Rate my team.

[Suhsyourdaddy]

ESPN Standard, 10 team league:

QB Cam
RB TRich
RB Spiller
Flex MJD
WR Dre
WR Decker
TE Julius Thomas
D/ST Rams
K Dawson
Bench: Lamar Miller, Mark Ingram, Jordy, Tavon, Mike Williams, Thompkins, Vick

I think I went too heavy with WR's on the bench but I felt very good about my RB's. Took a couple sleeper's at D and TE, but the value isn't there after the top 2-3 of each anyway. Wasn't thrilled with getting Spiller, but at him at TRich at 10 and 11 are a dream come true.

QB & TE are your weak spots. I think you should still make the playoffs fairly easily.

looks like a 7-6 team right now

Not sure how a QB that was #5 as a rook and #4 in his second year is "weak" but TE you got right.

The guy is in a league full of tools if he has Cam, Andre and TRICH, Spiller, MJD, and Miller..would take a minor miracle for him not to make at least the semi's.

Are you high on julius thomas?? a 10 team league and thomas is your starter... what happened there??

sCam has had a very weak preseason. Maybe he turns it around during the regular season, but I don't see it happening with that bunch in Charlotte.

I don't get the Thomas pick. He has had 1 career catch. Plus the fact that he is going to have to split time with Tamme & Dressen really hurts.

 

[Perpetual_Beast_Mode]

That is a SUPERB foursome of RBs (TRich, Spiller, MJD, and Lamar Miller off the bench). I agree with those who say that you could probably find a more proven option at TE, though. But I like Cam at QB and Dre and Decker at WR, as well, and I see your team as a championship contender.

By that rationale, Tom Brady is also weak..preseason means jack to established starters..and its the same bunch he had the oast two years.

Yeah, I think he has the potential to do big things in that offense, but I agree, it's a bit risky to role with someone so unproven. Some available FA's that I could replace with are Martellus Bennett, Sudfeld, Fleener, and Cameron Jordan.

 

[TREFF]

Grab Jordan before he's gone. J. Thomas will be exceptionally lucky to see 3-5 targets a game with those three WR's around.

Looks more like an 8 team league. What kind of morons let you get those RB's, really.

Lol...Yeah, my friends are pretty damn bad at this. I'm not going to complain though, gives me a couple extra hundred and bragging rights all year when I kick all their asses. My wife joined the league this year and her team is even more stacked than mine, thanks to my advice of course.

Kaep, Romo
Martin, Ridley, Lacy, Ball, DeAngelo, Helu
A.J., Nicks, James Jones, Lance Moore, Hopkins
Greg Olsen
Steelers D Hauschka

I feel pretty confident that one of us will win.

 

[TREFF]

I like your team more..if you grab Jordan

 

[tlance]

I agree that you should upgrade at TE. Thomas could be good in the future, but probably not this year. Your RBs are absolutely filthy and you should not feel bad at all about Spiller. He and TRich are both top 5 on many draft boards. I would draft him behind only AP and Martin.

Oh, and I think your team is definitely better than your wife's.

Ok, consider it done.

Do you have any durability concerns with Spiller? That's the only thing that really worries me, but I certainly couldn't pass him at that spot.

That is always a concern with RBs who are small in stature, but he is pretty elusive and has the type of footwork to avoid big hits. If the Bills can get him on the edges and in space, he will be fine. If he is running a lot between the tackles, then he probably won't make it through the whole season.

For me, the upside is greater than the risk.
