I'm brand new to fantasy football, what do you think of the players I've drafted?
Jake Plummer - QB
Brodie Croyle - QB
Terrell Owens - WR
Plaxico Burress - WR
T.J. Houshmandzadeh - WR
Lee Evans - WR
Brian Westbrook - RB
Domanick Davis - RB
Tony Gonzalez - TE
Jerramy Stevens - TE
Adam Vinatieri - K
David Akers - K
Minnesota - Def
Denver - Def
London Fletcher - D
Keith Bulluck - D
Do I have too many people at any position? Should I get rid of anyone? I'm new at this and think if I ask the people in my league they'll give me bad advice so they can win!
Thanks for any help I can get!

First of all, let me welcome you to a brand new world of fantasy football. I like your team as it is, but your RB situation is muddied at best. Westbrook and Davis are having injury problem this preseason (Westbrook is out for preseason, Davis is sitting out games), so you better get some insurance via Free Agency (Suggest looking at real-life backup for your starting RB or the best RB avalible). I don't see Gonzalez having a good year again with the loss of Pro Bowl Guard Willie Roaf. He'll likely to be ask to block more with an average offensive line at best with Will Shields around. Dump Stevens, as he's likely going to miss the first month of the season. I don't know who Croyle is but he's no fantasy factor this season (go for guys that are starting). Your strongest suit happens to be WR and if Owens is at his best behavior, you might have one of the best receiving crop in your league. Defense is average at best but Denver should be Top-10 by the end of the season while Minnesota is an up-and-coming defense that is still discovering their place. Overall, I think you did a good job with your team and hope for the best. Remember, there is a bye week (that team doesn't play in that particular week) for each team (starting in Week 3), so you need great depth and backup for replacement for this situation.

Not a bad team, but your RB's are both question marks. And unless this is a keeper league I would drop Croyle and pick up a QB who will actually play this year. Love to see women getting involved in FF though. Good luck!

ok first ur
QB's - jake plummer will be good now he has javon walker take out brodie and c some good qb's like look for david carr jon kitna some 1 like that then ull have good set of qb's
Rb's - ok u need help here since the eagles are close to a deal with free agent stephen davis thats gona steal td's from westbrook so your gona have to mab ship him out wit domink davis in hopes of getting like willis mcgagee or rudijohnson or sumthing like that than look in free agency if deangelo williams is there pick him up hes gona be starting by week 4 hes a really good back i think hes goin over 1,000 yard plateao.
Wr's- this is perfect keep plaxico buress and T.J trade off T.O with westbrook and get a decent runnin back like mab u can get edgerrin james or rudi johnson or steven jackson and lee evans is a sleeper in buffalo hes gona do good solid back up the reason y you trade t.o is cause he is gona be a disapointment he cause to much ish just trade him for a safer pick in runnin back.
Te's - are good tony will end up goin to the pro bowl with another great season and release jermey hes out for a long time go and c if ben watson or ben troupe is there , there both gona do or mercadeis lewis wouldnt hurt neither.
Deffense- start denver cause they have the best linebackers in the leauge with al wilson,d.j williams, and ian gold and with the best corner champ bailey there deffense is good same with vikings good picking with the deffense.
Kickers-Are top of the line they are both amazing kickers
You did good for your first time have fun this year and try to make playoffs with my strategy you will :)

QB-get rid of Brodie Croyle...drop him pick up any other starting QB
WR- You are stocked, keep all of them. They are all good.
RB- They are both good but prone to injury. You need not one, but two backups, as neither one are true workhorses.
TE-Keep both, or trade one for a good running back.
K-drop one to make room for a back up RB (Akers)
D- drop Minnesota to make room for a back up RB
D-drop or trade Keith Bullock fast as you can!!!
