Fantasy Team Drafted - Updated!

[vikingfan101]

Finally got this done. 8 People - 22 Rounds - $10 buyin. I had the #3 pick overall. We didnt do all the rounds at the end and just decided to do free agency on those since we did this as an in person draft then loaded it to ESPN. I was fairly suprised I was able to get just about everyone I wanted (Aside from Fitzgerald and Gates, which I intend on trading for). Lmk what you think:

As of Week 7 I am 7-0

nice team, gotta love those 8 man leagues!!

1 jackson
2 addai
3 holt
4 brady

right?

[vikingfan101]

Definitely! I was in a 10 man earlier today as well, and Jackson, Addai and Brady all went round one. I got Jackson in first, Addai in second and Brady in third.

I would like to upgrade my WR's though if possible, or a better TE.

How on earth did you get Jackson, Addai AND Henry, as well as Cadillac who could well be good again this year! That's one of the stronger teams I've ever seen I believe!

I hope I can get a team like that in my main league this year.

trade witten and rivers for vernon davis and someone.....i assume you can use anyone in your OP slot? id think you would wanna find a way to get anquan into your starting lineup

[vikingfan101]

Vila - Believe it or not, I got Caddy in the THIRTEENTH round! Henry was my
5th round pick. Running back is probably my stronger point. Best of luck in yours!

Proudest - I actually had a chance at Vernon, but wasnt sure if hes worth the risk. Wasnt he injured like almost all last year?

If anything though, I think I would put Caddy instead of Rivers in the OP. It seems WR's just dont get that many points.

[theproudestmonkey]

vernon was injured early in the season (broken leg i believe)....however, averaged 15.5 yds/rec the final 5 games. should be a top 5 TE this year

also, remember that RBs and WRs basically run on the same point system, so dont always assume your 4th RB is a better fit than your 3rd WR (just an example). for instance, last year caddy (i know, off year) had 994 total yds and 1 TD (3 fumbles).....bryant johnson, marty booker, reche caldwell, devery henderson, and eddie kennison all had better fantasy numbers than caddy (and they are not the best of receivers)

dont let caddy burn ya!! rivers is all good, and won't kill ya at the flex - there is a reason you were able to steal cadillac in the 13th

nice team though alex!! good luck with it!!

[vikingfan101]

Alright, made a trade here, and got some free agents, so my team up top is now updated.

I traded Boldin and Rivers for Wayne. Im hoping I dont regret it!

[theproudestmonkey]

that works, i personally have wayne and marvin rated as top 5 receivers.

anytime you get a top 3 QB (which brady is) there is no need to have any kind of value on the bench (baring injuries which ya just cant plan for). you now leave yourself many options. if henry doesn't work out, can just throw in a moss or mason. can use mcnair as your back up and insert receivers their too.

should be a decent team alex, dont think id do much to it!!

good luck

[vikingfan101]

Thanks man. I dont anticipate any more moves unless I can pick up another elite WR or maybe a better OP Player. I may just win this!
