JR In Ann Arbor
A few years ago I was in something like five leagues, which I found to be awful (e.g., who do you root for on Sunday?). So, now I'm back to one league--this is my only team. (10 team league, yardage/TD scoring, I had #7 pick).

RB: Joseph Addai
RB: Selvin Young
WR: Terrell Owens
WR: Steve Smith
WR: Brandon Marshall
TE: Vernon Davis

Bench:
QB: Aaron Rodgers

Your best WRs are all hotheads. I hope they stay out of the doghouse for you this year.

Your RBs also scare me. Addai is great, Young has Hall and eventually Torain taking carries away, Brown is great but will be losing carries to R. Williams, Rice isn't a starter but could be huge if Willis isn't healthy. Kevin Smith would be good if he wasn't made of glass. You're going to need stuff to happen to get much production out of these guys.

It's all relative to the other teams, but it looks like a lineup that should make the playoffs barring injuries. I'm leary of the Denver RBs, you never know who's going to play. Ronnie Brown could be a steal if he regains his pre-injury form, when he was one of the league's leading rushers.

I also hate Young as a RB2 in this format. It's so much easier just to avoid the Denver headache altogether, particularly when it's easy to do so in a 10teamer. Brown & Smith are ok backups I guess. Are you guys all drafting Rice out of 'McGahee spite'? I don't get it. Addai falling in your lap at #7 is pretty ridiculous.

McGahee has been having a fallout with the Ravens this season, is starting a bit injured, and Rice has been impressing the team to the point of making it a possible RBBC type of situation.

I got Brown late--maybe 9th round. I'm hoping he will be the starter over Young on my team.

As for Denver RB's, I hear you guys. I've been burned in the past and vowed I wouldn't go near Shanahan. But I couldn't avoid it--I couldn't get any better value. I had McGahee targeted, and he was taken the pick before. I guess I could have taken Edge who was still on the board, but I see him on a severe decline.
