Fantasy Football Team Thread

[rv12]

We've had a lot of action in Shout about this..Figured this would be a good place to post teams and see what others think...

In a 14 team league with the 11th pick.. MJD was my keeper from last year so I lost my 1st round pick and had to sacrifice my 5th round to get a 2nd rounder. (Weird rules...if you keep last year's 1st, you lose 1st and 2nd unless you give up a 5th.. if you keep last year's 2nd.. you lost 2nd and 4th unless you give up 8th.)

10 team Draft and I had the 10th pick. I obviously don't have the best QB's but I saw a lot of value left when I was picking and passed on QBs. What I am hoping for is that I can either trade some of my guys on the bench for a decent QB. Or, that Marshall will increase the value of Henne big time.

No idea if my team is good or not, but I was please with the draft.

Duc, I don't like your receivers at all but your running backs are solid. I love Finley. There will be weeks where I would start Henne over Ryan too so be keeping an eye on that. But for a 10 team league, it's kinda weak to be honest.

I splurged early, had only 69 dollars left after 3 picks by spending them on CJ, Andre and Peyton

Then picked my spots and used a few strategies to pick up the players I wanted by nominating players of the same position that I knew would get picked ahead of the players I wanted.

This team is pretty solid, lacking a little depth at WR IMO and having Finley and Jennings on the same team will hurt because they share TDs. On the other hand they're in a top 3 passing offense in the league and they should have solid seasons. You're probably gonna start MM over Dez, at least at the start of the year, Dez is the 3rd WR on the Cowboys and probably the 4th or 5th scoring option. I've also read that Dallas plans to use Crayton a lot in the red zone because of his physical play and sure hands(don't remember him ever having sure hands but I'm not an NFL OC soo...)

You have a solid RB core with MJD and you can basically play matchups with Best and Foster. Favre will be good but not amazing like last year, Miller is a great #2 TE, and the 49ers D is top 5 IMO.

This team looks pretty descent TBH but with 7 bench spots in a league with 10 starters means that FA pick ups will be huge, especially if you get hit with the injury bug. You may want to grab Jason Snelling and drop Edelman or Cribbs(i'd drop cribbs).

Not a big fan of deangelo because he splits a lot with stewart, or cadillac who is injury prone. At least you have Benson who is solid. And as I mentioned, grabbing snelling would be big cuz I think Turner is likely to get hurt again. You also would've been wise to grab Johnathan Stewart but I'm assuming someone has him.

I don't really like Bowe or Santana Moss, both could have big years, I just think they're big question marks. And if they both are crap no one would be shocked. Finley is good, Ryan and Henne aren't elite but are in that 10-15 range so meh. Everything else looks good, I'm expecting BIG things from Steve Smif this year, and Cinncy D is solid.

I'm not sure if I'd call this a playoff team, you'll probably be middle of the pack, but I can't say that for sure with out seeing other teams...
