Cheers.

At the moment I see no reason to give up on Budinger for any of those players, he looks good in preseason and I really think he is worth a shot just as much as the other guys you are thinking about (If not more).

As for your drafting, I think you did very good, Jennings, where you got him, should be a great steal. The only one I might drop is Varejao, if you can pick up Hibbert, McGee, Speightes or Deandre Jordan, I would take them instead because of their upside.

Wright is the one player who's guaranteed to see minutes.

So maybe get Wright for Budinger?

Should I keep Sessions or try get another guard? Same with Chris Andersen?

I would drop Budinger for Wright. Maybe Budinger will turn out all right as a basketball player, but I don't see him having much value in fantasy this year.

Like most rookies with some talent expect for him to drop a nice statline in a handful of games, but over the course of a season / week I feel like Wright will give you more.

Pietrus should see his short term value increase with Shard being out with his 10 game suspension, and of the other guys you listed I'd monitor Andray Blatche.

I like Deroz because if it's a Yahoo! league, he can play 3 positions. That is a big deal to me. After that Wright because he's supposed to be more focused after being told he's only playing SF this year.

On a side note, your team looks pretty good, but your FT% is a mess. You have guys who shoot amazingly, and guys who shoot terribly. I'd trade Emeka for someone who shoots better from the stripe, unless you plan on booting FT%, then i'd trade Lopez. Also, another PG (or anyone with assists) should be a priority.

T-Will killer game today, but dropped Budinger for Corey Brewer. Getting decent numbers and will have the shooting gaurd possy.

I'm thinking Varejao out for Jordan (Clip) or Luc Richard!
