As I said in the GCT, I messed up the "official" one, so I had to make another.

And Agent, it's because of your running backs. You focused too much on WR. You have five capable receivers, but two (maybe three) competent running backs. And those top two backs have had injury trouble lately.

D-Tigers, I used that team rater Phillies posted as a guideline, and then adjusted according to the other teams and my personal preference. The snarky remarks are from ESPN though

Well, I didn't think I did TOO bad of a job, but I have a feeling I'll do well this season.

There were just so many things I didn't like about your team. First off, you got two defenses (one of whom was an 11th rounder) and two kickers. Secondly, you picked your second QB before your FLEX option. Thirdly, you reached way too far on your TE's. And lastly, you have no real lottery picks: guys who have a chance to really break out.

And I'm not alone in that sentiment. Here's a quote from footballguys.com (the website Phillies linked to)

Quote:
The quarterback position looks good, and we like your overall strength at the tradionally less important positions as well. But it has some serious issues post-draft. Your only real core strength is at quarterback, yet that's often the easiest position to fill during the season. Your weaknesses at both running back and receiver put you in a hole before any games have played. To end up with a team constructed like this, you probably did not get value on some of your selections. The players themselves are not necessarily bad --- you just might have paid more than what they were worth.

To make this team into a serious contender, you are going to need to be extremely active in trades and on the waiver wire. You esentially need to turn over significant parts of this roster. Last year running backs like Alfred Morris and Vick Ballard could be had dirt cheap at the draft. Additionally, wide receivers like James Jones and Cecil Shorts were available after a lot of the drafts. You are likely going to need to land some of this year's top waiver plays, so pay close attention to increased workloads, targets, injuries, etc.

I much prefer the B+ grade given to me by ESPN over Skittles' stupid, arbitrary B+ that he gave me,

For *(censored)* sake! How many times do I have to so say that one is wrong! That's not ESPN's ranking of the teams. That was me messing with the grades, trying to find which of the comments I liked the best, while also beginning to try and s. Then I accidentally clicked generate (which is basically the submit button), and for some reason you are no longer allowed to do it again. So I had to create a new league, enter my team eight times, change all the names, and set the draft on autopick. I then used that league's report card to properly represent this league's draft.

Here's the fake league for proof.

So is the one Prediction posted the real one? Because I like that one more even though both of them have me in first place with an A rating or higher.

Suck it, nerds.

Considering I was also projected first in that league, I'm still a tad wary.

The projections for this week are up. They're cool to look at and see how you stack up against your opponent, but it's usually best not to make start/sit decisions based solely on them
