I just wanted to get on this one to start me out for the season. Just a warm up for me, ranking and drafting, get a feel for it before I get in some money leagues.

Count me in, but I don't think I'll do too well.

I strongly suggest you draft 2 solid running backs in your first 3 picks (if not first 2 picks). Draft with HEALTH in mind. It's everything.

Draft your kickers and defense late. (Like after the 8th round, at least). Be careful with guys like Hanson. He's great, but over the years, due to the Lions crappiness, he doesn't get as many points as some average kickers.

Qb's are hard to gauge (but don't waste a top pick on one unless it's P. Manning)

Wide receivers can really help, but usually pick a RB in the first round.

Tight ends (depends on your league settings), but if you have a league where they don't have a specific slot for them, and you can use them as Wr's, there are only a handful worth drafting.

Good luck.

Re: Fantasy Football

I'm in. Finished 8th last year, and am looking to improve.

I hope I can make the draft. I hate letting the computer do it for me.

Thanks for some of the advice Tater. Shaun Alexander is my favorite player so I have him first.

Most mock drafts have Alexander, LT or LJ going number one overall.

Tater is right, RBs first (or Manning). But I think some WRs might go in the first round as well. Chad Johnson most likely being the top wideout taken.

Currently 5 spots left on a 10 team league. I'd like to have the commish change it to a 12 team league if we can get enough serious players though.

Re: Fantasy Football

My only advice is to be careful of a 12 team league because sometimes it dilutes the talent too much.

I'd play but Fantasy is so addicting and between PF and our basketball fantasy league, I don't think I could do it.
