    This is a yahoo custom league with 10 teams, a little more geared toward QB's and WR's than normal leagues. Receivers get a point per reception, and QB's get a point per completion, and -.5 per incompletion I believe.

    How many of each position do you start?

    I would possibly drop Vince because now he seems like he will ride the pine behind Collins and Volek. Actually Favre may be a bust too. See if Simms or Rivers is still in the pool, they have lots of upside.


    I don't think Lendale will start so you may need to find a RB who will play. Lundy is a good sleeper pick with news that DD may sit out the year. Mike Anderson may get a lot of PT if Lewis is injured or is not producing.

    You WR seem solid. How did you not get one fo the top 7.Just curious.

    TE- Solid
    DEF- Solid, but I would drop Washington to pick up another position player. Chances are you will start CHI all year except during the bye week so saving that defense is a waste. You can drop your sorriest position player that week and fill your hole at defense.

    Drop Min def and drop your second kicker and pick up some 2nd string RB's to use as trade bait when the starter goes down.

    The starting roster has one QB, 2 RBs, 2 WRs, 1 TE, I K, I DEF and 1 either WR/TE option. I checked the QBs and Simms and Rivers are both gone, so is Mike Anderson. Oh well, I'll start scrounging for whatever's left.


    thanks for the input bigsherv

    That's good... at least now there's a thread for me to bump when Owens comes close to having more catches than Jones and Stallworth combined. :)

    2 starting kickers in this league ... I may drop Minny's defense for a RB though, possibly Lundy. 2 defenses also start though, so I'm hesitant to not give myself an option for when one of my other two defenses has a good offensive opponent. That, and Minny's in a poor division.

    League 1 (keeper league) starts 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 K & 1 Def. Typical scoring, but QB's get 6 pts per td and only -1 for all turnovers. I had the #6 draft slot.

    Pick Position Players
    5.06 QB Michael Vick
    9.06 QB Brett Farve
    1.06 RB Ronnie Brown
    4.07 RB Warrick Dunn
    5.06 RB Frank Gore
    10.07 RB Mike Bell
    2.07 WR Larry Fitzgerald
    3.06 WR Randy Moss
    7.06 WR Matt Jones
    8.07 TE L.J.Smith
    11.06 TE Heath Miller
    12.07 K Nate Kaeding
    13.06 DEF Miami

    I also picked up D.Branch off waivers (dropped my kicker). When the season starts I can either keep Branch or Miller.

    League 2 (redraft league) starts 1 QB, 1 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex, 1 K & 1 Def (so we can run the WCOFF and only start 1 RB). Typical scoring, but QB's get 4 pts per td and -2 for all turnovers. WR's and TE's get 1/2 a PPR. I had the #2 draft slot.

    Pick Position Players
    6.11 QB Marc Bulger
    9.02 QB Aaron Brooks
    1.02 RB Shaun Alexander
    5.02 RB Clinton Portis
    11.02 RB T.J.Duckett
    13.02 RB Maurice Morris
    2.11 WR Larry Fitzgerald
    3.02 WR Reggie Wayne
    4.11 WR Donald Driver
    10.11 WR Marc Clayton (Ravens)
    7.02 TE L.J.Smith
    8.11 TE Ben Watson
    14.11 K Nate Kaeding
    12.11 DEF Miami

    How did I do?

    Won't Happen, I guarantee it. Quote me all you want, hell put it in your sig.

    TO is a menace and don't think the Cowboys don't already know it.

    You don't need 2 DST. You have the Bucs, that is more than suffiecient. Also, McAllister imo will not be worth much at all this season. Look for MBell or Lundy as FA pickups. Also, you do not need 3 QB's, nor do you need 2 TE with Gates as your starter. You need to look for somw WR's on waivers, or package some stuff together, perhaps Hilton and the Cowboys, for a WR.
