Answer 1

If my boy Roy williams stays healthy i say you got a A+++++ line up. solid running backs and wide outs with the top QB. Also great def except for Arizona.. i hate them with a passion.

Answer 2

Looks pretty amazing! I think Brady and Gates are probably the best at their positions. Your receivers are also very talented!

Answer 3

Dude, Tom Brady is not gonna have a year like his last. It just doesn't happen that way. He'll be first in QBs, but not a #7 overall value. I don't know. I just never take a QB in the first round. Jacobs is not that good of a RB. I just don't like this team that much. Cotchery is my second back-up in other leagues. Plus Cotchery and Williams are just not a good WR combo because both play for teams with weak QBs and weak offense, so they average about 3.5 TDs between each other. And Burriss doesn't get that much TDs either, so ya. TE/K/DEF are very good, especially Gates. Garrard is a very good back-up, and Forte is a good sleeper. But you can't have your only back-up a sleeper, because what if he doesn't get the job, then you are going to need to get another RB. And Gaffney is a back-up on his real team. You can't have back-ups playing on your fantasy team. You need him for 3 weeks. What if doesn't produce? Lee is a serviceble back-up. Cardinals DEF sucks though. They have one good guy on the line, and one good guy in the secondary and that's it! I'd rather have the 49ers DEF! (well maybe not, but you get the point) So most will say this is a great team because you have solid players in every position, but I just don't see them producing like you expect them too. Sorry! A tip from me: Try trading Brady and Jacobs for Brian Westbrook or Steven Jackson. Then you can insert Gerrard into the QB slot where he won't fail, and have a GREAT RB combo with Westbrook and MJD! That would be of the roof and it would balance with your lack of TDs from the WRs. So ya, I think that would be great! Maybe ask for a back-up QB too! Good luck!

Answer 4

Looks like you took Brady in the 1st round and then paid for it later. I know you're expecting 50 TD passes but plan on less than 40 this year. When Manning threw for 49 in '04 he followed it up with 28 TD tosses in '05 and 31 each in '06-'07.

Defenses are going to key on Brady so Maroney would have been a better choice.

Jones-Drew will split carries with Taylor and Jacobs will lose touches to Bradshaw this season. Burress and Cotchery are decent but Williams didn't play up to his rep last year and with Detroit's ground game a question mark he could struggle again this year as defenses load up against the passing game.

Gates is a primo TE and Forte could be a great sleeper pick but I think you're going to regret passing on a RB in Round 1. I'd give you a 6.5 (ouit of 10) or a C+.

Answer 5

i love jones drew in real life but in fantasy no way lol he splits alot of carries with freddy thats y u draft someone who the team relies on like a LT AP brian westbrook steven jackson larry johnson and y draft a qb in the first tom brady is not gonna have the numbers he had last year but hes gonna have manning kind of numbers (the good one) its not a first round pick though i rate a 7

Answer 6

I think your QBs are solid but the RB is not very solid because Jacobs is injury-prone and your defense is not very consistent

Answer 7

MoJo and Jacobs are a weak RB combination.  You should've taken a back in the first round for sure.  You can get a quarterback in the 4th or 5th round that wouldn't experience the same dropoff in fantasy point production then you do with your running backs.  There just aren't enough quality backs out there that don't share touches.  Your receivers and TEs are good though.

Answer 8

QB is very good

RB are solid for a 12-team league

WR are above average

TE is good

K is okay

DEF is inconsistent but still pretty good

bench is just average

Very nice, balanced roster......a top 4 team for sure

Answer 9

looks good to me.good luck.
