    hey lucky13 - serious depth at WR and I like the RB handcuffs picks.

    Tannehill is another story.. he's got sneaky potential for 500 yards rushing, but cracking 30 TD and more than 4000 yards passing is a risky bet.

    Whats your waiver wire look like at QB? I'd like to see if we have some upside talent still there.... not likely in a 14 team league but copy paste it for us. If nothing is there you have plenty of Ammo to move up at QB with ease which we can work out later.

    Do me a favor and read this post (link) - be sure to update your signature as mentioned in that post =)

    Thanks Kurt. I'll make sure to get the signature updated soon.

    Waiver Wire for QB's still available:

    EJ Manuel
    Ryan Fitzpatrick
    Michael Vick
    Jake Locker
    Matt Schaub
    Matt Cassell
    Geno Smith
    Chad Henne


    All others look to be for sure backups.

    Since you waited so long for your first running back, you'll need some luck to fall your way

    T-Rich
    Bell
    Jackson
    Pierce

    These 4 could do some damage if things fall the right way. Hopefully a full year in the Colts system will help T-Rich. Jackson has to stay healthy, Bell has to keep Bush off the field and Pierce has to play lights out while Rice is out to earn more carries.

    None of the quarterbacks on the wire are any better than Tannehill. I've been hearing some good things from the Dolphins media, though, so maybe this year could be his year.

    I'll give it a C+/B- for now, but this team could swing either way depending on various factors.

    Ya Greg he need RB to hit and QB to hit.. must have been on the tail end of a QB run.

    Also, with all that WR power, he could make a trade for QB or RB.. he's got to have the deepest WR core in his league.

    What's the TE waiver wire look like? Post the top 20 =) - I'd rather see you with a backup TE since we don't know if Gronk is even going to play week 1.

    Also, add Shayne Graham to the PLAYER TRACKER - Dude might not win the camp battle.

    Hell, go ahead and post the RB waiver wire too - top 40 - I like Jeremy Hill over Starks if he's available.

    If you can somehow sucker someone into taking Bowe off your hands, I'd try that to. He's going to continue to waste away in that offense.

    Someone dropped Matt Bryant so I picked him up and dropped Shayne Graham.


    Someone also dropped Garrett Graham TE from Texans and he is available now. Would anyone advise dropping someone to pick him up as a backup TE?

    Maybe you get lucky and Vick starts in Ny and is available as a waiver?

    Vick is available as of this moment.
     
  10. 86WARD

    86WARD -

    But he's not named starter yet...you could gamble on him and stash him on your roster if you have a spot...

    No to graham ....

    And to Vick... Not now. You could add him to the player tracker though .. ;)

    People are putting too much stock in G. Graham. C.J. Fiedorowicz or Ryan Griffin are the guys to keep an eye on.
