I dont have a lot of IDP experience, but I would say you did a smash up job for a 16 team league ...

 
FYI- Kampman's actually a RDE; myfantasyleague.com seems to always have him listed as a DT though.

even the better-- i would think? but that would pose a problem if MFL changes him over to a DE.

HOld on, I mistyped. He's a LDE. Regardless, most leagues don't tend to accept MFL's classification as conclusive. Mine for example looks to Ourlads.

 
Did you draft this team, or was it an orphan? in any case, the only area of real concern is the LB's, but only because you have to start 4. You could use another safety, but this wasn't a deep draft at that position, pretty much just Davis and Poole. For your rookie draft, I'd target Thurman, Ruud, DJ and Crowder. Probably in that order. I would say yer D is in good shape.

 
Look for Azumah to be a cap casualty and June 1 cut
I would find it very suprising if the Bears released both Azumah and McQuarters.
Bears | McQuarters Missing, as Expected - from www.KFFL.com

Sat, 21 May 2005 06:50:45 -0700

Brad Biggs, reports for the Chicago Sun-Times, Chicago Bears CB R.W. McQuarters had an unexcused absence as the team's minicamp started Friday, May 20. The team won't fine McQuarters. He is expected to be released before June 1 if a trade does not materialize. "I can understand him not being here,'' head coach Lovie Smith said. "We're trying to do what's right by everyone. We think we can make tough decisions and still try to do what's right by an athlete at the same time. We're not trying to hurt anyone.''
Who would return kicks for the Bears? :link:

Bears | Berrian in the Lead Published Sun May 22 2:45:00 a.m. ET 2005 (KFFL) Updating a previous story, John Mullin, reports for the Chicago Tribune, Chicago Bears WR Bernard Berrian holds a slight edge in his bid to win the team's punt returner job.

I thought I read something about Vasher being in the mix also but I can't find the source.

BTW nice team you have there Rooter :bag:

Azumah is the Bears #2 corner and kick returner not punt returner. The fact that the Bears have trying other players out at punt returner points to McQuarters being cut. In fact I have read that the Bears want to give Azumah a long term contract. I am still waiting to see a link that suggests that Azumah will be cut.

thanks guys. i drafted the team myself...1st year. so it is encouraging to hear i didn't draft a dud. from all reports out of chicago R.W. will be cut, berrian or vasher will return punts, and azumah they are looking to sign long-term-- which in the era of non-guarnteed contracts means little. :)

 
(KFFL) Larry Mayer, of ChicagoBears.com, reports the Chicago Bears have released CB R.W. McQuarters. "After exploring trade opportunities with R.W., we felt it was in everyone's best interest to release him at this time," said general manager Jerry Angelo. "We respect and appreciate his accomplishments as a Bear and wish him well."
