QBs A
RBs C+ (Lynch is the varible I don't like Jacobs, Jones doesn't see the endzone and Taylor is 95 years old.)
WRs B-

K who cares
D B+


Team 5: Brees, T Jackson, LT, Addai, C Taylor, R Moss, Jacoby Jones, Plaxico, S Holmes, Galloway, T Williamson, M Muhammad, Hester, Gates, Winslow, Vinatieri, CHI DEF

QBs A- (brees is a hoss, but if he get's hurt and on the Bye week you are SCREWED)
RBs A (2 great starters, but again nothing on injury or bye weeks)
WRs A+ (but WRs are overrated... thats a great squad though)
TEs A+
K who cares

Team 6: C Palmer, Romo, Maroney, Alexander, W Parker, L Washington, C Johnson, A Johnson, D Bennett, Berrian, Brandon Jones, Cotchery, G Olson, Cooley, O Daniels, Mare, NE DEF

This team is just as good as 3, I give team 3 a very... VERY slight edge, based on the dominating RB situation


Team 7: V Young, Leinart, R Johnson, R Brown, D Williams, M Barber, K Jones, Calvin Johnson, Meachem, S Smith, Fitzgerald, V Jackson, Mark Clayton, B Watson, Marcedes Lewis, Kaeding, SD DEF

QBs B+ (both could preform as an A, but it's impossible to know based on playing only 3/4ths of a season)
RBs A (I really like Johnson and Brown and Barber is a good bye week starter)
WRs B (outside of Smith, alot of guys that will share all the catches.)
TEs B- (I like both of those guys and they could preform higher)
K who cares
D A-


Team 8: Rivers, Hasselbeck, S Jackson, Portis, J Lewis, McAllister, TO, Colston, J Walker, Stallworth, Jennings, Craig Davis, T Ginn, Crumpler, H Miller, S Graham, PHI DEF

QBs B
RBs B+
WR A+
TE B (Miller might just beast though)
K who cares
D B-

FYI: We have a rookie keeper draft so that is why there are so many rookies in our rosters.

Wow that's a very insightful post... care to actually give a breakdown of where my assesments are wrong?

And your right I've not won my main pay league... I've just been to the Championship game 3 of the last 4 years, and been one of the 4 playoff teams (out of 12) 5 of the 6 years it's been in existance.

What most people fail to understand is that WRs (since the Moss and Harrison haydays) are an extremely overrated fantasy posistion. I have been of this theroy for the last 2 seasons, but even ESPN ran a big story on this a week ago. The difference in points between #1 and #15 is nothing compared to the difference in top 5 RBs vs top 20 RBs. If you can handcuff your league at the RB posistion (2 top 7 RBs) and start a top 7-10 QB your have a great chance for a championship.
