Re: Official "Rate My Team" Thread

My apologies, it is a 10 team league with standard scoring.

Not bad for a 10 team league. I feel like your WR depth could be better though. You could drop one or two RBs (anyone but Hillis for different reasons) to pick up some potential. If DHB doesn't expand on last year (let alone just repeat last year) you're stuck with just Wayne as your only real back up... and, like you, I expect him to bounce back also but that's an iffy thing to bank on as much as you are here also.

Meanwhile, you're stacked at RB even with cutting two, and Royster's time is a huge question mark, Jenning's value takes a big drop as soon as week 2, and Redman's value is already dropping. Meanwhile you probably won't need to play any of them all year, and in a 10 team league there will be players to snag off waivers as the season goes on.

I hear you. I just told myself I was going to wait on WR this year since the pool is so deep.

These are the top available free agent WR in that league:



Plenty to pick and choose from if I need to.

Re: Official "Rate My Team" Thread

I'd pick up at least one (I'd probably do two, but it depends on the RBs that are still out there too). You've got 7 RBs and 3 are must start backs. Guys like Moore, Amendola and Wright have at least as much potential as DHB. Not a huge deal since we're talking about your bench, but I would be more comfortable with a little more balance.

Re: Official "Rate My Team" Thread

Seventh pick in an 8-team IDP that a buddy of mine put together... The scoring is, uh, odd to say the least. Notice the 2011 points scored by each player.

Basically, it's a 0.5-PPR league with QB's getting 0.5 points/completion and 6 points/TD. I think Brees scored about 60 points more than Brady (who scored the 2nd most points in 2011 based on this league's scoring). Needless to say, I was ecstatic to have him fall to me at 7.

Re: Official "Rate My Team" Thread

Sorry man. Eight team league with wacky scoring system... I doubt there's any way any of us can tell how well you did at the draft.

I'm in a crazy scoring league. I got my first back (Mathews) in the 4th round, and that's perfectly normal and probably won't be much of a steal. I don't even bother asking anyone else what they think about my drafts there bc they wouldn't know how to grade it.

RBs look a little weak for a 10 team league and Lance Moore and James Jones are way too inconsistent for my liking. There should be some receivers on the waiver wire that will be more productive than those 2.

Nice draft. You can probably get someone better than Blount for your bench in a 10 team league.

Not bad, Pack. I agree with Jones. You may just want him as your loan (offensive) Packer, but you'll never feel comfortable playing him. And as the only WR on your bench, I'd want a bit more security. Speaking of which, I'd drop the Cowboys for another WR.

I don't mind Moore. He always stepped up when one of the targets ahead of him got hurt. Now Meachem's gone so he should get more targets naturally. I do wish you had a stronger starter than him, but I wouldn't drop Moore unless there's a huge oversight with someone sitting on waivers (and even then you can drop the Boys and/or Jones before Moore).

Re: Official "Rate My Team" Thread

Nice draft. You can probably get someone better than Blount for your bench in a 10 team league.

Thanks, I just picked up Evan Royster. He put up some decent numbers towards the end of last season, and right now he's listed as the #1 on the Redskins depth chart. But I am fully aware that Mike Shanahan could change it up any second.

My hope is that week 1 RG3 puts up a sick game (like two throwing TDs, a rushing TD and 300 yards) and everyone thinks hes the next Cam Newton, and then I can trade him when his stock is really high.

EDIT: Just dropped Royster lol. Worried about what Shanahan will do with the RBs.

Picked up Jonathon Dwyer, put up good #'s in preseason and may get starting job eventually

The one player on my team that I was strongly considering moving is Ahmad Bradshaw(was late for my draft and the CPU picked him for me unfortunately)and I would possibly try to flip him for another WR, especially since right now there aren't any better options available.

That looks pretty good. I love your WRs. Even if Andre Johnson gets hurt, you've got great depth. PPR makes Sproles a deadly pick at RB and gives Helu some added value. How many teams are in the league?

Also bonuses for Percy Harvin and DeSean Jackson for both being return men. I had my chance at Devin Hester late in the draft but passed him up, lol.
