Draft was yesterday, 10-team league I had the #10 pick. I picked up Brady & Moss back-to-back and then after the draft was over I traded for AP without having to give up the Brady to Moss connection which I think is huge. Here's my squad..

What do you guys think?
i'd say that team is slightly above average in a 10 man league. Great QB and #1 WR and RB but not having a flex and having to start 3 WR'sis going to suck for you cause you could start Marshawn or Donald Brown in that spot when he gets back from suspension. i don't think Nate Burleson shouldbe a starter in a 10 man league, other than that i like your team, if it had a flex instead of 3rd WR i'd give it a 9/10 without 7.5. good luck!
 
^ solid running backs, could be in trouble WR wise, especially if Brandon Marshall keeps his stuff up. solid team all around, very nice.
 
Who'd you give up for AP JPZ?

Your WR corp is suspect - any other moves you can make?
 
Your WR's a rough JPZ but other than that, you've got a solid team, assuming McFadden pans out this year

And yeah... what'd you give up for AP
 
JPZ- Your team looks pretty solid. I like Brady at QB, but then again I benefited immensely from his monster year 2 seasons ago. Your RBs are straight as well.Best fantasy RB with ADP and great second options you can plug and play depending on match ups. Donald Brown and LeSean McCoy have tons potential as well. Mossat WR is a great #1, but I'm not too sold on your other receivers. They are definitely the weak point of your team.

Alan Garner- Solid team as well. Not necessarily a team I would draft, but you've got some talented players. Hopefully SJax plays well this year. Yourstarting WRs are good, Witten is a great TE and will probably be more productive this year w/ TO gone, and Donovan should put up good #s with all the offensivetalent around him. Overall pretty solid fantasy squad.

I'm trying to trade marshall for ochocinco, hopefully it gets approved, I think that chad is gonna do good this year.
 
I took marshall in the 6th round... I know it could be trouble but in the 6th there was no way i was gonna pass him up... i hope he gets traded soon.




Give me some input on the rest of my team...

Larry Fitzgerald
MJD
Steve Slaton
Carson Palmer
Tony Gonzolez
Brandon Marshall
Pierre Thomas
Baltimore D
Santonio Holmes
Derrick Ward
David Akers
Devin Hester
Matt Shaub
Donald Lee
Jerious Norwood

I like your starting RBs and I can't believe you got Calvin Johnson in the 3rd...steal. Schaub should do big things in that Texans offense this season if he stays healthy....ugh at Roethlisberger in the 4th round though.

Your starters would/should be...

QB- Matt Schaub
RB- Maurice Jones-Drew
RB- Frank Gore
WR- Calvin Johnson
WR- DeSean Jackson
WR- Torry Holt
TE- ?

Do you guys not pick TEs or something?

I wouldn't know about individual defensive players fantasy wise so I'm not going to rate that.

Overall, you've got a pretty good team.

WR: Berrian, Hester, Holt, Robert Meachem, Sidney Rice, Crabtree, Josh morgan
TE: Tony Gonzalez
DEF: Steelers, Ravens
K: Elam

I orginally had the 11th pick but traded my 1st and 2nd round for the 4th overall and 4th pick of the 3rd round. Kinda backfired on me because I did that with the intention of being able to take either Steve Smith or Boldin with that rounder and neither one of them was there (I took Portis in that spot). So im thin at WR. Im hoping I dont regret taking Jackson over Forte (Forte went 9th and LT 10th)
Don't you work with the Falcons?
No wonder you got Matt Ryan, Michael Vick, Tony Gonzalez, and Jason Elam
laugh.gif


Anyway, I like your RBs but your WRs are
sick.gif
...Berrian is a good #2 in my opinion but as a #1? No.

If you stuck with that team you'd finish in the bottom half of the league, sorry.

im not a big fan of TE but we have a TE/WR flex spot. Lance Moore will take my flex spot for my team. i think i did ok in the draft

I'm trying to make a move to get another WR. How do you guys think Lynch will do this season? I'm thinking of trading him while his value is high (eventhough he's suspended) because I've been hearing that Fred Jackson will be taking over his starting role even when he returns from the suspension.I'm not sure if that's true but that's what I'm hearing. Anybody know anything more than that?

Anyway, what kind of receiver do you guys think I could get back for a package of Marshawn Lynch and Nate Burleson OR Marshawn Lynch and Antonio Bryant?
 
What are your guys' expectations of Marshawn Lynch this season?
 
How'd I do? Ten teams, standard scoring, picked 7th... QB/RB/RB/WR/WR/Flex/TE/K/DEF

Matt Schaub, Carson Palmer
DeAngelo Williams, Darren McFadden, Donald Brown, LeSean McCoy
Andre Johnson, Anquan Boldin, DeSean Jackson, Percy Harvin, Josh Morgan
Tony Gonzalez, Visanthe Shiancoe
Ryan Longwell
Giants DEF/ST

Feel like I need another RB, but I like Donald Brown a lot... A couple of of my buddies literally drafted RBs with their first 4 picks...
smh.gif
 
Just had my 1st draft of the year. 2 more to go. Let me know how I did. 7th pick, no trades, IDP, NO PPR

You have a good team man...the upside on McFadden, Brown and McCoy this season is amazing and as the saying goes..."there's quality innumbers". You know that one of those guys will burst onto the scene and have a breakout season.

I love the Schaub-to-Johnson connection you have and Boldin and Desean are good #2 and #3 receivers. You know Gonzo will have a stellar season no matter whatand also, Shiancoe has a ton of upside this year because of Favre's favoritsm towards his TEs (Bubba Franks, etc.)
bijald0331
That's a really weird format....but whatever.

I'm not sure how I feel about you having Fitzgerald AND Boldin on the same team. At all times one of them will be taking away from the othersproduction....there's only so many balls to go around in one, single game.

QBs good, you need a little help at RB though. It sounds like Fargas might be beginning the year as a starter and although I think McFadden will take over aquarter of the season in, it's probably not smart to start him right now (even though I'm in the same position in one of my leagues).

Why do you have 3 QBs though?
Kobe4MVP12
You've got a pretty great team....can't believe no one took Fitzgerald until #15 in your league.

Tomlinson and Portis is a nice 1-2 punch at RB and if you have Vincent Jackson as a third receiver you know your squad is in good shape at WR. I also see youhave the handcuff of LT/Sproles...that'll come into use I think as the season wears on. I like Olsen as your TE also...

Your team doesn't have very many weak points, good job.
 
took 3 qb's as an asset. Big Ben or Matt Cassel could be great trade bait. Probably will start Benson to start with.
 
would like some thoughts on my team. Its a 12 team league, and I had the 10th pick

Format is:

QB
WR
WR
WR
RB
RB
TE
WR/TE
WR/RB
K
DEF


QB: Matt Ryan, Jason Campbell
WR: TJ Houz, Anthony Gonzalez, Devin Hester, Jeremy Maclin, Josh Morgan
RB: Steve Slaton, Chris Johnson, Derrick Ward, Shon Greene, Jamaal Charles, Tim Hightower
TE: Jason Witten
K: Nick Folk
Def: NYJ
 
You guys think its bad to own alot of players from the same team?

Like Shaub, Dre, Slaton

Evans,TO, Lynch
 
^ Unless you have a QB-WR or a RB-RB combo on your team, then yeah it's a bad thing.

For example, starting both Houshmandzadeh and Burleson you'd be in a tough spot because they'd take away from each other's production.
 
Drafted last night, w/ the 4th pick. Yahoo, standard scoring. I think I'll have to upgrade my WR's. How do guys think I'll do?

QB Matt Ryan
WR Greg Jennings
WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh
WR Kevin Walter
RB Matt Forte
RB Brandon Jacobs
TE Owen Daniels
W/R Kevin Smith
BN Jamal Lewis
BN Lance Moore
BN Devin Hester
BN Percy Harvin
BN Brett Favre
BN Mark Clayton
BN T.J. Duckett
BN Isaac Bruce

K Josh Brown
DEF Minnesota

Bench is good. Not spectacular, but good... very solid team my dude.





Ok... my team
smh.gif
- 14 teams (I had 13th pick

), PPR, large IDP.

Mind you, I overslept and missed the first 9 rounds.

^ it looks like your defense is stronger than your offense, all depending on your scoring system.

i would try to see if you can get a serviceable 3rd wideout or make a trade for a 2nd tier rb
