What To Do, What To Do?

My Football team just did a Yahoo fantasy draft, nothing up for grabs except bragging rights. I, however, want bragging rights and am not entirely comfortable with my team as it is. 18 team league with IDPs - 2 DB, 1 D, 1 LB, 1 DL (picked 8th overall):

QB - Kevin Kolb
Jason Campbell

RB - Frank Gore
Pierre Thomas
Fred Jackson
Justin Forsett

WR - Marques Colston
Hakeem Nicks
Kenny Britt
Mike Williams (TB)
James Jones
Earl Bennett
Legedu Naanee

TE - Zach Miller (Oak)
Rob Gronkowski (NE)

D - Oakland

IDPs

DB - Dashon Goldson
Aqib Talib

DL - Mario Williams
Antwan Odom (Bench)

LB - Demarcus Ware
Lamarr Woodley
Karlos Dansby (Bench)

I really don't trust my runningback depth and there's a lack of waiver wire gold.

In an 18 team league there really isn't much you can do, the draft is so important. The only way to really change your complexion of your team is to trade.

But I wouldn't be too worried about your team. Your running backs are fine. Gore and Thomas will be regular cogs. Fred Jackson should be back and make noise. And Forsett is slated to start the season as the starter.

Your recievers are filled with upside. Hopefully Williams, Hicks or even Colston have a break out year. If you are really worried about your backs. Wait till one of those three guys have a stellar 1st game and trade them when they are high. (I know this is the hardest thing to do.

Remember buy low, sell high. Some of the cheaper running backs out there right now are Portis, M Bush (with his questionable injury). You have to risk on someone to make a steal.

Ofcourse nowadays with all the morons playing fantasy football, you might be able to hose someone.

I agree with PuRock. In an 18-team league, there isn't much you can really do but your team is pretty darn good. Frankly, I'm surprised you got some of the players you picked up. The only players on your team I don't feel have much upside are Jackson, Bennett and Gronkowski but you have more than enough quality options at those positions to be competitive.
