Recap: In the last recap, I said that I thought I could wait until the 8th round to get my guy and I did. Finley was the #8 TE this year in points per game and seemed to develop a nice rapport with Rodgers as the season went on. His value could go way up if the Packers go on a run in the playoffs and he does well. If I wait on a TE like I did in this draft, he’s going to be a guy I target. I likely won’t pick a TE until the 6th round but most likely in the 7-10 range. Next round I’m going to target the best available player, but will need to grab a QB before the 10th.
