Given that it's a 12 team league, I think you did ok...While you picked a bunch of players that have done recently, I'm not a huge fan of either Trent Green nor Plax. Green's numbers are bound to bust eventually, and Plax I'm just not sold on. Caddy and Julius were of GREAT value where you got them, In a 12 team league, not having two solids at RB will kill you.I'm also not a huge huge fan of Steve Smith. I predict his numbers will shrink to around 1200 yards or so, which are still good, but not the master season he had last year. Keyshawn will steal some of his juice.Good TE's.Keep Coles, he'll be better than last year since he'll have a more solid line and better QB situation for himself. He's better than Bruce I feel.Def... meh, depends on your scoring system, but Green Bay isn't as terrible as they are listed.

His red zone weapons in LJ on the swing pass and Tony G on the short routes are 2nd only to Tomlinson-Gates in San Diego.So I would venture to guess Trent's TD numbers will be around 21-22... something like that.
