Looks like Ryan Matthews will be out for week one. I just picked up Benson. Looks like he's about to sign (and probably start) with the Packers.

Me? Worried about you? Ha.

I predict a week one score of 140-60.

As for you PAPinhead, I look at your roster and think to myself: Wow, he really IS a pinhead!

For the yahoo league, I think it's kinda crap that the draft date was changed without sending a pm to the people in it. I had set an alarm on my phone for the original date and was looking forward to it happening tomorrow and looked and found out it had already drafted and I have the worst team I have ever seen. If I could drop out of it I would because it's not a fair showing and I'm going to be dead last even if I maintain it, so I don't really see the point in even wasting my time with it. I would not have personally drafted a single one of those players so it's not even really my team. Let me know if you just want me to drop all the players it will let me drop so you guys can just have at it, because I got royally screwed.

I'm not in the Yahoo league, but I wouldn't give up if I were you. A couple years ago on CBS, I got screwed pretty bad. My team was on auto draft and it took 2 kickers in the first 4 rounds. Overall, my team was awful at almost every position.

I wound up picking up Cam Newton and Jimmy Graham from the free agent list and nearly made the playoffs. Finished 8-6 with that team. You never know what's out there on waivers. Just curious, what's your team look like? Did you get anyone at all to work with?

My QBs
Peyton Manning- not sure whether he is going to do well and wouldn't have him as my starting QB until I actually saw how he performed.
Joe Flacco- trash

RBs
Chris Johnson- has a chance to be decent, but based off last year it's definitely not worth a first round pick.
Trent Richardson- already hurt and having surgery and plays for the Browns.
Isaac Redman- doubt he's gonna do much.
Mikel LeShoure- hurt and not necessarily even a starter.
LaMichael James- not even a starter.
Joe McKnight- not a starter.

WRs
Hakeem Nicks- injured
Julio Jones- he's ok
Reggie Wayne- old reciever on a horrible team with a rookie QB...no thanks.
Mike Williams(T- not good, not horrible, but wouldn't have drafted him as a starter.
Vincent Brown- never even heard of the guy and with all the other recievers in SD I highly doubt he will be worth a damn.

TE
Aaron Hernandez- wrong TE from the patriots. Ok option but would have went for someone else instead.
Jared Cook- not a good option IMO.

K
Dan Carpenter- a kicker is a kicker, but I doubt miami will even get in field goal range very often.

D
steelers-


Like I said, would not have drafted this team, and I may win a couple games if I'm lucky and these guys heal up and perform like some think they do but I'm not counting on it. Other than Chris Johnson, my starters would only be backups on my normal teams or I would have avoided them all together. Especially since out of all those players, only 6 of them are not in the starting lineup.

Dude. You have enough there to field a competitive team. Just need to drop a couple guys. Peyton Manning has been going in rounds 3-5 of every mock I've been in. I'm starting him in one of my leagues. Chris Johnson will have a big year this year. I was hoping to take him myself, but it didn't pan out. Hakeem Nicks is a legit WR1 once he's healthy. Julio Jones is a low end 1/high end 2. He put up AJ Green type numbers, just got less hype. Aaron Hernandez is likely the 3rd-4th best TE out there. You know he will produce no matter what, and if Gronk gets hurt, you have a beast.

Redman is an ok #2 rb. Word is that the Steelers plan on going back to a run first attack and Mendenhall looks like he won't even come back this year. Basically, it's not a great team, but it's certainly not the disaster you made it out to be. You really need a new WR3 though. Mike Williams is coming off a bad year and isn't the #1 guy in Tampa anymore.

It wouldn't be that bad other than the fact you have to have 3 starting WRs, a wr/rb and a flex player. So I need either 4 or 5 WRs or 3 or 4 rbs. Looking at this roster you really think I will be able to compete? Especially since half my roster is already injured. And I know where guys are being drafted, that's why I pass on them, because they are going way earlier than they should.

Well that's a matter of opinion as far as guys being taken too early. I think Peyton is a good value in rounds 4-5. He's a medium risk, high reward type. I must say though, now that I know what type of league you're in, that changes things a little bit. You would probably need another solid wr and rb in order to stack up. Still I think you have some solid sleepers on your team.

You have a decent QB who has potential to be great- you have a stud RB who will probably rebound this year, another RB who is set to receive possibly 300 carries (that's getting rare), two very good WRs and a very good TE and defense. Like I said before, a couple good/great waiver pickups and your team will be as good or better than anyone elses.

The great thing about fantasy is that you never know how players will turn out til you start playing the games. I had a team that looked far worse than yours and still had a winning season.

I'm gonna stick with it. Just kinda ****** me off when I saw it so I didn't wanna see anything good about it. Still not that great with the lineups but I'll try.

Hey Ben Zoo... is it too late to take a bet with you?

[Ron Mexico]

Who runs the team "BountyHunters"?

Not at all. Here was my proposition. If I win, you buy me a nice steak dinner or 6 or 12 pack of my choice. If you win, I will buy you the best tasting blue waffle you ever had
