Tim Hightower OR Darren Sproles + Stevie Johnson for a WR better than Johnson and some other garbage of your choice anyone ????

Your RB's aren't as good as you think. Mendenhall is so-so and Jackson's best years are way behind him. Jones is a nice back IF he can stay healthy. He will be the workload in Dallas this year and way back when he was a Razorback, his knock was his ability to stay in games. His health IS going to be an issue; probably hamstring middle to late in the season. Green-Ellis is a nice back but he popped on the scene last year and I would be leery he can have a repeat performance. you do have some pretty good WR's. Welker has some miles on him and his best days are behind him but he is solid, not a big numbers guy but will have spurts where he will pick up chunks. Not many, but they will come. Same for Santana Moss. he gets his numbers in small doses but makes it up for it in number of catches. His odometer is running though. Burleson isn't a bad receiver, just don't bet the farm on him. His a small ball gamer. Johnson & Johnson is where you points will come.

QB Peyton Manning
RB Adrian Peterson
WR Vincent Jackson
WR DeSean Jackson
TE Jermichael Finley
RB/WR/TE LeSean McCoy
K Garrett Harley
D New England

Bench
QB Matt Ryan <-- not a bad replacement until Manning is healthy
RB Maurice Jones-Drew
WR Brandon Marshall
WR Chad Ochocinco
WR Percy Harvin
WR Lee Evans <-- my sleeper. I think he's going to have a huge year for the Ravens
WR Pierre Garcon
WR Hines Ward
RB Reggie Bush
TE Benjamin Watson

I think I can live with that team. :cheers:

Colt looked pretty damn good the other night. He's incredibly accurate and arm strength doesn't really matter in the West Coast offense.

I think you're in for a surprise with regard to the Cleveland offense. :cheers:

Which is why I picked up Benjamin Watson late...he's looking to be McCoy's security blanket.

Arian Foster.....Hamstring....Entropy :sadangel:

Last night is why I drafted Burleson and Pettigrew. Stafford is the real deal, finally healthy, and Calvin Johnson will be the focus of opposing defenses and double teams. He'll still get his, but Burleson and Pettigrew are going to get a ton of looks and the Lion's offense is going to put up big time yardage and points. :dance:

Chad Ochocinco is not a great player anymore, and Wes Welker is going to be the Patriot's leading WR, which is why I drafted him too. Law-Firm won't get much more than around 1000 yards, but he will get double digit TDs again, which is why I drafted him as well.

:dance:

Welker will be the #1 receiver, but he's more suited for PPR leagues than yardage and TD leagues. Still, not a bad choice overall.

Brady and Ochocinco have been hooking up a lot in preseason. I not positive that is going to continue, but I picked him up just in case.

Stafford and his receivers could have a huge year...if he can remain healthy...

You gotta be a little worried. He hurt that hamstring on the very first day of practice. No OTA's, lockout, little pre-season prep and he has hurt it again. Reminds me of Felix Jones. Better not pin your hopes on him. Me, on the other hand, could be in the same boat. Johnson is still holding out and hasn't hit a lick in pre-season with no OTA's and the lock out too. But, I do have Michael Turner as well.
