How Can I Improve?

Postby mnkyboy_21 » Tue Sep 08, 2009 9:33 pm

I'm worried that I botched my draft with my QBs and RB2 (hurried those picks). What do you think? How does this team look for picking #7 out of 10 teams? Should I sit tight or work on a trade? Any thoughts on trade possibilities?

EDIT: ROSTER MODIFIED - SEE 9/16 POST
QB: T Romo, M Cassel, K Orton, M Stafford
RB: D Williams, R Bush, D Sproles, T Hightower, F Jackson, J Charles, J Davis
WR: A Johnson, D Bowe, C Ochocinco, L Coles, T Ginn, S Smith (NYG)
TE: G Olsen
DST: Vikings
K: K Brown

10 team league, 5 keepers, Standard scoring (6/TD, 1/10rush&rec, 1/25pass, -2 fum/int)
Start 2QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1RB/WR, 1TE, 1K, 1DST

I think you're fine at the QB position. Starting 2QBs is weird and tough. I've heard of leagues doing that before, but wouldn't like to be part of one myself. Cassel should be OK, but I would start in bulking up your RBs. Bush is definitely going to share time with Thomas, Sproles with Tomlinson, and after that you're looking at guys that should only be playing when your good guys have a bye week or someone better is injured.

I would recommend drawing from your WR pool, which is pretty deep, but it looks as though you could go ahead and start 4 of them if you wanted. I like all of your WRs except Smith (NYG) and think you may be able to part with Ocho or Bowe and pull in a more full-time, higher-tiered RB. Then you could put Ginn/Bush/Sproles in that flex spot with Johnson/Coles/Bowe(or)Ocho starting at WR. I don't think you'd pull in anyone substantial with Coles and you don't want to lose Johnson unless it's for someone really prime.

Thanks for the input rplantz. I've made some moves, and now have...

QB: T Romo, M Cassel, K Orton, M Sanchez
RB: D Williams, K Smith, R Bush, D Sproles, F Jackson, T Hightower, J Davis
WR: A Johnson, TJ Housh, L Coles, T Ginn, S Smith (NYG), L Robinson, C Schilens (IR)
TE: G Olsen
DST: Vikings
K: K Brown

Looking any better? Should I try to improve my WR3 spot by trading one of my lower tier RB (Sproles, Jackson, etc), or should I just sit tight for now and see how things play out with guys like Coles/Ginn/Schilens/etc?
