Commissioner's Preseason Rankings

Despite all of the distractions at the Hotel Del Coronado (i.e., beach, sunset, margaritas), I think everyone had a really good draft. I can't wait to see how this season plays out because I think there is a lot of parity. It seems every year that one team runs away with the money list title, but I think this could be the first year where several teams are in contention until the very end.
That being said, the annual Commissioner's Preseason Rankings are below. Keep in mind that last season I predicted Joe to finish first and Jake to finish last. So what happened? Of course, Jake wins easily and Joe captures DFL.

Commissioner's 2007 Preseason Rankings:

1. Clif - The kiss of death from the Commish. Still stunned from his FFL Championship game loss, he turns in the best draft. Strong in the majors with Mickelson and Goosen, and solid through the middle rounds with Pampling, Rose and Taylor.
2. Evan - A very good top-4 if Singh continues his current form, but Campbell is always a wild card. A couple of late round selections will probably be dropped in the first month and additions could determine whether he has a good or great season.
3. Doug - Potentially very good top-3 and solid mid-round selections. Question marks include whether Furyk plays as well as last year and DiMarco returning from a disappointing 2006
4. Justin - Several questions for this team, but should be good enough to contend. Can Scott live up to #1 overall status? Howell III has been best player of 2007 so far, but will it last? How will Stenson do in first full season in the US?
5. Jason - Will be a very good team. Lacking only a true #1, but turns in great draft from top to versatile bottom. Immelman will be this year's Ogilvy and may have found sleepers in Moore, Matteson and Kim.
6. Jake - Defending champion puts together solid squad. Top-4 look good, but downgraded because of a few questionable mid-round picks. Masterful in add/drop last year and may need to be again.
7. Joe - Last year's cellar dweller looks to rebound. Ogilvy should continue to play as well as other top picks, and Allenby and Love III round out a very good top-3. I'll be surprised if Perry has anything left to contribute, and rolled the dice with several Euros.
8. Toby - Shocked to see Woods still on the board at #3, might have thrown off his draft strategy. Reached for Appleby at #2 and Green at #3, but made several good late round picks.
