I know your dad's gonna tell you otherwise, Nateman, but that was (significantly, if not way) too early to be picking a defense. The fact that last year the team that won had the best defense and teams kind of finished roughly in an order that coincided (read, "coincidence") with how they ended up ranking just shows that teams were picked fairly consistently up-and-down. PrimeTime, last year's Champ, augmented a great offense with a solid defense. That = championship. Just look to one year prior. The team that won it all, DirkDiggler, had a run-of-the-mill good defense.
But, anyway, Nate, the Bears should be good. Coming from the guy who's been participating in this, either as a drafter or running it, for about 10 years now (before it was even a league back with FFToday), it's not a really bad pick, but it's also not a particularly good pick at this point in the draft. Last year, when Primer picked the Bears it was a much better pick... simply because he got them later. You're gonna have to pray for some bad picks to be made so as to sew up a hole you're going to have on offense because of this early pick of a defense.
In any event, it's great seeing the wheels turning.  At least, you've got a strategy and are employing it. That's how you learn the nuances and come to distinguish them from the generalities; learn from your mistakes (as the cliche goes) and improve. Just don't be rigid (ever in life). THEN, you will improve!  ... 
...
Oh, and, by the way, the "Cheatsheets" in the initial post of the thread have been updated through the latest pick!

Okay,... kiddo. I try to throw some words of wisdom out there... coming from almost a DECADE of experience running this show, who, in fact, CREATED the rules for the league, and (NOTE, this is fun hyperbole) some modern-day whiz kid, who's just shown up on the scene, has run a spreadsheet program and proven Laozi and the Daoist sensibility, so to speak, wrong. Quite contrary to being "hard to argue with", mere facts, strung together, (like a "good team on paper that plays poorly) paint a very mysterious and misleading picture. It's the processing of facts and information into "truth" and "understanding".  Facts are like the walls of a maze, usually you have to acknowledge and "obey" them; sometimes you can climb over them, see through them or break them down (in both senses). The path you take (and how you deal with the different kinds of walls of the maze) is your truth and indicates your level of understanding. One thing, true understanding/understanding of the truth, which comes only after great cultivation, will tell you that this is a maze, however, with no exit. So, it becomes "how" you navigate the maze. The path is the way, the Dao. The walls are the obstacles. The so-called facts are what we overcome. ... Facts that seem undeniable at one level of understanding are realized to be spurious at another and not even seen on yet another. As long as you are open to that, you're okay. Don't be rigid. Don't ever think you've figured it out. In life, with everything, we're all just taking steps. Behave without hubris, acknowledge those who have taken more steps than you, and you'll be good to go... on YOUR way.
Offhand,... "snap back to (this) reality",...  ...  just to "entertain" the notion, and not be an ignoramus myself (something that is not easy for me to do; that's why I think I am fairly good at doing it),  ... did you happen to notice/calculate that TOP offenses ALSO coincide with the teams that finish at the top of the standings???

Well,... voila,... right after my pick came a "bad" pick... or, at least, one that plays right into your hands. It will push a good offensive player toward you, and, if you've calculated correctly, other ensuing picks here on the near horizon will play into both of your hands.
But,... and I think you realize this as you said as much yourself in your own post,... really, the fact that your "guarantee" has already panned out and may continue to do so is much more a function of a hyper-awareness that now exists because of last year's heated discussions, discussions that you have observed, let's say, "closely" (in both possible senses), than anything else.
In any event, to press your position, (and you can take this question rhetorically) did you consider/calculate the order in which defenses were picked vis-a-vis how they actually ended up ranking vis-a-vis how those CBFL teams finished?
ALL of that having been said and asked, I too have to acknowledge this, albeit, I believe, erroneous, hyper-awareness of the impact of D/ST and "substantively" respond to it and not just be in denial. I mean... I can refute the over-importance being attributed to defense right now, but I cannot deny the over-importance being attributed to defense right now. It too, in "fact", is part of the "reality" in which we have to deal. I digress... Like tends to be the case in the world, I think it gets us away from the truth of the matter, but reality is reality. Reality is (when and) where we are. It's what's here and now, and it can't be dismissed. You can't work "without" reality. You have to work "within" it. Truth and understanding are only attained within and through reality, albeit almost always notwithstanding reality. That meta-reality is what's needing to be overcome. IN ANY CASE, you, Nateman, I will say, on your part, have done your due diligence and adjusted to this reality. I question whether you have over-adjusted (and I think that is fair to do), but that still leaves unanswered the question of how (successfully) I will adjust to this reality...  Perhaps, in the end, not as good as you...

It looks like you've adjusted to this new reality, Jim.  BUT, no so much that you took a third D/ST here early on.

Let me say that I hated taking T.O. because I do not want to have any rooting interest in him. I wanted Holt or Wayne. I felt that I had no choice, dammit.

Yeah, maybe I more than like him .
I'm just saying that in my opinion he was by far the best available non-RB and that as a Redskins fan and TO hata' it pained me to take him.  .
