I'm not thrilled with my RB's, but seeing some of the other crops people have. Tate and Murray and Ridley might be sufficient enough.


If murray can stay healthy then he'll be a good pick, it's just keeping him on the field that'll the issue

I like my team, although my RBs look week I think Ellington and Bell will do well and Rice could be a formidable back when his suspension ends. Maybe. Peyton, Allen and AJ should carry the load. :lol

QB - Peyton Manning
RB - Andre Ellington
RB - Joique Bell
WR - AJ Green
WR - Keenan Allen
FLEX - Ray Rice
TE - Martellus Bennett
D/ST - Broncos
K - Adam Vinatieri

Bench: Marques Colston, Jay Cutler, Fred Jackson, Mark Ingram, Kelvin Benjamin, Markus Wheaton, Ahmad Bradshaw

Solid overall I'd say. If Ellington and Bell play to their potential I can confidently say that's a playoff team.

I'm happier with my team than I usually wind up right after the draft. RB's could potentially be better, but I never liked any of the options once it was my turn to draft and I think it worked out pretty well for me.

QB: Nick Foles /// Colin Kaepernick
RB: Gio Bernard, Rashad Jennings /// Roy Helu, Latavius Murray
WR: Calvin Johnson, Wes Welker /// Mike Evans
TE: Julius Thomas /// Antonio Gates
F: Sammy Watkins /// Lamar Miller
K: Alex Henery
D/ST: Steelers

QB: Tom Brady // Tim Tebow
RB: Eddie Lacy // Ryan Mathews // Toby Gerhart // Terrance West // Jonathan Stewart
WR: Michael Crabtree // Terrance Williams // Justin Hunter // Dwayne Bowe // Brandin Cooks // Tavon Austin
TE: Vernon Davis
K: Blair Walsh
D/ST: Saints

I like my team. I got a top five defense that added Byrd this offseason. Brady is Brady and while he may not be 2010 or 2007-Brady fantasy wise, is consistent and should hold down the fort especially when Gronkowski returns. Davis is obviously an elite tight end and I like the upside of my receivers. Thin RB league but I am glad I came away with Lacy, Mathews, and Gerhart. Stewart will be a very solid fantasy back if Williams ends up getting benched or injured (I don't wish that upon him in any way that and I hope he doesn't get hurt; just saying). Similar situation with West although West could outright take the starting spot.

Good Lord, this actually is my team. I woke up and thought I might have dreamed how bad the draft went.

The autodraft fucked me big time.

I'm in need of a starting QB, and a #2 WR. Anyone have any offers? I'm open for anything really and I have plenty RBs to go around.

Yes, yes you sure do :lol.

If you're looking for a QB you might want to make a pitch to SKS for Jay Cutler. The fucker has both Peyton and Cutler.

I'd strongly suggest making a trade with @Str8Shooter for Russell Wilson (he has Rodgers as a starter). Brett could definitely use a good RB.

I second this motion! I def need a decent RB, I have a bit of depth at WR too.

TRADE ALERT!

I have traded Montee Ball to Legend for Mike Evans.

@str8shooter I'm definitely interested in Russell. Did you have anything in mind?

Unless Montee Ball has fixed his pass pro, he won't be doing much. Peyton won't trust him if he can't protect him. He's unproven.

I'm still open for business for Wilson if you want @motionmann. Maybe we can get creative somehow.
