Trade Randy Moss for anther good RB. Droughns isn't going to cut it and neither will Moss this season.

vanderjagt may end up being useless.
and i don't see to being a good fantasy player in a parcells offense.

i hate to criticize a team, because anything could happen, but this is my 14th year so i'll tell you what i think:
receivers to me are the most valuable thing you can get. most people stock on running backs, i go for wide outs in the first rounds. my thinking is, there will be a few running backs in the 15-20 touchdown range. there will be far less locks at wide out who will do the same. the drop off from top tier to second tier is far more. so i think you had the right strategy, you just got caught in a tough year. there's a lot of uncertainty with the WR this year. you have two amazing talents with a ton of questions. moss doesn't have a qb, TO might not be playing all year. it could be great, it could be rough. for your sake, i hope great, because at RB, you're weak. Tiki is a great back, really stepped up for me last year...but Droughns as a #2 is not good at all. You'll get smoked by most teams there. Hasslebeck is serviceable. I don't put a lot of weight on the QB position. I drafted Bulger and Green really late last year and was locked at 2-3 TD's a game. That's enough to just about cancel out the other guy's guy. Hasslebeck can do that and a little more. Cooley will get you some TD's, but probably not a lot of yards, so we'll see. I like your D.
You're going to need to pull some moves and upgrade you're #2 running back and #3 receiver when people start standing out. Be quick with that and pray that Moss/Owens talent shines through more than their attitudes and you could be ok.

I know, I had a bunch of orientation bullshit while the draft went on and that really pissed me off. I'm trying to make a bold trade for my number 1 guy, Larry Johnson.

moss had 1000 yards and 8 tds in an injury riddled season.

on the other hand, you don't want two oakland wideouts...your backup shouldn't have the same bye week as your starter...
drop longwell for a rb

Lee evans is an under rated WR should have a breakout season this year

he has an awful QB and a run oriented team. talent wise, he might be good, but his system isn't good for fantasy at all. I'd have him as my #4 if at all.

um was this a keeper?

no, it's a thousand dollar grand prize + weekly prizes league. i'll break it down:
i got LT 3rd overall, pretty easy pick. i picked wide outs the next two picks ( i always get them early), plus the top tier RB's were gone so i wanted to get two top wide outs. Then I jumped on Dunn because after him it got bad after him. With Duckett gone, I figure he'll be adequate at the least.
Santana was a tough choice, I hate the skins and there were quite a few semi-ok receivers. He could be good, but I don't trust Brunell to keep him consistant. We'll see, he's a flex so I could move Taylor up (I think Fred could be good this year). I got Culpepper really late...he was just sitting there in the eight round. Don't ever get a QB early, you can get a quality one late, even if its the 10th to go. No point wasting an early round pick on 5 more 4 point TD's when you can get 5 more 6 point TD's.
The rest is easy, I took Philly because Chicago had just gone and the Birds could be good this year. Kickers are a crap shoot. And I think Watson is special.
