Little Johnny's

Coach Ritchie had a terrible draft in the recent 2009 Pittsburgh Franchise Football League
PFFL Central draft. Their Little Johnny's franchise came away with the number 10 ranked draft (out of 11) in the league based on analysis by MyFantasyLeague.com.

Little Johnny's made their best pick of the draft in round 3, selecting Aaron Rodgers with the 33rd pick of the draft, as compared to the 17th spot he should have been selected in, according to ADP rankings. "He decided to forego his senior season and enter the draft," Little Johnny's coach Ritchie said.

"I know some are thinking that he will be this year's Ryan Leaf," Little Johnny's coach Ritchie said.
