This is my first serious league I am in. Live draft was earlier today. I'm sure there are some gurus on this forum somewhere. Hows my team lookin?

QB: Aaron Rodgers and Ryan Fitzpatrick
RB: DeAngelo Williams, Beanie Wells, Cedric Benson, and Mikel LeShoure
WR: Victor Cruz, Wes Welker, Marques Colston, Jerome Simpson, and Alshon Jeffery
TE: Jermichael Finley and Martellus Bennett
D/ST: Bears and Giants
K: Neil Rackers and Mike Nugent

Plenty of info in there and some fantasy guys who will happily evaluate your team(s).

Well, you've already drafted so this is for next year.

I am a strong proponent of only drafting 1 kicker and 1 defense and I think most people are. If you have different rules in your league and you HAVE to draft 2 of each, then ignore this.

2nd, you have 3 very good WR and I would've used two of those selections on RB's. Quality RB's are very difficult to come by whereas WR are not hard to find.

Now, personally, if you've got Rodgers, how many games is Fitzpatrick going to play?...ideally just 1, when Rodgers in on bye. So why even have a backup QB? I'd rather have a RB like, in your case, Ryan Williams in case Wells gets hurt (it's certainly happened before) That's more a personal opinion, one a lot of folks won't share, but that's just me.

Overall I could see your team being really strong if Wells/Benson perform, but you could have some headaches at RB if they don't.

Appreciate the advice, man. I had the first pick so I had to go with Rodgers.

You're welcome. Good luck this season! My concern for your team is the Running Back position. There are a lot of maybes there which could come to hurt you.
