After 4 straight years with my team in the title game (winning two of them), we've decided to change the league. We're switching to a dynasty format, but there's a catch. Rather than just diving in with the teams we currently have, we're having a transition year so that owners can build their team this year with a dynasty in mind going forward. So the dynasty won't start till next year. Still, even this year we're doing something different. In the past we've kept 4 players at any position. This year we're keeping 6 players, but just one player per position.
With that in mind, here are my keepers, with their rank at said position, pulled from a recently updated fantasy site:
#1 RB LaDainian Tomlinson
#1 WR Steve Smith
#6 QB Donovan McNabb
#6 TE Kellen Winslow
#6 DEF Eagles
#2 K Nate Kaeding
For reference, it's a 10 team league. I'm pretty pleased with this group, but I'm going to be working the phones up to the draft trying to improve them, or at least get better draft picks. I have some pretty tradable assets. Some of my other players that other teams might have interest in keeping (once I trade them to them), along with their position rank:
#5 RB Shaun Alexander
#5 WR Terrell Owens
#6 WR Reggie Wayne
#12 WR Andre Johnson
#12 QB Jake Delhomme
#12 TE LJ Smith
#11 DEF Steelers
I'm really hoping to improve my Defensive keeper and/or snag a high draft pick with Alexander. Considering that he will be a top 3 pick in the draft otherwise, possibly the #1 overall, I ought to be able to trade him for a low first round draft pick at least. The other guys, since I'm losing them for nothing if I don't trade them, really any draft picks I get back is better than nothing!
I'm picking 9th in the draft. In addition to all of my own picks, I have the fifth pick of rounds 2 and 3 (from trading Steven Jackson last year for Steve Smith and the picks). If I can adds some more picks, I should be set up nicely for a draft heading into a Dynasty league.
