    Standard yahoo 10 team non-PPR league (5th pick).

    QB: Matt Ryan
    WR1: Andre Johnson
    WR2: Dwyane Bowe
    WR3: Vincent Jackson
    RB1: Steven Jackson
    RB2: Ronnie Brown
    TE: Visanthe Shiancoe
    K: Jason Elam
    DST: Jets
    BN: Matt Schaub
    BN: Kevin Walter
    BN: Ted Ginn Jr
    BN: Pierre Thomas
    BN: Darren McFadden
    BN: Chargers

    I took a chance on SJax in the first but after the first 4 guys go off the board there's another 4 or 5 guys who are pretty even and SJax was good at the end of last season.

    Does this lineup look ok?

      Your starting line up at WR & RB look very sound and the rest of your starting roster is average, but your bench appears to be in need of some fine tuning. You may want to check the waiver wire for some bargain shopping, with this being a ten team league, you know that there's someone who slipped through.

        I don't mean to be rude because I appreciate the feedback, but I would have thought my bench was fairly solid all things being equal...

        The only issue I really had was drafting both Texans wideouts, so I'm kinda riding on the fortunes of Schaub a little more than I'd like to (funnily enough I took him as my backup QB as well).

        I was shocked to get Pierre Thomas in the 6th but he was too good to pass up with the 55th pick.

        Walter is pretty solid in the mould of a Welker for fantasy purposes (I figure 200-odd more yards and maybe a couple less scores this season although a full year of a healthy Schaub could make him better with defences keying on AJ) and Ginn Jr is my fling at snaring a 3rd year breakout (took him in the 12th round after most of the other sexy sleeper WR's had gone).

        Any thoughts on who you think is a bit iffy would be nice... ;)
