I just had my last draft before the season starts (I have one draft left, but that is a defense-only league), wondering what everyone thinks of my teams:

TEAM #1 (Auction Draft - $200 Salary)

STARTERS
QB - Kevin Kolb - $4
RB - Rashard Mendenhall - $40
RB - Ryan Matthews - $32
RB/WR - Shonn Greene - $33
WR - Steve Smith CAR - $20
WR - Steve Smith NYG - $9
TE - Jermichael Finley - $9
D/ST - Bengals - $1
K - David Akers - $1

BENCH
QB - Chad Henne - $3
RB - Matt Forte - $17
RB - LaDainian Tomlinson - $7
RB - Thomas Jones - $4
WR - Dwayne Bowe - $10
WR - Pierre Garcon - $7
WR - Jacoby Jones - $3

This is by far my favorite team out of all my teams (and in my biggest money league). Only downside is my QB situation, but I am looking at moving D-Bo for Eli Manning (in which case I would get rid of Henne and pick up another WR off the wire). Besides that, looks VERY solid to me, with a lot of depth (potential trade bait as the season progresses).

TEAM #2 (Snake Draft - #2 Pick)

STARTERS
QB - Matthew Stafford
RB - Adrian Peterson
RB - Pierre Thomas
RB/WR - CJ Spiller
WR - Greg Jennings
WR - Chad Ochocinco
TE - Dallas Clark
D/ST - Chargers
K - Jay Feely

BENCH
QB - Ben Roethlisberger
RB - Ricky Williams
RB - Justin Forsett
RB - Michael Bush
WR - Mike Sims-Walker
WR - Jeremy Maclin
WR - Devin Aromashodu

Another solid draft, EXCEPT in the QB department. It ended up being one of those "I can wait a few picks to get a solid QB", except every time I was ready to pick a QB, they would be taken out from under me. Oh well! I am actually working on a trade already to get Carson Palmer as my starter, probably costing me either Ocho or Sims-Walker in the process (but I may get Austin Collie in return).

TEAM #3 (Snake Draft - #2 Pick AGAIN!)

STARTERS
QB - Tom Brady
RB - Adrian Peterson
RB - Jahvid Best
RB/WR - CJ Spiller
WR - Miles Austin
WR - Pierre Garcon
TE - Chris Cooley
D/ST - Texans
K - Ryan Longwell

BENCH
QB - Mark Sanchez
RB - Darren McFadden
RB - Laurence Maroney
WR - TJ Houshmandzadeh
WR - Jacoby Jones
WR - Josh Cribbs
TE - Kevin Boss

This was a 12-team league (the other two were 10-team), so I had to dig a little bit deeper this time around. The team still feels pretty solid (at least the starters do), but the bench isn't as deep as I would like. I picked Housh hoping that he goes to a team with a great QB and that I will look like a genius for picking him up. And decided to go with a QB with my 2nd pick, didn't want to wait again! Let me know what you think!

I like team 2 best.
Team 1 seems to be loaded in certain positions, but lacking in others. Some of the starters are guys that I'm worrying about, though.
Team 2 is pretty cool. I don't think your QB situation is bad at all. I'm expecting Stafford to play well this year, maybe not a starter in a 10-team league, but who knows. Besides, he only needs to start five games for you. Big Ben will carry most of that weight and that's not a terrible thing. You have some very strong depth, but it always worries me when a team only has one TE.
Team 3 has a lot of starting talent, but the bench is where my worries are. I'm not really impressed with any of the bench players unless you're getting points for kick/punt returns, in which case you need to move Cribbs to a starting position. If I was in control of any of these teams, I'd be active in the trade market. Everyone has a different set of strategies, though. Good luck and have fun. smile.gif

Yeah, my plan was to have Big Ben come in and be my starter once he is reinstated (may go that route with Team 1 as well, nobody picked him up in that league). I usually always run 1 high-end TE and usually never draft a second one, since for the most part it is just that fill-in bye week guy anyways, and if I get lucky and draft a stud WR/RB in the late rounds, I could always trade them away to upgrade the team as a whole, and just grab whoever is available on the wire for a bye week TE (while getting a TE with trade value as your #2 usually never happens). As for the last team, that is more of a fun league and I forgot it was 12-teams (and not 10) so didn't factor in that I would have to dig deeper for my picks in that one. Really hoping that Housh goes to a team that will use him!

For that many teams in those leagues, they don't look that bad to me! As for having Kolb on the first team, I think he has a great season this year!!! And you got Ricky Williams, a big sleeper!! He will have a 1,000 yard season. IMO cool.gif

Hopefully you are right on both of those fronts, then I should have a pretty good fantasy season!
