Feedback? 10 team league.

A name on the rise, especially in PPR leagues....
Shane Vereen...I think he might be outright more talented than Ridley, he's stronger than most people give him credit for, had the best bench-press numbers at the combine in his class. Very quick and has great hands.
PPR gold-mine.

You're a bit thin at RB, not wild at all about JSTEW. Cam was already vulturing JSTEW's and DeAngelo's production, now with Tolbert in Carolina it's an absolute nightmare situation for JSTEW owners.
Did Kevin Smith get drafted? Evan Royster? If not, grab 'em (I can imagine Royster at least going undrafted in 10-teamers). If not scoop up Vereen if he's available.
I'd angle a Ben Tate owner to the Foster owner, he's not too enticing as a Flex option in 10-teamers (12-teamers, maybe, 14-teamers definitely).
Don't like Manningham, dude is just another receiver in a litany of receivers in Frisco. Don't think Smith is a proficient enough passer to make everyone in this offense a viable producer (especially not in 10-teamers).
Love the Titus Young & Andrew Luck picks. Think Luck is as good as any as far as a QB2 with borderline QB1 upside. Titus Young is a phenomenal talent and I think he's going to blow up this season as the clear #2 receiver in Detroit. He's fearless, great hands, and very quick.
I mean your core is solid, but you need to improve your RB depth.
Ced Benson, I'm not wild about, I think Alex Green will emerge as the most valuable back in GB but really only in PPR.

Yeah thanks, towards the end of the draft I didn't really know what to do.
Manningham and Benson were just there, just chose him to move things along.
Vereen, Smith, and Royster were all taken.
Good lookin out, will be in and out of this thread as the season progresses.

ah, I wouldn't worry too much about AP, dude is a physical anomaly. I mean yeah he's coming off a torn ACL, MCL and both of his meniscus(es?
). But so far he's on track for playing on week 1. If you're really worried about it send an offer over to the Gerhart owner and see if you can wrangle him over to your squad (maybe Hillis for Gerhart??)....Though I do like Hillis this season, really you have the RB depth to thrive even in the event of AP's demise. Solid RB depth but you could upgrade at WR and TE.....But not really a glaring weakness at those positions (you've got good WR depth and some solid upside guys) and Tamme might have a big year (I'm a little skeptical to be honest as I'm certain Dreessen will have his fair share of targets).
My only issue with your team is RG3, don't see him as a viable QB1 even in 12-teamers, but you might be able to platoon the position if you play-match-ups with RG3 and Locker.

if this was in regard to my bradshaw question, the guy who has him is already stacked at RB (._. )

How about dropping Mario Manningham for Steve Breaston or Jabar Gaffney?

should ryan mathews be drafted earlier than the 2nd round? i see him dropping to the end of the 2nd round sometimes and i wonder why his ADP is so high. ranked 4th in yahoo overall. also, whats everyone take on adrian peterson? will the injury hold him back from being a top 5 RB?

I personally think Matthews is overrated and injury prone. I would take him 3rd/4th but he won't last that long.

Austin Collie or jabar Gafney?

i took Vick over Peyton and Romo today. i'm nervous as hell lol

High risk, high reward. Took him last season and panicked early on and somehow traded him for Megatron.
Won the chip as well.

same with Gaffney, he's not really worth picking up unless Welker or Lloyd go down.
Steve Breaston is really not too tantalizing to me, as I really feel Bowe will give-out and show up at camp before the season starts. Also I think Jon Baldwin is going to have a phenomenal season.
Is he available? Prolly not I'm guessing....Give me some more names you're interested in that's on your wire.

Collie over Gaffney all day, he seems to be building an early rapport with Luck and will be his slot receiver. Could very well have a break-out season as Wayne is fading...
And as far as that Decker trade, you have to make it. Trent is coming back from a knee-scope and Hardesty might be taking the lions-share of the carries for the first couple of weeks. Mathews might not be back 'til week 3 (I could give a rat's *** what Mathews says about it, there's no way he's ready for contact by week 1).
I don't like BJGE, he's a guy that is basically a low-ceiling RB2, but you need RB depth badly. LeShoure is cooked as well....He's suspended for the first two weeks of the regular season and is coming back from a torn achilles tendon (pretty much never seen a RB come back from a achilles tear, it's a career killer). As of right now Kevin Smith is the guy to own in the Lions backfield.....

Those whom are already suffering from RB injuries....
Check your waiver-wire for these guys...
Kevin Smith (absolutely no reason that he goes undrafted in any league, but if for some reason he's on your wire, get him).
Evan Royster (absolutely no reason that he goes undrafted in any league, but if for some reason he's on your wire, get him).
Montario Hardesty (The Browns might take it easy on Trent when he comes back from his knee-scope, Hardesty might be in line for a start
week 1, or at least the lions-share of carries).
Rashad Jennings (Mularkey is reportedly going to 'ease" MJD back into his starting-role as he doesn't want his rust to get him hurt or have his performance suffer, Jennings will probably get the nod week 1, he's been reportedly impressive at camp).
Names to simply keep in mind at this point....
Shane Vereen (though I'd be prudent and scoop him up before he supplants Ridley which he may very well do)....
John Dwyer (If Redman's groin injury lingers on into the regular season Dwyer could see an expanded role)
Ryan Grant (could be headed to Detroit)
Jeff Demps (runs a 4.18 40, olympic silver-medalist, is being courted by multiple teams, if in the right situation could be PPR GOOOOOOOOOOLD, ladies and gentlemen, I give you the fastest man in the National Football League, and it's not even a matter of debate).

Do you think, considering my RB depth I could trade someone away for a Top QB? or should I just wait it out? I made it to the finals last year off a round 1 Drew Brees pick up, but this year I didn't want to do the QB thing.

With my first pick in my two keeper league I took Fitzgerald. AJ Green and Julio Jones were still available....think I made the right pick? Fitz's QB situation is just so iffy and both of those guys are in line for big seasons with stable quarterback play.

Jon Baldwin isnt available, but I'm also looking at James Jones, Early Doucet, and for some reason Davone Bess

Jeff Demps to the Pats.

possibly worth a very late round pick but in the Patriots offense the last guy that's gonna get the ball is the RB, running or through the air
