How team 9 was able to land both michael turner and matt forte is beyond me. I have him winning the league easily if those two can play to their ability.

My rankings: 9, 4, 7, 8, 11, 6, 5, 2, 3, 12, 10, 1

RB - Adrian Peterson
RB - Willis McGahee
TE - Kellen Winslow
Flex - Braylon Edwards
K - David Akers
DEF - Chicago
IDP's - Brian Urlacher, Adrian Wilson, A.J. Hawk

Pretty solid team but I'm worried about McGahee getting solid time w/ all the competition and Braylon "whoops i dropped the ball" edwards doing what he does best.

Team 2

QB - Kurt Warner
WR - Andre Johnson
WR - Laveranues Coles
RB - Frank Gore
RB - Pierre Thomas
TE - Dallas Clark
Flex - Cedric Benson
K - Kris Brown
DEF - Philadelphia
IDP's - James Harrison, Troy Polamalu, Trent Cole

I like Coles upside and pierre thomas is going to be hot this year. Solid defensive players.

Team 3

QB - Tom Brady
WR - Roy Williams
WR - Lee Evans
RB - Brandon Jacobs
RB - Larry Johnson
TE - Owen Daniels
Flex - Joseph Addai
K - Robbie Gould
DEF - Minnesota
IDP's - Julius Peppers, Paul Posluzny, Nate Clements

And here's a story about about a man named brady. you can't go wrong with him, even though roy didn't look to hot this year he will understand the offense better and get more passes since the drama queen left. Larry Johnson I'm not to high on but with Cassel their he will do good as a 2nd RB.

Team 4

QB - Aaron Rodgers
WR - Larry Fitzgerald
WR - Brandon Marshall
RB - Steven Jackson
RB - Kevin Smith
TE - John Carlson
Flex - Jonathan Stewart
K - Rob Bironas
DEF - San Diego
IDP's - Mario Williams, Jon Beason, Brandon Meriweather

Brandon Marshall I had him pretty low on my list because of his dissatisfaction and how he gets suspended but you know he will perform if hes up to it.

Team 5

QB - Matt Ryan
WR - T.J. Houshmandzadeh
WR - Wes Welker
RB - Steve Slaton
RB - Ryan Grant
TE - Heath Miller
Flex - Bernard Berrian
K - Stephen Gostkowski
DEF - Baltimore
IDP's - Osi Umenyiora, Ed Reed, Charles Tillman

The Wr's are okay you could improve on this one but the rest of year team seems good.
Team 6

QB - Tony Romo
WR - Terrell Owens
WR - Santana Moss
RB - Ladainian Tomlinson
RB - Reggie Bush
TE - Jeremy Shockey
Flex - Felix Jones
K - Ryan Longwell
DEF - Dallas
IDP's - DeMarcus Ware, Antonio Cromartie, Albert Haynesworth

Nice team I would have picked this team to win but LT and Reggie are injury prone, hopefully you have solid back ups.

Team 7

QB - Drew Brees
WR - Anquan Boldin
WR - Santonio Holmes
RB - Chris Johnson
RB - Marion Barber
TE - Dustin Keller
Flex - Willie Parker
K - Mason Crosby
DEF - Pittsburgh
IDP's - Jared Allen, Bob Sanders, D.J. Williams

Nice solid team, hopefully barber puts up some of his old numbers with the return of the RBBC.

Team 8

QB - Philip Rivers
WR - Randy Moss
WR - Calvin Johnson
RB - Derrick Ward
RB - LenDale White
TE - Tony Gonzalez
Flex - Chad Ochocinco
K - Neil Rackers
DEF - Green Bay
IDP's - Patrick Willis, Antoine Winfield, Terrell Suggs

Nice team but you don't have a solid RB. Went WR WR style but hopefully you have running backs that have potential on your bench

Team 9
Winner!
QB - Donovan McNabb
WR - Marques Colston
WR - Hines Ward
RB - Michael Turner
RB - Matt Forte
TE - Antonio Gates
Flex - Rashard Mendenhall
K - Jason Elam
DEF - New England
IDP's - Jonathan Vilma, Eric Weddle, Lance Briggs

This is the 4th time I switched my mind on who will win, I should have looked at the entire list lol. Solid RB's, Nice WR, TE, and QB, Go mcnabb!


Team 10

QB - Ben Roethlisberger
WR - Vincent Jackson
WR - Devin Hester
RB - Maurice Jones-Drew
RB - Clinton Portis
TE - Jason Witten
Flex - Thomas Jones
K - Jeff Reed
DEF - Miami
IDP's - LaMarr Woodley, Michael Griffin, and Justin Tuck

Pretty nice team but no true #1 receiver though hester has a huge upside.

Team 11

QB - Jay Cutler
WR - Steve Smith
WR - Dwayne Bowe
RB - Brian Westbrook
RB - Ronnie Brown
TE - Greg Olsen
Flex - Jamal Lewis
K - Nate Kaeding
DEF - Tennessee
IDP's - DeMeco Ryans, Gibril Wilson, John Abraham

Hope you handcuff westbrook, but nice team, I have cutler as well and hope he can produce QB1 numbers with his new team.

Team 12

QB - Matt Schaub
WR - Greg Jennings
WR - Roddy White
RB - Deangelo Williams
RB - Darren McFadden
TE - Chris Cooley
Flex - Knowshon Moreno
K - Nick Folk
DEF - New York Giants
IDP's - Jerod Mayo, Oshiomogho Atogwe, Aaron Kampman


Solid WR's and I like the potential of ur number 2 and 3 RB this team can make a run to be the winner if they produce.

Really like teams 4,7,9 to have solid years.

I don't do IDP leagues so my reviews aren't looking at them. I like team 4 to win it all though.

Thanks for posting on mine.

I think 9 and 12 will be good. maybe the team with calvin and randy, but they are weak at rb. thanks for the help with mine on the calvin and moss thing earlier. You didn't see that I also have Tomlinson who i kept as my keeper. so i have lt and grant as my 2 st rbs. thanks again.

Thanks a lot for the help on mine.

In my opinion, Team 4 and Team 7 have the most talent and upside. I think they are the most well-rounded teams.

I love team 4. I also like team 9 but I think team four has great balance. I can't really find any way to criticize that group.

My favorite is Team 12. I predict a big year from Schaub if he can stay healthy. Jennings and Roddy White are consistant solid WR1. DeAngelo is still an RB1 but hes being overvalued by going in the first round. I don't think we'll see last years production with Jstew now having a full year under his belt. The sky is the limit for Darren McFadden, it just depends how they feature him and if Oakland doesn't get behind on every week to abandon the run game.
