It was dumb of me to be so presumptuous to assume I’d be able to churn out a football post a day starting last week through the beginning of college football season, which, may I remind you, starts tomorrow. I’ve had to push some superfluous stuff to the front of my To-Do list (like finding a job; I mean, how ridiculous is that?) so I haven’t been able to post as I’d planned.
That said, Doug has his NFL fantasy football team posted, and as owner of another team in the Big Ass Football League, I figgered I’d do the same. Ladies and gents, the Detroit High-Fives (a NSFW description):
Offense
- QB Donovan McNabb
- RB LaDainian Tomlinson (my 1st rounder - 3rd overall pick)
- RB DeShaun Foster
- WR Anquan Boldin
- WR Donte’ Stallworth (I always try to double up on pts by getting a WR on my QB’s team - this was the best I could do this year)
- WR Joe Horn
- TE Randy McMichael
- K Shayne Graham
- Bench: QB Trent Green (might split starts with McNabb, I took him so 1) no one else would and 2) he’d give me some trade leverage)
- Bench: WR Michael Clayton (no relation to Mark Clayton)
- Bench: WR Mark Clayton (no relation to Michael Clayton)
- Bench: WR Chad Jackson (my pre-draft ROY pick - it’s doubtful it will happen now)
- Bench: RB Warrick Dunn (will likely start most games)
- Bench: RB T.J. Duckett (crapshoot - could get me 12 TD’s this year, could get me 2)
- Bench: TE Leonard Pope (just to make things fair, I’m going to leave him on the bench for now)
Defense
( I could’ve done better here, I’m the first to admit)
- DB Allen Rossum (return yards count in our league, that’s the only reason he’s here)
- DB Sean Jones (former Dawg won the starting safety job in camp)
- DB Antoine Wingfield (picked up after I drafted my final round Mr. Irrelevant, Tim Jennings, and promptly dropped him post-draft)
- DL Ray Lewis
- DL James Farrior
- DL Julius Peppers
- DL Dwight Freeney
- Bench: DL Dexter Coakley
- Bench: DB Jimmy Williams (will likely get some starts - offenses will pick on him early with DeAngelo Hall at the other corner spot)
- Bench: DL Jason Taylor
I’d like to say I’m jacked up about my team, but right now there are too many question marks at WR and on defense. That said, Tomlinson has singlehandedly won games for fantasy owners in the past, so we’ll see what happens.
