Gooses 3rd annual Fantasy Draft review and predictions


1st and formost, Newport record is 1-0 after a 4th quarter 20-7 come from behind win against Mercer Island

So year 3 of the Lodge Fantsy League means year three of my draft reviews

Lat year goose succesfuly predicted the train repeat and was right on the money. Will he predict a 3peat this year? Read on....


Lets get rolling
Hancock NCentral HS
Predicted Finish 8th
Jimbo, solid at the starting positions with Addai, Romo, Witten, Fitzgerald and Calvin J. Your issues comes with depth. Forte is a big ??? and may not be able to carry the load against Bears opponants stacking 8 in the box. Speaking of the Box, the human Puma Box at running back with eaither be a steal (800yds and 8tds) or suspended /waived by week 4. Tough call. Might have to work some trades to get the Rb situation fixed
Major Boobage
Predicted Finish 2nd
Nothing stands out as outstanding with this team. Solid, definately solid. However my prediction is Derek Anderson will have a down year and you may turn to McNabb early in the season. I think this team will compete for a playoff spot but will need to wheel and deal to win it all. Good sleepers on the bench at WR in Hackett and Gonzalez. If they explode, this team could be dangerous
#37 So Long Comittee
Predicted Finish 10th
So long playoffs for this team. Dude, you need to start hitting the waiver wire soon. Carson is a good fantasy QB and your WR's are good. You already need depth at RB without RUDI RUDI and your RB's without Westbrook are big question marks. I think unless the stars align, your team is in trouble. You get the Goose Whammy
My Vic In A Box
Predicted Finish 9th
I like the michael turner pick, he will give you a quality RB. I doubt Moss can have the same impact as he did last year, though he is still good for 14td's. Your depth could be better and there were better RB's on the board without drafting forsett. This is another team that will struggle to make the playoffs.
Flex Appeal
Predicted Finish 7th
Lloyd. Good starters. Lets hope the Steven Jackson holdout doesnt become a hangover. He may start slow and may not be able to get on track. Plus holdouts lead to nagging little injuries. McFadden should be a stud, however your bench is pretty bad. Chris Brown is already done for the year, Leinart isnt even the starter, and neither is Kenny Watson. Hit the wire, or else you'll be watching the playoff from whereever it is that you sit (Since I dont really know you)
Taint Punch
Predicted Finish 5th
Casey, thank Train for actually not screwing you with a team. You are actually looking pretty good, however you will probably win the award for "Most times forgetting to set your roster". I see a good team here, but you may need help at RB, both at starters (After LT) and depth. Make sure you pick up another kicker, 2 is NEVER enough
III Peat
Predicted Finish 6th
Train. Im dissappointed in you. 1st. We have not had a TO blowup in 2 year, prepare yourself, its coming. 2. I give you the curse of the cowboys. You will not repeat this year because you drafted classless bums. 3. You just signed a raider, which goes against your beliefs. You are a sad Mexican and like Dirty Steve said "YOU DO IT WITH YOUR HORSE!!!" Your team will make the playoffs, however your dreams of a three peat ended when you decided to Trust in cowboys.
Professor Bad Beat
Predicted Finish 4th
Im not sure what your team names means but that doesnt matter. Duke I like this team. Its riddled with quality sleepers, so it could be 7-7 or 11-3. Big Ben at QB, Good WR's and solid RB's. (Id draft a different defense though). However You have no Backup RB's and 3 QB's. I'd hit the waiver wire quick before Dude does.
The Program
Predicted Finish 1st
Hollywood 2.0. Another team that has sleeper all over it. Brady will not hit 50 again, White and colsten will be solid at WR. TJ and Willis will be solid (I think willis is due for a breakout year, 1400yds and 12 tds plus another 50 balls recieving). Your depth is good, and I think your team is on of the top 3 in the league. Health will be key, and I know you will scout the wire and manipulate some people into trades. You get the vote this year.
Halls of Monk 08
Predicted Finish 3rd
I like my group. QB's and RB's are strong. AP could hit 1800 this year if healthy (If not I have Chester). WR's are good for 70/1000/8 and depth is good with two sleeper RB's in Perry and Stewert (Perry may hit 1000yds and catch 60 balls). Defense and kickers are good and I have my big man Cooley ay TE. With a little luck we may get to the final 4 and/or beyond

Dude, too bad your bulletin board is in the lady's room.

Goose, Devo's team name is a poker term.

I love the vote of confidence from Camp Serling. But I actually think your team is the best. You beat me to Jonathan Stewart and I think that will be $ for you not only this year but in the keeper years to come. Wonderful pick. And you just have the most depth of anybody. Yes, if Brady throws for 40+ I'll be in contention, but history says QB's drop off significantly. We will see.

2 Keepers with Brady & McGahee look great for me as long as Brady doesn't pull a Barry Sanders and retire to marry Giselle.

I know I'm late to the party, but I appreciate the consistency...a team that failed to make the playoffs is picked #1 and then looses its #1 pick?..love it...I believe I was in the 8 spot last year and took home the bronze...I was actually shooting for 10 so I could feel good about going for gold...anyway, good weekend of football even if the quality of local football teams has dropped off the radar (save a certain JV squad from Newport)...

so much to say, so little vocabulary to capture it.

the pull of a potential $500 gift card was strong. i gambled and pulled only
$75.

the punk/hip-hop kids next to me let me drop some freestyle rhymes.

we laughed the morning away making fun of people walking on the street.
