You're good at QB and WR, but the biggest success in fantasy football is at the RB position. You have no solid RB, no decent backup QB. I would say you need to find any way to upgrade at RB, maybe throw Harrison or Willaims in with Green or Foster and try to get a more solid #1 RB, otherwise I think it will be a long season for your fantasy team.

I wouldn't count on him to carry enough of a load for my team to be successful without at least a second RB that is at least on the same level as he is. But for the most part no Maroney is not a #1 RB, that right is reserved for guys like LT, LJ, Jackson, Alexander, Parker, Johnson, Gore, need I go on?

QB: tom brady is fine. trent green is meh... but he's bench player on your team so it's fine.
WR: your starting WR corp is awesome but where the hell is your bench players? ashlie lelie? he's crap! you need some capable backup for your WRs!!!
RB: your RB corp blows.. maroney is okay but he could get injured again.. ahmad green has past his prime. he's a supporting RB at best. Deshaun Foster is uber-injury prone and he's going to lose his job to deangloe williams. not a good pickup. tatum bell is meh.. your RB corp is terrible in my opinion. i would seriously trade tom brady and one of your backs for a better back and get a decent QB in return.
TE: your tight end position is fine.
K: you only need one kicker............. drop john kasey and pickup a WR or RB in the market or try to trade him......
Def: again.. you only need one good defense... new england is great.. buffalo? meh... they're not as great.... drop it and pick up a WR or RB..

If Maroney can stay healthy for the entire season, you got yourself a good starting set. Your depth kind of stinks though; in a ten-team league there are much better options probably still on the waiver wire. Also, you probably should have diversified your team; you have too many Pats players.
