    I get your point on that and I agree...that's just something I didn't look at, never crossed my mind.

    And I'm going to have to have you sign a Whining Waiver form to assure you don't blame the outcome of the season on your inability to pick up Brett Favre or any other such insignificant issue.

    I would say I did you a favor by making it so you couldn't pick up Favre...but I just looked at your QBs and you could probably use him....

    haha...i will not agree to any such waiver....it is my right to whine as often as I want and whenever I want

    as far as my QB's....Palmer's gonna be a stud this year...I would've had a better backup if we didn't have guys on autopick drafting 3 or 4 QB's on an 18 man roster...at least I was lucky enough to avoid Delhomme

    Hey, I wanted to model my fantasy team after my favorite NFL team.

    The Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

    I'm really, REALLY bored at work lately, so I decided to run our league through a free team evaluator I found. It's on the Footballguys.com site. Obviously it's all just other people's opinions and really means nothing, but I wanted to do it anyway, so shut it.

    Here's how our teams ranked based on percentage chance of making the playoffs with great management. They give four opinions for each team, so I used the range of the highest and lowest percentages.

    1 - Hail to the Victors (85-99% chance of making playoffs w/great management)
    1 - Philly Blunts (85-99%)
    3 - Holy Roller Novacaine (80-99%)
    3 - Texas Hellbillies (80-99%)
    5 - The 'Horns (80-90%)
    6 - • PABS!!! (65-90%)
    7 - Team Ramrod (80-85%)
    8 - Los Angeles Stratusfaction (60-75%)
    9 - The Pope's Pillagers (65-70%)
    10 - That Thing On Ric Flairs Back (55-65%)
    11 - RI The 11 Dwarves (55%)

    JeRmZ, it wouldn't even let me rate your team...apparently it sucks so bad it doesn't get a rating.

    It gives detailed "analysis" of the team overall and breakdowns by position, so if you want some more details about the rankins, go check it out.

    i just put my team in, and 3 of the 4 "experts" think that even with "average inseason management" i'm no worse than an 87% chance to make the playoffs.

    Bob Henry is the only guy down on my team, saying I have a 90% chance at playoffs with "great" management....while the other 3 think i'm a 99% chance with just "good" management

    you also got my percents wrong tiger pimp....with great management i'm a 90-99% chance, not 85-99%

    Either you did something wrong or you're already trying to cheat:

    QB: Carson Palmer, Kerry Collins
    RB: Frank Gore, Darren McFadden, Larry Johnson, Joseph Addai, Ray Rice, Michael Bush
    WR: Randy Moss, Marques Colston, Ted Ginn, Chris Henry, Nate Washington, Mark Clayton
    TE: Kellen Winslow, Heath Miller
    PK: Garrett Hartley
    TD: Chicago Bears

    Overview:


    In a competitive league, almost every team has a weakness. It's almost impossible to build a team that is strong at all three core positions (quarterback, running back and wide receiver). As you probably suspect, we perceive your weakness to be at the quarterback position. Of all the deficiencies to have though, this is usually the easiest one to mask.

    Footballguys owner David Dodds even recommends you go into your draft with the goal of landing the top RBs and WRs while waiting to grab QBs late. Value-Based Drafting principles also suggest that teams constructed in this manner end up being strong. But for this team to reach it's full potential, you might need to have a quick trigger finger at the QB position and stay on the look out for good quarterback help. Last year guys like Matt Cassel, Tyler Thigpen, Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco likely went undrafted. Even Kurt Warner wasn't drafted in early leagues.

    So although this team isn't perfect (few are), it should still be a strong contender.

    Players we particularly like on this team include Randy Moss, Ray Rice, Chris Henry, Larry Johnson, Michael Bush, Heath Miller, Nate Washington, and the Bears defense. We have all these guys ranked ahead of where they are typically being drafted.

    Bottom line:
    With great inseason management, we think you have about a 85 percent chance of making the playoffs.
    With good inseason management, we think you have about a 80 percent chance of making the playoffs.
    With average inseason management, we think you have a 68 percent chance of making the playoffs.


    In any event, we wish you the best of luck. Here's hoping all your weeks are like week 12 of 2006:
    Joseph Addai vs. PHI: 208 combined yards, 4 TD
    Frank Gore vs. STL: 165 combined yards, 1 TD
    Larry Johnson vs. DEN: 163 combined yards, 1 TD
    Chris Henry vs. CLE: 41 receiving yards, 2 TD
    Carson Palmer vs. CLE: 275 passing yards, 3 TD

    Either you did something wrong or you're already trying to cheat:

    I don't have Garrett Hartley anymore....my kicker is Jeff Reed

    so i'm now truly #1 in the preseason rankings and you can go ahead and update that list with my name on top!

    It was David Dodds and not Bob Henry who gave me the lowest rankings...everybody else thinks my team is perfect
