How'd I Do With My 10-Team League?

I would have taken Foster over Morris. You didn't go safe with guys like DeMarco Murray and Amendola who have both had injury issues in the past. If your guys stay healthy your team is pretty solid overall.

Pretty solid team, especially if Amendola and others stay completely healthy.

good team speedy but didn't you learn from last year?? remember how rough the RB situation is in the NFL. If i recall correctly, we were both in the same boat, great WRs but tough RB situation which eventually did us in. This year I went bigtime with the RBS. With my first three picks (9th out of 12) I went Forte, David Wilson, F Gore. It does help that in my league we can start 3 (2RB and a flex). I even got ahmad bradshaw as backup because RBs get hurt so often. Great call handcuffing bryce brown though, I did the same thing. He could be a monster if mccoy's injury problems resurface. Murray doesnt really impress me, if he can stay healthy though maybe he will be solid enough.

Wild card on your roster is Lamar Miller IMO. If he has a great year you're in great shape. If he has decent or below average year for his expectations, you may find yourself in middle of standings and hope to get hot come playoffs.

Yeah I think my team is solid. But it definitely could be better. I never shy away from injury prone players (last year I was blessed with McFadden, Murray and Benson as my RB's), so I'm just praying Murray and Amendola can stay healthy. My draft was extremely RB heavy early, and great QB's like Brees and Rodgers didn't go til the 4th round. I actually took Miller ahead of Brees or Rodgers. But if I skipped on Miller for one of the QB's, I would have been left with someone like Ryan Mathews or BenJarvus Green Ellis as my Flex.

To be honest, I like mathews better than lamar miller haha, but then you would pretty much have the most injury prone backfield of all-time so that wasnt a bad choice. but hey, its just a sign you play in a smart league...anyone who knows anything about FFB will take a stud RB over the best QB any day...QB is a very easy position to replace point wise...good RBs are hard to come by nowadays

Just drafted for my second league. Had the third pick in a 10-team standard league. Same rules as the previous league, except passing TD's are worth 6 points.

Projected lineup:
QB: Matt Ryan
RB: Jamaal Charles
RB: Steven Jackson
WR: Brandon Marshall
WR: Danny Amendola
FLEX: Lamar Miller
TE: Vernon Davis
K: Phil Dawson
DST: Steelers
BENCH: Darryl Richardson, Ben Tate, Leveon Bell, Kembrell Thompkins, Brandon Myers, Josh Freeman

I'm loving this team. I play it with a bunch of close friends from college, a couple of them aren't the brightest, which is probably why I came away with such a good team. Was lucky to get Marshall in the early 3rd round, I think some of the speculation about his hip scared people off him. Loving my RB depth. I basically just loaded up with RB's once I filled all my starters. I potentially have 5 starting RB's on my team, and probably the best backup RB (Tate).

now that is a great team! nice draft man, love that you got d-rich as your backup, he could do nicely this year...I may be the only person in all of fantasy football that is really not sold on leveon bell but I think this team has a real good shot at taking a title, very well balanced
