how do you think I did in my fantasy draft?

Question

I was impressed with my team, and really don't know how I did so well. It's 12 teams.

QB: Carson Palmer
RB: Sean Alexander
RB: Willie Parker
WR: Hines Ward
WR: Javon Walker
WR: Larry Fitzgerald
TE: Todd Heap
K: Jeff Reed
DEF: Cincinnati

Bench: Jake Delhomme, Tatum Bell, Matt Jones, Ben Watson, Bucs Defense

Answer 1

you must have some people that don't know what they are doing, but good draft...i like SHAUN alexander..who doesn't...palmer..injury will play a big role in his performance this year..fitz, ward and walker i like.

Answer 2

You did very well.
There are some tiny question marks with your team, however.
While Palmer had a very good season overall, he really struggled those last 3 - 4 games by trying to implement a Peyton Manning no huddle offense into the Bengals. Also, we don't know how good Palmer will be after that major knee surgery. Will he be as good as he was before? Probably, but there is some doubts. Palmer's Bengals are also playing the toughest schedule in the league along with the Giants, so don't count on him to have the season he had last year. Expect around 25 Touchdowns and 15 picks from Palmer this year.
Alexander is excellent, but he might have the Madden curse on him, so watch out.
Parker is solid but he doesn't get as many TDs as I would like. I would be inclined to start stud Tatum Bell rather than Willie Parker, if Bell gets enough carries.
Your WR corps is really good. Ward is going to have an even bigger season with just as many TD grabs as last year.
Javon Walker, however, is a question mark. He to is coming off surgery, so he might struggle at first before finding his groove.
Fitzgerald is a rare talent, but I don't envision him having the same season that he had last year. He should get around 1275 yards and 9 TD grabs.
Heap is solid, no questions asked.
Reed is solid.
Sit down Cincinnati, please!!! The Cincinnati defense is truly overrated. Why are you starting them over the Bucs??? Over the last 7 games, the Bengals D was truly pathetic considering that they couldn't stop anything.
By the way, nice job.

Answer 3

QB: Carson Palmer- kinda sketchy, with the injury,
Jake Delhomme- good back-up (start him until palmer is FULLY recovered)
grade: B+
RB: Sean Alexander- madden curse?
Willie Parker- will carry load for the steelers
Tatum Bell- will share time w/ ron dane
grade: B-
WR: Hines Ward-great reciever
Javon Walker- ACL injury, he'll be amazing next year, but not this one
Larry Fitzgerald-great reciever, but share touches w/bolden
Matt Jones-good for late rounds
grade: C+
TE: Todd Heap-had good #'s w/ a bad qb, imagine him w/ mcnair
Ben Watson- he gets the TE touches for NE
grade: A
K: Jeff Reed- he'll get more chances w/o the bus
grade: A
DEF: Cincinnati, Bucs-both teams depend on these D's for them to win, esp. Bengals week 1 and 2
grade: A-

Total Grade : B+

Answer 4

Palmers is solid, could get hurt though. Shaun is as good as you can get and one of the big three (LJ, LT, and Alexander). Parker is sketchy as a back up and Tatum Bell is a really crappy bench player. WR look good, so long as J Walk stays healthy. Even if he isn't though, Matt Jones should be a good third option. Heap is a second tier guy, probably the best available when you got him. Kicker is terrible. Defense is blah as well. Could be a decent year for you though in a twelve team league. Look out for a few big let down weeks though

Answer 5

It's not bad. Having Jake Delhomme as a backup is bigger than you think.

Assuming you took Shaun Alexander first, who did you pass up in the rounds afterwards?

If it's a Yahoo league can you give us the league ID number so we can see who are still out there as free agents?

Last year in my league the Chicago defense was out there for a month before being picked up.

Answer 6

nevertheless LT for me. he's consistent and by no capacity gets injury. i think of Peterson will in all likelihood flow 2d, then perhaps Brady. I hate drafting a QB that best considering the fact which you're in accordance with him to have yet another monster 365 days. And possibilities are high he won't. Manning did no longer reproduction his incredible season the subsequent 365 days. after which you look on the RB's you're passing as much as get Brady, i does not do it. yet, perhaps delusion soccer is changing. With Qb's passing for extra TD's, taking a QB intense might desire to be worth it. i'm hoping it happens because of the fact next 365 days, i'm drafting final so if good RB's fall to me, i'm going to be ecstatic.

Answer 7

Well done! I like how you backed up Palmer with Delhomme and Parker with Bell. Keep an eye out for backup RBs as training camps progress!

Answer 8

you did very well.

Does not mean you will wi, but you drafted well.

I would see if he miami orthe vikings def are available. they have a great week 15 and 16 match up.

I would assume you did well enough o make the playoffs, but the key is to make the playoffs and have great matchups so you can win! I am not usre you team does!

Alexander may not play alot against SF if the hawks have clinched so it is hard to say how good our team is right now!

Answer 9

good team .. i wasnt gunna comment untill i saw u have bucs D on tha bench .. that really hurts .. u gotta start Bucs D over Cincci .. especially this year because they are gunna win it all .. one other thing, since im commenting, i dont think Willie Parker will have a great season , i think he was a dud .. but its all good you have Tatum Bell ..if i'm right.
Good Luck

Answer 10

WOW! How you got all that I will never know, but i would try gettina descent rb and wr by trading bucs and watson.

Answer 11

carson palmer is extremely solid and sean alexander dont even get me started...hines ward SB winner....Fitzgeral rising rookie....Heap nothing bad bout hiim....and Cinci has a playoff def.
