thats good advice from everyone, but i think people forget that the raiders defense was really good last year, look it up, it was the offense that seriously sucked. and i think that with the addition of donavin darius, they might be even better. also, travis henry had 1200 yards and 7 tds last year running behind the tennessee titans line, which was ranked 26th overall last year. now hes running in denver, which always has a killer line. all the other critizisms are fair though

why is everyone hating on Henry? in 2002 and 2003 he ran for more than 1350 yards and had more than 10 tds a year. THAT WAS IN BUFFALO!
imagine what he could do in Denver where even Mike Anderson and Orlandis Gary can run for 1000 yards in a season.
Expect a monster year from Henry!!
8 of 10. great picks

Sorry to tell you but that is not a very good team, but it isn't awful.. Henry has never proved anything in the league, and without manning at quarterback, james is not as good. The only reason he ever did good was cause teams played with 4 cornerbacks to stop manning. He no longer has that luxary. Houshmandzadeh will be solid and ward wont be dissappointing but it is always risky to take a rookie even to the potential of calvin johnson. He has a lot of plays and schemes to memorize and he wont be productive until later in the season. Manning is a good pick obviously. LJ Smith is not a bad Te but not winslow or gates either. Rackers will do good, and denver's defense is pretty good but defenses dont get a lot of points and you should probably just drop oaklands d now because oakland will be terrible.The problem with your team is that they are not balanced enough to keep up with whatever team has tomlinson. I won my 10 man fantasy championship last year and took 2nd the year before, and won the year before that too, in my only three years played so I know a lot. I was able to beat the tomlinson team because my team was balanced enough to be more productive than his other players. Whoever has LT could start back ups and almost keep up with you lol. I would look to trade manning and james early in the season for a wr and a good rb. Try to get Larry Johnson. Whoever has him may be more willing to trade than the person with LT. You wanted the truth and I gave it to you the best I could, gl!

If this is a 10 team league, that team is a 9. I'm not in love with smith, but he's par for a TE. James is going to have a huge year with the receivers that they have needing so much defensive attention. Everything else is solid. If its an 8 team league, this team is still an 8.

so, you are in an 8 man league? a Very Solid team, what positions do you need to start each week. I would also look for another WR at some point, to shore up depth.

6 at best your defense is terrible and when Manning goes on bye you will get hammered with McNair. Your runnung backs are questionable.
