I like ur team... IMO, TO just gives me a terrible feeling all the time. I had him last year and half the time I was cursing him. Goodluck w/him. I know he can be a beast when he isn't busy running his mouth!

I know, TO + LJ = High risk high reward. Takin some chances.

Almost your whole team is high risk / high reward! Did you take Westbrook at 6? He could pay off but incredibly risky and he was falling enough that he may have been available in the 2nd round. I think TO and LJ are also very risky players. Moss and Parker have limited upside but should be OK. White should be a good WR1 but I think Ryan is being a little overvalued this year. Still, the combination of the two could be great. Hester has a lot of potential at the W/T position. I like Ginn on the bench but after him, it seems weak.

Overall, C+. You've got too many players that I see as either high risk or limited upside. It could work out, but I don't like the chances. In the early rounds, I try to minimize risks and in later rounds, I try to maximize upside. It looks like you did the opposite with some risky picks early and some solid but limited upside picks later. We just had very different strategies, which puts me a little down on your team.

any more takers?

Was thinking super high risk reward before I even saw the other comments. You have a chance of top 15-20+ production out of nearly every starter put your going to have to do well filling in the gaps where someone disappoints.

Risky with Westbrook at 6 in a non PPR league, but like was said, really high risk/high reward roster. I don't like Willie Parker much (I have him in a league, too), but at least you semi-handcuffed him with Moore. I could easily see your team as top three or bottom three.

too many wrs for my taste esp in a non ppr league. for a 12 team league depth isnt terrible but both rbs have injury risks and LJ is meh imo. i like your starting wrs tho prob top in your league. ryan-white may be due for a setback so dont expect a repeat of last year.

I disagree with everyone else. High risk-Moderate reward.

The Bad: Your team would be amazing 2 years ago. Westbrook, Parker and Johnson are almost (if not already) past their prime. Your receivers are above average, but your questionable RB depth will hurt you. The reward may not justify the risk because there is a chance that all of them will have subpar years. If it works out you will look like a genius though.

The Good: I like the nice young talent with Ginn, Roddy White and Ryan. Good balance with the vets and young. Plus, it looks like you are a gambler which is a quality all good FF players have.

Overall: I don't know who you picked first, but you could have had some young talent (Deangelo, Chris Johnson, Slaton) and still picked up Parker and Johnson later on. Or vice versa (Ray Rice, Knowshon in the later rounds with Westbrook at 6). I like to pick the guys with the highest floor in the first 6 rounds and the guys with the highest ceiling for the remaining 9 rounds.

Bottom Line: You will compete for the first half of the year with a risk that your team will collapse due to injuries or lack of production the later half of the year. Barring any injuries or lack of production, fantasy playoffs for sure.

Help me out if you can:

I really like your team if they can steer clear of injuries. I've had Westbrook before. The guy would give me a heart attack every week over whether or not he was going to play. I'm also really excited to see what Parker does this season. Good Luck!
