Answer 1

Alright, I'm seeing alot of sleepers and risky players on this squad

QB- Brady won't have nearly as many TD's or YD's as last year, trust me. Now that the Pats have 2 good runners, bellicheck will return to his old scheme of running and passing at 50-50. Brady's still a solid starter. Now Jake Plummer is a hard story. You have cutler rising on the depth chart, and the team is a runner's heaven in the first place. He's a viable backup. Try trading him and vick for a great QB or RB. If your'e playing in a head-to-head style league, then Vick will kill your team in passing yards, but will give a boost to your rushing game...

RB- I don't care what people speculate about portis. He's a great athlete who, at the very latest, will be out for the first week of the season. He's still the #5 RB in the league for fantasy. (now behind tiki barber) As for your 2nd and backup backs, your'e gonna need to find help ASAP. Rhodes is a reach on account of the fact that Peyton loves addai, and Marion Barber won't get many reps during the season. You should trade Barber and Vick to the team with Julian Jones for a better RB.

WR- Ah, i like this core of receivers. Johnson is going to have a sparkling season again...almost as shiny as his gameday gold-teeth! Roy Williams is a potential bust or pro-bowler. For the ex-first rounder, it's his final year to make something big of himself. He has all the tools and coaches around him to do it, so he's a viable #2 option. Your'e 3rd WR is great and deep. I like..d joe horn with brees before i read more into his training camp. It turns out the Saints have alot of solid receivers and will go into 3-4 receiver sets ALOT. Reggie Bush will also take away some of horn's yards by playing on most 3rd downs. Horn's a solid backup though. Johnson, for some odd reason, is on a team in every YAHOO fantasy league I'm in. (except 1, the kid cut the "Key" an hour ago) Johnson is going to be used primarily as a blocker this year for the running game and as a decoy to get guys off of smith. He'll get his touches, but how many fantasy points can he possible nab? that's your call.
Finally, I like Branch as a #3 option, but his hold-out is starting to scare me a little bit, not so much, but enough for me to try trading him away from my team...
TE- Gonzalez is primed to be a bust candidate. Don't worry, he's a top 10 TE, but alot of "experts" have him as the #2 TE in the league. Don't be fooled. He's bound to have even worse numbers than last year now with LJ breaking out and Herm Edwards turning conservative. Try trading him, a WR, and a RB, for Heap and a solid RB. Or LJ smith and a top-tier RB.
As for your backup Heath Miller, youll be extremely happy with him. He's Big Ben's #2 option and the #1 man in the redzone now that the bus is gone.
D- Uh oh. I didn't see this. Call for help right away. These guys will not get you the championship any time soon... the jets you might as well drop, but the bengals you should try trading with keyshawyn johnson for the eagles defense. They will be a top 5 D barring any injuries.

K- John Kasay is alright, but all the kickers in the league, besides the top 3, will all be in the same boat fantasy-wise. I actually like Akers and Janikowski as being primed for a comeback year....

Answer 2

You have no starting running backs, I think your team stinks. Portis is hurt with a separated shoulder, Rhodes you won't see much out of cause with Edge gone Manning will be throwing like an animal and Barber is a back up, so unless Jones goes down you have no running backs which is key to any fantasy team. Plus Michael Vick is the worst fantasy QB. You have no back up kicker. Your only bright spots are Brady, Branch and Johnson and Johnson's numbers (TD's anyway) have been declining because the Bengals like to spread the ball around alot. Look at all the TD's Palmer threw last year and Chad only caught 9. If you like the basement then your team is perfect. Just so you know you heard it here first you will not win your fantasy league this year with that team, so good luck.

Answer 3

I agree, you had a very good draft. I'd give you an 8-9 out of 10. You have a great set of QBs, you may want to consider trading one. You have a good set of RBs, but your backup is unpredictable. Your WRs are amazing, you have a lot of talent to choose from there. Considering all of that AND you have Gonzo AND Heath Miller as a back up TE? That's insane.

The most I would consider looking for is another RB. Marion could be good, but then again he could suck.

Very impressive. Only 3 things can account for such a good draft: 1.) You're in a small league, 2) Everyone else is stupid, 3.) You got very lucky.

:-P

Answer 4

Your team is great. Tom Brady is the 2nd best QB in my opinion behind Peyton. Plummer and Vick are solid backups. Your running backs are definetly your weakest position. Portis is hurt but will have a great year if he comes back healthy and Rhodes will split carries with Addia and Barber is the #2 back for the Cowboys. Your WRs are above average. Johnson is the 2nd best fantasy wise in the league and Williams is going to have a huge year. Horn, Keyshawn, nad Branch are also very good. Your TE, K, DEF are also very good but i would start the Bengals D ahead of the Jets.

Answer 5

Wow, this team is really good. Great depth!! QB, WR, and TE are really good, and K too, Defense make sure you start the Bengals they get a lot of turnovers. RB, Portis is great but I would consider trying to package some of your Qb's to get one more solid RB, but overally 9 out of 10

Answer 6

Not too bad. But your RB corps leaves a lot to be desired. Scan the waiver wire. Pick up Betts in case Portis is out for any length of time. I would also try to trade one of your QB's for a RB. Brady should get you a good runner. Also drop the Jets DEF and pick up a better one.

Answer 7

Team Searchbar!

Answer 8

I like it but i would suggest trading a QB or maybe let portis go for a solid defense. your defense is going to go up against some very tough offenses this year in that division.(Miami, Colts, Patriots, Pittsburg, you get the picture.) Just a suggestion. Good luck anyways

Answer 9

QB: A+

RB: C+ (Clinton Portis Is injured)

WR: A-

TE: A

D/ST: C-

K: B+

Overall: B+

Answer 10

i was confused for a moment. with your avatar, i was getting ready to answer a question about pujols.

for fantasy football, that looks fine, although i think tom brady is overrated and viniteri would have been a better kicker to get.
