Answer 1

I feel like dapizapp did a decent job. I personally don't think your WR are as bad as him though. Your draft was not terrible, but you've got some holes. Currently, your starting RBs are kind of weak. I'd get rid of Jeff Reed and pick up another RB, hopefully a starter on a weaker team. The problem with drafting this early is that there is a lot of time for things to change. All in All, I'd give you a 6. You lack depth and your RBs are mediocre. Fortunately, Brady will carry your team, and Eli is a very servicable bye week QB.

Answer 2

It's really too early to tell, but, here I go.

Brady - top 5 QB easily.  Keeper.

McGahee - New coach, maybe they'll use him effectively this year.

Portis - Skeptical, O.K backup ti McGahee if you play in leagues with 1 starting back.  I'd suggest trading him off for Jerious Norwood or Michael Turner.  ATL will run this year.  Turner is their #1 back but Norwood is expected to play a role as a wide reciever.

Burress - He's getting old.  Steve Smith(NYG, not CAR) will see a lot more looks from Manning after that catch in the Super Bowl.  Devin Hester may become CHI #1 wideout.  Watch out.  Laraunt Robinson of ATL is going to see an increased role this year.  He's good.

Marshall - Worth keeping.  Cutler was an undiagnosed diebetic last year.  That's bad.  Diabetes makes you fatigued and can cause your vision to blur.  He has it under control now.  That will only make his receivers more productive.

Curtis - eh.. better options out there.  

Olsen - I don;t know.  I drafted him last year as a backup to a backup, but he never really came through.  Not his fault though.  He plays for the Bears.  I'm wary of any offensive player on the Bears this year (Except Hester.  I played in a league that counted return stats.  Ate them up).  They have no QB in my opinion.

Gostkowski - Kickers don't have much fantasy value.  He's good enough.  Get Elam if possible, though.  He signed to the Falcons and I know the Falcons will be kicking A LOT of field goals next year.

Steelers (D) - Better than most.

Eli - great backup

Taylor - Better than Portis.

Hardy - not impressed.  definately go for laraunt robinson over this guy.  TRUST ME!

Reed - o.k.

Giants (D) - respectable backup D

There ya go.  Hope you enjoy.

Answer 3

its pretty good

on a scale of 1-10, its a 8

Answer 4

you dont need two kickers.. i would get you another wr because yours arent too strong. starting early im likin it

Answer 5

Drop a kicker.  Get one on your bye week.  WRs seem to be your weak spot...
