Sidney Rice

(Sea - WR)
[/td][/tr][/table]
I personally think you don't have one strong position other then QB with Cam, RB is a huge concern. I think Mile Austin if healthy will be productive but your team is meh. I give you 4.5/10. Also where is your Defense and Kicker??? I think you reached alot during this draft. The only value pick you got was Cam Newton and Fitzgerald pick might be debatable. I'm sure you passed up a forte/murray/charles/ graham in the 2nd round.
 
SneakerHeathen: Shanny is a fantasy manager's nightmare. So fickle with RBs. Changes them like a normal person switches underwear, daily. Felt like it was Helu's job to lose before the tendinitis in both Achilles' tendons.

MrSwagtastic: Hope this reaches you in time. Easy decision with a two-QB league. Definitely Brees if he's there. Could even reach for Stafford. Wait for Cam later, early second-round.

Nevermind, saw your updated post. Brady is a steal at #7. Try to get a true RB1. Possibly by packaging "Law Firm" and DeSean. I don't feel like Dalton and Olsen are worth roster spots. Personally prefer to stack on RBs and WRs as injuries accrue.

SonOfTony: Trusting Locker could be CruThik3's biggest mistake and weakness. It's a huge gamble for an otherwise strong, potentially championship material squad.

Assuming you're Team 1. Too early for Nelson for my taste, even though you have Rodgers. Bit too early for Ced, Pettigrew, and Redman. Great value for Dez, don't know how he slipped to ninth. Also like Britt. and Spiller late.

651akathePaul: DeMarco Murray owners definitely need to handcuff with Felix Jones. He's a worthy bench option.

stickmandude: In hindsight, yes, you probably should have taken Eli based on security and Nicks/Cruz. But Vick offers more potential and a higher ceiling because of running ability. Just hope he stays healthy for all 16. Sproles over Charles isn't so bad in a PPR format, but I would have taken Charles. He's claiming a major bounce back year from injury, but who knows. If he gets hurt again (knock on wood), you're more than happy with Sproles racking up the short receptions. Only nitpick is to solidify your RB3 for bye week and insurance/security purposes.

SneakerPro: Not necessarily. Charles is a far better runner that gets significantly more carries. He's also in the 40-50 receptions for the season range. Not bad.

Don't know how you got Sproles fifth-round in a PPR league, but props. Washington great value late. Floyd too early. I'd drop Henderson for a K.

THockey66: You said it, bud. Excellent receivers. Possibly move Colston for a RB2-type. Beanie gets no receptions in a PPR format. Turner is expected to fade a bit this season.

Big Van Vader: Upgrade your RB2. Spiller is a true RB3. Agree with Forte and Welker over CJ2K in PPR leagues. Would have went Stafford and Roddy, not Bowe. Although Julio may have the better year, too much value at that point (third-round) to pass on White.

TennHouse2: Scoring settings? Only three names to consider: Rodgers, Foster, Rice. 6-point passing TDs? Definitely Rodgers.

LESGodSon: Two questions, is it PPR and how much are passing TDs worth? If 6-points for passing TDs, definitely Brees. If not, Foster. You didn't mention Rice. Not considering Ray? Foster, Rice, Shady, Megatron (in that order). If you miss on a top-tier QB early, target Eli, Romo, Vick, Rivers, and Peyton in the middle rounds.

Raider5: You should be good money once Matthews comes back and if Miles' hammy holds up over the course of a long season. Would have dropped Little or Burleson for Cook, and kept Rice.

jdcurt2: You should be top-2 in your league. You're fine at TE. Witten is tough as nails and usually ranked fifth or six at his position after Gronk, Graham, and Gates. Finley and Hernandez in the conversation.

Nowitness41Dirk: Like your squad, man. Only thing is maybe Hank isn't worth the roster spot unless you think he's a sleeper pick.

TimelessFlight: No, Quizz will get more reps and touches behind Burner Turner this year especially in third-down situations. Hold onto him.

TripleDDD: Good squad. I'd start McGahee over Meach in the second flex spot. Could take Rivers time to get accommodated to his new weapon (receiver).

desent: You really need to upgrade your RBs. Start Law Firm over Michael Bush. Reggie probably won't match last year's production. Try trading Dre Johnson for an elite RB1. See if you can wrangle away MJD for Dre.

Bones36: Nice team. No complaints here. Consider Vereen for Ridey, but track them both first in opening weeks.

Elpablo21: I wouldn't hold two Ks or two DEFs. Two spots that could be had for RB and WR depth. I prefer Bailey to Prater and obviously B-More to Cincy.

ImNacho: Try to upgrade RB2. Could use Tate as trade bait for Foster owner. Mini-upgrade at WR4 for depth.

fraij: Well done, just hope Dre holds up for you. We know he won't be getting double-digit TDs.

flip5stacks: Start Martin over Ridley.

FlyerThanDelta: I don't see those two options becoming a Laurent Robinson-type fantasy surprise producer even if Miles and Dez go down. I'd rather take a look at someone like Randall Cobb or Amendola. Ogletree is probably a better option than Harris.

parada45: Definitely Foster over Brady with those scoring settings. Manger with first pick going Ray or Rodgers?

senor chang: Definitely Seattle. Underrated D. Get a good pass-rush. Crazy home crowd, twelfth man.
 
Smokey: Only weakness is RB1. Bush is okay as a RB2 I suppose. Offer up Roddy for an elite RB1. You should have numerous potential suitors in an active league.

That's exactly what I was thinkin, good to see someone else thinks so. Good lookin out man.

4 year league that has been going on. Need 3 more people, it's always been competitive for the whole season.
new to fantasy football.

can i join? and how do i join
 
:smokin
Would you do a Hillis for Tate? Anyone?
The owner of Foster has him, DeAngelo and David Wilson.
It's close but I actually prefer Tate to Hillis. Tate got a good workload in preseason and should spell Foster quite a bit to keep Arian fresh for late in the season and playoffs. We don't know what Peyton Hillis to expect. He basically quit on Cleveland after a franchise year. A healthy Charles may keep Hillis on the bench. Wouldn't take DeAngelo or Wilson for Tate either.

I'd roll with the Bengals too...
Seattle plays STL twice, Arizona twice without a QB, and a SF squad that is known for limited offense and kicking FGs.

B-More is going to a more aggressive, hurry-up and attack offense under Cam. Steelers should air it out under Haley to Wallace, Brown, and Sanders. Cleveland is the one weak spot, could still pound Richardson for 25-30 carries per game.
 
Elpablo21: I wouldn't hold two Ks or two DEFs. Two spots that could be had for RB and WR depth. I prefer Bailey to Prater and obviously B-More to Cincy.
 
I'm gonna have to see who's available. Dont even know who I would add

Let me know who's available at RB and WR. Do my best to help you out.

Still appreciate the two avys from last week, my man.
No problem bro.

Here are the notable names I see available

WR:

R.Moss

Holmes

Crabby

Deion Branch

Breaston

RB:

Tolbert

Pierre Thomas

James Starks

Mendenhall

Brandon Jacobs

W/R:

Ginn

McCluster

Leon Washington

Jacoby Jones
 
Santonio Holmes? I'd pick him up and Pierre Thomas. Although Thomas splits with Ingram and Sproles, he was fairly productive as a RB2/RB3 last year. Yes, the Jets are basura but Santonio is the only one worth throwing to with Keller's bad hammy and Hill's rookie growing pains.

Yep Santonio.

Props on the advice
 
16 team league :x, Turbin and Morris already scooped up. Trying to get McCluster since he's still available, listed as RB even though he's basically playing slot.
 
I will be pissed is McCluster breaks out. I was riding that hope wave for years and finally gave up

10 team ppr with 6 points for pass td, 1 point for every 20 rec yards.. NO FLEX, MAX 2 QB, 4 RB/WR, 2 TE, 2 K, 2 DEF.. ANY THOUGHTS?

RB: A. PETERSON MIN

RB: F. JACKSON BUF

WR: A. GREEN CIN

WR: COLSTON NO

-with the two defenses im hoping to mix and match them against rams, cards, jets, dolphins.. u get the idea.. also im willing to listen to any criticism about my toughest decisions. I had a tough time picking between f. jackson and j. charles.. I went jackson obv.. also picked ap over every rb besides the top 3 and forte, cj2k, dmac.. I knew there would be tough picks and def some I may regret later but I gave myself an A-.  I'm very satisfied with my team.
