Fantasy Adivice?


I have the #1 pick in my BIG MONEY league this year and I am debating on wether or not to take Ricky Williams or Marshall Faulk. But I am also intrigued by Clinton Portis and Michael Vick!

If you had the #1 who would you take? Remember 20 players are off the board till you pick again YUCK!

Man, I think I would snag Vick. I have this feeling he finally knows what he is doing out there, thety have put weapons around him.

I have the #2 pick in my big money league and I know the guy ahead of me is going to be a GB homer and snag Favre and I am almost 100% certain my pick will be Vick.

Depending on how many Qbs your league allows, I think a "sleeper" QB is Trent Green. IMO, the KC offense is going to pick up where they left off last year.

Portis would be a good later guy but if form holds, the Broncos are going to face alot more pressure against their running game.

If that's an Antsports league, NO WAY do you snag Vick with the #1 pick. QBs just aren't worth it there. IMO, QBs usually aren't worth a 1st round pick period, but that's just my thought. I'd take LT-Ladanian Tomlinson. This guy is a monster. Remember, too, that they've beefed up their O-line and added FB Lorenzo Neal.

Ricky Williams, though, would be a good grab too. That's WAAAAAAY too early for an aging Faulk, who also has O-line problems and is now without Hodgins.

I agree about Vick. But I have always been a firm believer that RBs are what make a great fantasy team. My results have proven good over the years. But Vick is so damn intriguing! The only thing that truly scares me about him is his ability to make it through a whole season?

I can realistically see the guy throwing for 30 TDs running for 10 more and having close to 1000 rushing as well.

I was shocked just how many Fnatasy Magazines are touting Portis as the best RB in football this year!

Hopefully you didn't have your draft yet. I am sure glad we didn't with Vick being my top choice. Now to re-evaluate direction. I will probably go RB now.

I would pick Williams or LT depending on the scoring in your league, I'm leaning right now to stay away from Portis, but that just may be because I have seen Plummer kill offensive numbers to often.

Okay - how many people are in that league - cause either you are playing with morons or that has to be one of the greatest drafts of all time. If it's the moron one, let me know next year. Nice Sqaud - are al the teams all-star squads though?

wow - that's a squad on a ten team league - you gotta love playing with newbies - it's so easy to take their money - of course what usually happens is one of them has absolutely noi clue what they are doing, gets ridiculed all during draft day and then ends up winning the entire thing - good draft though Shane.
