My main concern is... what's going to happen if Freeman doesn't live up to the hype? With no back-up you might be putting yourself out on a limb here. Of course if he does you are going to be golden at this position.

At WR, great options and once Manning is back looking even better.... so long as Reggie is not burned out this year and that Jennings can see the ball since there are so many fingers in that offensive pie in Green Bay!!.

I like your starting backs, and Tate could certainly prove to be a fantastic depth choice.

At TE is Jared Cook or Chris Cooley available? I don't see Pettigrew getting much of a look-in this year.

Defense.... I am hoping you are playing the match-ups because the Giants have about the most banged up defense in the league at the moment... do they even have a healthy secondary right now?

Overall I think you are competitive but not leaving yourself any option at QB should you get any injuries or poor performance.

Hope that helps, rate mine?

One of the owners in our league took 4 QBs in the auction in hopes of forcing a trade later on. I can't say that I agree with that strategy since I'm just going to wait until he drops one onto the waiver wire instead of giving him anything of value. Thanks for your feedback.

Ahh that would explain it... lol. All that he has now is a bench full of QBs and no depth.... not sure why people think these strategies work out

First off, solid RBs and WRs.

You're not too bad off at QB, I think Freeman will be decent enough for you, but you do need a backup.
What four QBs does that guy have? How willing is he to deal and do you know what his price would be? I would try to trade Wayne or another receiver for a top QB. His strategy really only works if he gets fair or better value for his QBs, which probably won't happen. He's not in a position of power, because if he does not deal, he's probably screwed.

You can also try Wayne for a TE. Team is solid already, but an upgrade at TE or QB will push it over the top.
