Vikings DST

Hasselbeck, Matt QB SEA

Johnson, Chris RB TEN

Mendenhall, Rashard RB PIT

Taylor, Chester RB

Raiders DST

also if you could rank my team by position and/or give me some tips that would be just fantastic

Answer 1

   I don't think you made any dumb moves you have a solid team.

Answer 2

You have a solid team I would start Hasselback in week one but if Favre does well in week one then switch in the next week but I would start hasselbeck first. Rating you by postition would look like this

QB 8/10

RB 9/10 DrioRashard and get a backup Receiver

WR 6/10 only because you don't have a back up when Braylon and Donte have the browns bye week.

TE 9/10 only because you don't have a backup.

K 8/10

D9/10 because Raiders D is horrible when the Vikings have a bye week.

Answer 3

Week 1: Start Hasselbeck.  It's the safer option.  

The Jets play Miami in Miami week 1.  That should very well be a 102F game.  They're probably not gonna have the receivers or the running backs run wild in that type of weather.  Subs should be used frequently and don't expect Favre to get in a rhythm with his receivers.  Not to mention Favre is still relatively new to the offense.

Hasselbeck on the other hand is playing against a Bills team that really isn't that great.  They're passing defense doesn't look very special either as two first team offenses have burned them via the aerial attack.

Also, I would suggest dropping the Raiders defense and picking up a backup wide receiver.  I would highly suggest picking up Brandon Lloyd from the Chicago Bears.  Ron Turner (Bears' offensive coordinator) was his head coach at Illinois so he is already familiar with the offense.  Not to mention Kyle Orton loves him.  He threw 4 passes in a row to him in last week's preseason game.  He's also number 1 on the depth chart.

I would also suggest you do not start two wide receivers from the same team.  They counter act each other's production.
