Wow. I haven't seen a team like this in a really long time. This team can really kick butt or totally tank. It's that inconsistent.
My ratings:
QB: Aaron Brooks and Mike Vick
Brooks is average at best and has the knack to throw a lot of interceptions. He can have solid years, but he really hurts teams by throwing a lot of interceptions. With Randy Moss, however, Brooks might get back on track and have a good year. Vick is really good at running, but his passing skills leave something to be desired. Everyone is waiting for Vick to bust out, but it hasn't happened yet. Maybe this is Vick's year. You'd better hope so.
Grade: C+
WR: Joe Horn, Randy Moss and Matt Jones
Horn is a flier. He is injury prone, but when he plays he's one of the best. With a stable quarterback in Drew Brees, there's a possibility that Horn will get back on track and get over the 1000 yard hump again. Randy Moss is also injury prone. Over the past two seasons, Moss has had two stints on the DL. When he's in, Moss is the best receiver in the game. You'd better hope that they both don't go down, because that is a very real possibility. Matt Jones will have a very solid season this year. He is probably Byron Leftwich's only real target, so he should get plenty of yards this year. Your depth is not particularly good.
Grade: C+ - You can't win if you're not playing.
RB: Steven Jackson, Joseph Addai and Domanick Davis
Everyone seems to be sold on Jackson, but I haven't seen any sort of ability from him to be solid the whole year. Over the last half of the year, he really seemed to be struggling. He will be more consistent this year, though. Domanick Davis is one of my sleeper picks this year. After his horrible year last year, people are starting to underestimate him. They shouldn't because this guy has proven that he can score and score a lot (he scored 13 touchdowns 2 years ago), so I'm expecting a big year out of him. Addai is another player that will have a big year. Playing with the Colts should guarantee him for plenty of touchdown opportunitities and he will convert on those chances. Count on Addai playing like a workhorse runner.
Grade: B-
TE: Todd Heap and Kellen Winslow
Heap is really good. With Steve McNair, he will be even better. Winslow is solid, hard to say how he will do after missing a year's worth of action.
Grade: A
WR/RB: Warrick Dunn
I like Dunn a lot; he burns up a lot of yards on the ground and in the air, but he doesn't seem to get in the endzone as much as I would like. He only got in like 3-5 times last year, and this might be the position that could make or break your team.
Grade: B-
K: Ryan Longwell
Longwell was good outdoors at Lambeau Field. He will be even better indoors with Minnesota. I have no idea why you want to get rid of him. You gotta keep this guy because he will produce.
Grade: A
Defense: Steelers
The Steelers shut down the Colts in the playoffs and the Seahawks and destroyed two of the best offenses in the league. If you don't like these guys, than you just suck.
Grade: A
Overall grade: B
Some suggestions...
1. Pick up at least another solid receiver because Moss and Horn are injury prone, and if they both go down, than you'll only have Jones. You need another receiver.
2. I would try to get a more consistent quarterback. Brooks and Vick will either blow the either team away, or bite you in the ***.
3. Good luck to your fantasy team.
Hope that helps.

You need a more reliable QB. Is Brunell available? His numbers should soar under the new offensive scheme. You RB's are solid, Addai is a good back up, and Winslow may be a sleeper at TE, but with Heap there might not be much call for him on your roster.
Longwell's bound to improve his numbers indoors instead of on the frozen tundra. I'd keep him and see if anyone on the waiver wire emerges better the first few weeks. One sleeper may be Jon Hall, another possible benefator of the revamped Washington scheme.

First of all keep Longwell! He will be more productive in a dome this season. Second of all start Vick! You have good wr's and te's , i think rb's are weak. You should trade dominik davis or aaron brooks for a better rb. You can all ways pick up a qb like Jon Kitna or Mcnair or Simms

for picking 10th in a 12 team league I think you have a good team. If Davis and Dunn stay healthy you will be very strong at RB. I'm not sure about Aaron Brooks, he is a gamble, but he could be the X factor. WR's will produce. Top 5 TE, good defense, so-so kicker.

Your QB situation isn't good. Brooks has never been a good fantasy QB and Vick is hit and miss. Dominick Davis is going to see less carries as well. It's o.k but I'm not jumping up and down.

Obviously you like Oakland - me too. I like your picks, a couple of things;
Mike Vick? Not for me. Dominick Davis - a good runner, but I'd rather have Tatum Bell, Todd Heap? Jason Witten for me.And for a kicker, why not Josh Brown.

did you auto-draft, or did you actually CHOOSE to have that team? you've got a team of sleepers, if by sleepers you mean players who would do better if they were sleeping.
