CE, that your TD team? Pretty solid. Weak spots are RB 2 and WR2/3. Maybe TE

I picked #9 fwiw.... should I trade for a qb?

Trying shopping around a solid bench RB or WR plus Bradford for a Big Ben and see if they bite.

12 team PPR

QB: Michael Vick, Ben Roethlisberger
RB: Chris Johnson, Mark Ingram, Marshawn Lynch, Roy Helu, Javon Ringer, Jamie Harper
WR: Vincent Jackson, Brandon Marshall, Mike Thomas, Greg Little
TE: Rob Gronkowski, Kyle Rudolph
PK: Rob Bironas
TD: Chicago Bears
I'm assuming you start 3 WRs.

This is why I would never take Vick early. You are playing catch up the rest of the draft. You RBs are very shallow, high potential, but high risk. Mike Thomas is a serviceable WR3 who has a low ceiling. Not a fan of the TE.

But with good mgt he has a 99% chance of making the play offs

Well then, NVM. Mid 2nd round is pretty good value. I would still try to trade him for a 2nd round equivalent RB since you have Big Ben already. If you could land a Forte for Vick, your team would be SICK

No on Sanchez, Cassell is no better than Kolb IMO

No way. TTT, you underrate QB's big time. The quarterback is the most valuable position in fantasy football. Your quarterback scores the most points on your team, save the random anamoly RB, so having an elite QB is huge.

I agree with you. I guess I just don't view Vick as elite as the other top 4.

I would rather have Rodgers, Brees, and Rivers over Vick because I want consistency and greatness. However, I think Forte is just selling Vick a little short. I would keep the elite QB, and play the waiver wire a little for running backs. The turnover of new upper tier backs is incredible.

In non PPRs, I typically focus on getting a solid RB core. I personally, am not a big fan on Turner this year. He will get his TDs, but I can see a hit in his yardage. Romo is a good QB, WRs are amazing (I like Collie this year). Rbs are shaky, especially with 2 rookies as your RB2 and RB3.

Yeah I am a big time RB heavy guy but I drafted 12th and all the big names were off the board. Turner was literally best option at that point.

Definitely have some concern with Ingram AND Thomas but I'm hoping for some luck with either Matthews and/or Run DMC getting banged up so I can insert Tolbert and/or Bush.

TTT, these were the 3 best RBs left when I took Turner:

Turner, MJD, and Forte. Would you have picked one of the other 2?

Ahh yea, makes sense now. Sucks drafting late in a 12 team non PPR.

I like MJD this year, which probably puts me in the minority. I also think Tuners numbers will take a small hit this year.

However Turner > Forte in a non PPR
