Hand me the trophy right now?

Postby kev0ut » Tue Aug 31, 2010 4:27 pm

Kidding, of course. But I think I did pretty ok. Standard 10 team yahoo league, 6th pick:

QB Kevin Kolb
WR Randy Moss
WR Brandon Marshall
WR Dwayne Bowe
RB Michael Turner
RB Knowshown Moreno
TE Jermichael Finley
W/R Arian Foster
BN Justin Forsett RB
BN Mike Wallace WR
BN Donovan McNabb QB
BN Ladainian Tomlinson RB
BN Donald Brown RB
K David Akers
DEF Baltimore

Let me know what you think. Willing to look at other rosters as well.

I like your team. RB depth is probably your biggest concern. Knowshon has been hurt and ypc last year left something to be desired. Also you could upgrade at QB, but I don't think it's a necessity. Philadelphia will throw the ball a lot and have talented pass catchers. Although his int. totals might be high, he should approach 4 k yards.

Dont like Knowshon either... or Forsett for that matter. But I guess theyre good as a flex option. I view Foster as your RB2. I would explore doing a 2 for 1, e.g. Knowshon and Forsett for Jahvid Best or CJ Spiller.

Also would explore taking Matt Cassell as a third QB and playing matchups. Cassell is underrated this year, has a full set of weapons in Bowe, Chambers, Charles, McCluster and Charlie Weis as offensive coordinator. Also have an easy schedule and no defense, making for some good shootouts.

I agree with the cassel call....I like him and think he's underrated. If you don't believe me check out my roster...he's on there for a reason.

Not feeling this team sorry. You need lots of Turner and Moss this year and a breakout year for Kolb. I think he is more of a top end back up than an every week starter. I believe this team has some potential and I like the fact that you seem to be taking chances. If things go your way with kolb, moreno, and one of your wideouts, you may be there at the end.

But I gotta believe those guys that grabbed an AP, MJD or Johnson will have a more sure path. Who did you take with the #6 pick? I assume Turner and then came pack in round two with Moss. If that is the case, I would've leaned toward a QB if one was available (especially rodgers, manning or brees).

Good luck. Not terrible by any means but you need some breakout years for sure.

I like it but Kolb does scare me a bit. If he can be solid then I think you are set.

Good luck.

Please take a look at mine.

Put me in the list of those who aren't sold on Kolb. Solid everywhere else, but I wouldn't depend on Kolb to be a sure #1.


Good luck.

lol well not everyone can get AP, MJD, or CJ. I took Turner with the 6th, then moss, marshall, and moreno. The top 5 QB's were gone by the time my 3rd pick came, which is ridiculous, so I just decided to wait and kolb fell to me in the 8th. I think moreno is a safe pick in the 4th, but I do think I need foster to break out. Also it wouldn't hurt if shonn green got hurt :-)

The team is such pimp that all it needs is for Kolb to be ok, not great, and it will be there at the end. Very solid. Start Wallace over Bowe (even when Leftwich is in) and Foster over Knowshon, but otherwise damn.
