My roster for the Weblogger Fantasy Football League:
Favre, Brett (QB-GB)
Horn, Joe (WR-NO)
Rice, Jerry (WR-Oak)
Green, Ahman (RB-GB)
Williams, Ricky (RB-Mia)
Gardner, Rod (WR-Was)
Bench McNair, Steve (QB-Ten)
Pittman, Michael (RB-TB)
Price, Peerless (WR-Buf)
Walls, Wesley (TE-Car)
Conclusion: Eh.
I like many of these players, but most aren’t on teams I (can) watch most of the time, so it’s hard to get into it. I’m pleased about Michael Pittman, because I think he’s a good match for Gruden, and Joe Horn was good for my last season. Jerry Rice, Ahman Green and Brett Favre are going to be my best chances to ‘watch’ my team, given my location, and I like those guys, so I guess it’s all good.
Given the number of times I trade players during a season, it’s not like any of this is written in stone anyway.
Update:
I missed my kickers and Defense:
Elam, Jason (K-Den)
Vinatieri, Adam (K-NE)
Very cool. I like Elam a lot, and he’s my only home-town boy. Overall, I’ve got 4 of the 25 top-ranked players going into the season. We’ll see.
Cleveland (DEF-Cle)
New York (DEF-NYJ)
On the other hand, I really don’t know what to think about these two. Ugh.
(Then again, since I did no prep, no research, and let Yahoo auto-pick my team for me, it’s not like I can really bitch. What I really need to do is sit down with Jackie and see what she thinks of the team and the players that are still available. I see some names I like in the free agents list, but she knows some of the guys I’ve got better than I do.)
