    Palmer is good. Your Rbs are awful. I like your WRs. Heap is a good choice and Nugent is too. I would get rid of the Raiders Defense. I can't say something about your Defense players.

    10 team league, 9th pick.

    Start 1QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1TE, 1W/T, 1W/R, 1D/ST, 1K

    QB: Alex Smith, Matt Schaub
    RB: Brian Westbrook, Reggie Bush, Brandon Jacobs, Adrian Peterson (MIN), Leon Washington, Brian Leonard
    WR: Terrell Owens, Anquan Boldin, Mark Clayton, Calvin Johnson, Jerricho Cotchery, Santonio Holmes
    TE: Vernon Davis
    D/ST: Chargers
    K Shayne Graham


    I really messed up on QB. I'm going to see if I can pull a trade with someone for a batter one. I generally try to avoid drafting Jets but Cotchery and Washington were probably the best options left when I picked them.

    How many friggin RBs do you need? Better start shopping them around for a new QB.

    Jesus, man! Go out and find yourself some running backs!

    Was this like a 16 team league and you got stuck towards the end of the draft?

    Looks like he went heavy on the defensive players. Still, I like Brandon Jackson a lot. But he is weak on the RBs - no question.

    My 1st draft this year...

    10 team league with these positions: QB, WR, WR, WR, RB, RB, RB/WR, TE, K, DEF, D (any defensive player), DB, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN

    Starters:
    QB: Tony Romo
    WR: Andre Johnson
    WR: Javon Walker
    WR: Bernard Berrian
    RB: Reggie Bush
    RB: Travis Henry
    RB/WR: Ahman Green
    TE: Tony Gonzalez
    K: Shayne Graham
    DEF: San Diego
    D: Antonio Pierce (LB from NYG...ranked highly...any thoughts?)
    DB: Kerry Rhodes (Homer pick...any thoughts?)
    BN: Leon Washington (Another homer pick...but a good one!)
    BN: Sammy Morris (hated to do this)
    BN: Deion Branch
    BN: Amani Toomer
    BN: Jeff Garcia (Sorta my good luck charm from past leagues)

    If everyone plays to their potential I feel really good about my team. Only ? for me are Gonazalez and Romo.

    Opinions?

    was a twelve team league and I just waited until the last minute to get RBs since all the RBs I wanted were taken early and i had the 10th pick in round 1

    This is my money league team... we start QB, RB RB, WR WR, W/R, TE, D, K

    1st round (6) Larry Johnson
    2nd round (15) Peyton Manning
    3rd round (26) Roy Williams
    4th round (35) Marques Colston
    5th round (46) Jamal Lewis
    6th round (55) Chicago D
    7th round (66) Vernon Davis
    8th round (75) DeAngelo Williams
    9th round (86) Eli Manning
    10th round (95) Kevin Curtis
    11th round (106) Ben Watson
    12th round (115) Robbie Gould
    13th round (126) Neil Rackers
    14th round (135) Mushin Muhamed
    15th round (146) Brian Leonard

    Starters
    QB Peyton Manning
    RB Larry Johnson
    RB Jamal Lewis
    WR Roy Williams
    WR Marques Colston
    TE Vernon Davis
    W/R Mushin Muhamed
    K Robbie Gould
    D Chicago

    I think I might be weak at W/R and if Vernon Davis doesn't live up to the hype I'll also be weak at TE. Before you ask I have no idea how the best QB in the NFL fell to the 15th pick. I didn't think LJ would fall to me either but the person with the 5th pick has a hard on for Willie Parker so he went 5th. I'm aso not crazy about a Browns RB when Charlie Frye is the starting QB

    You absolutely stole Peyton. Stole him. LJ and Peyton is about as good a first two picks as you can possibly have.

    That being said, I am not very high on Jamal Lewis or DeAnge. I think you might have problems at RB2 down the line. Otherwise, your team in excellent.

    I have no idea how all this defensive player stuff works with fantasy cuz I've never done it. I like everyone you took on your team offensively. I'm not crazy about Norwood but you took him at the right time. And having Gates is always a huge boost. Very solid team.

    Ok let me throw my two teams out there....

    Team #1 (14 Team League)

    This is an auction draft league (the best way to go in my opinion). The only downside is that you can keep 7 guys. Not alot of RBs available unless guys dump them for cap room or the contract runs out(you can extend players one time only, with the number of years increasing the cost of the player for each year added). This year I was able to get both James and McGahee after struggling with LaMont Jordan last year.


    QB Marc Bulger
    RB Edgerrin James
    RB Willis McGahee
    WR Reggie Wayne
    WR Donald Driver
    WR Jerricho Cotchery (was excited to get him as my #3, he could be a solid #2)
    TE Jason Witten
    K Nuge
    DL Ty Warren
    DL Chris Kelsay
    LB Antonio Pierce
    LB DJ Williams
    LB Channing Crowder
    SS Deon Grant
    SS Darren Sharper

    Backups:
    QB Matt Leinart
    QB Kellen Clemens
    RB Leon Washington
    RB Michael Turner
    RB Selvin Young
    RB Sammy Morris
    WR Brandon Jones
    WR Matt Jones
    LB Derrick Johnson
    DB Antoine Bethea


    Team #2 (snake draft, 14 teams drafting, 3 keepers per team)

    QB Philip Rivers
    RB Ronnie Brown
    RB LaMont Jordan
    WR Torry Holt
    WR Roy Williams
    WR Donald Driver
    TE David Martin (sucks, i know)
    K Adam Viniatieri
    DEF/ST Jets

    Backups
    QB Jason Campbell
    QB Daunte Culpepper
    RB Brandon Jackson
    RB Leon Washington
    RB Maurice Morris
    WR Anthony Gonzalez
    WR Chris Henry
    WR Brandon Jones
    WR Robert Meachem
    DEF/ST Saints

    As always, I have no idea how fantasy works for defensive players but that's a pretty loaded team. My only criticism is that you don't really have any good back-up RBs.

    Just wanted to say I picked up Adrian Peterson in all 3 leagues I'm in, and some people thought I reached for him with a 3rd. Who's reaching now, mofos? :lol:

    Further update on this team (Note: It's 10 teams and I had originally drafted LT and traded him, Eli, and Kenninson for Brady, Holt and Portis), I won my first week lopsidedly and scored the most points in the league, and then I dropped Ladell Betts (who I had picked up when I dropped Philly D) for Brandon Jacobs. Imagine this team come fantasy playoff time:

    QB Tom Brady
    HB Brandon Jacobs
    HB Clinton Portis
    WR Chad Johnson
    WR Torry Holt
    WR Hines Ward
    TE Antonio Gates
    DEF Baltimore
    K Robbie Gould

    And thats with Maurice Jones-Drew, DeAngelo Williams (who should have the starters job by then), Tony Romo, Edwards and Cotch off the bench! I love it.
