I think your TE's are weak compared to what you could have had. Clark has AVERAGED only 31 receptions over the past 3 years. Not good. Oddly enough, Miller has averaged 36.5 receptions the past 2 years. Both are very overrated.
Betts pick up is a good one, if Portis goes down, Betts could easily hit 100+ yards a game.
You have a sleeper in there in Braylon Edwards...keep in mind, this is his magical 3rd season, and last year he had 61 catches for 884 yards and 6 td's. (his last 5 games he had 3 td's) He's due for a good 75+ catch season and 1100 yards.
Javon Walker is solid, and Ward will have a rebound year with Tomlin throwing more.
Gore is a super stud, but Adrian Peterson is overrated. Peterson has not overthrown Taylor who had a monster season last year (over 1200 yards in 15 games). Peterson has talent, no doubt, but he will be used at best 50% of the time. It's not very often a rookie comes in and puts up top 5-7 back numbers, and everyone seems to think Peterson will, well, he won't. He won't have the chance to do it. So I'd put Benson in there. Even brown is a better option, and I'm not high on him.
About Curtis, I steered away from all Eagles wr's because they don't have a clear cut #1. Sure Curtis MIGHT be that guy, but that will only translate to 60 catches and 800 yards at best more than likely. McNabb spreads the ball around too much for any eagles wr to put up big numbers. (other than Westbrook)
