The quality of those teams makes me want to puke. Awesome job. We obviously like a lot of the same players this year.

Great team...my only beef is the backup WRs are lacking, but serviceable at least. Burleson should be able to provide decent cover on bye weeks, but I wouldn't expect much from Stokely, Rice, or Gage. And I like the trade...3 solid RB pick ups for a solid WR and a bunch of question marks...I say you're set.

[mackstradamus]

Thanks! It was kind of a whole thing on the WRs. I went from being extremely strong with Marshall and very weak at RB to decently strong at RB and lacking depth at WR. The amount of starting spots tends to make things thin.

No one in the league has a better starting lineup, but those bye weeks, eesh.

[mackstradamus]

Oh, and my TEs make me want to kill myself, but my leaguemates went on a run so early it was ridiculous. Witten was Round 2.

[OnePimpTiger]

Yeah that is an unusually large starting lineup, I didn't figure anybody had better. And 2nd Rd on Witten is ridiculous, but not really surprising. I've seen Nick Folk go in the 9th round...some people just don't get it!

[BU54CB]

I think your team looks good, although I'd say you need a better TE. Greg Olsen is great, but the Bears don't use him often enough to merit starts on a fantasy team IMO. I wouldn't worry about WR's, you can pick up serviceable WR's throughout the season.

[mackstradamus]

Actually, no I can't. Obviously, the rosters are 23 deep, 10 team league, so the top 230 players are off the board. There is absolutely nothing of value on the waiver wire.

I'm in a 10 team league with 22 deep rosters, so only 10 more players available in my league than yours. There are always WR available on waivers, the season hasn't even started yet. You never know who's going to perform or not, I picked up Wes Welker off waivers in the second week last season.
