QB
Regardless, Rivers has the toughest passing defense schedule in the NFL this year. He's relatively safe to a degree, but he's not going to put up big numbers. I do like Garrard, I think he will put up big numbers and could be a huge boost if you're in a yardage league due to his scrambling. Jags have a pretty easy schedule too.
RB
Maroney is a risk. His shoulder could become injured at any moment, but the bigger concern is that NE will use Heath Evans at the goal line and Kevin Faulk on 3rd downs. They are going to have to rest Maroney extensively to get him through the season. IF Evans doesn't vulture GL carries, and IF Brady doesn't just pass for TDs to his stellar WR corps, then Maroney could be a legit #1 stud. As it stands, he's a risk. Portis is boom or bust. It all depends on his knee. We know Washington is going to take it easy with him for the first quarter of the season. We know Betts could be better than Portis in that system, though Betts sucks in the red zone. If you're in a TD league, Portis has more value. Another risky pick though. Marion Barber has a ton more value in TD leagues, but is good depth. I'm not sure how much Tatum will play in Detroit. Jones will be back relatively soon, and Duckett has looked much better throughout the preseason then Bell.
WR
Great WR depth if Holt's knee is okay. You're really solid there. Too bad WR is not as important as RB and possibly QB.
TE
Winslow is fine, a risk, but fine. Need better backup then Graham. There are a ton of sleepers such as Heath Miller, Marcedes Lewis, Eric Johnson, Bo Scaife, and David Martin that were likely not even drafted in your league. I'd put them over Graham at this point in time at least.
K
Elam is ok, he's losing some of his range, but he's pretty consistent. I don't like snow kickers though if I can help it. Crazy weather in fantasy playoff time can really **** things up, might have to swap him out by then.
DEF
GB is a good sleeper defense. The snow will help them in fantasy playoff time.
Overall, I don't like your team because you might have the most injury risk team I've ever seen. Top two RBs, Top TE, Top WR....ouch. However, if none get injured and return to form, you have a great team. I hate risk though, I like to insure I get into the dance at the end. Especially, if money or bragging rights are on the line.
So basically you're a 5/10 or a 8/10 depending on injuries. One makes the playoffs, one does not.
