Already in panic mode

OK, so after drafting what i considered the best team in both of my bigger money leagues, i'm wondering if my slightly tweaked strategy was a huge mistake. Perhaps week one was just sloppy and low scoring as usual; however the loss of Ryan Grant (and I NEVER pick Packers) has left me with a sickly, lighter wallet kinda feeling. So here I will list the rosters and matchups as I have them, and maybe i just have shitty teams or im playing the wrong guys or whatever. Any input is greatly appreciated.

1st league... fairly standard scoring, however you are locked into the number players at each position, even on the bench - 2 QB, 4 RB, 5WR, 2 TE, 2 K, one DEF

QB Aaron Rodgers buf (yeah, i lifted the packer ban remember)
WR Greg Jennings buf (see?)
WR Michael Crabtree NO
WR Devery Henderson @SF
RB Frank Gore NO
RB Ryan Mathews JAX
TE Witten CHI (the bears are getting lit up, i may not even listen to it)
K Bironas PIT
DEF Bal @Cin

BN Matthew Stafford (may pick up Hasselbeck, staff has wk 10 @ bills though, hassel has cards @ home)
BN Jhavid Best Phi (Yeah i drank that koolaid)
BN Cadillac Williams @car
BN TO Bal
BN Jabar Gaffney SEA
BN Zach Miller STL
BN Neil Rackers @WAS

Team 2 more or less standard but has IDPs returns/tackles etc

QB Brees @SF
WR Colston @SF
WR Austin Collie NYG
WR Jabar Gaffney Sea
RB Jhavid Best PHI (clearly this is the league i had grant in)
RB Darren McFadden Stl (maybe i start cadillac over best? this is bad man)
TE Heap @cin (dude, stay healthy one year and youre sick wtf)
K Janikowski Stl
DEF Green Bay Buf
D Patrick Willis NO
D Asante Samuel @Det

BN CJ Spiller @GB (Fumbletower is available...)
BN Cadillac Williams @car
BN TO Bal (I know i also lifted the TO ban)
BN McNabb Hou (Brees's bye is the week he play eagles prime time... i think)
BN Baltimore DEF @Cin

Basically I'm wondering where I went wrong... other than the whole Ryan Grant/Jhavid Best debacle
 
Don't panic after week 1!

Losing Grant cost me too, as did the Foster showcase, the Kolb injury, the Bengals forgetting to show up, the 9er's upset, etc, etc, etc.

One game does not a trend make.
 
I have a lot of the same guys in 7 different leagues. Went 0 - 8 last week and I'm sitting tight for the most part. You must have drafted those guys for a reason. Have some faith in yourself for a couple weeks
