My Team

[Natural Born Hitters]

TQB = Ravens
RB = Cedric Benson
RB = LeSean McCoy
WR = Calvin Johnson
WR = Anquan Boldin

K = Sebastian Janikowski

Bench = T.J. Houshmandzadeh (WR), Willis McGahee (RB), Dolphins TQB, Bengals D/ST, Cadillac Williams (RB), Kevin Walter (WR), Fred Davis (TE), Billy Cundif (K)

This was my first time doing a draft for FF. What do you all think?

Not to bad for a first timer and a 12 team draft. Your starters are pretty decent. Do you know if your league is a point per reception league?

Benson put together a monster year last year, and people are sleeping on him this year. If this is a ppr league, McCoy is a great pickup. Boldin and Calvin Johnson will pair nicely. Hopefully both can stay healthy.

Your weakest link is your bench. I like Cadillac Williams. Housh isn't half bad either.

One of the rookie mistakes you made is drafting two kickers. You should never have two kickers on the roster at one timee. There is no reason. I would drop one and pick up a RB or WR from FA.

Also,

Love Finley as your TE, Boldin as a #2 WR and the San Fran D is beastly. You might want to think even about dumping the Bengals D for better depth as well. San Fran is playing in the NFC west and should be a great start for most of the season.

Mccoy is bad news. Don't trust the guy. Benson is undervalued in a lot of leagues. He was a stud for me last year. Isn't flashy but he gets the job done. Boldin will really surprise a lot of people this year. He is too talented and he will get the ball a lot in baltimore. And Calvin is going to go crazy

I have mixed feelings about McCoy. One day I hear good things the next bad. He keeps bobbing in my draft rankings.

In a ppr league, he's a lot more stable pick though.

Thanks, I dropped John Kasay and picked up Mario Manningham.

Well now I got 2 Ravens receivers on my team. Should I continue to start Boldin for the jets game or have someone else start?

Q is the best WR you have not named Megatron. I'd start him.

[AwakenTheDemon]

There's no reason not to start Boldin, unless it's his bye week of course. Even against the Jets, he's the best option over what you have on your bench.

call me crazy.. but housh would be going against someone not named revis (whom locks alot of WR's down)sooo how would that work

I have to get this off my chest, what in the world is going on in the fantasy football world.

I've always had a competitive $100 money league. This year we let in three new people who were willing to pay and said they knew the game (friends).

I had the 9th draft pick (usually the pick I hate 8-10). I ended up with MJD and M Turner (2nd round). How the hell does that happen? It's not suppose to. I should be happy, but I am more upset because I would prefer a competitive league.

Has the idea of a competitive league disappeared? With too many people losing interested after starting, people just overall uneducated about fantasy football?

In short, I take this game to seriously.

I like McCoy as a player, it's Andy Reid who I don't trust to run the ball enough to make him a more valuable RB

[Natural Born Hitters]

I was thinking of starting Kevin Walter, who should I bench? Thanks.
