8th Pick (out of 10), Rate My Team Please! WHIR!

Postby FFaddict » Tue Aug 31, 2010 1:24 pm

I drafted 8th in a 10 man league. Standard scoring, no PPR. Standard roster spots except for an additional W/R flex. This is this league's first year with a lot of first year players. I've never drafted from the 8 spot before, though. There were tons of odd picks, probably led me to the team I have. I thought I may have reached on Moss, but with Greene and Benson still there later, I think I can feel comfortable. Drafted Gresham just because I'm unsure about how Daniels's knee is going to hold up. Anyways, I'll respond ASAP in return, thanks in advance!

QB - Joe Flacco --Round 8--
RB - Shonn Greene --Round 3--
RB - Cedric Benson --Round 4--
WR - Andre Johnson --Round 1--
WR - Randy Moss --Round 2--
WR - Dwayne Bowe --Round 7--
TE - Owen Daniels --Round 11--
W/R - Pierre Thomas --Round 5--
DEF - Cincinnati --Round 15--
K - Janikowski --Round 16--
BN - Joseph Addai --Round 6--
BN - Matt Forte --Round 9--
BN - Felix Jones --Round 10--
BN - Brandon Jacobs --Round 12--
BN - Steve Breaston --Round 13--
BN - Jermaine Gresham --Round 14--

solid draft.
good qb, possbily the the top 2 wrs, decent rbs.
your gamble to skip on rbs definitely paid off, especially if greene plays up to his potential and benson continues where he left off. thomas and addai serve as great backups or flex. your tes are weak, but who cares.

I think you did very well. Johnson/Moss both belong in 1st and Benson/Greene both belong in second in non-PPR. What is remarkable is that you got PT with the 5th and still manage to get Bowe and Addai/Forte. I think this was a very good draft for you. Joe Flacco will definitely outperform his ADP.

Please look at mine:

QB - Joe Flacco --Round 8-- He's going to have a monster season imo and a steal at round 8
RB - Shonn Greene --Round 3-- we'll see how he'll handle the workload
RB - Cedric Benson --Round 4-- a steal for round 4
WR - Andre Johnson --Round 1-- nice pick
WR - Randy Moss --Round 2-- another nice pick
WR - Dwayne Bowe --Round 7-- a solid third receiver suprised he was still there
TE - Owen Daniels --Round 11-- alot of TE's good job drafting late
W/R - Pierre Thomas --Round 5-- Most explosive RB on the saints
DEF - Cincinnati --Round 15--
K - Janikowski --Round 16--
BN - Joseph Addai --Round 6-- injury prone and i see donald brown getting carries later in the season maybe u want to pick him up as well
BN - Matt Forte --Round 9-- Hopefully he is back to his old form from 2 years ago
BN - Felix Jones --Round 10-- cowboys running backs are iffy but he is the most exploslive imo
BN - Brandon Jacobs --Round 12-- Another steal, no1 remembers the old brandon jacobs
BN - Steve Breaston --Round 13-- - sleeper pick and I think he'll do great as the number 2
BN - Jermaine Gresham --Round 14--

Youre ridiculously loaded at the skill positions.

While none of your RBs are anything to call home about, I think you have enough depth to play matchups. I'm not very high on Greene, I would actually explore trading him and Flacco for something like Matt Schaub or Tom Brady (to pair with your elite receivers). Benson and PT are pretty much every week starts because they will see the goalline enough to mask any deficiencies they have in talent or touches. Addai, Forte, Jacobs and Felix can be cycled through your flex spot. Your receivers should do more than enough to carry your team but personally, I need a top 6 QB to feel comfortable about my team.
