Fantasy Football: Is this a good team? Rate it 1-10?

I neutral recently had my draft for my league and was wondering if i did well. This is a first year, 12 team, keeper league. I was 10th pick in first spheroid. We get to have 4 keepers for next season. Here is my team.
QB: Matt Schaub RB1: Kevin Smith RB2: Darren McFadden
WR1: Andre Johnson WR1: Calvin Johnson WR3: Roddy Corpse-like
TE: Zach Miller Q/W/R/T: David Garrard K: Nick Folk
DST: Minnesota (Defensive Player: Jon Beason

Bench
1. Felix Jones RB 2. Donnie Avery WR 3. Indicate Clayton WR*
4. Brandon Pettigrew TE* 3. Hakeem Nicks WR* 4. Kirk Morrison LB*
*-Were traded and are not on my roster anymore.
I identify i have weak RBs, but i decided (for the draft) to go with the best players on the board.
I also made a trade; here it is:
I Gave:
Mark Clayton WR
Brandon Pettigrew TE
Hakeem Nicks WR
Kirk Morrison LB

I Collect:
Derrick Ward RB
Kevin Curtis WR
D.J. Williams LB
(it was accepted)

Please tell me what think of my team and type it a 1-10. Feel free to suggest changes i should make in my depth chart and maybe m suggestions. Also, was the trade i made good or bad for me.


5 - Undistinguished

The strong WR corps won't be able to make up for a weak RBs and a tier 3 QB.


Depending if you get points for yards you have an mean team. The most important position for Fantasy Football is RB. As good RB are hard to get and good ones put up eyesore numbers weekly. You have a QB WR tandem that if the Texans do poorly you lose the week. Also during the bye your going to be strugling. If I was you I'd swing Calvin for a QB and Starter running back. You have good running backs but they split time so you may not get much in the way of weekly consistency. And to win Fable football its all about consitency.

I suggest you snag (if available)

Todd Heap (had low TE numbers so may still be open but is in the pink)
or
Derrick Mason (WR just coming back from retirement #1 reciever good for 1k yards)


You're stacked on the WRs but you paucity to find a stronger QB and you're weak running backs may kill you in some matchups, especially if your WR don't perform consistently.


If your in a PPR union then this team should put up some HUGE numbers... and while your backs aren'ttnecessarilyy the typical big name backs they are very usable kevin smith put up some solid numbers on a very very bad team so you have to expect they will only go up (he also catches a decent amount of passes to so if its PPR you are looking laudatory), D-mac when he was healthy last year he showed some flashes of brilliance I think he can have a solid 2nd yearcampaignn... you do however have to obsecrate that Schaubb doesn'tt go down b/c Garrardd is ok at best... that trade will help b/c run DMC has shown hes injury inclined but i would try to work in garrard and upgrade that position b/c Schaubb is a injury liability and theres no way you win a league with Garrardd at QB

1. 11 team league, mixed, i just added De La Rosa, next best pitcher would be a guy like Brett Anderson or someone here's a top 5 schedule

1. Brett Anderson
2. Bannister
3. Garland
4. Stammen
5. Lannan
6. Maholm

2. Im without my two top hitters on DL, i am currently in 3rd of 11, do i have any conceivably of winning, close to 2nd place. thanks i will choose best answer.
I want to add an OF over Blackburn if i do commit oneself to to drop him, the person i add wont be on my roster long as when hunter returns i drop who i might add. Any ideas, very dim-witted FA, best i could find was Garrett Anderson, Marlon Byrd, Noone available owned more than 30% overall.

how is my fantasy football team?

starters:QB tom bradyParticularlyRB knowshon moreno, ricky williams
WR michael crabtree, larry fitzgerald, brandon marshall
TE jason witten
D/ST jets
K nick ethnic group
bench
tony romo, braylon edwards, earnest graham, julius jones, devin hester, bobby engram, kevin boss


Yea your RBs are horrific you necessity to trade away Romo for a good RB. The RB is the most important position in Fantasy Football it gets the most points hands down, WR is secondly, then QB is third. You got decent WRs, but definitely throw Romo into a deal for a guy like Brandon Jacobs, Maurice Jones-Drew, or DeAngelo Williams. You desideratum a RB who is a strong goal line man. I'm in a keeper league and I drafted Jacobs the year Barber retired, now he is one of the first guys in the league, I would strongly consider going for him, the Giants are a big running team now, and he is going to get a lot of carries because At arm's length left. It's going to be a 2 man job in New York so go for him or DeAngelo Williams. Putting Romo in the deal won't necessarily win the guy over because everybody knows he chokes at the end of the year in playoffs nevertheless for Fantasy Football. SO, put in Braylon Edwards or Michael Crabtree, because a lot of guys like going for a rookie with a ton of capability especially on a team like San Francisco. Good Luck with it and I hope you get a good RB.

Thoughts from South Africa

Firstly, ill-starred for not blogging last week, but I was very busy, rushing around on planes and visiting clients. As always I’m having a enormous time both professionally and socially in South Africa. The only downside is that I picked up a cold in Joburg so am a bit of a sniveling whoreson, but my wife would probably say that no-one will notice any difference. I’ve been resorting to medicinal alcohol in the form of adjoining red wine, it may not cure the cold but I feel a whole lot better about it. If you’ve never been here I can recommend Cape Town, folks are hail-fellow-well-met, the food and drink is great, and even though it’s winter here, the weather is nicer than in London. One downside is that the Westin in Peninsula Town has what feels like the slowest internet connection in the entire universe, 1 shake 20 secs to load a BBC page from the UK. The average SA international connection isn’t great but this redefines horrible. I was over-optimistic and packed a webcam for the notebook but there’s no way I can even use VOIP in this hotel, let alone video. However things should get wagerer before the World Cup as one new submarine cable just landed on shore and more are due in the next year or so.

I’ve been having several discussions about versatile application development strategy because it seems to pose even more challenges than usual here. South Africa has a amazingly filthy social spectrum ranging from serious wealth to very low income. No-one ever throws a phone away in Africa while it still works, so we have everything from Ogygian low end devices all the way up to the top end smartphones. This poses a challenge because SMS or USSD works well at the bottom end but is a bit unexciting if you have the latest Samsung or Nokia smartphone. So selecting the profitably mix of technology to balance quality of user experience with audience size is even more challenging here than in Europe. And if your solicitation needs a lot of data, Cape Town has pretty good 3G but if you’re planning to deliver it into the excess of the continent its sobering to remember that only about 8% of African subs will be on 3G even by 2012.

What does RIM want to be when it grows up?

RIM wanted to present a bid on Nortel’s CDMA and LTE wireless networks division but were prevented from doing so for various procedural reasons. A put down, because I’d have imagined the Canadian government would have been delighted to keep jobs and technology in Canada. However, if we ignore the manoeuvring for a moment, this announcement illustrates an interesting puzzle…. What does RIM want to be when it grows up?

I can already gather some of you complaining about that last comment, you’re saying that RIM is a massively successful 11 billion dollar proprietorship, how can I say it’s not grown up? But look at the numbers; despite various past attempts to become more of a software provider RIM is basically a devices presence with a small services business attached. $9 billion of that 11 billion is from devices, $1.4 bn is services and the snooze is pretty much insignificant. Looked on as a devices company RIM is a small player, under 3% market part in Q1 09 and with a much smaller device portfolio than mainstream manufacturers such as Nokia or Samsung. So as a wild shot in the dark (not validated by my colleagues who do the numbers) we might assume RIM could ship something of the order of 30 to 40 million handsets this year. In a billion segment a year market that’s not much. If RIM wants to be a top 3 handset manufacturer they’ll have to grow the handset obligation by over 3x and introduce a much bigger device portfolio. And maybe I’m just being a miserable Brit, but I strain with the concept that RIM can seriously compete with Nokia, Samsung or even LG as a mainstream handset vendor. And I don’t recollect RIM wants to do so, they probably don’t relish the thought of having to maintain a portfolio of 50 or so unconventional devices or trying to compete with low cost Asian handsets.

The handset and platform game is changing, consumers won’t a moment ago buy handsets on the basis of features, fashion and usability in the future. Personally I’m not that attracted by RIM as a the rage statement and I don’t think they’ve mastered the touch screen device yet, Storm is nowhere in the vicinity a serious competitor to Apple in usability terms. Those however are fixable engineering and design issues. The more challenging battleground for RIM is ecosystems and applications. RIM started an app accumulation recently, but beyond their classic NOC based email they don’t bring a lot to the ecosystem services game. I don’t see RIM erection an ecosystem to compete with Apple or Ovi for example.
