So how did I do on my FF League?

[Ruhskins]

Maybe we can modify this thread to be a Fantasy Football roster show off? If so here is my team. (My league has ten teams, we start 2 QBs, 2 RBs, 1 RB/WR, 2 WRs, 1 TE, 1 D/ST, and 1 K)

QB1: Drew Brees
QB2: Vince Young
RB1: DeAngelo Williams
RB2: LeSean McCoy
RB/WR: CJ Spiller
WR1: Greg Jennings
WR2: Michael Crabtree
TE: Tony Gonzalez
D/ST: Steelers
K: Stephen Gostkowski

first off i like the idea of a brag about your ff team thread idea.

on your squad:
i really like this team minus the rbs. i mean they are solid, just not spectacular like the rest of the team. if spiller steps up you will really be in business.

Thanks for the comments. This is a keeper league that I'm in and Brees has been carrying my team for the past two years, including winning the league two years ago. I think D. Williams could be a good RB, but Jonathan Stewart may take carries away from him. I hope Williams stays healthy, he looked GREAT during the preseason, so I hope that carries. I really don't know what to make of McCoy, maybe Kolb sucks it up and they decide to run the ball. I know Spiller is a toss up, if he doesn't break down he should be a good RB. I have Tim Hightower on the bench, and he will be a good back up. I really like Jennings, I think he'll have a monster season. And we'll see about Crabtree, he put up some good points coming into the middle of the season last year.

You've got to tell us how the scoring works in your league in order to make an accurate assessment. However, I agree with everyone else that you shouldn't carry 2 defenses and 2 kickers.

[Mechanix544]

actually, for a 12 man league, that draft is pretty damn awesome.

Fitzgerald, Adrian peterson AND Brady???

damn, you must have some idjits in your league......whew.

Id love me some of that team.

aceinthehouse -- It's insane to waste picks on backup defenses, kickers, and TEs. You take someone off the waiver wire in the weeks with bye problems. It's much more beneficial to be gambling on late rounders like Naanee, Aromashodu etc. You can also take big backs' handcuffs like Javon Ringer and Bernard Scott.

WTF, here is my $$$ league team. Overall I'm pretty happy with it.
It's a 12 team league, with 2 keepers; 1 QB, 2 RBs, 3 WRs, TE, K, Def.
I hated drafting Romo but passing TDs are worth 6pts in our league and he was around in the 5th so I felt like I had to even though I was keeping Ryan for an 8th (dumb move by me).

really like this team, and you have to take rashad jennings with all of the mjd questions. i would be careful with owen daniels, he may be limited. you might want to play the match ups on some other guys this week.

Yeah, I'm thinking about dropping Lynch and grabbing another TE. I think Lynch could be a steal in the 14th, especially if he gets traded, but another TE for the first few weeks might be better while Daniels heals up a little more.
I'm probably also going to grab a new kicker. I don't really care who I get since that position is such a crap shoot.

lynch in the 14th is awesome, but there are too many other guys taking touches from him. if he gets traded, you are right, he could be really solid. speaking of replacement TEs, zach miller and greg olsen should have good weeks, one of those guys should be on the waivers for you.

dont sweat your kicker too much, just make sure you have a guy on a team. after that, they are all essentially the same.

Here's my $$ league squad, feel like I'm solid but a little weak at WR, need to watch the early waiver wire:

QB: Favre, Roethlisberger
RB: Mathews, S. Jackson, Moreno, Spiller
WR: S. Smith (NYG), TJ Houshmandzadeh, J. Knox, Berrian, Doucet
TE: Cooley, Miller
K: Bironas
DEF: San Diego

the qbs are really solid, when roethlisberger gets back you are gonna be hard pressed to pick between the two each week. same with TE.

good young talent at rb, it's by far your best position.

the wrs are a bit thin. smith and hoosh are serviceable, but you better hope berrian and favre start to connect, or knox steps up his game. i am not high on s.smith this year, but hopefully he can pull through for you, except against this skins of course.

is this a 12 team league?

I like this team a lot, especially if you happen to be in a keeper league. You have a lot of young talent. I'd be a little worried about LT stealing some of Greene's TDs but he's going to be solid, plus you have Stewart and Portis on the bench and they could both be starters in most leagues.
