    There are always mock drafts. So youcan get a feel for how to draft.

    as far as your list. I don't think Wayne is putting up big numbers. But not a bad core.

    opinions
    Simple rule of thumb in any FF draft, never take a Kicker, D or TE until the final 3 rounds; TE/D first, Kicker last. Only have 2 qb's, and stock up on RB and WR's early and often.

    Saints D sucks, drop them; and pick up a rb, you don't have near enough of them. If he's still available get Willis McGahee, he's going to get all the goal line looks in Denver, and there will be plenty of them in a run first O like John Fox's. Atl D will do you just fine, but keep an eye on the texans and Denvers D, theyc could jump up and be better. If you don't like the matchup, you can probably find one you like in any given week.

    You have to many Bears on your team not name Forte. Drop Cutler(you'll never not start Brady) and pick up a rb, look at a guy like Hightower in Was, he'll do you good. Then on Brady's bye, go get cutler again, he'll be there. Keep Bennet as a bye week guy, he'll be the #1 target before long.

    After At some point you need to drop/trade one of the TE's. Look at their bye weeks, which ever comes first, trade/drop the other after that bye week.

    You don't have enough RB's; Foster is going to be hampered w/a bad hammy, so you'll need someone else when he's hurt. Green-Ellis is nice, but he's in NE and you never know who's going to get points; so again look around, Sproles would be nice, McGahee, Hightower, if available Pierre Thomas, pick up the #2 rb in Hou also, again Foster goes down, they'll be getting all the carries.

    thanks for this advice


    I traded Saints D for Bears D and dropped ATL D
    want to drop Rice for Julio Jones (wasn't available at the Draft position when I picked Bennett and Rice)

    drop Olsen or Davis as TE?


    I will take a look at McGahee.

    Well, I hope you played James Jones against us. Ugh.

    Like others have said, go with a RB first. Some years I even get 2 RBs before my QB. Especially this year the QB pool is SO deep. Last season I picked Ray Rice first round Roddy White third round and Big Ben third round. I know that sounds bad luckily I got super Cam late in the rounds and he was a huge sleeper. White had his weeks and for a 12 man league my team was pretty stacked I got second. I also was lucky with the pick up of Akers. A lot of its luck but like others have said use your knowledge and go RB first.

    PS, sorry I did not see there was a second page before I posted and also just noticed how old this is! My bad, I just get pumped for fantasy :/
