12 team league - 8th pick

Postby YoungPhoenix » Fri Aug 28, 2009 5:05 pm

Just had a draft last night and I am not sure I like the way things turned out for my squad. I usually do not take a chance on rookie RBs, but this strategy has burned me the last two years so I grabbed two this year with potential. Plus I decided to roll the dice with Chris Henry and Earl Bennett (both late round picks). Let me know your thoughts (as always WHIR):

Starters:
QB - Matt Schaub
WR - Randy Moss
WR - TJ Houshmandzadeh
RB - Chris Johnson
RB - Pierre Thomas
TE - Greg Olsen
WR/RB - Ray Rice
DEF - Tampa Bay
K - Lawrence Tynes

Bench:
QBs - Matt Hasselbeck
WRs - Kevin Walter, Chris Henry, Earl Bennett
RBs - LaSean McCoy, Jaamal Charles, James Davis

Looks good to me. Is it a ppr?

Im not in love with Pierre Thomas, but your team looks solid.

Looks pretty good to me for a 12 man league. Who did you take with your 8th pick? CJ4.24 or Moss? If Ray Rice takes over full duty, which i have heard numerous places that its only a matter of time before he is the man, and Pierre keeps his butt on the field then you will be good to go man.

Whats not to like, looks like you did well. Solid starters at every spot lots of nice upside on the bench. Just had the same pick and ended up making similar choices. Not sure I understand TB or Tynes, but thats an easy swap if they dont work out.

My first round pick was Chris Johnson. I passed over Steve Slaton and Steven Jackson for CJ plus the gentlemen in front of me in the draft order kept snagging my preferred choices (Calvin Johnson right before i took Randy Moss, Dallas Clark right i took before Greg Olsen, Greg Jennings right before i took TJ Housh) which is why I was not too sure I was happy with the way the draft went. It is a PPR league (.5 points per reception). Originally I was going to take the Dallas defense but the guy in front of me in the draft decided he wanted 2 defenses for some reason which blew my mind (and left me with Tampa). Thanks for the feedback.
