Thoughts on my team

[jonmchugh]

Here is my fantasy team in the order I drafted them. Unfortunately I was not present for the first 2 picks but I got a pretty good team. I am in a 8 team league and we drafted 18 rounds. I got the last picks so most of my picks were back-to-back. Here we go:

1) DeAngelo Williams - HB (good pick I would've take him there)
2) Tom Brady - QB
3) Brandon Jacobs - HB
4) Greg Jennings - WR (originally they drafted Roddie White for me but I went with Jennings instead)
5) Dallas Clark - TE
6) Wes Welker - WR
7) Pittsburgh Defense (I f'ing hate the Steelers but what else can I say? Best defense in the league)
8) Chris Wells RB - (probably a stupid pick with Reggie Bush and some others on the board. Hopefully he gets better from his injury)
9) Derrik Ward - RB
10) Mark Sanchez - QB (not much else was left so I took a flyer on him)
11) Antonio Bryant - WR
12) Leon Washington - HB
13) Jamal Lewis - HB
14) David Akers - K
15) New England Defense (got a decent backup. will start NE D when we play Pittsburgh)
16) Devin Hester (good pick for late in the draft. think he's gonna have a big year with Cutler throwing to him)
17) Kevin Boss - TE
18) Josh Cribbs - WR (prolly could have picked him up as a free agent but nontheless a good pickup. he may even win the #2 or #3 WR spot this year.

QB - Tom Brady / Mark Sanchez
HB - DeAngelo Williams / Brandon Jacobs / Chris Wells / Derrik Ward / Leon Washington / Jamal Lewis
WR - Greg Jennings / Wes Welker / Antonio Bryant / Devin Hester / Josh Cribbs
TE - Dallas Clark / Kevin Boss
K - David Akers
Defense - Pittsburgh / New England

Overall, I think that HB is my best position and I think I'm weakest at WR. It all depends on how Hester does. I think Bryant was a steal getting him in the 11th round. Thoughts?? All input is considered. I was considering James Davis but I will pick him up as a FA if he does anything note-worthy.

anybody have any thoughts on my team??

Your wide recievers are dog crap. Everything else looks good

I think your receivers are all right. I would have kept Roddy over Jennings, but that is just my opinion. If Brady gets hurt you are screwed.

I really like your running back stable, tight ends, and defenses.

I've never played in a league with only 8 teams, so my opinion is based on a wild guess.

For an 8 team league, you should have better depth.

You have the best QB but there has to be a better backup than Sanchez out there.

Best defense.

Lots of injury concerns with your RBs.

WR depth a huge concern.

You can't go wrong with Brady, Welker and Jennings and the Steeler D but I think you took a few guys too high. Dallas Clark is nice but you could've got a comparable TE in the 7th or 8th round. Beanie at #8 is a reach but he's the popular sleeper pick this year. Think Sanchez was also about 4 rounds too early.

I think your WRs will be fine, Jennings and Welker should put up big numbers and Bryant is an adequate 3rd reciever.

Your team is basically relying on Jacobs to have an injury free season (which he has yet to have) and Beanie to be an every down back...Ward is a platoon back and will only get 10-12 carries a game.

thanks for all the input. I was thinking about putting the Steelers D on the block for a decent WR. BQ hasn't been taken yet do you think I should pick him up and drop Sanchez?

 

[Hurl Bruce]

Who else is there? Quinn isn't much different than Sanchez.
