I did my own rankings last night. I'm not doing a write up, but what I did was assign a rank to everyone's units (twss)from 1-12 and weight the positions. I did not factor in K, Def, or Bench.

1. LE 8.435

2. Alum 7.815

3. Rondo 6.835

4. Redd 6.655

5. Phan 6.535

6. 21JS 6.485

7. Barry 6.285

8. Swam 6.15

9. Earl 5.91

10. Lou 5.485

11. Dan 4.695

12. Clams 3.31

Here is the Rate My Team Ranking for all teams from the Football guys for the Tiger Conference.

If you were missing a position like K and D, I added Succop and the Vikings D to complete a roster and dropped $1 pickups as required.

1.) Les - easily the best group of starters. 3 stud WRs, arguably the best QB in Rogers, and a PPR stud in Sproles to go along with Ridley. I like Olsen at TE too. Bench is just ok but they don't get you points if they aren't in your lineup.

2.) Alum - Stole P. Manning due to a system glitch. RBs are fragile but have high ceilings. WR duo of Bowe and AJ is one of the best in the league and Garcon & Blackmon are solid reserves.

3.) Knat - Maybe the best big three in the league with Charles, Rice and Julio. Romo is an underrated fantasy QB and Desean Jackson could have a big year. Depth will be an issue for this team. Studs need to produce.

4.) 21 Jumpstreet - Another great group of starters. Peterson and Jackson are a great RB duo and his WR will thrive in PPR. Stafford is a top 5 QB.

5.) Redd - About as balanced squad as you will see in terms of starters and depth. I love both Luck and Kaep...one of them will land him a nice skill player. Foster is a stud and I feel like Gore is a bit underrated going into the season. He still has good value in that offense.

6.) Rondo - Best trio of RBs in the league with T-Rich, McCoy, and CJ who he raved about. They will keep him in the hunt. I like Nicks and Colston will get his, but Rondo needs Andy Reid to come through for him, because Smith and Rivers are both meh at best.

7.) Earl - I wanted to rank this team higher because of the WR. Dez, Marshall, and Amendola are by far the best trio of WR in the league and in our format they will keep his team in it. If Lamar Miller proves to be the guy that Earl paid for, the defending champ will be back in the mix.

8.) Louie - I love Cam this year and Calvin is a beast. James Jones will be good too, and I like Murray. Louie could challenge for a playoff spot but on paper he's not elite.

9.) Barry - IF RG3 has no setbacks and IF Antonio Brown and Eric Decker come through, this will be a stout team. Lynch, Spiller, and Reggie is a nasty RB duo. Probably deserves to be ranked higher but I don't feel like making the changes. Good team though :)

10.) OBUDan - Stole Doug Martin and seemed to get good value during the auction, but he waited instead of adding proven players. Now if Montee Ball becomes the man in Denver, Gronk comes back in a few weeks, and Tavon Austin is baby Percy Harvin, Dan will have a loaded squad. I like his talent, just a lot of question marks.

11.) Swam - Man, I was expecting more from you bro...This was supposed to be your year! You waited too long. I like Morris but he is not a big PPR guy. Like Dan there are guys with upside - Forte could bounce back in a big way. I hate Matty Ice so he drops you down a spot or two.

12.) Clams - Weird to see a team with Brees and Graham being ranked last but you also have like 4 other Saints who are just average. Mendenhall as a #1 rb is not that good and the WR are just OK although I like T. Smith a lot this year.

Let me end by saying that no team is horrible. I see the upside in all of them, this is just what I see at glancing at the teams.
