Port I was looking over your team to see If I could work a trade, and your team looks pretty weak man.

anyone with a 10 or 12 team draft have the 6th pick?

if so, can they post their team?

LEs, the 6th team in the league I run lookslike this:

Big Ben
Kitna

Barber III
T Jones
Kevin Smith
Chris Johnson
Stecker

Braylon
Roddy White
Santana Moss
Ginn
Mushin
Patten

Heath Miller

Shayne Graham

Jax D

FWIW - he is normally a bottom feeder in our league.

Gore 12th man.

and I tried to trade from one to 12 BEFORE the first round fell that way. I was super fricking pissed when McGahahee and Grant went 10 and 11

12th!

I picked 5th in a 10-team league... first time I've been in one that small...

QB Matt Hasselbeck
WR Braylon Edwards
WR Chad Johnson
RB Joseph Addai
RB Maurice Jones-Drew
TE Jason Witten
W/T Calvin Johnson
K Matt Bryant
DEF Indianapolis

BN Laurence Maroney
BN Joey Galloway
BN Donald Driver
BN Matt Forte

I think I put together a solid team, but the shallowness of this league was throwing me off. Only 20 starting RBs so platoon guys and injury-risks were there far later than I expected.

I usually play with defensive players, but it can be tedious as frick to draft them. Plus the difference between the best and dudes you can pick up off of waivers is hardly anything in fantasy.

10 teams just seemed so small to me. Why even bother drafting a team defense if I can choose from about 20 each week depending on who has a good matchup?

I think I got the 2 best IDPs. (1 point per tackle and .5points per assisted tackle.)
