Okay, I had my draft this morning. Thanks to everyone who answered my "Fantasy Questions" yesterday. Here's how it turned out... QB - Marc Bulger QB - Trent Green RB - Larry Johnson RB - Domanick Davis RB - Fred Taylor WR - Randy Moss WR - Plaxico Burress WR - Eddie Kennison WR - Troy Williamson TE - Randy McMichael K - Jay Feely D - Seattle Overall, I'm pretty happy. Injury concerns for Davis and Taylor and the retirement of Roaf make my RB corps worriesome. Pretty happy with my WR's. Sad that Cooley was taken at TE two picks before me. I have a true "feast or famine" team this year.
My #1 rule in fantasy football it to take RB-RB in the 1st 3 rounds. My #2 rule is never to draft Fred Taylor. He just can't stay healthy. I think it's a solid team. If Davis can stay healthy he should do well in that system. LJ of course is nice. Moss I think will have a bounce back year. Bulger and Green is a fantastic duo. I'd play the matchups with that. I'd give you a 8/10 Not big on Taylor as your #3 RB and Kennison as your #3 WR.

Fred Taylor scares me, too, but I'm going to roll the dice. I'm going to try to trade Green or Bulger for a back at some point. We'll see how it goes.
i think your team is great. Keep Green but somehow make a trade that gets rid of taylor but besides that awesome
i think your team is good...taylor, like you said would be a concern...i would be careful about davis cause he may not be back in time...and the back ups are apparently kissing the coaches butts to the point of where they love them...

If you make 2 or 3 pickups off wire that pan out, you may even win, but probably a losing hand there
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Your Wr SUCK.</div> There's room to improve, but essentially I have four #1 receivers on their respective teams. As I said, I can probably trade Green or Bulger for another #1 threat at either RB or receiver. I'm not too worried yet. Every team looks good (or bad) on paper until the season actually gets rolling.
I won't beat Taylor anymore, but in reality, its nice to have 3 feature backs. With so many by-committee teams anymore, you have three ballhogs if they stay healthy. As long as your other two don't run into injuries, I think they will do fine and Taylor will only be needed for a week or two. It would be nice to have another decent WR somehow, but there is always what-ifs afterwards. Looks pretty decent.
You guys wouldn't believe how far Terrell Owens fell in this draft. He was easily the top rated remaining player on the board for two rounds before someone finally took a chance on him. The guy who ended up taking him actually did so two picks before me. I was ready to pull the trigger at that point just from a risk/reward standpoint.
