there are a couple people that took teams jsut to fill the league. you may be able to coax control of a team away from one of them....or they volunteer to give it to you......although, we may find that we've converted some otherwise indifferent folks to the game.

anyway, here we are

He's not going to want somebody else's crappy team, though.

Although it could be a challenge, to start with a team that, say, made its draft picks based on who had the coolest names , and somehow make brilliant trades to end up with a winning team.

Its alright guys, the draft is the key to success, although I have won leagues that i've actually missed the draft.
If someone copy's and pastes the draft results, then i could clearly have an opinion of who will win, that link given just leads to that main page.
I use Yahoo for fantasy.

How weird that I ended up with three Eagles players. Or is it? I don't know how the random draft works.

Last night, I carefully reviewed my roster in preparation for the start of the season tonight. I think I got a pretty good hand, given that I forgot about the draft.

1)Eagle green
You are the BIG FAVORITE to win this thing, even if mcnabb gets injured ...your picks are close to perfect...You lack a bit in the WR.
If I was to place money down on who's gonna win this thing, it would be on your team hands down!
2)Goats
I may be wrong to rank you so high as the teams directly below you look better overall, but you've picked up some key players that should produce consistent points for you.
You will lose against some teams below you.
3)Southside Sycamoores
You may actually finish in first in this league...C.Palmer will be a key to winning in the playoffs as he will produce more points than any other player should he remain healthy. The Bears are best defence with a very very easy schedule. Your WR's are elite ..you could use 1 RB.
Good luck
4)Toadville Sysadmins
I'm not saying you won't win it, I just think the 3 teams above you are better
5)The Bullies
Your key units are stellar, but you lack depth to win this.
Unless of course you make the right moves.
6)Buncha girls
There are reasons that you cannot win this league.
Your picks are great, your team is great....
One of the keys to success in fantasy is to know who plays who, and WHEN ...at the end of the season, when you're in the playoffs, ou're gonna lose, because your opponents will have key players playing weak defences.
7)The bimbos
Excellent picks, I like your team...there are a few teams better.
You obviously know the game though.
8)Ratts rogues
You picked some heavy duty units in the draft, but IMO, you made some serious mistakes in some rounds which will cost you.
I could take this team and possibly do something with it as there are plenty of moves you can make..trades, free agents.
Make he moves and make the playoffs
9)The vacancies
Not that bad of a team, you know your stuff, but you lack knowledge in fantasy, you're gonna lose a lot of points due to lack of quality in key positions. P.manning will win you some games,and should you make the playoffs, ou would be strong at the end, but i don't think you'll make the playoffs
10)Monkey Ballers
The teams weak, you do have some good players, but you lack the players that will produce the points...ou will win some, but you ill be below .500 at the end of the year
11)We are the troop
Its not gonna work, I'm not saying you'll finished 11th, bu you will be in the bottom half at the end of the year.
I could not take this team and do anything with it.
You lack too much in too many positions.
A.Johnson is a pretty good pick in that round, but you will mostly lose.
12)The Austin Capybaras
Ok...umm, I assume this is a team to fill the league up?
I've never seen such a bad team...final record=0-16

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
This is my team in the last draft i did:
QB:P.Manning
HB:W.Parker
HB:B.Jacobs
WR:Lavernius Coles
WR:T.Glenn
WR:C.Chambers
TE:A.Gates
K:M.Stover
DEF:Chicago Bears

Back-ups
QB:Grossman
HB:A.Peterson(Vikings)
HB:L.Betts
WR:M.Muhammed
TE:LJ.Smith

One of the key things to success in fantasy is to know when your players Bye's are, look at the match-ups of that week and pick up a QB WR RB that is facing a weak defence that week.
Or in the defence bye, a team that is facing a weak offence like the Dolphins or the Bucs.
To win a fantasy league takes effort. You got to stick around and look into things. Some leagues involve the 10-12 players putting $100 into it, winner takes all, so you gotta know, you know?

thanks for taking the time, whip. the capybaras were selected by the players names being appealing to clodfobble. I look forward to teasing whoever loses to them.

Yuk ..I don't like gin, unless its covered by dry martini and some olives.

From what I gather, she wasn't even there at the draft, she got the potential winning team by random.

Hey blue! In the TE position, bench LJ smith and have T.Gonzales starting every week.

Trade Hasselbeck for Mcnair if the Bimbos accept as the Eagles have a week 5 bye..Seattle plays the Steelers, while the Ravens play the week passing defence 49ers that week

Sycamore...drop the Panthers defence and pick up Arizona's.
Week 9 is the bears bye where the Panthers face the titans in tennesee and Arizona plays against week Tampa Bay.
You could also go after Mcnair of Baltimore by trading for him with Delhomme, as the your C.Palmer and the bengals also have a week 5 bye
