WR situation also isn't that great either...How many teams were in your league?</div>10 teams I think.Yeah, thats where I got kind of screwed, but I picked my 2 backup running backs too late and thats what happens, you get a player who will split downs (MB III) and a backup (Mike Bell). With my wide outs I have one of the best in the game in Starvin Marvin, I have Brandon Marshall who I think will have a really good season considering last year in his rookie season he did well and this year I expect him to do really good. I also a solid wide out in Chris Chambers, then I got rookie Anthony Gonzo who, from what I have heard, is going to be playing the slot in the Colts offense which should give him some good numbers. With Brandon Jones, I was paying attention and it auto drafted him, he isn't that bad.I just got offered a trade - Tom Brady for Michael Vick. I rejected it and commented 'HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL NAW!'

Randy Moss, Reggie Brown Philip Rivers and Plaxico Burress are consistent fantasy football players we can count on? Since when....Rivers will suffer in TD's because of Tomlinson...no doubt about that. Any fool knows that.I would try and package Rivers with a Plaxico/Moss/Reggie Brown to upgrade your QB position with a Carson Palmer/Tom Brady/ Donovan Mcnabb/Dree Brees/Marc Bulger. May not get one of them but I'd try, If a team isn't as deep add a Julius Jones to sweeten the deal. Then I'd try and package another one of your WR's and Ronnie Brown for a upgrade at the RB position..some names to look for: Brian Westbrook/Rudi Johnson/Stephen Jackson. Again, may not be possible but that's what I'd try and do.</div>Randy Moss - now playing with the best qb in the nfl from the worst qb in the nfl. How wont he be great?Reggie Brown- 3 year vet now and the number one option in a pass first offensePhilip Rivers- Had a great season last year and will be more experienced while TDs for the chargers are in no shortage.Plaxico Burress- Now that Tiki has retired, Eli will be forced to throw much more often likely and this guy is his favorite WRI dont claim to know fantasy football but I know REAL football very well and I expect all those players to have pretty good seasons.

What are you talking about? TD's still won't be a problem, because I don't see Tomlinson repeating his great season again...I see nothing wrong with my team.And there were 10 teams.</div>To me, if ya in a ten team league..having Rivers on your team isn't a bad thing..but ain't a great thing either. are there 10 starting QB's better then Rivers? Debatable really..but even if their aren't he's in the 9-10 range...so how is Rivers a strength to a team if you may have the worst QB starter in your league?And I still remain my thoughts on Plaxico, Moss and Reggie Brown. It's a decent core..but all3 are questionmarks. I like to have players I can count on..and I wouldn't feel safe counting on those 3 at the WR position. I don't think that core is good enough to wn any league.
There is a big difference between real football and fantasy football. Phillip Rivers is a great QB and wins games, but I wouldn't want him as my starter on a fantasy team. Om Moss, he'll have a nice year, but every Pats WR does under Brady. He spreads the ball around like no one else and Lawrence Marony takes away a lot of his TDs too. Franks Gore is an injury waiting to happen. Basically everything Combs said is right. Your team is solid, but if its only 10 team its not good enough to win a championship.

Randy used to be the 2nd best WR in the game, and now he has the 2nd best regular season QB throwing him passes. I might now win, but I think I'll be atleast top 3 in my league if everything works out as I expect it to.And starting QB's really don't matter that much unless you got Peyton Manning on your team, or a really crappy starting QB. Philip Rivers is more than solid, and he might even improve considering last year was his first starting year in the NFL? Did you think that possibility through?

New England has never had a really good WR so maybe that's why the spread the ball out so much. I think they'll give Randy alot of looks to keep him satisfied... edit: Oh dang, I forgot about that.
