    Here's my summary:

    Iggy: Above average, good PPR backs, but lower catch total WRs.

    Mr. E: Below average, has any Dallas HB since Emmitt had a good enough season to rationalize where you picked Felix?

    Murrell: Above average, a little soft at WR

    Scik: Average, high ceiling

    Me: Above average, The Rapist is so underrated.

    MB: Average, only due to the strength of getting CJ/Rivers

    Puck: Below average, can't win without RBs.

    Theo: Average at best

    17A: Below average

    Mack: Below average but high ceiling, a lot can go real well or real bad.

    Colston's knee is beat up but washed up is a stretch.

    The only back I would've taken at four was Ray Rice. I don't trust backs in fantasy football - even guys as good as Chris Johnson.

    I feel like Charles will take a big step back this year. I think the Chiefs will only win 5 or 6 games.

    If Stafford stays healthy, Megatron will absolutely dominate. If Stafford gets injured like always, he'll still put up great numbers.

    Kenny Britt sucks

    Soss is right. I wouldn't call my team below average, but my team is total boom/bust. I have depth at RB to trade though, and if Stafford gets hurt, Freeman is a very good backup. Britt, Dez, and Andre are tough to trust to stay healthy.

    And if you think Britt sucks, I don't know what to tell you. He got auto-picked for me, but he's still a beast.

    Over 230 catches in a backup role.

    1,250 total yards in a backup role.

    He's now Dallas' main back ahead of Choice and Murray. He'll receive goalline carries too.

    They should have a very, very good passing game which will open things up for him.

    What back was on the board that was better than him besides maybe Peyton Hillis?

    Shonn Greene
    Jahvid Best
    Mark Ingram
    Ryan Mathews
    Ahmad Bradshaw
    LeGarrette Blount

    ???

    Except for Best and Bradshaw, none of those guys are going to catch many passes.

    Josh Freeman has to play a big boy schedule this year.

    I don't know if you're a Rutgers fan or what, but Kenny Britt has done nothing in the NFL for you to call him a beast: he's never topped 800 yards, 50 catches, or 10 TDs.

    Dez Bryant has a lot of potential to do big things. Andre Johnson is a hell of a player.

    I LOLed. :rofl:

    Who knows, this could be an epic year for Megatron if his BFF Stafford can stay off the gurney.

    I'd call him a beast who gets injured. When he's on the field, he can put up some massive stats for you.

    I'm not trying to argue that my team is incredible either, but what's wrong with taking a wideout that has the potential to be the best in the game?

    It's not like receiving yards and TDs are worth less than rushing yards and rushing TDs.

    I had a plan - Iggy took the back that I was hoping for with the fourth pick and Calvin Johnson was my top rated player after him.

    Random backs come out of no where every year.

    A healthy DeAngelo Williams put up great numbers with Jake Delhomme as his QB. That's a big if, but I'll take my chances.

    Matt Ryan has a ton of weapons around him and I landed him later that I thought he'd be around.

    Matt Hasselbeck uses the tight end a lot. Jared Cook finally has a shot with Bo Scaife leaving Tennessee. He'll also spend a lot of time in the slot. I expect big things from him, especially after ending last season on a hot streak.

    Britt had 9 TDs and 775 yards 73 targets in 12 games at age 22. You'll want him after he gets 100 yards and a touchdown this week.

    I'll find replacements when he's hurt/suspended, and when he's on the field, I'll reap the benefits.

    I admit, my team has the possibility to blow up in my face. But I'm going to play the odds and hope that all my young guys don't get hurt/suck. There are so many high upside guys on my team, and I have good enough RB depth to handle a McFadden/Bradshaw injury.

    I'm fine with Vincent Jackson and Calvin Johnson.

    Best wideout prospect since CJ and Randy Moss. I don't care if that ginger is throwing him the ball. He'll produce.

    Jones has Matt Ryan throwing him the ball.

    AJ Green has Andy Dalton.

    I did take a flier on Green in my money league though.

    I had Green rated as a #4 WR option, nothing higher. He's too risky with Rusty Dalton chucking him the rock....

    It's not like I took Green in the first few rounds. I took him relatively late.

    Who else is Dalton going to throw to? No one.
