Good WR, but am I ok at RB?

Postby bill11011 » Wed Sep 08, 2010 5:28 pm

What do you think? 12 man league, no ppr, 6 pts all TD's, starters in ().

QB (1) Matt Schaub, Matt Cassel, Sam Bradford
RB (2) Rashard Mendenhall, Shonn Greene, Jerome Harrison, Michael Bush, Tim Hightower
WR (3) Randy Moss, Roddy White, Miles Austin, Mike Wallace, Jacoby Jones, Legedu Naanee, Greg Camarillo, Golden Tate
TE (1) Brent Celek
PK (1) Mason Crosby
Def (1) Pittsburgh Steelers

Should I try to move a top WR to improve at RB? Do I need a better bye week QB or am I ok? Anyone I should just drop? (Camarillo?)

Thanks

Your team is pretty solid.

Normally I wouldn't feel all that comfortable with Mendenhall and Greene as my RBs, but Greene will get the #s purely from volume. I wouldn't expect much from him this week against Baltimore.

While Greene is a low end #1 and a Mendenhall is a mid-low end #2, your starting WRs should all be WR1s on anyone's team.

Your RB situation isn't excellent but it isn't bad either and with WRs like that, you'll be just fine.

Thanks for rating mine.

Insane top 3 WR. That's one of the best I've seen for a 12 team league. Not high on your two backup QB's, but with Schaub you should have no problems at that position. I think you will definitely be a contender. Keep an eye on your RB core (Greene), and if he struggles than move one of WRs a couple of weeks in.

Good team, I would try to move one of the WR for a RB.

Please rate my team

I should say it's an auction draft with "redshirt" keepers (Greene & Mendy), so I was able to use most of my money to target the WRs.

My biggest mistake in retrospect - I could have had Roethlesburger as a backup instead of Cassell, but I let him go because of the 6 (now 4) games off.

Your starters are elite, your weakness is your RB depth, but that's not a serious issue. Your WR corps should carry you, especially since you have to start 3. I'd feel very confident with those starters and would consider moving some of your backup receivers for RB insurance. I'd really like to have LT on that team, for instance. Good luck!

It would be good to trade a RB/Wr for a better RB. If you can get a top tier RB you would be set

Schaub is a every week starter at QB and should build on his fantastic 2009 - set at QB

Mendy/Greene/Harrison/Bush/Hightower is fine at RB IMO, only needing to start 2 (no flex) - I think you're fine, 2 of those guys (typically Mendy/Greene) are going to be startable on a weekly basis.

WR is definately your strength - you have 3 guys who are capable of absolutely dominating and all tied to good offenses. You also have pretty decent depth w/ very high upside

Celek should be a top 8 (at worst) TE

Crosby/Pitt. are both every week starters at their positions.

I would definately wait on shaking up your roster, the last thing you want to do is take away from your strength (WR) to upgrade a position that looks to be at the very least workable.
