Big expectations on Matures again this season aa he was pretty worhless last year as witnessed by Tolberts success. He came into camp not conditioned and started rom behind and the coaches.not happy. Its RBBC in Sand Diego. Hopefully Matures cam take advantage of that offense in SD and put up some points.

"Matures" lol... you have to stop posting from that phone!  That is only adding to the confusion.  Hopefully Mathews can mature!

Gah! That Droid!!! My Droid I am so sorry about that. Yes Brook it does only add to the confusion. Guess I need to buy some sort of iPad type unit, easier to see and type on the train...

Didn't understand the underhanded last comment since the forums are free. Not everyone responds, especially at this time of year when many are wrapped up in their own drafts, and if you'll notice, yours is the ONLY "rate my draft" type post I've replied to so far with any detail. Glad I didn't respond immediately as the "Ryan Williams" typo would have made me wonder. But you list him again later on, and he's been off the Draft Analyzer rankings since the night he got injured. You cant tell me that if your draft was any time after August 20th that Ryan Williams was showing up in the Draft Analyzer Tier sheets. We even sent a SMART Alert (something your $25 championship package does provide if you sign up for them) about him and the likelihood he was was going to miss the rest of the season the next day.
 
As for your draft, with Charles and Hillis as keepers I probably would have taken a WR in round 2 myself to go along with AJ. However, S. Johnson is undervalued because of the team he plays for and is a good WR2, and the Forte pick gives you 3 strong RB's to start every week. Julio Jones and Meachem are both high upside guys providing WR depth. Peyton Manning in round 3 is solid once he is healthy and nice job on your part getting two quality backups in both Eli and Orton to cover for him if it takes Peyton any games to get back into form.
 
Don't drop D. Carter as he is likely to be strating games before long. The Colts may defer to Donald Brown as the top backup to start the season, but they'll soon earn Carter is a better runner. As for Mathews, he is a rock solid RB 4. You have great depth at the RB position. Charles, Hillis, and Forte are a great 3 to throw out there every week and Mathews can help cover bye weeks.
Pettigrew is a decent TE, and for where you took him that's fine, but I would have liked a more reliable or higher upside fantasy TE. Paying attention to players Average Draft Position (ADP) possibly could have allowed you to take a better starting fantasy TE earlier and taking Meachem later than you did, SMART Alerts were again sent out about Meachem's ADP being in rounds 9 thru 11 in standard leagues throughout the last 2 weeks of August as we tracked him as one of our favorite fantasy sleepers the last several weeks.
 
Overall, your team looks solid. But make sure to pay attention to the free agents available on your free agent wire and use the Trade Analyzer to compare value of any potential acquisitions vs. who you already have.
