You need a better TE. And David Givens hasn't practiced in weeks. He may not even start the year.

yeah, i heard that too. graham i think is gonna be real good this year. hes catching the ball (finally) and half the NE tight ends are injured or in holdout.

How deep is the league? Number of teams? Etc. From the looks of it your team is average, and I agree with PP. That would be a good place to start.

Hello there all SacTown is back for another year of Football ( intro sports music of your choice )

After getting my butt handed to me in my 2nd year of Fantasy baseball and my first attempt at a roto league < sheesh what tha heck happened to my team ?? INJURIES happened * sigh * > I'm more than ready for my truest sports love .

Ok as I see it :

Steve "Air" McNair is poised for another MVP season . I know that loosing Eddie ( a GOOD thing IMO ) and Justin Mc ( again , not a bad thing IMO ) would seem like it would hurt his over-all chances , and yet Mr Brown and Mr Calico fill the voids rather nicely . Add to that the added balls to D. Mason and an honest ground attack this year < SHOCK > and the Titans seem likely to be in the hunt with a BALANCED attack . Oh , did I mention Mr Brown can catch and so can Antowain ? * nods * GOOD . The emergence of Erron Kinney just adds another body to throw to .

Darrel , "Mr Jackson if you're nasty" , will drive you nuts I'm afraid . He could be outstanding , if he didn't drop so many friggin balls . Still , his upside makes him worth the risk .. but as a number one reciever ? Hmm thats REALLY risky in my book , but then again , thats what wins championships . Playing it safe gets you 3rd , and maybe 2nd if you're lucky . Breakout seasons and diamonds in the rough are essential to winning it all . He can do that if he just concentrates a bit .

Defector Justin Mc went for 800 yrds and 7 TDs . He also did a little return work for my beloved Titans last year . I like the kid , but will he be able to break the siamese twins that are Chad and Moss ? They click on a level that is remenicent of Montana to Rice . They seem to know what each other is thinking out there when they are on . I'm not suggesting they are anywhere NEAR that combo , but they certainly show flashes of it . Justin may benefit from the double coverage of Moss . Most teams you would say CERTAINLY he would benefit , but Chad and Santana have a knack of makin it work out there . He's good . Will he do as well as he did last year ? I just don't know .

David Givens had stats that were boosted by Patton getting hurt and Troy missing 4 games and underachieving in the 12 he played . I know Givens only played in 13 games , but still , I think Deion Branch was the more productive and consistent WR in New England .

Graham will suffer through split time with Fauria again as the Pats seem unable to commit to a "starting" TE .

Edgerrin James was a wonderful story last year . Still , I want to see two seasons of full production before I place him back amungst the top tier RBs . His upside is HUGE so worth the risk / reward .

Fred is a Yardage RB pure and simple . TDs seems to slip past him though :cool:

The rest of your squad seem good for what they are and at what they do . I'm not sure if this squad can win a championship , but you can certainly be a spoiler :) I wish you luck this year . I'm about to post MY team .. such as it is .

As always this was simply my ramblings , YMMV :D
