Thoughts? I'm a bit weak on RB. 12 team, PPR league:

QB - Big Ben
RB - McCoy
RB - Best
WR - Fitz
WR - Wayne
Flex - Beanie Wells
TE - Pettigrew
K - Crosby
DEF - NYG
B - McNabb
B - Manningham
B - Amendola
B - Winslow
B - Sproles
B - Arizona D

Weak at RB? Those are two of the best pass catchers in the league. If Best can stay healthy, your RBs are awesome. QB is good, terrible backup. Amazing starting WRs, Manningham and Amendola are amazing bench WRs too. Not high on Beanie, but he is a decent flex play. Great late round TE for a PPR league. Terrible RB bench. NEVER carry a bench defense, pick up some depth instead of carrying one of them.

Overall, this is one hell of a team for a 12 team league

I wouldn't take Vick in the 1st, but I can't see Foster going after #4 overall so that would mean Vivk would have had to last until #20 in a 12 team league. I don't really see that.

6. Jermains Gresham-TE
7. Anquain Bolden-Flex

15. Brandon Pettigrew
16. Detroit Lions Def

Good god you have one hell of a RB/WR starting lineup. Add that to Big Ben, you have a sick starting roster. Back QB is great, backup RBs are solid (for backups), Having Maclin as your bench WR is awesome. Pettigrew should be starting over Gresham IMO. Great team, you really don't have any glaring weak spots except tight end but Pettigrew could be a sleeper.

Thanks for the ratings. I tried something new this year and didn't take a tight end until the 14th and 15th rounds. This is a church league that I'm in and I could of had Greg Olsen but I opened my big mouth and told the guy picking ahead of me that Michael Crabtree was hurt and he took Olsen. You're probably right about Pettigrew. I saw that, he'll probably get bumped up into the starting TE spot. A lot of these guys were going by yahoo rankings and that's where they messed up. I use draftsharks and had my draft board ready for the draft. I should do pretty well. What do you think about the two defenses? The falcons and cowboys are still there but I think I'm pretty solid.

Colts are still there. I watched the game that the two giants players got hurt in but that giants defense still swarmed to the ball like I haven't seen in a while. They were aggressive as hell and that's the style of defense I love to watch.

I have never drafted a defense. I pick up a new one each week and play matchups.

Thanks TTT, appreciate the comments. Yeah, my "weak at RB" comment was due to not having much of a backup plan if Best cant stay healthy. Hopefully he can...
