Sweet, no kicker ?? :headscratch: very nice non the less.

No QB2 either.

Not drafting a K or any back-ups is a good strategy during the pre-season but I don't see what it gains you with the PS games over.

Anyway, Like your core team ALOT and like your depth at RB (needless to say).

Curious who you will drop for a K (Bradshaw, maybe) and no back-ups buys you some time with the other RBs. Hope your guys stay healthy!

Well I have bradshaw involved in a trade right now to get Anthony Gonzo away from the Brandon Jacobs owner. Gonzales is the guys #3 so he is pretty deep at WR and he has very few RBs. Felix Jones is his #2 and Kevin Faulk his #3 so it gets ugly for him after Jacobs and should he get hurt, which he has done from time to time, then Bradshaw would be elevated to #1 status. This league allows us to not draft a Kicker if we so choose. James Davis was there in the last round so he was too tempting. If Jamal Lewis had gotten cut then I would have been sitting pretty. I can always get a decent kicker.

I like having depth at RB since it is a physical and vulnerable position. However I don't seem to have suffered too bad at the other positions from drafting 8 RBs (Brady, Colston, Ocho Cinco, D Clark). I just picked the guys I thought were the best values.

Update: My Bradshaw for Anthony Gonzales trade has been accepted.

I gave you a "B", but you are close to a "C".

I figure this is like your other league and TE is not mandatory. If it is...you need depth and you drop to a "C"
I also figured you are only starting two WRs. Which is good, since you only ave 3. Hester is not, and should not be counted on at Wr IMO. you need help here greatly...especially if Ocho isn't back this year. Nabbing Henry could be a savior...but only time will tell.

Lots or Rbs are nice....not sure on flex starts or what...but I think I might deal one or two of these to get some Wr help.

This is a no flex, TE req league. Please note that I traded Ahmad Bradshaw for Anthony Gonzales. Thanks for rating. I would love to hear some 2 for 1 trades to land me some more elite talent, or a RB for another position trade that you think could be beneficial.

Okay, well first Dallas Clark as a #1 Te is solid. He should have a great year...as I still don't think Indy will run well this year.

Looking at back up Tes you might get for lower cost: Michael Finley of Gb is a great sleeper, Brent Celek of Phillly, Zach Miller in Oakland, Pettigrew is a rookie starting in Detroit so may be worth a look.

The pick up of Gonzales was a great move. With him as your #3, and Henry as backup if Ocho chokeso....you are solid. May want some better depth than Hester. I think Olsen and Forte are leading receivers for Chicago this year.

Might want to look at young Receivers coming into their own....say a Jordy Nelson in Gb...if Jennings or Driver get hurt. Stuckey in NYJ, or Steve Smith in NYG. Nicks if you like rookie wrs.

The goal is to target teams with some depth...and parlay your Rbs to cover their weaknesses.

Hey guys who do I drop to get a kicker? James Davis? Also would you guys start Benson or Rice over Grant or Jackson this week????
