I knew because of my positioning in the draft that I could play catch up, or lead the charge. I led the charge, so starters are good, but depth is weak.

My RB core is the roughest, but i've got some risk/potential type guys in Spiller and McCluster at the flex, and maybe some goal line touches in Jones (also, god forbid Charles go down).

It's okay I guess

QB Peyton Manning 7
QB Carson Palmer 6

Peyton probably won't put up as many points as he did a season ago, but he's still a good addition. Carson Palmer is decent enough to be a good starter while Manning is on the bye.

RB Joseph Addai 7
RB CJ Spiller 6
RB Thomas Jones 4
RB Lawrence Maroney 5
RB Brian Westbrook 9

The problem I see with this group is that there is not a clear cut starter within. Spiller will get plenty of touches early on in Buffalo, but unless he plays out of his ****ing mind he will get much less when Fred Jackson is back from injury and beastmode is done with his suspension. Unless Addai plays much better in 2010, he's in danger of losing his starting role to goddamnit Donald. Hope Spiller racks up a ton of points Week 1 and put him on the trading block.

WR Randy Moss 5
WR Desean Jackson 8
WR Dexter McCluster 4
WR Kenny Britt 9
WR Eddie Royal 9

Trade Randy Moss. He's going to frustrate you to no end.

TE Victor Shiancoe 4
TE John Carlson 5

Victor Shiancoe? Sounds porno.

K Nate Kaeding 10

Lucky for you, this league ends before the post-season. Right?

D Jets 7
D Saints 10

Taking the Jets is rather risky. Calvin Pace is out for awhile and it remains to be seen how the Jets will do with returns without Washington.

Not good enough to have its own thread

NO ONE GIVES A SHIT.

That's how good.

upi

haha no kidding. Why do you guys even care. People get pissed in my league cuz I just pick a bunch of guys who suck. Here is my team in one of my leagues

QB - Drew Brees
WR - Randy Moss
WR - Dwayne Bowe
WR - Terrell Owens
RB - Shonn Green
RB - Jamaal Charles
TE - Dallas Clark
W/R/T - Tony Moeaki
K - Nate Kaeding
DEF - KC Chiefs

I am going to take an ass pounding.

Hey babe's. Feel free to ignore the thread if you no likey. That's why i threw the fantasy subject line on it. Sorry to take up precious front page space; I hope it doesn't mean any of you have to click on (gasp!) page 2....

Now, I'm off to go dream about AIDS horses that drink flaming antifreeze shots.

Thanks for sharing. I appreciate the feedback.

I drafted Manning at the 11 spot, and he was the 4th qb taken. I basically got the last of the first tier (Brees, Rodgers, Brady gone).

I knew my RB depth was gonna hurt when I ignored it in the first two rounds. Had to do it though. Addai was a pick that allows me to score double points on passing plays and check downs. I also like Spiller to have a good season, and challenge for the OROY award with McCluster. I knew he had some risk, but I thought the upside presented itself as reason enough.

I went with Moss bc AJ was gone already, and Brady and he are both on contract years. Moss kills it during contract years because he actually tries. We will see how many touches Welker steals as he recovers. I really wanted Dex in the 8th, and snagged him. I will play my flex, and hopefully give me return points if Arenas and he split duties.

I got him as the 8th TE to get gotten. With Minnesota's WR injuries, I thought he was solid value.

Thank God yes. I triple checked before this pick.

I still think they will be gross, especially once Revis shows up.

Well, Brees and Moss should do good for you.

For a 10 man ppr league, it looks weak. Could be wrong, because peyton getting 6 per td can save you. I wouldn't be happy though.

My team in a 12 man league


Palmer, Carson QB
Johnson, Chris RB
Williams, DeAngelo RB
Crabtree, Michael WR
Wayne, Reggie WR
Gonzalez, Tony TE
Crosby, Mason K GB
Packers DST @PHI

Reserves
Roethlisberger, Ben QB
Jacobs, Brandon RB
Houshmandzadeh, T.J. WR
Jackson, Vincent WR SD

Ben and Vincent are my wildcards. I think I got a good shot.

See, this is one of those really ridiculous FF posts. CJ goes 1 overall, then Deangelo should go at 10 and Wayne somewhere around 15. In a 12 man league, the fact that you landed all 3 does say you have a good shot. All of your other owners are fools and idiots, hope you have money invested, you should clean up.

I drew 1st pick overall and took CJ. This year there were a lot of picks for QBs in the first round. I was surprised Deangelo dropped that far but based upon last years numbers and the fact that he is healthy now and not sharing the backfield you can see how that might happen. I got Wade because it was one to twelve and then reversed so I got douple picks. i was also happy with the Crabtree pic as he only played limited games last year and became their go to WR. They also picked up what should finally be a decent O line if SF and the softness of their schedule playing in the NFC west. Rothisberger I got late and Vincent Jackson I got after he was dropped which I thought was a little premature. Yea I'm pretty stoked about my chances and yes I am invested.

Moss may be on a contract year, but I think he will still be hot/cold in terms of netting you fantasy points.

I'll go ahead and post my starting team.

QB: Joe Flacco
RB: Ray Rice
RB: Ryan Matthews
WR: Greg Jennings
WR: Anquan Boldin
WR: Wes Welker
W/R: Eddie Royal
TE: Kellen Winslow
K: Ryan Succop
DEF: San Francisco 49ers

Yeah, I'm taking risks with this team. Betting a lot of Welker being just as good post-tear, Boldin and Winslow. I think this will be a breakout season for Flacco, and I guess I was the only one that did since I got him in the 6th round.
