12 person league on NFL.com
Right now I have:
QB- Kurt Warner
RB- Clinton Portis
RB- Frank Gore
WR-Chris Chambers
WR-Darrell Jackson
TE- Heath Miller
K- Laurence Tynes
DST- Redskins
Backups
QB- Jon Kitna, Mark Brunell
RB- Ladell Betts, Cedric Benson
DST- Bengals
WR- Keyshawn Johnson
I know Portis is Hurt, which is why I have Betts for the time being. I also know that all of my quarterbacks could either be really good or really bad, but I figure one of them will be good.

The consensus seems to be i need a better runningback, any suggestions? I'm not going to get a top back for gore and johnson and the one that i thought of trying for (rudi johnson) owner is a die hard bengals fan and is not going to part with him no matter what. corey dillon and maroney? julius jones? suggestions

I might be able to get Reuben Droughns for Gore straight up.

Oh, ha, I'm actually a browns fan, which is funny because there are pretty much no browns players worth starting.

I like the pick of Kurt Warner. With Arizona being chalk full of talented recievers, he is a great quarterback. I don't see the big deal about Gore honestly. I mean sure he is the feature back (a point especially made when trading Kevean Barlow to the Jets for a 2007 draft pick) but he plays for the 49ers, Chambers can be a good fit for your team depending on wether Culpepper plays. If Culppepper plays and does a good job expect career high numbers for Chambers. D. Jackson was a good pick. Miller is underrated and will have an increased role in the Steeler's offense because Jerome Bettis retired and Antwaan Randle-El is on the Redskins. Look for Miller to especially to have a role in the red zone. I think the move for tynes was a good one. Good job picking Betts as a backup. All fantasy experts suggest that if you pick a running back (like you picked Portis) to pick his back up. You might need Betts a lot depending on how Portis performs during the season. This team has a lot of question marks that might take a while to put together.

Your QB in Warner should be alright and put up huge numbers as long as he doesn't end up injured...
Portis is fine when he gets back (or so Redskin Nation will hope)...If not you have Betts...One thing I see is that you have Gore as second RB, which is sort of concerning since you should have been able to grab someone a little better and have Gore as a possible 3rd...
Chambers will be big this year, and Jackson will have solid numbers. Miller is fine, kicker doesn't really matter as long as you have someone who will make his kicks...Defenses are good...
Back-up QB's could be in trouble, but I like Brunell even though he's getting up there in years...(Redskins fan by the way?)...Benson is a solid back to have if he takes over for Thomas Jones at some point, and I like Keyshawn with the Panthers as a number 2 receiver as well...
Overall about an 8.5/10, only concern is that you could have probably done better then Gore at RB.

ok to be hounest you did ok frank gore is a great pick he did good last year and now kevin barlow is gone he has the potential and the starting job so ur runnin backs are alright but watch for cedric benson to do his thing i think he might be the surprise this yearand portis will be fine by say week 2 Rating c+
your Qb's are good warner is gona do good till bout week 12 wen he gets injured so c how kitna is doing then if he aint doing good look in free agency OR pick up matt linehart hes gona be a star soon enuff brunell will also get replaced by like week 13 hes getting old and jason campbell is starting to look good Rating B-
Recivers are really good with chambers this year he is an elite with culpepper as his qb and darrell jackson is also good with the seahawks now that they improved on the deffense with singing julien peterson there gona be on offense more now but id watch because they did loose steve hutchingson teams are gona pick on that left side of the line and keyshawn is gona do really good this year too steve smith attracts so much attention that keyshawn will get alot of looks
Heath mille is gona do remarkable this year he did last year and he will continue this success this year hes rated so low too i dont noe why hes a good pick .
your deffense is good redskins are gona turn heads this year they finally got a rushing end in andre carter which was good there a sleeper too
overally i think you will finish middle of the leauge
Good luck

I think you were smart at getting kurt warner,, & really like your WR's...But I think you could have done a little better on RB's.. I would look possibly for another RB.. I'm not to sure about Frank Gore San Fran...Good pick on TE though... I think you should trade Keyshawn Johnson, and Frank Gore, for a good RB,,, and pick up Santonio holmes or something at WR in free agency..

don't worry too much. Gore is moviong up the charts now that Balrow has been moved.
Drop Brunnell and pick up Maurice Hicks to protect Gore.
Drop Bengals and pick up another WR - never carry 2 DST, there's no need to. You'll get by with Warner and Kittna. You have a decent team but not great.

Weak at QB, okay at WR and TE. Defense is pretty good and the kicker is good. RB's are okay and you have some depth. Portis will be back to start the season.
Good luck!

Wow, could be a decent team if they stay healthy, but too many risks. A lot of these guys are injury plagued. I have a bad feeling that you will struggle with this team. Chambers should have a Great year though.
