Havenât talked about my fantasy team because Iâve been so freaking
busy lately. Two weeks into the season, and Iâm undefeated so
far. Only 1 other person in the league is undefeated. Iâm
also only 15 points back from high points in the league. Here is
a rundown of my team:
Starting Lineup:
QB â Trent Green â 3rd round
RB â Larry Johnson â 7th round
RB â LaMont Jordan â Franchise
WR â Terrell Owens â 2nd round
WR â Randy Moss â 1st round
TE â Dallas Clark â 12th round
K â Ryan Longwell â 8th round
DST â Patriots â 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 youâve been watching NFL the first 2 weeks, you understand
that Iâm pretty freaking happy about having RM and TO on my team.
T. Green hasnât 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 hasnât 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
isnât doing so hot, so that could turn out to be a good thing.
Iâm kinda weak at RB, but only because LJ doesnât 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 TDâs 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.
