QB Warner
RB Cadillac, Lendale White
RB Hightower, McGahee, Jon.Stewart
WR Moss
WR Calvin Johnson
TE Watson
K Longwell
D Titans (dropping them this week)

Coming out of the draft, I thought I'd be in decent shape....

QB & WR's are good. All RB's are by committee type, no true everydown back. It appears your team will be up and down at best. You are right to drop the titans defense. Haynesworth going to the redskins looks to be a big loss for titans.

I assume that is Randy and not Santana Moss?

Remember. They say if you go 0-2 you have a 14% chance of making the playoffs keep that in mind.

Really? You have the worst backfield I think I've ever seen. I think Moss will be okay, but he's not going to hit a home run every game. That's why steady production from your RBs is vital. You'll win a couple of games when Warner has a big day on the same day as Moss, but I'd say you get three wins at most.

How many people are in your league? I don't see a first rounder on your team...

Its a 12 team league and I had the 11th pick. Took Moss after his 2 touchdown preseason outing. Then took Calvin Johnson with the 14th pick. I got Warner end of 3rd round and then the rest of the shite. I thought with those 3, even if Lendale did 1/2 of last year, I'd be in good shape.

That was too high for him. Too bad you didn't grab Cedric Benson somewhere in there.

I did several mock drafts and saw that picking the WRs early was not a good strategy. Picking Brees early was likewise the deathknell for the backfield. You've got two studs a WR, but I don't see that getting you into the playoffs. It's rare for any WR to have two TDs a game, while RBs do it often enough.

Good luck. You'll need it.

Same boat for me. I just happen to play teams with AP week 1 and Gore yesterday.

I'll think he'll end up losing this week too. Seems like all that won last week, lost this week and vice versa except a couple...

yep. And you and your opponent were both 0-1, and the only 2-0 person was in a contest between two 1-0 people. Every contest between a 1-0/0-1 resulted in 2 people with 1-1 records.

I won't see them till late in the day anyway. Sucks I work 9-6:30 on Sundays. I can check the scores and stuff but can't respond to the smack talk from my phone for some reason...
