This is a league of 10 people... we all put in $20 and Top 2 payout. I had the 3rd pick in the draft - LT and LJ went 1 and 2... I passed up on Stephen Jackson and took Manning. I went unconventional and took a QB in round 1, but Manning is just a machine, especially since I picked up Harrison and Clark

Quarterbacks
- Peyton Manning (starting)
- Daunte Culpepper

Running Backs
- Brandon Jacobs (starting)
- Ahman Green (starting)
- LaMont Jordan
- Warrick Dunn
- Michael Turner

Wide Receivers
- Marvin Harrison (starting)
- Javon Walker (starting)
- Chris Chambers (starting)
- Eddie Kennison

Tight Ends
- Dallas Clark (starting)
- Randy McMichael

Kicker
- Matt Stover

Defense
- Jacksonville

i took a risk... for the past 3 years, ive been doing fantasy football with these guys and the guy that has manning has alwyas had mediocre runnign backs and has won the league... so i figured ill just go with the pattern... and with Harrison and Clark, I figured it was worth passing up on Jackson

i think Ahman Green will do well this year - personally I think I got the steal of the draft with him - but time will only tell if Im a genius or an idiot

I don't know about Ahman Green, dude is a couple of years past his prime. I think he'll be feasible but you shouldn't expect all that much. You really need some breaks with your RB's or you'll be in trouble.

are passing TDs 6 points? what is scoring? I have played about 25 seasons since 2000 and I don't think Manning has ever won in any of the leagues.

I have Green as a 3rd RB in my league. I think he'll be decent overall, but starting him consistently might be a huge risk.

you think I should start my other RBs? Jordan? Dunn?


Na, because Green SHOULD be the man in Houston as long as he stays healthy. Jordan and Dunn will be splitting carries all year. I just don't see Wali Lundy or Dayne taking that many carries away from Green as opposed to Rhodes/Norwood taking Dunn/Jordan's carries.

remember that Rhodes is suspended the first 4 games, so Jordan may be a week 1 start against Det.

The only reason I took Green was basically because that OLine has been together for a little while now and I cant imagine Gary Kubiak having a bad running game this year. I know Green isnt Stephen Jackson, but I do feel that I got a good pickup with him... but like you said ADD101 as long as he stays healthy of course

I think you made a bad move with Manning... but your team still turned out well. Jacobs is a #1 back and your WRs are excellent.
