Draft Day: Who Will Go #1, Warner or Manning?

The TBFFL draft is only hours away, yet it appears to still be up in the air who will be taken with the number one pick.  Rob Holecko, owner of the Atlanta Flying Fleet, is apparently still undecided who to take, although it appears he will definitely take a quarterback.

"I am about 90% sure I'll be taking a quarterback.  Whether it's Manning or Warner, now I don't know.  Right this minute, I'm leaning toward Kurt Warner, just because I think that if he does his best, he'll have far and away the highest stats this year.  However, Manning probably has a lessor downside, that is Warner is probably more of a risk.  Of course injuries can hit anybody, and I think we saw that last year."

Last year, with the sixth pick, Rob took Ricky Williams, the rookie Saints running back.  While Williams did play for some of the year, it was still a gamble that didn't pay off.  "Yes, he was pretty much a bust.  But he did get some yards and points, unlike some of the higher picks, Terrell Davis (who went #1 to Detroit) and Jamaal Anderson (#5 Colorado) both went higher and were out for the year.  I can assure you I won't be taking Ron Dayne with the first pick," Rob said with a laugh.
