How's this fantasy football team look?
Twelve team league, I was drafting 8th:
QB: Tom Brady
RB: DeAngelo Williams
RB: Pierre Thomas
WR: Andre Johnson
WR: Sidney Rice
WR: Hines Ward
TE: Visanthe Shiancoe
K: Matt Prater
DEF: Green Bay
Bench:
Vince Young
Joseph Addai
Montario Hardesty
Devin Aromashodu
Devin Hester
Chris Cooley
I actually feel pretty good about this one. I could not grab a top RB, so I went with reliability (Thomas and Williams) and upside (Hardesty) I nabbed both the defense I had first on my board and my top ranked WR. I did not reach for anyone, although Aaron Rodgers was available in the first and I was tempted, I took Johnson and got Brady in the fifth round, so I was happy about that. Some might think I reached for Green Bay, but I had my starting lineup plus a backup WR and RB and they were number 1 on my board.
here are my picks by round:
Johnson
Williams
Rice
Thomas
Brady
Ward
Shiancoe
Addai
Green Bay
Aromashodu
Hester
Young
Cooley
Hardesty
Prater
Atrain: I have Thomas higher than most. I think he'll got more touches than last year. If they ever made him a featured back, which is possible, he's a top five RB.
Messykat: Yeah, I knew someone would mention Green Bay, but I grabbed them in round 9, and there was a few DEF that starting going off the board before my pick, so I had a feeling they would not be around till round 10.

Ya think?!? :)
Ok, seriously, this was a very good draft. I have no idea why Thomas is ranked so low - he's a great feature tailback in a high octane offense and even has some PPR value. I don't get that. I also think Addai was a great pick when you got him.
My minor markdowns are just at DEF and TE. Cooley could easily outplay Shiancoe this season, so this is a pick that clearly could have waited. Very deep at TE this year. And as for DEF, I generally wait as long as I can, simply because I have good luck playing matchups. There's no match-up proof DEF right now, and I think it's always better to load up on RB/WR, at least before the 10th round.

The fantasy team certainly isnt a bad one. The only place where im weary about is tom brady at qb. He is arguing with the pats about his contract right now and it might hurt his performance. But then again, cmon its tom brady. The pack attack defense will be solid this year. And the rest of your team looks good. Just watch pierre thomas because although hes a good rb, pay attention to the split time between him and reggie bush since reggie put up solid numbers last year. Good luck.
