Just drafted my fantasy team on yahoo. There's 8 other teams. So tell me what ya think...

QB's: Peyton Manning, Chad Pennington

RB's: Julius Jones, Travis Henry, and Marshall Faulk

WR's: Andre Johnson, Lee Evans, Anquan Boldin, and Keenan McCardell

TE's: Jason Witten, and Dallas Clark

Kickers: Nate Kaeding, and John Kasay

Defense: Pittsburgh and Buffalo

I think its a winner....

I think you need RB and WR help

Re: Whaddyathink boys....

Agreed.

And Peyton's worth is inflated. No way he repeats last years perfomrance.

Re: Whaddyathink boys....

Peyton's still the best QB by far. I don't know why anyone would think he's going to plummet

[DraftBoy]

Re: Whaddyathink boys....

I think a good #2 WR might be a good idea, and a lesser known RB who may be a starter like LeBrandon Toefield from JAX

Re: Whaddyathink boys....

i actually like your wrs.. but with the wrs you got, i would assume you went heavy on RBs.. with only 8 other teams.. it seems that your rbs should be alot better.. jones has had half of a good season, but now with drew there.. no telling if he will be worth a ****.. henry is not even going to be a starter from all indications, no matter where he ends up, and faulk is over the hill and playing second fiddle to steven jackson.

Re: Whaddyathink boys....

Two of your RBs are backups or splitting time. Jones isn't a shoe-in as a 1400 yard back either.

The WRs could have a huge upside, but they currently aren't sure-fire #1's on their own teams- (except for AJ)


Peyton is a very good choice. Even if he drops off by 10-15 TDs- he's still the top guy in the league.

Re: Whaddyathink boys....

i'm saying it's obvious you drafted Peyton with your first pick. I recommend using him as bait for a decent trade.

You could probably get a damn good 2nd round RB and a 4th round WR for Manning. You can pick up other great QBs off FA if you're in a small league. McNair is in some of the best shape of his life. Warner and Losman could also prove to be great late choices.

Re: Whaddyathink boys....

If you can since MANNING never gets injured our even touched, I would trade Pennington right away for a WR, or RB, to a team that really needs a #1 QB...

Would be a good safe move

Re: Whaddyathink boys....

QB's: Peyton Manning, Chad Pennington--- Looks like drafting Manning cost you bigtime. I assume you took him in the top 3 becaus ethe next best player is Johnson...

RB's: Julius Jones, Travis Henry, and Marshall Faulk-- *****ty. This is why you will lose. Julius should be a good #2. But most leagues RB's are bread & butter..

WR's: Andre Johnson, Lee Evans, Anquan Boldin, and Keenan McCardell Andre Johnson reminds me of Moulds. Because he is my sleeper this year i think your WR's arent that bad. Non homer says Evans your #2 wr? Risky..

TE's: Jason Witten, and Dallas Clark Nice but why get a backup TE and not a better #3 RB? Did you have a draft strategy???

Kickers: Nate Kaeding, and John Kasay-- Who cares. Smart to wait till the end for kickers and looks like ya did..

Defense: Pittsburgh and Buffalo Nice. I think Pitt will miss Bell some and the secondary could be suspect. Did you reach on a defense? 2 of the top 4 defenses??? Why???

I will avoid Manning & Cullpepper this year. I'd rather have Delhomme Palmer or Carr and have a upgraded RB & WR... Just MHO... Good luck man.
*And here's to Evans breaking out... /cheers

No way any team in that league would consider Pennington a upgrade as their #1!!! There are about 10 better QB's. And unless some owner didn't even take his first QB before owners started taking #2's then who would want Chad as a #1??? Id trade Dallas Clark or Witten And one of the defenses and package a WR or a RB for a better WR or RB..

Re: Whaddyathink boys....

well, your QB's and defense are pretty good....

[Bert102176]

Re: Whaddyathink boys....

well Faulk will be sharing time with Jackson now who knows about Henry so I would strongly look at RB's

[Bert102176]

Re: Whaddyathink boys....

as for fantasy Defenses I think Minn will be a top D this year, and perhaps even better then the Bills D I think our D will be ranked between 10th and 17th this year

Re: Whaddyathink boys....

Thanks for the advice guys, and thanks for all of your honesty. My rb's is surely my crutch. I guess, the way I see it, Julius Jones will get at least 1100 yards and 10tds, and TH will start w/ Tenn or Jags, and will get at least 1000 yds, and 8td's. Add that together and I'll have a shade under 2000 rushing yds, and about 18tds. My wr's are good, not great. Andre Johnson is gonna break out this year, Boldin will flourish w/ a viable qb, and Lee Evans will be a top notch wr this year. You gotta love my te's. Whitten is a Todd Heap type TE, and could really be a strong go-to-guy for Drew (he does love to throw to te's---Ben Coates in ne), and Dallas Clark gets to be the #1 TE in Indy's offense w/ the departure of Pollard, and will at least catch 8 or 9 td's.

My de is great. How can you top getting Pitt and The Bills dee.

I do have ideas on ways to acquire a better rb, but none of those ideas involve trading Manning....

Thanks guys..
