To me it depends on the league format and level of competition. If you take Gonzo in a shark league you're going to suffer at RB or WR...at least you should.
Not if you have acumen.

Lol, the team overall is fairly strong because of Manning and Gonzo, but you're proving his point. Suggs / Bennet as the 1-2 is weak and your WRs have question marks as well. They might all pan out, but I doubt it.

Gee, I didn't mean to insult, this team is the best I've ever seen!
For a 16 teamer, as I said before, the team overall is fairly strong. I've seen, and have better in a league of the same size, but this thread really isn't about comparing our teams.
If you don't see any questions with a guy coming off a leg injury, a guy changing from McNair / Volek to Boller, or Lelie, ok.
BTW, who's your "sure top ten"?
Smith is ranked #17, Mason #26 and Lelie #27 in FBG's own rankings.
Um.... I really don't want BnB to get PO'd, but I see this as a fairly weak team. None of the RB's here are garranteed to be starters. If they start, they could potentially lose those spots. Moore and Fason behind Bennett and Droughns and Green behind Suggs. Last year, both of those RB's screwed thier owners, big time. After Smith and Lelie, the WR corp is highly suspect. what will Mason do this year? Manning and Gonzo are the best at thier positions, but Gonzo is no longer alone at the top, he has some competition. I am in a 16 team dynasty IDP league. My offense is:
Green and Rothlisberger
Portis, Lewis and trash (C Taylor, Crockett, Cloud)
Coles, Evans, Clayton (MIA), and Housh.
Heap, Cooley
Keading and Hansen
BnB's TE pick really screwed him at RB, IMHO. Unless Manning does a repeat, I think this roster is in trouble. He will need a VBD of 100 for the Gonzo pick to work, at least. He left a ton of points on the board with that RB corp. BnB, sorry, it's not personal, just my opinion, and I've been wrong before, that's for derned sure! Now, I'm sure I'll take some hits on MY roster! LOL.
