Title: Wizards come grade my team
Post by steelkings on Aug 30^th, 2005, 8:10am

Scoring only. 6 starters on game day.

1. Your thoughts on my kickers. I recieved chuckles when I selected both of these guys? Tynes, Keading.

2. Moats in the 11th rnd ?

3. Cory Dillon was my no# 1. (I picked 5th and couldnt trade it.)(Top 5 in order: Manning, Tomlinson, Alexander, Holmes, Dillon.

4. Other draft notables: Not on my team
Owens slid to 15th(?)
Culpepper slid to 12th (?)

5. The rest of my team is below.

I'd so your just OK, but I don't claim to be a wizard.

QBs are good.
RBs just OK for a scoring league. Jordan will have a nice year, but with Crockett still in the mix, and Moss and Porter doing fades, I'm afraid Jordan's #s will suffer. Bell will probably miss games due to injury, and Anderson is already pushing him.
WR are somewhat stronger IMO. Gonzo is nice. Wayne is a great pick in a scoring league.

All in all, I don't see you in the cellar, but I don't think it's a powerhouse unless one of your guys (Dillon or Wayne) has a monster year.

For a scoring only league, I love your QBs. They could both approach 30 TDs.

For RB, I like them all except for Bell (a good RB for yards, but not TDs) and Willie Parker (he won't score much). Moats is a great pick up as he could get a lot of goal line work based on pre-season games.

At WR, Wayne is great and Gonzo will get TDs, but Rod Gardner? And where is your depth? Trade Tatum Bell for a more solid WR.

Both of your kickers should get plenty of chances.

[offtopic]Thanks for the props in the subject line for the guys 'round here, sk. [smiley=wizard.gif] This thread, however, is fodder for "between the 20's". As such, that is where it will be relocated. Thank you for your understanding and future careful consideration of the organization we try to maintain on "the Gridiron". [smiley=bow.gif][/offtopic]

My bad. [smiley=Imwithstupid.gif]I suppose if I were to spend more time reading the thread maps Instead of doing other things [smiley=pudwhacker.gif]I would have put this in correctly. I guess the fantasy football talk [smiley=footballsmiley.gif] got me all worked up. I'll be sure to not let it happen again. [smiley=scared.gif]

Very solid QBs and RBs. Dillon and especially LaMont Jordan should be very dependable. Bell is a worthwhile investment, Parker is good short-term trade bait. I'm not crazy about Moats, since he seems like a Westbrook clone, but the Buckhalter early retirement certainly creates an opportunity.

Obviously Gonzalez is top-notch, and Wayne can put up points when it's his week, but I agree with Philly on Gardner. Granted he was wasted in Washington, but at least he had the #2 spot to himself. In Carolina it doesn't seem likely that he will beat out Colbert, and the Panthers are attempting to run more this year.
