Please give me criticism WHIR

Postby Bardu » Sat Sep 11, 2010 8:29 pm

I drafted this team in a competitive 12 man PPR league. Standard scoring except QBs (4/-2).

QB Peyton Manning
RB Chris Johnson
RB CJ Spiller
WR Marques Colston
WR Hines Ward
W/R Derrick Mason
TE Zach Miller
K Dan Carpenter
Def Ravens

Bench
WR Santonio Holmes, Dez Bryant, Sidney Rice, Mike Williams (TB)
RB Leon Washington, Bernard Scott
QB Vince Young

Obviously, past CJ2k and Spiller, my team is short on running backs. I think I have a really strong core of WRs on my bench. I also really like my starting lineup, especially when Holmes could replace Mason after he returns from his suspension. But I still need to be able to start someone when I have byes at RB. Who should I try to trade for and who should I trade away? Can I trust CJ Spiller? Can I trust Leon Washington? Any criticism appreciated.

overall pretty good i think... cant fault your QBs.. i like your WRs, hopefully one of your bench guys willput up numbers.. personally, i wouldnt have taken sidney rice, hes too much of a question mark- i wouldve grabbed another RB instead.. I like waiting to take zach miller- im a firm believer in him

you did get chris johnson, but other than that idk if id be able to count on any of the other backs.. i wouldnt feel comfortable starting spiller each week, and the other guys even less so.. id try to do some kind of trade (like i said hopefully one of your WRs pans out so you can trade one).. but apart from not taking enough solid RBs i think its a pretty good team

I wouldn't worry about RBs just yet. You will likely have to do something eventually at least for bye weeks. Your best hope if for Bryant and Williams to start strong. That would give you really good trade bait to get a better RB2. I wouldn't worry about doing anything just yet though. Not sure you would get enough value.
12 Team League. We start 2 QBs and get .5 PPR, otherwise standard scoring
QBs: Stafford, Fitzpatrick, Collins
RBs: Charles, Mendenhall, Best, Starks, Carter, Karim

I definately would worry about your running backs, but not as much as your receivers. See what Spiller does tomorrow and hope he is the man...and try to pick up some other backups as they come about...maybe a Derrick Ward would have value in Texas - and be available on your WW.

You WR are not the greatest...Ward has no Ben for 4 games, Holmes out 4, Mason now has Housh to content with in Baltimore, Rice is hurt and Bryant is a rookie. After week 5 you should be alright when Ben is back and Holmes is back, but if Spillr doesn't pan out and a lot can go wrong with this WR group...you could be 0-4. I'd be hoping Manning and CJ can carry your team.
