We had our annual ADFL draft party last weekend (I'm still recovering) :drunk: 14 teams, I had the 13th pick.... how bad did I choke... looks better than most as there's no superstar team amongst the 14 starters: QB: Hasslebeck RB: L. Johnson RB: T. Jones WR: R. Moss WR: R. Williams WR: Anthony Gonzales TE: Ben Watson Defense: COLTS K: Ryan Longwell Bench: QB: Tarvaris Jackson :rofl::drunk:ricky williams RB: Deangelo Williams RB: Leon Washington RB: Jammal Charles WR: Vincent jackson WR: Derrick Mason WR: Justin Gage WR: Dennis Northcutt TE: Donald Lee

StinkyB -- I see your team as high risk, high reward. Hasselbeck, Johnson and Jones all have great potential (based on years past). But Seattle's offense is not as great as the past (Branch/Engram hurt, running game less potent, DJ let go). And, Johnson and Jones both have potential to be high producing backs, depending on QB play and, more importantly, OLine play. You may find yourself starting D. Williams sooner than expected. Consider picking up E. Royal -- sleeper pick with high potential. Fits the theme of your team.
With the exception of Leon, I don't like anyone on your bench. But, for a 14-team league, your starters are money. Very solid.
Thanks. Kind of what I was thinking. It usually works well for me. I agree with the QBs, but everyone in our league takes QB's so early (Hasselbeck was the 12QB off the board.). The backs were my tough ones...... especially Johnson. At # 13 I thought it was a "safe pick" considering 11 Rbs were already chosen. I'm hoping the Seattle running game sucks and they have to throw alot. No body has a deep bench in our league. In regards to Deangelo, I'm trying to grab J. Stewart off my friend, we'll see. I grabbed Chaarles in the 18th rd as a handcuff for LJ. Should I dump him for either Pierre Thomas or Fred Jackson? (If LJ can't run behind that line, I doubt anyone else can) JETSFANDC it'll be easier to judge if you put them in position / starting order.

DeAngelo Williams is good enough to keep Pierre Thomas or Fred Jackson on your bench. I would hang onto Charles as a handcuff if LJ was my # 1 player.
I was thinking of picking up Jackson because the guy with Jonathan Stewart on his bench has Marshawn Lynch... trade bait? JETSFANDC that 2nd team is sick. 1st one... eh
(1) I would not trade Stewart for Jackson. Stewart may get significant playing time. And, he has potential to run for big yards. Don't drop anyone with potential value for the possibility of picking up/trading Jackson. (2) Thanks for the comments. Glad team two looks good to you. How can I improve team one? My concern is the WR/RB spot (Watson) and my bench. I think Cotchery is going to have a big year, considering Favre's potential and his chemistry (so far) with Cotchery. Galloway/Driver should be good for 1000+ seasons, and a few TDs. Winslow is like having another WR out there (as opposed to the 1/2 WR that most TEs provide, statistically speaking). And, I hope this is Jacobs' year to break out big time.
No, I meant grabbing Jackson to package him with one of my WR's to trade to the guy who has Marshaawn Lynch as his top back and Stewart on his bench His WRs are weak, so I was thinking I could package one of my WRs & Jackson (to backup Lynch) for Stewart. I know it's longshot. Your 1st team isn't bad, just not as good as the 2nd one. I'm skeptical about old guys (Galloway) I always have the feeling they're going to break down. The soldier is money though..... he's my #2 TE this year (behind Witten) I think a stronger backup running may be neccesary, I don't trust the Denver depth chart, and Jacobs has a good chance of getting hurt. Making a move for Ward or Bradsahaw (if he's not getting suspended) could be a good move.
