Overview:
Old school!
We like your overall strength at the traditionally less important positions, but make no mistake about it: this team is about strength at the running back position. And we think it will be the league favorite or very close to it. Somewhere Terrell Davis is smiling.
Nonetheless, we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention the relative lack of strength at quarterback and receiver. These are usually survivable weaknesses, but we'd feel better if we knew you were committed to zealously scouring the waiver wire for this year's emergent players at QB and WR. Getting a breakout player at one or both of those positions would take your already-good team to the next level.
Players we particularly like on this team include Joique Bell, Roy Helu, and Steve Hauschka. We have all these guys ranked ahead of where they are typically being drafted.
Bottom line:
• With great inseason management, we think you have about a 85 percent chance of making the playoffs.
• With good inseason management, we think you have about a 75 percent chance of making the playoffs.
• With average inseason management, we think you have a 65 percent chance of making the playoffs.

Overview:
In a competitive league, almost every team has a weakness. It's almost impossible to build a team that is strong at all three core positions (quarterback, running back and wide receiver). As you probably suspect, we perceive your weakness to be at the quarterback position. Of all the deficiencies to have though, this is usually the easiest one to mask.
Footballguys owner David Dodds even recommends you go into your draft with the goal of landing the top RBs and WRs while waiting to grab QBs late. Value-Based Drafting principles also suggest that teams constructed in this manner end up being strong. But for this team to reach it's full potential, you might need to have a quick trigger finger at the QB position and stay on the look out for good quarterback help. Last year Nick Foles could be had very cheap in August, but ended up contributing to a lot of fantasy championships. In 2012 it was Russell Wilson and Andrew Luck; in 2011 it was Cam Newton. Quarterbacks like these can be found every year, and that could be the key to your team's success.
So although this team isn't perfect (few are), it should still be a strong contender.
Players we particularly like on this team include Dwayne Bowe, Brian Hartline, Danny Amendola, Reggie Bush, and Darren McFadden. We have all these guys ranked ahead of where they are typically being drafted.
Bottom line:
With great inseason management, we think you have about a 80 percent chance of making the playoffs.
With good inseason management, we think you have about a 70 percent chance of making the playoffs.
With average inseason management, we think you have a 56 percent chance of making the playoffs.
eta- They're really hating on Matt Ryan and Phillip Rivers

Overview:
Your receivers are the strongest part of this team and you look good at tight end as well. While no team can be expected to be above average at all three core positions (QB/RB/WR), you are in the precarious position of being a bit weak at two of them.
Although you should not be counted out yet, you may need to be active on both the waiver wire and in trades to turn this team into a legitimate contender. The best way to achieve that might be to sacrifice some of your wide receiver strength to gain multiple players than can help your roster now. It's generally easier finding quarterbacks and wide receivers on the waiver wire than quality running backs.
Keep an eye out for quarterbacks like Nick Foles from last year, Russell Wilson and Andrew Luck from 2012, or Cam Newton in 2011. All were available cheap in August, and all contributed to fantasy championship teams. Likewise, running backs like Knowshon Moreno and Zac Stacy could be had dirt cheap at the draft or shortly after. You are likely going to need to land some of this year's top waiver plays, so pay close attention to increased workloads, targets, injuries, etc.
Players we particularly like on this team include Lance Dunbar, Andre Williams, and Tony Romo. We have all these guys ranked ahead of where they are typically being drafted.
Bottom line:
With great inseason management, we think you have about a 65 percent chance of making the playoffs.
With good inseason management, we think you have about a 50 percent chance of making the playoffs.
With average inseason management, we think you have a 30 percent chance of making the playoffs.
My favorite though:

TE Summary:
As you are well aware, Jimmy Graham is an elite tight end. We have him ranked first overall at the position. He's about 5.1 points per game better than an average starting TE in this league. Julius Thomas is another viable starting tight end in this league...

I think they would give me a 100 percent chance at the playoffs if I had drafted 16 running backs

My RBs are weak for sure, but I get a kick out of that site every year regardless.
