questions i have:
1. Who should i play at TE?and most of the good TE are gone
2. Should i drop a kicker and get cincanatti or anyone elses D?
3. I can't decide if i should use Eli or get somebody else for hasselbacks bye but most r gone too.
4. How do you like my roster?Do you have any ideaS?

Answer 1

You should play LJ Smith at Tight End a lot since he has a great raport with Mcnabb.

Cincinnati's D is ok. But I would go after someone elses, depends who is out there.

You should get by with Eli better than with Hasselbeck, Hasselbeck has lost some tools and now has no name recievers to throw to.

I think you should have a good season and make the playoffs.

Answer 2

1.) Todd Heap is a great choice at TE, stick with him for most weeks. And LJ Smith is a pretty good backup option.

2.) You don't need to pick up a second defense right now. The Steelers should be good as always, but you can drop a K to add more depth at WR if you want.

3.) Wait and see how Eli does. Hasselback won't be on bye until week 8, you will know by then whether Eli is reliable or another QB option will emerge on the waiver wire.

4.) Overall your roster is pretty good. Your main (and basically only) weakness right now is your second RB. MJD is great, but he is going to be splitting time with Taylor again even though he deserves to be the lone featured back.

Answer 3

1. I'd play Smith... not many good TE's anyway
2. Wouldn't drop a kicker. Would drop Lamont Jordan. he's not going to get you anything with Oakland

3. Keep Eli.. and then watch how they work. you may want eli for games that are more in his favor than Hasselbeck

4. roster if ok... Roy williams is a question mark.. I'd put in coles.. CHESTER TAYLOR?!!? won't get enough running to worry about. Kickers are real nice EXCEPT they are both from AFC WEST and Imagine they both have the same off week... Brandon Jacobs is a tweener. If he gets some carries you'll be fine, however, i don't see that.

That's my take.. 6.5 on the roster. Need to improve those wideouts and trading a kicker might get it for you

Answer 4

1. Heap is a good TE. You can start him and rest easy.

2. No need to carry two kickers. On the bye week, you can always find a suitable replacement for one week.

3. Hasselbeck. Eli hasn't shown enough to be anyone's #1 yet.

4. Strong starters, but a little light on the bench.


Solid B+

Answer 5

Good questions.

Play the stormin mormon at TE who knows what is going on in philly.

Yes, there is no need for two kickers. Get another D to play the strength of schedule. (Just pick up a free agent on his bye week and drop him the next) Drop or trade Elam. Kaeding is the real deal now.

You don't need Eli and Hasselbeck. Throw him and MJD in a trade for one good Reciever or RB. Just pick up a hot free agent on Hasselbecks bye.

I do like your roster. Good work. I think Smith may be overrated this year and I think MJD just had a freakish good year last year and may be overpriced.

Answer 6

1. Play Heap, but he will get hurt later.
2. Nothing wrong with picking up another D, just make sure they don't have the same by week as Pittsburgh. so yes drop a kicker.
3. Eli will do fine as a backup, just look who he plays on Seattle's bye week.
4. You do need another WR, I would drop Jordan and find the best WR out there in the league.

Answer 7

Go with Todd Heap. Start him. I wouldn't be quick to make any more moves until the season starts and you see how your team is doing. But if you feel you need more talent, I would drop Eli Manning because he's gonna suck this season without Tiki Barber to save him.

Answer 8

RB-Jordan is done, his best years are behind him.

You onl need 1 TE, try to improve your BN RB's
