Kevin Curtis is out with sports hernia you might wanna drop him and pick up a Desean Jackson or Josh Morgan. Looks solid though i am not convinced with Turner and Forte because their respective olines arent the greatest.

Looks to be an average team to me. Looks like you ended up with Gore in the 1st round. He fell to me at 12 and I passed in my league. It all depends on him. I'm not sold on Bowe/Berrian either. They have some crappy QB's tossin to them this year. Cincy is also in shambles so we'll see how Carson does.

PPR leage?? I always do PPR so i look at teams that way. Berrian/Bowe may not catch too many balls but they may get the deep TD's which would make them more valuable in non-PPR formats.

Palmer could be somewhat of a sleeper. He was right up there with Manning and Brady before last year and he'll have Chris Henry back.

Your top 3 RBs are questionable because of the offenses they have to deal with. The Niners, Falcons and Bears all figure to be pretty bad with sub-par offensive lines so that could hurt your cause.

Braylon Edwards is a stud but Cliff Levingston wouldn't be surprised if Anderson slid in his production a bit which could limit Edwards. Boew is a talent too but will have Croyle throwing to him and he's not the #1 target on that team. Berrian figures to be open a bit but they'll focus on the running game and Jackson is far from proven.

Dallas Clark is a nice tight end option but could be limited in his production if Harrison can stay healthy. Watson is a nice backup but isn't a primary target in NE's offense and was very inconsistent last year.

Gould is a good kicker but you know as well as Cliff Levingston does that the Bears will have trouble moving the ball and thus may not give Gould lots of chances to score for you.

Seattle's defense is a nice pick as they always seem to be able to generate QB pressure which leads to INTs, sacks, etc.

Cliff Levingston would say it's a decent/average team for a 12 team league, but things can change wildly in fantasy football.

Not a PPR league. I didn't really want Gore, but there wasn't really anyone else worth picking at 9, IMO.

I do feel good about my team. Gore may not do great, but I feel both Turner and Forte will surprise.

My WRs seem to be the weakest link with a lot of wildcards in Bowe, Berrian, Curtis, etc, but each and everyone one of my WRs have the ability to surprise a lot of people.

your runningbacks are terrible. your QBs besides palmer are suspect. i mean, anything miami sucks right now. and campbell doesnt even know his coaches offensive system. its all new. youve got some good receivers, but the kicker is ok. risky though.
