Ok here's the evaluation buddy
QBs--Love carson Palmer looks like you got a steal on him based on the other star players you have--I'm guessing 5th round? Wow I don't know how you pulled this off you must have had some crazy trades or something. Carson Palmer may not be Joe Montanna week one, but as the season goes on he will get stronger.
Daunte Culpepper will be a solid backup for you down in Miami. He has Chris Chambers to pass to (finally...a receiver to throw to!)...so he will be solid if you need him week one if you feel Carson won't cut it, and also on Carson's bye week.
A 96
RBs--Westbrook is good but not great--love Tiki Barber...with defenses focused on Eli Manning he will have so much room to manuever. I also love Dunn as a backup since Duckett is out of town. He will be getting a lot more goal-line carries, which translates to touchdowns and fantasy points for you.
I cringe at your pick of Duckett however--you aren't gonna' start him obviously, and by the time bye weeks come around where you could sub him, Portis will be back in! So perfect in RBs besides wasting one on him.
A 96
WRs--Steve Smith is a beast; he catches everything Jake Delhomme thows within a country mile of him. Eli Manning is only getting better as he gains experience, and Plaxico Burress is the one who will be catching the ball for him. Excellent choice. If Deion Branch gets his trade he wants from New England than he should be a solid back up. If not...well watch him closely and see what kinda' yards he's getting. Worst case you might have to drop him.
A or B 95/88--If Branch works out then great, if not then you probably had to waste a 11th round pick on him. So a 95/88 pending Branch's playing time.
The rest of your bench looks good...Carolina D rocks! Bucs D should be suficient on bye week.
A 97 on the D
Don't like your kicker much, that's about my only beef with your team. A Shayne Graham, Jay Feely, Jason Elam...someone up there gets a LOT more fantasy points then a David Akers. You don't have to have Neil Rackers, but you should always get a good kicker. If you can try and trade for one.
B 83 on kickers
Overall--excellent. Great D, you locked down a good running game, which is essential to fantasy football. Carson should be great at QB, and Culpepper is perfect backup. I didn't mention Jeremy Shockey, but he has great potential in NY with Eli and the gang.
Final grade: If this is a real fantasy team, then man! You either had a reallllly good draft or you are a smooth operator as far as trading goes. Solid at every position but kicking (which is not a huge deal).
Final evaluation: A 96

good depth at RB. I am unsure about how your QBs will turn out because both are coming off of injuries.
Overall i like your team
