    I'm in BIG trouble this week with my local fantasy football team.

    Vick, Garcia, Stephen Davis, and Garrison Hearst are all on my team and all have byes this week.:(

    I was so desperate for a QB that I picked up (I think I got him) Akilli Smith from the free agency list.:( My only other options at QB are Gus Frerotte and Steve Beuerlein. Did I mention that you must start 2 QBs??:( :(

    At any rate, I will probably go with this line-up:

    QB - Smith, Beuerlein
    RB - Olandis Gary, William Green (yikes!)
    WR - Jimmy Smith, Rod Smith, Quincy Morgan
    TE - Shannon Sharpe
    PK - viniatieri
    DEF - Broncos

    I can smell a 50 point week coming on! Wooo!

    Manny, Manny, Manny, what the hell is that lineup your throwing out there. That might be one of the worst I've seen. I wouldn't be suprised if your pk and def got most of your points. During my draft, I didn't realize that alot of my players and their backups had the same bye week. I think I'm screwed on week 8.

    I know, I know. There are 9 other guys in our league and we have to have 23 players on the roster. As a result, there is just not anyone else out there to pick up.

    And I too had no idea about byes when it came to drafting players. I wish that the NFL would do away with the byes now that they have an even number of teams.

    I am sure that fantasy football owners would welcome that change.

    QB: Brady over Brunell and Chandler
    K: Andersen over Brown
    D: Ravens over Falcons
    ST: Miami over NE

    My league starts 5 "skills," which explains why I have 9 WRs and 2 RBs (only 10 are allowed; I need to make a cut by Sunday):

    Starters:
    Staley
    Tim Brown
    Freeman
    D Jackson
    Kennison or Bradford

    Bench:
    Harrison
    Owens
    Q Ismail
    Zereoue
    McCareins (who'll probably get cut Sunday)

    It's a scoring-only, 16-team, dynasty league in its 13th year. With 160 skills and 48 QBs on rosters, the free agent pool has big "CAUTION: NO DIVING" signs posted. My opponent this week has Garcia, Matthews and Wuerffel as QBs; my opponent last week started Ray Lucas over Gannon and Stewart.

    One more thing: I designed that website; comments would be appreciated. Netscape 4 not recommended.

    I would go with McCaffrey because of the Monday Night Factor.

    I'm personally starting Andre Davis over Ed McCaffrey this week. I'm hoping I chose right because Easy Ed has done jack up to this point...

    I'm debating between Jim Miller, Steve McNair, and Brian Griese. Since I have to start 2, I'm going with Brian Griese and Jim Miller (it'll be a shootout with the Bills).
