Almost three weeks ago I shared the results of my first mock auction for the 2012 season. Since then, we compared the results from the second mock auction at QB, RB, RE and TE. Today we wrap the series up with a look at player value variances at PK and TDSP.
As a reminder, this is a 10 team auction, with each team given $200 to draft a 14-man roster that includes 2 QB, 3 RB, 3 RE, 1 TE, 1 FLEX (RB, WR or TE), 1 PK, 1 TDSP and 2 RES.
PK | MOCK 1 | MOCK 2 | CHANGE |
1 | 2 | 1 | |
1 | 1 | 0 | |
1 | 1 | 0 | |

The only real surprise here is that someone bid more than $1 on any kicker. There were two new faces -- Nate Kaeding ($1) and Matt Prater ($1) – and I suspect that if we were to conduct ten more auctions, the list of name drafted would be different every time. Replaced from the first draft were Rob Bironas ($1) and Randy Bullock ($1).
TDSP | MOCK 1 | MOCK 2 | CHANGE |
San Francisco | 1 | 3 | 2 |
New York (N) | 2 | 2 | 0 |
Philadelphia | 1 | 1 | 0 |
New York (A) | 1 | 1 | 0 |
New England | 2 | 1 | -1 |
Green Bay | 4 | 1 | -3 |
Seattle | 3 | - | n/a |
Pittsburgh | - | 3 | n/a |
Baltimore | - | 3 | n/a |
Detroit | 1 | - | n/a |
Denver | 1 | - | n/a |
Chicago | 1 | - | n/a |
Houston | - | 1 | n/a |
Dallas | - | 1 | n/a |
Four new TDSP were selected this time around, which is not a shock. What is was that two of them -- Pittsburgh ($3) and Baltimore ($3) – went undrafted the first time around. The other newcomers were Houston ($1) and Dallas ($1), replacing Seattle ($3), Denver ($1), Detroit ($1) and Chicago ($1).
Having run down the draft results at all positions I'm going to wait until early August, when pre-season games begin, before conducting the next mock auction draft to see how player values change.
Until then, please share your thoughts on these drafts, player values, or anything else that is on your mind heading in to the 2012 fantasy football season.
