Wow that was a lot of typing so please respond.

Team 7 is stacked, especially if Selvin Young can manage to hold on to the starting spot in Denver all season.

Team 3 is pretty interesting, you don't see the QB/RB tandem very often, but I like that one.

Team 1 looks very good as well.


Those are my 3 favorites, and Team 10 is probably my least favorite, worst set of RBs in the league to start the season.

I don't like 7 much at all.

I probably like 9 the best. Teams 1, 2, 3, and 11 are also very solid.

It's mostly because passing TDs are worth 6 that I really like Team 7. They have two first rounders and Fitz is an early 2nd rounder, that's a lot of firepower. Steve Smith is no slouch either. If Selvin Young works out at RB2 then either Hines Ward or Nate Burleson should be a more than adequate flex fill-in.

My first reaction was also that I didn't care as much for team 7. Outside of Portis, there is no reliable RB. I don't like Selvin Young's prospects in the Denver offense much at all. While Brady is the top QB, I see him finishing on the underside of 40 passing TDs this season and there are a couple of others who should be reaonably close to that total.

I really like team 1. LT and Lewis will combine for 3000+ yards and 30+ TDs. Add in Colston and Heap and that is a very strong team.

I like team 3 as well. Even if McNabb falters, having Bulger really solidifies that position. I really like the starting RBs and WRs, and with Bush and Coles there is some good depth.

Team 6 is going to be very good as they picked up a glut of excellent WRs to go with Winslow, Grant, and Rivers. They don't need Thomas Jones to be a stud, just productive to be a top 15 or so and they will go deep.

Thanks for the input fellas... Greatly appreciated. For the record, I am team 1. I was really pleased with my team and think that I have a legit chance to compete for a championship at this point. If anyone else would like to give their 2 cents, go right ahead.

Your Team-
QBs-hopefully Anderson recovers, I'm not sure what to think of the Az situation yet...one week Leinart is the man, then he says he will throw Warner in there. I think the Browns didn't look at that good last night also.

RBs-I think Lewis is due for a breakdown, I think LT should be great and Turner will be good also. Smith is in a situation with no challenger and a coach that wants to run the hell out of the ball...but is a rookie, Watson is going to be in a RBBC and Sproles is a tiny dude who will be in a RBBC if LT does get hurt. Norwood is going to get some touches also.

WRs-Colston is good, I had Holmes last year...he was very spotty in scoring in the first part of the season...I dropped him, but then he went off a couple of times. Gonzalez will be good, but I think next year and Curry might be the man in that offense if they get anything going.

TEs-Heap should come with a insurance policy the guy is hurt so much.

DEF-like the Seattle pick, they did well last year and think they will be even better this year.

I think you should cover your butt and p/u Brady Quinn...he looked good last night...to cover your investment in Anderson. I think you should keep your eyes peeled for better recievers and a back up tight end.

Thanks for responding to my post.

I like Team 3s starting lineup, Team 7s starting lineup if Green or Jones do anything ( but he has Brady, Portis, Young, Fitz, Smith (after sus)...so maybe he won't have to worry about that, team 11 looks tough too.
