Drafted (in order of selection):
Santana Moss, WSH
Ben Roethlisberger, PIT

Eddie Kennison, KC

Ben Watson, NE
Michael Clayton, TB
Antonio Bryant, SF
Brad Johnson, MIN
Priest Holmes, KC
Alex Smith, SF
Ok, you asked!

RBs:

Caddy and Ronnie Brown...great fantasy RBs.

I had Willis McGahee last year and he KILLED me. At least he's #3 on your RB depth chart. If he DOES get back to his old self, great for you...but if he's like the 2005 model again...you're in trouble.

Holmes will likely retire. If he does come back, he'll be playing a limited role like Marshal Faulk so he doesn't have a bad-injury. LJ is the man there now...plus we don't know how losing Saunders will affect KC. If I were you, I'd play on Holmes' name value and try to use him as part of a trade for a QB. Maybe package him and Alex Smith for a QB upgrade.



QBs:

You do need a QB. I don't think Alex Smith will ever be a good pro QB, especially not this year. He was the worst QB I've ever seen play...Heath Shuler looked like a Hall-of-Famer compared to him. I really expect Dilfer to play over Smith, if not at the beginning of the season, they'll pull Smith for Dilfer if they're smart. That's sad.

Big Ben doesn't throw a lot, so he's a bad fantasy QB. Even with Bettis gone, Willie Parker will still get more runs than Ben throws...plus we don't know what will happen when he gets hit on the screwed-together head. He's worth a #2 QB slot but you need to find a good #1 QB.

Brad Johnson was good last year, could work out but he doesn't have many weapons around him.



TE:

Heath Miller with Ben Watson backing him up at TE....GREAT CHOICES.




WRs:

Moss....great choice obviously.

Kennison...great WR, usually overlooked but Saunders absense (?) Should work out for you.

Clayton...I owned Clayton in his rookie year and he was a GREAT sleeper that helped me a lot, but last year he was invivible. He has the talent, we'll see.

Bryant...I owned Antonio Bryant when he played for Cleveland last year. He had fights with Dilfer over his number of catches and he's a selfish guy. On a losing team, he could blow up and if Dilfer is throwing to him...look out! He is talented though.


DEFENSES: Great choices!


KICKER: Do you have one or am I misssing him?



My grades for you:

RB: B
QB: C
WR: B
TE: A
DEF: A+
K: Incomplete
