Haven’t talked about my fantasy team because I’ve been so freaking busy lately.  Two weeks into the season, and I’m undefeated so far.  Only 1 other person in the league is undefeated.  I’m also only 15 points back from high points in the league.  Here is a rundown of my team:

Starting Lineup:

  • QB – Trent Green – 3rd round
  • RB – Larry Johnson – 7th round
  • RB – LaMont Jordan – Franchise
  • WR – Terrell Owens – 2nd round
  • WR – Randy Moss – 1st round
  • TE – Dallas Clark – 12th round
  • K – Ryan Longwell – 8th round
  • DST – Patriots – 11th round

Reserves

  • Aaron Brooks
  • Chris Brown
  • Marshall Faulk
  • Eddie Kennison
  • Ashley Lelie
  • Matt Stover

I had 10th pick overall in a 10 team league, so I got 10th and 11th picks overall.  Took a different strategy this year from previous years, and took 2 WRs, and get the 2 best in the business.  No doubt, if you’ve been watching NFL the first 2 weeks, you understand that I’m pretty freaking happy about having RM and TO on my team.

T. Green hasn’t panned out so far (zero TDs), but he traditionally has started slow the past couple of years.

I drafted C. Brown (RB Tenn) in the 4th round.  Major bust.  Benched him in favor of L. Johnson, who is putting up monster stats right now.  Don't know what I was thinking when I drafted M Faulk in the 10th round.  I musta been just trying to get any RB I could at that point.  He was the last RB I drafted.

Patriots defense has already scored a TD for me, which I expect about 1 TD for every 3 games, which is pretty good.

Longwell hasn’t gotten the opportunities I thought he would.  I wanted Vinateri, as he has been on my team 3 of the past 4 years, but somebody took him the pick right before me.  Right now, Vinateri isn’t doing so hot, so that could turn out to be a good thing.

I’m kinda weak at RB, but only because LJ doesn’t get many touches.  He still gets the TDs though.  L. Jordan is doing well, avg about 100 all purpose yards per game, and 1/2 TD’s per game.  Hoping that will increase as he gets more comfortable in the full time RB role.

All in all, with my WRs being the core of my team, I could be on track for a monster season if my QB and RBs pick it up a little.  Even more so if the Priest goes down with an injury.
