Football Alternate Reality Game 3: Starting From Scratch (ROSTERS only)

Mile High Mania · 03:02 PM

Ok guys, I'll put a link to this in the main thread... maybe RM or someone can update the header to show this link.

I think there was interest in using a different thread to post full rosters and commentary, so that's what we can use this thread for ... no trade info or picks, just post your rosters as they are updated and any commentary that you care to provide.

Others are more than welcome to post their feedback (good, bad and ugly).

Have fun.

Ok, here is the roster for the "Butte-Holes"... nice average age for both sides of the ball. Thanks to trades, I got rid of my rookie picks and will load up accordingly on veterans. I have 26 players through 21 rounds so far and I think there's great balance.

I had to trade away Cassel... I took this team over near round 3 or 4 and Cassel was a R2 pick, way too high for my liking. I've traded away my rookie picks in order to load up on 1-2 year veterans with just as much or more upside.

Anyway, my main philosophy so far has been to treat this like a very complex dynasty fantasy football draft. The trick has been when to pull the trigger on OL and depth. I think I've done pretty good so far.

Crested Butte-Holes (26)

QB
Matt Schaub, QB (28)
Trent Edwards, QB (25)
WR/TE
Anquan Boldin, WR (28)
TJ Houshmandzadeh, WR (31)
Roy Williams, WR (27)
Greg Olsen, TE (24)
RB
Peyton Hillis, FB (23)
Brandon Jacobs, RB (27)
Kevin Smith, RB (22)
*(also includes Norwood, listed primarily as the KR)
OL
Marcus McNeil, LT (25)
Robert Gallery, LG (28)
Olin Kreutz, C (32)
Chris Kuper, RG (26)
ST
Mason Crosby, K (24)
Jerious Norwood*, KR/RB (25)

Offense/ST Avg Age = 26.3 years

DL
Julius Peppers, DE/OLB (29)
Ray Edwards, LDE (24)
Kevin Williams, DT (28)
Darryl Tapp, RDE (24)
LB
Kirk Morrison, ILB (27)
Zach Diles, OLB/SLB (24)
Curtis Lofton, MLB (23)
DB
Richard Marshall, CB (24)
Charles Tillman, CB (28)
Gibril Wilson, S (27)
Roman Harper, S (26)

Defense Avg Age = 25.8 years

<<>>

Ok, so what do the other rosters look like... there are several great looking teams building up, but none that can escape the wrath and fury of the Butte-Holes!

Twisters - very sound all around. As I've said over there, our teams mirror each well.

Cobras - I do like the defense.

Hitmen - again, nice defense and I like the QB/RBs... WR is good, but once Ward says "I'm done", there's a gap in production right now.

Nice squad... the only concern really is RB, you don't have a true #1, but you have 2 guys that could get a lot of TDs, just few yards. I'm very hopeful that Felix stays healthy, he can do some amazing things in that offense and he should get you some production on returns if they use him in that manner this season.

There is a lot of upside with your #2-3 WRs... the only problem I have with them (again, this is the fantasy view) is the inconsistency, but I think they'll both do well this year.

Defensively, your DL is tight... I like the LBs and secondary as well.

Cheers. Yer cant disagree with any of this.. Felix staying healthy is something my team is going to have to rely on... Though I guess for the most part my team will be a defensive minded team..

Also i guess im sort of going with the i have Manning so teams will have to respect the pass and as a result hopefully get some nice yards on the ground..

Arrowhead... I think you said you were unhappy with your team, but I think you're in good shape.

Great balance at QB with solid upside in Flacco and a proven Hasselbeck with 1-2 solid years left in him, and he now has TJ Housh... great weapon.

RB - very solid!

WR - you have two great weapons and Royal as a return man is double bonus.

The OL is a work in progress and you have some great components on the defense too. Very nice.
