The team is heavy on WR and RB, as you can see, and this could help set up trades in the early week of the season. Overall, we couldn't be happier, and we urge you to follow our lead and draft these players yourselves. You'll dominate just like we will.

I sure hope for your sake that L.J. gets his butt in a uniform. Norwood is a good pick, i really expected him to have a good season but without Vick there's a little concern. However, Harrington may turn out to be a better passer in this Atlanta system and open up Norwood's running game.
Anyway, good luck to you.
I did the autodraft and just took Larry right out of the mix. That stuff scares me.
I am interested in seeing how Cadillac does this year with the Vet at QB. That could be a a nice value.

I bet you're happy LJ signed. You can breathe a sigh of relief!
All things considered, I think you walked away with a good team. But that's the beauty of fantasy football drafts: everyone thinks they walked away with the best team!
Good luck to you,
Tom
Yeah see I wished him in for you!:)
I did not want any type of unfair edge and potential excuses this season. :)
Way to go by keeping the faith. It sure does make for a better NFL when the best players are out there.
