I took second place this year because of some bad luck late but scored bt far the most points this season. This is a league where you have too start at least one QB, RB, WR and TE. You can start up too 3 players at WR or RB. I added a couple WRs that were kept last season late hoping that I could use one as a possible throw in.
You can keep 4 players. Gonzo is a 5th keeper because I designated him as a "redshirt" at the beginning of the season and didn't start him at all this season.
Manning
AP
McFadden
R. White
A. Johnson
M. Coulston
B. Berrian
D. Driver
T. Holt
Plax
Gonzo (RS)
Witten
I really want too parlay some of them into draft picks or higher caliber players but if I can't who do you think are the 4 keepers. I am leaning towards AP, White, Johnson and Colston. I can start all 4 and all 4 put up high point totals every week. I spent the #1 pick in the draft last season on DMac. Is he a keeper type of player with a deep roster like the one I currently have?

Thats who I'd keep. McFadden has yet to prove himself with only glimpses of what he could be, as long as Bush and Vargas are there, he wont get the carries you want. My guess is he'll rot in the Oakland circus until he can get out of there and be used like he should be. Hopefully he keeps his head on straight. Teams are loading the box vs Oakland and making Russell throw the ball. Until Russell develops or the Raiders get a legit QB, McFadden might see some tough running days. You might take a flyer on a Beanie Wells or Moreno in the draft depending on what team situations they have when they come in.

To me, it comes down to five players: Manning, Peterson, Johnson, White, and Witten.
I think Peterson and Johnson are the two locks, with Manning perhaps being a third.
I think I would take Witten over White, but I can see an argument made for either player.
I like Colston a lot, but I don't think he is better and/more valuable than the other five I listed, especially with the recent emergence of Lance Moore.
P.S. And by Manning, you mean Peyton, right? Because if it is Eli, then you can do better. Much better.

Thanks for the advice. It is Peyton that is my roster. I'm trying too get some early stuff done so I am not stuck with all this talent late. i would hate too drop some of these keeper quility players and receive nothing.
I am leaning towards White, Johnson and AP as being the guarantees. I am going too put Manning, Colston, Witten and McFadden out on the trading block. I know Lynch and LT are currently available in the league and I might be able too swing a DMAC and Colston swap for either one. Who do you guys think is more valuable? Lynch is very green still but plays in a questionable offense. LT is, well, LT. I don't think it is a huge investment for either player and I think LT has more immediate up side. Obviously Lynch has more long term value.

This may be a bold statement but I think LT is going to go downhill fast. He has logged a lot of miles in his career. It happens to all the great ones sooner or later, and I believe next year he takes a dive. I would go with Lynch.
