Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted August 12, 2011 (edited) My first of the year.... Picked 11/12. Players without numbers next to them are starters. Player with numbers are depth. QB: Josh Freeman QB2: Matt Hasselbeck WR: Larry Fitzgerald WR: Mike Wallace WR: Mike Williams (Tampa) WR2: AJ Green WR3: Roy Williams WR4: Jerricho Cotchery RB: Mojo RB: Ryan Grant RB2: Brandon Jacobs TE: Marcedes Lewis TE2: Tony Moeaki (My 2nd to last pick.. Not many great option left anywhere) D/ST: Philly K: Josh Brown I am obviously weak on the RB depth... Thinking about trading one of my wideouts... If you guys have a RB in mind that may still be a FA and will see some action, let me know! Edited August 12, 2011 by Favre4Ever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maverick 791 Posted August 25, 2011 No posts? I like this team. Freeman should be a stud. Your WR corps are nice. Fitz proved last year it doesn't matter who's throwing to him, he'll catch a ball, Wallace will be in the Top 10 as far as fantasy points are concerned for receivers, and Mike Williams is a #1 WR that should only build on his stats last year. Backups are decent, too. All have good potential. RBs, as you have stated, is where you lack. Mojo will give you Top 5 production unless he suffers more than I would think from his injury. Personally, I stay away from Ryan Grant but we'll call that your homer pick lol. Jacobs is iffy too. Overall, your QB and receiving threats should get you to the playoffs. Your backs will determine whether you get the title. By the way, what round did you get Mercedes in? Also a sweet pick. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

badgers 380 Posted August 25, 2011 i honestly think your team is weak. im sure there were better players out there. Weak? Please, explain. I literally see no problems with his team, other than running back is a bit "understaffed" but he should have no problems come regular season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shotgun 442 Posted August 25, 2011 i honestly think your team is weak. im sure there were better players out there. His team is very solid. The only downside is his depth at RB, and I've found depending on how the draft goes it can be difficult to get that this year. I usually just grab someone behind an injury-prone RB or try to nab someone who seems to be doing better than people may have thought at the beginning of the season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rzb+ 367 Posted August 25, 2011 I usually just grab someone behind an injury-prone RB or try to nab someone who seems to be doing better than people may have thought at the beginning of the season. Yea, I get the two required RBs then load up on WRs (while somewhere getting another RB to warm my bench until the others' byes). I find most of my stud RBs in FA, haha. Always have so I've twisted my draft toward that. As for the picks above, I like them. I know this board is very pro-Freeman, but there's a good chance he goes into that sophomore slump. May want to keep your eyes open on the QB lines just in case. I really like the receiving squad. It may be powerful enough to counter the running weakness. From what I continue to hear, this year will be more pass-friendly so this may just have ended up perfectly. And was there not a better defense available? Eagles may end up being great trade bait, especially if your RBs don't deliver to your liking. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I find most of my stud RBs in FA, haha. Always have so I've twisted my draft toward that. This is all really great stuff except the trading part. In my league it costs you 10 points the week you trade. Thus 105 points become 95. If you have 2 players out in one week, you spend twenty points to replace them. Or accept 0 points from them. WE have eight active players and a three player bench. Every add/drop or trade being 10 points in this weeks game and overall season score you have to closely appraise every move.
