Nobody with any thoughts or opinions ?

QB's in both Leagues are shaky but could have either break out years or just average being 2700 yds passing and 15-20 TD's

Running Backs look pretty good but Jackson and Johnson are risks being that both O-Lines were some of the worst last year but either way those two are hard to pass up if available. Jackson 11-13 TD's 1200 yds Johnson 9TD's 950 yds.

Ryan Grant I think will surprise many this year but its all based on Aaron Rodgers performance if he's good then Grant is golden. Grant 14 TD's 1400 yds

Ive never like taking Jones-Drew or F. Taylor just because they share carries so much and you never know when to play them and when not to.

WR's be carefull with Boldin as you know he is not happy in Arizona and I could see him going down with some odd injury that limits his playing time so he can sit out until next year. If no injury 11 Td's 65 Rec 850 yds

Brandon Marshall is nice because Cutler barely has anyone else to throw to and the 3 game suspension tooken down to 1 is huge as well. He is a starter every week no matter who they are playing. 16 Td's 1500 yds 95 rec

C. Johnson risky but the upside will be huge this year. Kitna has looked great in Pre-Season and will throw him the ball alot 75-85 receptions. 9 Tds 80 rec 1100 yds

I look for both Moss' to struggle. Randy is gettin old and teams will be covering him like crazy. I think he will throw a fit half way through the season after the partiots are 4-4. Santana who really knows but I think he will be a good #3 WR. Randy 13 tds 55 rec 1050 yds Satana 8 tds 63 rec 900 yds

T.O. is T.O. if they are winning then he is putting up great numbers. I think they will win this year and should be another year just like last year numbers wise for him. 13 tds 75 rec 1200yds

Good pick up with Alge Crumpler. He seems to be the forgotten Tight End of many drafts but with Vince Youg being a mobile QB Crumpler should get alot of receptions.

Kickers are kickers of course

Green bay D has a bunch of no names but with Rodgers being back there I look for alot of teams to be rushing him alot and he will make mistakes giving your D more playing time than most. Could be good could be bad.

A little different with the bears though. Kyle Orton is not a big play QB and likes to manage the game as well as eat up alot of clock. Good for your D.


Your backups are sketchy especially in the 10 team league, what are going to do during bye weeks? With the guys you got no way you can win when your big players have bye weeks.

MinnieFin I agree with some of what you say. Depth in the 10 teamer is a problem I may need to address, unfortunetly I only got to draft 8 rounds then had to leave for a family emergency with my little guy so I had them just take best available based on a draft list I was using for reference and fill out my roster.

I'll disagree on the QB's, I think all 3 have potential for break out years and if you look at matchups each week you should be able to get some consistent performance. I think it is more likely that QB's like Dreek Anderson are the disappointments. Outside Brady/Manning/Romo/Brees I don't know if anyone is a sure thing at QB.

On the RB's Jackson to me will be fine, look at the numbers he put up the last 5 or 6 games last year compared to Peterson who everyone loves. Sjax out performed him even with a patchwork line. As far as a back splitting time, not many that aren't these days and Jones-Drew is the goal line back and a threat catching the ball. Behond Barber III he is the best RB in a dual back system fantasy wise. Grant is actually the guy that worries me the most of my starting RB's.

Randy is gettin old and teams will be covering him like crazy.

Pretty funny, did he suddenly age 5 years over the winter ? Do I expect last years numbers, no, but 1400 yards and 15 or 16 TD's is about the floor if he stays healthy.
