What's worse than the Lions?

Postby Tenacious D-Store » Sun Jul 19, 2009 4:22 pm

It's my Fantasy Football Keeper Team. A team so bad I can't even find 5 players worth keeping. Here's what I'm thinking so far... (below are rosters and offensive scoring)

QB Jay Cutler (Chi - QB)
BN Chad Pennington (Mia - QB)

WR Lee Evans (Buf - WR)
WR Braylon Edwards (Cle - WR)
WR Chris Chambers (SD - WR)
BN Bernard Berrian (Min - WR)
BN DeSean Jackson (Phi - WR)


RB Reggie Bush (NO - RB)
RB Julius Jones (Sea - RB)
BN BenJarvus Green-Ellis (NE - RB)
BN Antonio Pittman (StL - RB)

TE John Carlson (Sea - TE)

K Adam Vinatieri (Ind - K)

DEF San Diego (DST)
BN Jacksonville (Jac - DEF)

Roster Positions: QB, WR, WR, WR, RB, RB, TE, K, DEF, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN

I agree with the keepers you have selected, it dosen't look good. If Favre decides to stay retired, I would keep Lee Evans over Berrian. I think Lee Evans could be in for a solid year with T.O. drawing attention on the other side.

I think you have the right players as keepers, and agree with the other post of possibly keeping Evans over Berrian, but I think in the end they will have very similar stats and it is who ever you like the best.

i have evans ahead of berrian even w/ favre at QB. favre's arm strength is not what it once was, and berrian's only skill is burning one deep. throw in percy harvin stealing touches and sidney rice coming back healthy, i think his target total goes down this year while he is still going to see WR1 coverage.

i agree with everyone else, Julius Jones may outscore bush in a non-ppr format, but you're getting more for your ADP with bush.

I would keep Evans over Berrian but it probably won't matter because this team is terrible.

I agree with these points -- Evans over Berrian regardless.

QB Jay Cutler (Chi - QB)
WR Lee Evans (Buf - WR)
WR Braylon Edwards (Cle - WR)
WR DeSean Jackson (Phi - WR)
WR Bernard Berrian (Min - WR)

I have a bold move to make. Keep all your solid WRs. Throw back all those marginal RBs, and then focus entirely on RBs in the draft.

That's what I would do. Reggie Bush isn't trustworthy.

Interesting, I like it! I would hold onto Bush, Your team is already weak it doesn't kill you to keep him. It seems right after I cut someone they have a breakout week.

good luck, Please help with mine:

This about sums it up. Though, the Lions can't do much worse than last year so it can't be too bad?

As much as it pains me to say it (Saints homer) I would also cut Reggie lose and keep the WR. You would have awesome depth to be able to move one for a RB later.
