Rookie Help with 12 Team Money League, WHIR!

Postby Valandir » Fri Sep 11, 2009 12:01 am

Hey, so I'm new to fantasy football but I'm playing a league with friends. 12 team standard scoring rules (no PPR), and I'd appreciate any help with my roster since I'm not confident in my RB situation. WHIR if at all possible.

QB: Tom Brady
WR: Larry Fitzgerald
WR: Roy Williams
RB: Ryan Grant
RB: Knowshon Moreno
WR/RB: Bernard Berrian
TE: Kevin Boss
DEF: Chicago Bears

Bench: Beanie Wells, RB
Bench: Earnest Graham, RB
Bench: LeSean McCoy, RB
Bench: Josh Morgan, WR
Bench: David Garrard, QB
Bench: James Davis, RB
Bench: Earl Bennett, WR

I'm thinking of trying to trade McCoy to Westbrook's owner since he's interested in getting him to try and upgrade at a position, but I'm not too sure where to try and improve on my team. I feel like I have a lot of depth and upside with my bench picks, but nobody who is proven and is worth actually starting at the beginning of the season.

It's a decent team, but I just don't like going WR/QB in the first two rounds. Grant was a nice pick though, probably the best RB you could hope for towards the end of the 3rd but I don't think I like any of those guys in the early 4th. You have a lot of upside, but absolutely need one of your rookie RBs to pay off. I think you probably passed over a couple of better picks to load up on all of the rookies. It would definitely be a good move to work out a trade with the Westbrook owner if you could get someone that is worth starting now. Post his team and I can try to help figure out a deal (or go to the Draft, Trade, Keeper & Waiver forum where you'll get more responses).

Thanks for the help!

I'll post a thread in the trade forum as well to see if I can get any advice. Westbrook's owner's roster looks like this:

QB: Matt Schaub
WR: Chad "Ochocinco" (I still feel weird calling him that)
WR: Eddie Royal
RB: Matt Forte
RB: Brian Westbrook
WR/RB: Ronnie Brown
TE: Jason Witten
DEF: San Diego Chargers

Bench: Felix Jones, RB
Bench: Torry Holt, WR
Bench: Leon Washington, RB
Bench: Chris Chambers, WR
Bench: Michael Bush, RB
Bench: Sidney Rice, WR
Bench: Mike Bell, RB

I was thinking it'd be nice to get Ronnie Brown, but I'm not sure how I'd trade for him, as I'm not sold on him being that much better than Grant.
