thought might mean zero overall, since the Bears could decide to wait until the season ended to dump him). I would have said that was one of the easier picks in the entire exercise. And I got it wrong. It’s good to laugh at my own mistakes.

Tavon Auston and Danny Amendola have both seemed to me like threats to end up averaging under five yards per catch, so it kind of made me laugh that it actually happened.

I believed in Dion Lewis. I drafted him in all fantasy leagues. I would not have been surprised if you’d told me before the season that he had 1400 yards, let alone 1100. I was actually wrong about him overall, because he did not play anywhere near as big a role as I expected, but I was close enough to get that one right.

My thought process about taking the Texans TD leader was pretty amazing. I’ll reconstruct it here:
1. The Texans will have a terrible offense.
2. That terrible offense will probably lead them to go from Savage to Watson at some point.
3. Both quarterbacks are awful,* so it won’t matter.
4. So Savage will probably still start 12-15 games.
5. And they won’t score enough to blow anyone out.
6. So Savage’s 20-22 TDs will probably be better than their biggest win.
I essentially got every single thought involved wrong. It was a pretty astonishing amount of wrong in one guess.

*I was actually so low on Watson that I thought he would have a difficult time outplaying Savage. Yep. I’m a genius.

I do my draft articles on here once a year, so that’s something. And I’ve just started following @OldTakesExposed on Twitter, it’s good for a laugh on a regular basis.
