How do you think my draft turned out?

I'm not real happy, but let me know your thoughts. Thanks for ANY help here, it's a bit long, but I'd really like your feedback. CHEERS!
Scoring: QB Heavy (6/passTD), PPR (1pt/rec) and return yds (1pt/15yds). We get 1 keeper as our 7th rd pick, provided the keeper was a 5th rd or later pick (or FA pickup).
Round 1 (8): Willie Parker. Was targeting Parker or BWB, so happy to get a 2nd solid starting RB right away. 1st 7 picks went LT, SJax, LJ, Peyton, BWB, Rudi, Zander.
Round 2 (13): Torry Holt. Have to have a stud WR in a PPR format.
Round 3 (28): Drew Brees. Last of top 5 QBs available. Passed Boldin and Javon Walker for him, so I'm unsure if I did that right.
Round 4 (33): Antonio Gates. Hoped Boldin or Walker would drop, but both went in the next 4 picks, so took top TE.
Round 5 (48): Deion Branch. First pick I'm really wondering about now that I look back. Caddy, Norwood, Ahman, Kevin Jones, Coles, Driver and Santana Moss were still available. I needed a WR, but not sure Branch was the wisest pick.
Round 6 (53): Donald Driver. Felt better about it when Driver dropped.
Round 7 (68): Keeper Reggie Bush. Complete stud in this format (PPR and returns).
Round 8 (88): Lendale White. I needed to go RB. Tatum Bell, Lamont Jordan and Jamal Lewis still there, but I think White could be every bit as good as Henry was last year if he gets his head on straight.
Round 9 (93): Jamal Lewis. In case White doesn't get his head on straight
Round 10 (108): Mark Clayton. Real wildcard here. could be terrific. Brandon Jackson, Drew Bennett and Kevin Curtis were still there...reach?
Round 11 (113): Muhsin Muhammed. hate relying on Rex, but if Griese plays, really like Mush.
Round 12 (128): Michael Turner. Wanted to stick it to the LT owner, who sniped Adrian Peterson on me! 
Round 13 (133): DALLAS. A top 5 unit this late, so felt pretty good about it.
Round 14 (148): Olindo Mare. Have Saints QB, RB and K, probably need to pick up Stover and drop Mare.
Round 15 (153): Anthony Gonzales. Could be a terrific sleeper in PPR leagues.
Round 16 (168): Brett Favre. I hate the Packers...no really. I'm talking real hate here. But Favre in the 16th round??? 
Round 17 (173): Brian Leonard. I have the #1 overall pick's backup in Turner, so thought I'd take the #2 overall as well. Might get a lucky injury.
Team:
QB: Brees, Favre
RB: Parker, Bush, White, Lewis, Turner
WR: Holt, Branch, Driver, Clayton, Muhammed, Gonzales
TE: Gates
K: Mare
D: DALLAS
FAs:
QB: Garcia, McNair, Campbell, Green, Losman, Culpepper
RB: Michael Pittman, Dayne, Chris Brown, Chris Henry
WR: Burleson, Crayton, Williamson, Baskett, Michael Clayton
TE: Owen Daniels, Scheffler
K: Stover, Gotkowski, Akers, Nedney
DEF: OAK, PIT, NYJ
Thoughts? See any roster moves I should make?
Drop Favre for Garcia?
Move Mare for Stover?
Anyone see the TEN RBBC shaking out other than with White?
Thanks!

You ain't a kiddin'! That settles it....I'm dropping Brat Farte for Garcia. He plays @CAR week 4, which isn't great, but at least I don't have to root for Farte.

I dont think you made a mistake with Branch. I think its well balanced and should be very competitive. The biggest concern is Fast Willy Parker. There was lots of changes in the O-line in Pittsburgh. Then again, being a huge Steeler fan I may be a little shy to success. |

If having Brees is only a downfall week 4, and injuries are what will hurt me (don't they always), I guess I feel OK with that. Hopefully it's LT that gets injured and I can ride Michael Turner to another championship!
