OT: Your fantasy football roster
I just need a soap box to brag about my fantasy team and how it is better than yours!
I'm in a 12 team league, drafted 5th, snake draft fyi...
QB Philip Rivers, SD QB
RB DeAngelo Williams, Car RB
RB Marshawn Lynch*, Buf RB O
RB/WR Reggie Bush, NO RB
WR Calvin Johnson, Det WR
WR Terrell Owens, Buf WR
TE Dustin Keller, NYJ TE
D/ST Steelers D/ST, Pit D/ST
K Jason Elam, Atl K
Bench Carson Palmer, Cin QB
Bench Antonio Bryant, TB WR
Bench Torry Holt, Jac WR
Bench Sammy Morris, NE RB
Bench Muhsin Muhammad, Car WR
Bench Michael Crabtree, SF WR
Bench Jerious Norwood, Atl RB
*Marshawn Lynch is suspended for the first 3 weeks, but he was a steal in the 5th round.
-I have no clue who my TE is, but that's what I get when I draft a TE in the 13th round.
-Carson Palmer was still on the board in the 9th round, and I drafted him solely for trade bait.
-I took a flyer on Michael Crabtree in the 14th round.
-The rest of the bench is a crap shoot.
EDIT: FEEL FREE TO POST YOUR ROSTERS SO WE CAN ARGUE ABOUT WHO'S LINEUP IS BETTER!

Your TE was a huge weapon for Purdue for a few years. If you're a Michigan fan, you should probably know who he is.

Who are the idiots in your league that let you get all of those great players?
September 3rd, 2009 at 9:40 PM ^
It's a work league... with 9 men and 3 women, which might explain it.

I really like my starting lineup except for Palmer. I picked 7th and LT fell to me. Had to decide between him and Steven Jackson and went with my gut

McNabb is a solid pickup, especially if you drafted him in the 5th round or later. Your receivers look sketchy (primarily because of Roy Williams), but your bench is solid. When Lynch comes back, your team MAY give me a run for my money haha
September 3rd, 2009 at 9:45 PM ^
10 or 12 man league?
September 3rd, 2009 at 9:51 PM ^
or I am playing with the wrong guys and should have been in his league!
September 3rd, 2009 at 9:47 PM ^
will be top 10 at the end of this year, book it. Roy Williams is a stud and Romo will air it out and be huge this year as well.

Good team, but just remember "Guns don't kill people, my fantasy team kills people". (12 Team League, pay for free agents - hence the reason for taking two TE, D's, etc., oh yeah and 4th overall pick). Also this is with a bunch of bankers who apparently know nothing about the NFL expect for the cheat sheets they buy a day before the draft.
1. Matt Forte (plays Lions twice, enough said)
2. Greg Jennings (go Broncos - except this weekend)
3. Marques Colston
4. DeShaun Jackson
5. Larry Johnson (reach, but he hits women then spits in their face and for that I will take my chances).
6. Laveranues Coles
7. Julius Jones
8. Carson Palmer
9. Shonn Greene
10. Matt Hasselback
11. Philadelphia
12. John Carlson
13. Jamaal Charles
14. Jermichael Finley
15. Mason Crosby
16. San Diego

to pick up Jerious Norwood. Made my team much better with depth at RB later in the year. I have won twice in six years with a runner-up last year. I like my chances this season, especially when Lesean McCoy takes over for the (soon to be) injured Westbrook (sorry BW, I promise I do not wish you any ill will, I am just playing the odds).
September 3rd, 2009 at 10:01 PM ^
there are a lot of risks on your squad. Like any team, they could go well, but I am not high on your chances this year. Bowe, Bryant and Royal are all on really bad teams this year with very little support so they will get doubled up most games.
September 3rd, 2009 at 10:14 PM ^
Yea... Especially with Bryant coming off an injury. We'll see. I had the second to last pick this year. Took LT in first round.
