Hey i just got my fantasy team and i would appreciate it if you guys were to rate and leave comments on it.

And seeing as i have AP on this team I cant complain :)

The overall team is pretty good but your really going to need RB depth. i would look to drop/trade one of your kickers and maybe a defence to in order to pick up a Rb or 2

hmm...more depth at RB?

Peterson, Bush, and White are not enough? I would say thats plenty of depth. Bush and White might be subject to sharing reps but I think you are good at that position.

I have to agree

with DIL26. I always keep four RBs minimum. Not only do you have two guys that split time (Bush, White), you also have two that have a knack for getting injured (Peterson, Bush). If either goes down you’re screwed, particularly on the bye weeks of the other two. I’d look to pick up Chester Taylor, if he’s available, and possibly a fifth back, like Ricky Williams or Earnest Graham, that’s going to get you 50 or so all-purpose yards per week, even if they’re not starting.

4 stars

would’ve been 5 if you could’ve gotten a better QB. not sayin rodgers is bad but you could do better fantasy wise i think. awesome receivers though.

Superbowl bound!!!...I hope? Go Saints! :D

hmmm....

I dunno…I would have liked brees or brady or something..but with Witten, Pittsburgh, Moss, Steve Smith, and the Purple Jesus, i consider myself fortunate to have the second highest fantasy scoring QB last year

One K

is all u need, til that K has a bye wk, then just grab someone for that wk.,the back-up to your star RB is a good option (I.e. Chester Taylor,Joe Addais’ backup,Fred Jackson-Bills)If someone doesn’t have Steve Slaton already, get him fo-sho. Pretty good team though, had P-Jesus his rookie yr, and he took me to the Championship game….

Same

with Ks and DEFs. Although, it depends on how the league is set up. Unless prevented from doing so, you’re definitely better off with depth at other positions. I personally flip-flop team defenses just about every week based on matchups. If you wish to take this approach, the Cowboys, Saints and Rams D (in that order) are worth drafting. All three will likely face rookie QBs in Week 1.

And you should

be able to get the Saints or Rams D in the last round, so don’t reach for them.

by coldpizza on Jul 30, 2009 9:33 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs

haha definitely the Saints will be available

tho im hoping for fans’ sakes that that turns around next year

How many teams in your FF league and which pick did you have?

1st, 2nd, 3rd? That’s a darn good team! Moss and Smith are more of homerun guys than receptions so I personally don’t know if I would have taken both. Is it a PPR scoring?
Def. want Moss-Smith could be used as trade bait. Overall I give ya 4stars but thats very approximate not knowing the scoring or active positions. (1RB & 2WR?)
