Around SBN: Which Players Will Join The 3,000-Hit Club?

CBSSports.com Presents: JWML Overview, M-Z

College football started this week, and on that note, here are several fantasy league rosters filled with players that should probably go back to college. Unless they went to college at Oklahoma or Ole Miss. Yikes.

These are the final six roster overviews of the JMWL. If you're new, the idea of the league is to create a team of players that plays enough to have some impact in a game, but doesn't play well. In other words, we're striving for the mediocrity given to the Texans by Jonathan Wells in 2002.

On to the rosters!

Star-divide

Spoon feed peoples - JimboTexan

Starting 7: QB David Garrard, RB Jahvid Best, RB Reggie Bush, WR Kenny Britt, WR Derrick Mason, TE Brandon Pettigrew, K Matt Stover

Bench: Tim Tebow, Mike Bell, Cedric Benson, Tashard Choice, Darren Sproles, Bernard Berrian, Josh Morgan, Jeremy Shockey

I think Best probably outperforms the starting lineup, and I think Garrard is probably a cut above the line of bad for this league. Otherwise, it looks like a pretty solid team. Kicking myself for not nabbing Derrick Mason, as he's a perfect fit for this league.

Grade: B

Return Of Stacy Mack - Rivers McCown

I went over my picks here.

Grade: B+. I don't think this is a winning roster simply because it has too much irrelevance. But it was more fun to draft it that way.

NOLANDERSGONNAFUCKUUPSOHARD - Nolander

Starting 7: QB Carson Palmer, RB Donald Brown, RB Correll Buckhalter, WR Danny Amendola, WR Chad Ochocinco, TE Bo Scaife, K Kris Brown

Bench: Derek Anderson, Matt Cassell, Josh Johnson, Ryan Mathews, CJ Spiller, Dwayne Bowe, Antwaan Randle-El, Dustin Keller

Nollie missed the draft but came up with a pretty good team out of the leftovers regardless. My only complaint would be that he's banking a little too hard on certain teams to regress (Chiefs, Bengals), but he's got his bases pretty well covered. Derek Anderson should probably start week 1, and he'll need a new kicker as well in all probability.

Grade: B+

Multiple Scorgasms - AllenOU

Starting 7: QB Jake Delhomme, RB Maurice Morris, RB Chris Ogbonnaya, WR Chansi Stuckey, WR Troy Williamson, TE Alge Crumpler, K Mike Nugent

Bench: Colt McCoy, Seneca Wallace, Javon Ringer, Donte Stallworth, Roy Williams, Joel Dreessen, Brody Eldridge

This tea

This team nee

This team needs some work.

The QB handcuffs are, of course, genius, but I'm not sure his running backs will get enough carries to function as a plus. Williamson and Stallworth were both cut, and I am not sure who Chansi Stuckey is, but he sounds like a Pokemon.

Grade: C

11 Tight End Set - Shake

Starting 7: QB Rex Grossman, RB Montario Hardesty, RB Derrick Ward, WR Dexter McLuster, WR Mike Williams, TE Anthony Fasano, K Billy Cundiff

Bench: Dennis Dixon, Joe McKnight, Fred Taylor, Josh Cribbs, James Jones, Daniel Graham, Jason Hanson, Nate Kaeding

Might have one of the top three WR corps in the league, and badly needs to use that to trade for some bad quarterbacks, because he might not even have a Week 1 starter there. The only RB I see that he can use is Taylor, and there's really no need to have 3 kickers in any league, ever.

Grade: D

Tony Hollings' Opus - WorstFan

Starting 7: QB Matt Leinart, RB Jerome Harrison, RB LaDanian Tomlinson, WR Devin Hester, WR TJ Houshmandzadeh, TE Ben Petrick, K Graham Gano

Bench: Alex Smith, Larry Johnson, Willis McGahee, Brian Westbrook, Darrius Heyward-Bey, Devin Thomas, Nate Washington, Ben Watson

Tough break on cut-down day as he lost his starting QB, but this team has a lot of depth at other positions and could probably spring a trade to acquire another one if necessary. Housh signing elsewhere would definitely help as well.

Grade: B

Next week, we move to our lovely Saturday time slot for predictions and we'll leave Sunday to the actual games. Games played by professionals, unlike most of these players.

Why all the hate?

It’s not like half of my team was auto-drafted and has been repeatedly edited using only the Add/Drop feature or anything.

And to be fair, I may now have 2 starting QBs for Week 1.

Nolander — I’ll trade you an awesomely mediocre kicker for Derek Anderson.

PS

I now have both Batch & Dixon…so I’m covered with a solid JWML QB for the first 4-6 weeks (whatever Ben’s suspension is).

And while I have nothing against McNabb, I may need him to get injured before Ben comes back. This team could go far on the back of Sexy Rexy.

I hate you

But I do love your devotion to having both Mittens & Rosencopter on your bench….to the extent that you only have 1 TE on the roster.

Who cares about your crappy lineup!!!

I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?

by Rip Jersey on Sep 5, 2010 8:52 PM CDT up reply actions  

I'll take that as a compliment

The crappier my lineup, the better.

I'm open

To trading WRs for QBs/RBs, I think mine are too good

hehe

DA is probably my starter when all is said and done. I’ll have to re-evaluate after week 1.

Have you ever tried just turning off the TV, sitting down with your children, and hitting them?

by nolander on Sep 5, 2010 1:53 PM CDT up reply actions  

Yeah mine needs some work

Stuckey is wr # 3-4 for the browns

I’ve been in fucking Baltimore and Philly for the week, coming home today. East coast is awful, cept for the easy tail

Its hard to tell

but I think even with his numbers last year, Palmer and Cassel would be decent options. Cassel threw a fair number of picks, and Palmer was just super mediocre, and I don’t see TO changing that. Shame about my kicker though.

Irrelevant, but necessary.

Houston is reportedly interested in Matt Leinart, via PFT. Please for the love of god Kubes, sign Troy Smith, not Leinart.
