[Clayton80future]

Wow, IMO your team has loads of potential, but for the moment it looks very questionable.


McNabb - can he play enough to generate lots of fantasy points as your starting QB?
Young - is he ready to develop into a passer, given that his biggest weakness is mental toughness?

Jackson - he's a great fantasy back, no question. Hopefully he plays a full 16 games or darn near it, because he's by far and away your most solid selection.

McFadden - how will he translate to the NFL? If he's anything like Adrian Peterson and gets the opportunities, which he definitely should, then you got another awesome fantasy RB.

What round did you draft D-Fad, BTW?

This is probably the last year we see Edgerrin James in his prime, at least with the wear-and-tear he's had at 30 that's what I believe. He should be a very good fantasy RB this season behind a more experienced offensive line.

Andre Johnson is a great fantasy receiver and with Matt Schaub entering his second season, he might bust out another huge season, possibly bigger than any other he's had.

Calvin Johnson has the potential to be the best receiver in the NFL. Can he do that this season? Probably not, but I do believe he will provide you with a consistent performer week after week, and might catch over 10 TDs.

Deion Branch is a decent third fantasy receiver, but he's another "can he stay healthy?" type.

Michael Clayton. . .I have no freaking idea.

Kellen Winslow should produce like a top five, maybe the best TE in the league. Great selection, and he's to be started every chance you can.

Maybe Kevin Boss surprises enough that he'll be a good fantasy TE, so you have decent insurance at the position.

Vinatieri is a solid fantasy K.

The Steelers defense looks to be tops in the league once again, and the Cardinals have some playmakers that can score, so that's a pretty good choice.


Your team is talented, but there are so many other great players out there who were selected as well, which needs to be taken into consideration.

QB - top 5 potential, but might not be able to play enough
RB - should be top 7, could be top 3
WR - a top 3 (if healthy), a top 20 who might vastly improve, an injury prone third option, and a no-show at the four spot (that could change, hopefully)
TE - a lock to be a top 5 TE, possibly the best; solid backup
K - should be top 10, I suppose
Def - a top 5 scoring defense that needs to generate more turnovers; a spotty defense that can score, but could also give up many scores



I hope my assessment is deemed correct by others, but this is how I see your team.


My grade: a respectable and slightly optimistic 'B-' for now; potentially an 'A' if every player stays healthy for the vast majority of the season, as all your positions could be top 5 players.

[Monty'sCircus]

IMHO...Id be concerned.
And just so you dont think Im being an *** to just be one...here's one of mine:

QB-Derek Anderson
WR-Braylon Edwards
WR-Chris Chambers
WR-Javon Walker
RB-Adrian Peterson
RB-Ronnie Brown
TE-Vernon Davis
WR-Dwayne Bowe
RB-Maurice Jones Drew
QB-Jake Delhomme
RB-Rudi Johnson
WR-Sidney Rice
RB-Kevin Smith

K-Jeff Reed

Def-Tampa Bay

Stockpile RBs and trade them for what ever you need as the season goes on.

wow. how'd you get MJD, peterson, AND ronnie brown? thats an insane RB group.

[DemonBuc]

I like your team Monte. Here's what I managed to get from an auction draft.

QB- Peyton Manning, Derek Anderson
RB- Jamal Lewis, Ronnie Brown, Selvin Young, Matt Forte, Kevin Smith
WR- Randy Moss, TJ Houshmandzadeh, Greg Jennings, Chris Chambers
TE- Chris Cooley, Donald Lee
DEF- Patriots, Buccaneers
K- Mason Crosby

Auction drafts are really great. People always spend too much too early, leaving players typically picked in rounds 2-4 in a normal draft wide open.

[Monty'sCircus]

wow. how'd you get MJD, peterson, AND ronnie brown. thats an insane RB group.

I started with the 2nd overall pick...AP was obiviously the choice

1. (2) Adrian Peterson RB
2. (19) Ronnie Brown RB
3. (22) Braylon Edwards WR
4. (39) Maurice Jones-Drew RB
5. (42) Derek Anderson QB
6. (59) Dwayne Bowe WR
7. (62) Chris Chambers WR
8. (79) Javon Walker WR
9. (82) Jake Delhomme QB
10. (99) Tampa Bay DEF
11. (102) Vernon Davis TE
12. (119) Rudi Johnson RB
13. (122) Sidney Rice WR
14. (139) Jeff Reed K
15. (142) Kevin Smith RB

*I try and stay away from 1st year players and 2nd year WRs (though I took a risk on Bowe).

If you stockpile RBs, you will be fine. They are worth their weight in gold and can garnish a decent return...

just food for thought

[FSUbuccaneer06]

What round did you draft D-Fad, BTW?

44th pick overall. 4th round, 8th pick

[FSUbuccaneer06]

we should have a TBBBB league. we could make it on NFL.com

[2.0]

im only really worried about my QB situation.

I had McNabb last season and when he is playing he can be very good I got lots of points for him.

[FSUbuccaneer06]

in his last 3 games he had a 6:0 TD to int. ratio or something close to it. im hoping that carries through to this season

I think that your team could be either spectacular or terrible. Almost every player on your roste has at least one question mark. Overall, I would still be pleased If I was you.

[FSUbuccaneer06]

i now dropped arizona DST and picked up brett favre. just in case

[Hawxter19]

WR- A. Johnson, L. Evans, C. Chambers, A. Bryant, V. Jackson

[FSUbuccaneer06]

i made the league. it is the "TBBB fantasy league". the league is private to our users, so the password to sign up for the league is "selmon". the draft is july 26 at 8:30 ET. hope you guys join. i'll make another thread about it

[Hawxter19]

Instead of making a new thread, I'll just add to this one.

Tenth pick of a twelve team league -

QB- Tom Brady, David Garrard
RB- Clinton Portis, Maurice Jones-Drew, Brandon Jacobs, Ricky Williams
WR- Terrell Owens, Plaxico Burres, Chris Chambers, Ernest Wilford
TE- Owen Daniels, Zach Miller

TOM BRADY AT THE TENTH PICK?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! WHAT THE ****?

[caddy&clayton]

Here is mine. I picked 6th overall in a twelve-team, 14 player league.

QB: Jay Cutler (DEN)
RB: Marion Barber (DAL)
RB: Jamal Lewis (CLE)
WR: Terrel Owens (DAL)
WR: Anquan Boldin (ARI)
WR: Laverneous Coles (NYJ)

Backups

QB: Jake Delhomme (CAR)

RB: Felix Jones (DAL)
RB: Deuce McCallister (NO)
WR: Anthony Gonazalez (IND)



Wow, I just noticed, that's pretty weird that I have 3 Cowboys, 2 cardinals, and 2 Broncos.

And, in case you are wondering, I picked Jones as a Barber replacement, because you should always be ready for a disaster.

Heh, only league I'm in (still not all that much into fantasy football, not enough time to keep up) I had the same first two picks.

Ended up with this team:

QB: Peyton Manning (don't ask how he slipped)
WR: Roy Williams
WR: Hines Ward
WR: Lee Evans
RB: Adrian Peterson
RB: Ronnie Brown
TE: Donald Lee

K: Neil Rackers

DEF: Pittsburgh

DB: Bob Sanders
DB: Laron Landry
DL: Barrett Ruud
DL: Lofa Tatupu

BN: Brett Favre
BN: Jake Delhomme
BN: Joey Galloway
BN: Santana Moss
BN: LenDale White
BN: Fred Taylor
BN: Chris Johnson
BN: Justin Fargas

That was a very long draft. Think I came out with a lot of trade bait and a lot of mediocre WR's. Time to get to my GM work.
