Answer 1

Not bad.  Did you forget about a little position called quarterback, though?

You've got alot of people who are on the decline, though.  Dont be afraid to trade anyone on that list.  Even Jackson, in a high profile trade.

Overall, I give this team a 5/10.  If it's a PPR league, that jumps to a 6.5/10.  Definitely seek to improve at QB.

Answer 2

Overall, I really like the team, but there are a couple picks that are overvalued or of no value.  I suppose McGahee is a decent 3rd rounder, I'm just not sold on him.  However, I think you got an absolute steal in Thomas Jones in the 10th round.  He would have been a top 15 RB last year if his offense could get near the end zone.  With Favre in town, expect 1100+ yds and 6+ td's.

While I am a Lions fan, I don't think Kevin Jones (I realize he's in Chicago) nor Shaun McDonald have much value.  Forte should be the starter in Chi-town and while McDonald may end up as the 3 (probably the 4), the Lions don't have Martz in town anymore and they will run a more traditional 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 RB, 1 FB or 2 WR, 2 TE, 1 TB offense.  Combined, Furrey and McDonald probably wont combine for more then 70 catches.

Also, you WAAAAAY overdrafted Crosby in the 11th round.  NEVER, and I truly mean NEVER draft a kicker any earlier then the 2nd to last round unless you are in a league that requires 2 kickers.  Practically every year, the top kickers in the league were someone that went undrafted (i.e Mason Crosby, Nick Folk, Robbie Gould, Neal Rackers, etc.)  Even if Crosby is the best kicker, which he probably wont be, you could have gotten the same value in rounds 14 or 15 and taken someone with better up side in the 11th round.
