[quote name='2Fast']It was a weird draft, with only eight teams, and I know at least one person didn't know what he was doing. I made a joke about picking JaMarcus Russell in the first round before the draft and someone actually did :lol:
I can't remember how the draft went exactly, but SJax was there and I'd feel like an idiot for not taking him. I think I took LT, Brady, Randy Moss, Slaton, and then SJax (surprising Slaton lasted that long too).[/QUOTE]JaMarcus Russell?! Holy crap. I tried to convince the new guy in our league last year that people pick kickers early to get them out of the way, so if he wanted Gostkowski (we're in Massachusetts, so it's a room full of Patriots fans) he should take him in the first couple rounds (he didn't fall for it, but couldn't help himself and took him in round 8, still way too early IMO) But yeah, Russell in the first round makes my attempted kicker prank sound almost reasonable. :lol:
Those first 5 picks that you mentioned were all gone by the first selection of the 2nd round (13th overall) in my league. They went: Moss (4th), LT (8th), SJax (9th), Brady (10th), and Slaton (13th).

2 wrs, 2 rbs, and a rb/wr. Am I crazy for thinking about benching Moss against Denver's pass D that hasn't given up a TD all year?
n4styn4t3, I'm not sure who I would bench from that group, since they all seem like good plays this week. I don't think it would be Moss, though. Denver's D has been awesome so far, but don't forget they've faced Cleveland, Oakland, and a somewhat struggling Cowboys offense. That group can make a defense look better than they really are. (I think Denver's D is good, but I don't think they're 6.5 PPG good) New England is going to be a huge test for them. Moss put up 2 TDs against Denver last year, although that was admittedly a
very different Broncos D.
Personally, from that group I think I'd sit Sims-Walker this week. Whoever you decide to sit, you're going to have to cross your fingers and hope they aren't the one that goes off with a monster week from your bench.
