Not bad for an autopick team, the software that does that is getting better every year. Years ago you would get totally horride teams. Got the top QB and a nice set of Wrs. RB is a weak spot.

I would try putting Larry Johnson in for week one even though the Ravens are not a good matchup. Derrick Ward was ranked kinda high because most thought he would be the ndisputed starter in Tampa when he was signed on but Graham is a good runner and Caddy has fought back from antoher tough injury and it sounds like they may test Caddy a lot early in the season. So I might wait a bit on Ward just to see how the pecking order in the 3 way RBBC (Running Back By Committee) in Tampa plays out. You can check with our Lineup Dr above as that is a close call. Ward should see an increasing role later but it seems like they will use Caddy hard at first just to see if he can stay healthy.

Josh morgan is a nice pickup that will could develop but for now he may be 3rd in SF and crab could sign also. Make sure there isn't a Chris Henry / Bengals out there.

Agree with Coach, here. LJ has the edge on a guy like Ward even agains the Ravens. Picking up Morgan in place of Keller is very smart. Can you run down the other Free Agents available on your waiver wire?

I decided to keep kelley for now and drop my backup kicker (houston Kris Brown) for Josh morgan. It is still a pending waiver though. Cinn Chris Henry is already taken.

Also for the free spot..should I leave santonio holmes or put another rb there?

Is there any rb out there I should look out for besides the obvious high rank ones because they are all taken..which sleepers should I try and look for?

Nah, don't overthink it. LJ for Ward is smart but after that I'd hold with your lineup.
