Titus Young and Matt Prater are good picks. Same with Schaub!

Pretty good for a first timer. The fact that you got McCoy at 10 leads me to believe that most of the other people in your league are newbies as well.

There was a run on QBs. I ended up with Manning unfortunately, but think I got a good backup in Schaub. Thank god Shady fell to me.

I think my WR could use some work, but I essentially have an extra receiver in Gronkowski

PPR or not, Shady never falls to the 10th unless your half your league is on auto draft or just don't know what they're doing.
Unless it's one of those black sheep leagues the like to draft "differently".

Fortunately for you you got him 10th overall. Sproles wont do much unless your league is PPR, IDK how Martin will do, Redman looks like he will lose his job soon, Gronk will be a stud as usual but and your WR's are hit or miss.

I would start Doug Martin over Darren Sproles unless you are in a PPR league.

Well it seems I got incredibly lucky with Shady. I'm not going to complain though.

The league is a PPR, which is why I went with Sproles. I got Doug Martin as a late sleeper, and Redman was one of my last picks since he was BPA.

I want a better WR, but I'm kind of looking at Gronkowski and Green as my "WRs" while Bowe can act more as my "TE". I'm out scouting for other receivers, but nothing out there right now.

Every time I see Redman's name I cringe. I drafted him in the 5th round in the ESPN league. This was back when it looked like he was the main man and could have a full season boat load. Then he pulled his groin, then the Steelers activated Mendenhall off PUP, then he tweaks his ankle.

Retrospectively, I could have had Hillis, Decker, or Torrey. Ugh.

Redman is the first one off of my team in the event someone blows up. I have first shot at the waiver wire if I need to pick someone up. There are other options, but I thought he was best for now.

First few weeks are usually the best for waiver wire pick ups. So choose wisely. You could end up with a stud surprise.

D'oh!

Part of the reason why I hate drafting early. So much can change in four weeks of PS & TC.

[Ravens<3]

I think it looks good. Your 3 main Wrs have alot of upside. Can't go wrong with Shady. Peyton is a little risky. Martin will be really good.

[bauer77]

Really good draft imo. Both your TE's are good, RB's are really good simply because of McCoy. Not to mention Martin and Sproles. You may wanna get someone better than Redman, like people have said. Schaub was a nice pickup in case something happens with Manning.

[Yatagarasu]

Yeah, your league is filled with noobs because there's no way Lesean McCoy drops to 10, and AJ Green drop to 30 along. unless QBs are valued so high that a stud RB can't save your team from the full madness of Brees, Brady, and Company. When Brady scores 60 points a game, you know they need to be nerfed.

[Free Agent]

Martin may be a sleeper, but I'd start him this week. He's going up against a pretty poor Panthers run defense.

Well, made some changes already.

Dropped Isaac Redman for Kenny Britt.
Dropped Kyle Rudolph for Jacquizz Rodgers.

Is Rodgers going to have more carries this year?

[rmw10]

He's expected to be the 3rd down RB. They're molding him like Sproles, which will be nice for a PPR league. Rudolph didn't really matter since I have Gronk, so I figured why not.
