My First FFB Team of the season

[awtysst]

I am not sure if I am in the right forum. If not, mods please feel free to move it.

I just completed my first FFB draft of the season and wanted to hear yalls thoughts. League is a standard league with usual configerations.
(1 qb, 3 wr, 2 RB, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 D)
here is my team;

QBs: Drew Brees, Phillp Rivers, Matt Schaub
WRs: AJ, Calvin Johnson, Galloway, Devin Hester
RBs: LT, M. Jones-Drew, Ahman Green, Vernand Morency, Kevin Jones
TE: Heath Miller
K: Jason Elam
D: Pitt

I am not overly experienced myself since I just started playing last year but it looks like an excellent draft. From my experience last year I would get rid of Vernand Morency unless you have major bye week conflicts with your RB corp. Even then, you could probably pick up someone for a week if you need to. Get rid of Morency and get another WR.

Thanks for the assessment!
Yeah, the plan was to load up on extra backs and use them as possible trade bait. The initial plan was to have LT and M Jones Drew as my starters and use Green as my bye week replacement/injuryt replacement. I figured I could use Kevin Jones and Morency as trade bait as both are their teams starters.

Anyone else have any thoughts?

How many teams in your league? I'd say you have a solid to excellent team for a 12 team league, but probably average for 10 or even 8 teams...

12 teams in yahoo. I saw some really bizzare draft strategy. For example, Steve Smith and Carson Palmer were taken in the first round, and TO was the first pick of the second round.

You're a bigger than I am.

It looks like you have a solid team. LT alone can win it for you.

I started a yahoo league which is having a live draft on September 3rd. It's going to have individual defensive players too. I tried to make it as close to real football as possible with roster spots and scoring.

Join up if you're interested.

I don't know if it's okay to plug my league here or not, but if it's not okay, I'm sorry.

I'm assuming you are looking for feedback, since you posted. In short: solid, solid team. Your success begins at RB. LT, Drew, and Green. Personally, if Brandon Jackson if still on your waiver wire, you may want to drop Kev Jones and pick up Jackson to handcuff Morency.

QB. Set.
TE, K, D --- unless you are talking CHI or BAL, or Gates, it does not matter.

About the only weakness I see is WR. I doubt Hester sees any more than 3-5 plays at WR/game. That's plays. Not touches. I base this solely on what I have seen for other both-side-of-the-ball players, and readily acknowledge that Hester is a supreme talent. That said, that's an awfully expensive fantasy roster slot. Who's on the WR waiver wire? Nice roll of the dice on C Johnson.

Good luck. Congrats. Nice team.
