Looks pretty good to me. Here's a breakdown per position.

QB - Couldn't ask for a better #1 and #2 on a FF team. I like the flyer you took on Sanchez b/c if he pans out, which I think is 50/50, then you have good trade bait in Rodgers.

RB - SJAX has the easiest schedule this year and pretty much is the only consistent option in STL. If he stays healthy he's a lock for being a top RB this year. I'm not a big fan of LenDale since he splits time but he's a goal line back which is always nice to have. To me Bush is soft but you can't say he doesn't have the possibility to flourish in the Saints high powered offense, especially coming out of the back field. I like Mendenhall as long as he doesn't have any set backs from his injury last year. Washington is a typical back-up.

WR - This is probably your weakest position, but it could be alot worse. I like Boldin but he contends with Fitzy every week. Boldin will get his for sure but I really wouldn't count on him to post #1 WR numbers every week. I don't like Marshall at all, especially with the departure of Cutler. He has the skill set to be an amazing WR but he has character issues and issues with the organization. I also have Berrian on my radar b/c he's a speed guy and the #1 option in Minny. Take all that and add in Favre (although I despise him for coming back) and you have a great chance to get excellent production every week. Branch and Holt are washed up IMHO but still serviceable during bye weeks. Branch contends with TJ and Holt is just old.

TE - I like Shockey b/c he plays for the Saints. The only concern with him is, he was hurt last year and he fumbled alot. If he cures that then he should be fine.

K - Longwell has a leg like no other and with an improved offense he should get in FG range quite a bit.

D/ST - Philadelphia has always been towards the top in defense and I don't see any reason they would fall from that category.

Best of luck in your league. I will post my team after my draft on August 30th.

Thanks for the analysis. Yeah I wasn't keen on Marshall but where I got him I thought I would take the chance. Also its a ppr league so thats why I picked up guys like Marshall, Boldin, Bush, and Washington. Looking back on it I wish I had another quality RB and a better qb. I didn't realize it but both Rodgers and Brees have by weeks on the 5th week of the season....oops. Guess that week is a lose for me. But all in all I was pretty happy with the outcome.

No problem. Didn't realize it was a PPR league. Since that's the case you WR's are pretty solid as long as Marshall performs well. He's by no means a risk but a player you want to watch who he is matched up against as far as DB's and CB's go. When he had Cutler you really didn't have to worry about that b/c Cutler was alot better than what they have now. Another quality back sure wouldn't hurt but in a PPR league Bush is almost perfect barring any significant injuries. As far as your QB situation goes, you don't get much better than Brees. I would try and trade Rodgers for a QB with a different bye week. I personally put alot of stock into Rodgers b/c they will have to throw to win. I don't trust Green Bays running game at all. Grant just isn't consistent enough to say running the ball is the Packers bread and butter. Plus they play the Lions twice which always nice. I know other than the Lions their division is pretty rough, but the Vikings pass defense can be beaten.

You should be fine. Pull off some trades and work the wire.

Do the other guys in your league have downs syndrome? Your team is stacked

Drew Brees is ALWAYS the number one guy you wanna get. Tom Brady is nice too when he is not hurt:chuckles: Last year the guy that had Brees in my league pretty much single handedly carried his team to wins. I will have to look at some of the old team I had. One year I had Tom Brady AND Randy Moss and that was the year Randy Moss set a record:chuckles:

lol yeah I took Brady as my first pick last year. That took me to dead last place. Last year was horrible for me.
