I don't like Clinton Portis at all, I'm betting Betts gets more of the workload. Your WR's are extremely thin and weak, Driver is already hurt, CJ is a rookie, and I don't think Kevin Curtis should start in any league.

Portis is right where you need him though... as a 3rd RB, and he is covered in case of emergency with Norwood.... I only wonder though if you wasted a higher pick on him when you could have REALLY improved at WR....

I also am FAR from a fan of having your QB and #1 RB off in the same week (I rank Johnson above Alexander)... it is like giving yourself an inherent loss

I would drop the backup K and TE and take some more risks at WR, since it is your thin position... those types of K's and TE's are ALWAYS available on the WW when the bye week comes.....

I dumped Pollard and picked up Mike Furrey WR Det

Quarter Back

Carson Palmer is a very good QB but I question this pick for you don't get any points for compleation and at a point for 25 Yards that is lower then most leagues for most do 1 for 20 or even 1 for 10 and you could got a QB like a Vince Young or a Romo few rounds later and would of only lose maybe 2 points a week at most.

Roethlisberger is alright to back up Palmer although I like my backup to be a little though.

Running Back

Alexander is alright for your Number 1 as long as Addai and Gore was gone when you picked him. Rudi Johnson is outstanding to have as a Number 2.

Clinton Portis is a mistake. He is a big injury risk and Betts have already shown that he can be a top Running back and I can see Betts forcing the issue by Outplaying Portis and that his days as a starter is almost over and that there are so many running backs that are alot safer picks.

Jerious Norwood isn't a bad pick. You might get lucky with him.

Wide Reciever

Donald Driver although hurt is alright for a #1.

Now I find it funny that alot of people think becouse Calvin Johnson was a high draft pick that he will have value this year but the projections I have on him isn't better then your avrange Bench Player.

Vincent Jackson is a little better but isn't enough to want to be starting him.

Kevin Curtis, Will you can hope to lucky with him.

Tight End

What is Pollard doing on your team? Keeping a Backup Tight End is the Biggest wast of a roster spot. under your league settings he is projected to score 43.6 points this season. that's about 2 1/2 points per week. Really why would want to save that?
