Hey, fellas. My fantasy team drafted at 5 AM today. I'm fairly pleased with the results, but I want to get some ideas of what you guys might do in my shoes. Here's the roster:

STARTERS
--------
QB - Tom Brady
RB - Frank Gore
RB - Kevin Smith
RB/WR - Joseph Addai
WR - Terrell Owens
WR - Lee Evans
TE - Tony Gonzalez
D/ST - Eagles D/ST
K - Nate Kaeding

BENCH
------
RB - Knowshon Moreno
QB - Ben Roethlisberger
RB - Earnest Graham
RB - Le'Ron McClain
WR - Bobby Engram
RB - Rashard Mendenhall
WR - Percy Harvin


Suggestions? Comments? I'd appreciate any and all of them. Thanks!

Moreno will start over Smith by week 2 (I would wait a week to see who get carries in Denver) and with Addai, you should be able to pick up WRs by week 3, if you need to.

Also, I've always found Big Ben draws alot of trade interest by people who don't realize he sucks for fantasy.

You need WR's ASAP. Two guys on the same team can kill your season and the bye week. Especially with a guy like Lee Evans who has a couple good weeks a season and that is about it for him. Always play him against Miami but any other team is risky......

Agreed. LOL, I didn't even realize that. Guess it hasn't sunk in that TO is a Bill now.

NO HE'S NOT. He's still a Cowboy, and we're going to the playoffs. Yea, playoffs. Maybe I should go take my meds now.

Thanks for the advice and feedback, guys. I'm considering dropping Bobby Engram to pick up Derrick Mason. I'm also hoping to trade Big Ben off for something I could use down the line.

The only question I would have why Start Evans and TO ?
they both cant have 100 yard games each week.


The rest of the Starting lineup is solid! very Solid IMO

Thank you very much! I will be sitting Evans for the first week and see where we end up from there.

.....I should pay more attention. ::facepalm::

EDIT: Canceled the roster change and instead dropped Engram for Isaac Bruce (the best thing available). Thoughts?

Don't forget about Buckhalter in Denver also.

I just meant that I think Moreno is the better fantasy prospect, if he gets the carries. But both have favorable match-ups the first 2 weeks.
