My first impression was decent, but not great. Then I remembered it was PPR. Looks really good. Lot of reception potential there.

Ouch your RB's ouch is all I have to say.

In a 10 team league, your RB corps shouldn't be all potential.

The best RB's on your team are players that are going to share carries and their value is just running on potential right now. The only guy that may work out is Addai, but that's only if he doesn't end up splitting the carries with Donald Brown (which could happen).

Thomas could definitely be a #2 RB. But that's IF he starts where he left off last season and that's IF Bush doesn't make a push for playing time.

Chris Wells will share carries with Hightower and that line has awful run-blocking.

Felix Jones will get the 2nd most carries on the team, but that's just it, he's a backup and will share carries with Choice.

The other two? I don't even think they should be on a roster currently.

So you're best guy is Addai who I'd treat as a #2 RB. Thomas is your next best thing. Wells will be splitting carries and struggling all year. Jones won't get enough touches to start every week, but to only come in as an emergency.

My advice is to wait a couple weeks into the season. If Addai comes back wanting to better his rookie campaign, he'll keep Brown at bay and be one of the best backs this year. And Thomas has the stuff to be a starter, but time will tell.

So wait a couple weeks into the season because you may be fine. But you also may be in trouble. Right now I'd lean 55% you're fine and 45% you're in trouble. Your RB corps could go either way.

Question: How many do you start at each Position?

I'm guessing 1 QB. 2 RB. 3WR. 1 TE. 1 Def. 1 K ?? Correct?

If so, I think you'll be alright. I slightly disagree with Vots on Thomas. I think he's a legit #1 back. Bush is such a liability out of the backfield and is better suited to catch passes from there, not running between the tackles. Pierre is going to get 70% percent of the carries, IMO.

My biggest concern is your starting #1 QB and your starting #1 RB come from the same team. I've ran into issues in the past where this scenario has not worked out.

Personally, I think you should trade Welker and get yourself another solid low-end #1 RB. Throw in Wells as a part of the package and try to net yourself a better end #1 with recieving skills.

Just throwing ideas out there.

I think making the statement of Thomas can be a #2 RB if he picks up where he left off last season, is an optimistic statement. Thomas becoming a #1 fantasy back, a guy who's going to score with the likes of Peterson, Jones-Drew, Forte, Williams and Slaton, is a pretty bold prediction.

Unless you know something I don't know, I would never take this guy with my 1st round pick. Right now, if I had mid-late 2nd round pick, I'd take a flier on Thomas if I was feeling good about him. But right now, especially with his knee injury (although not serious, yet), he's a late 2nd-early 3rd rounder.

You guys can see my team on my other post. 12 team PPR. Think it turned out good.

Sorry I take your rankings out of context.

You're right. I don't see him scoring as much as those guys, but pretty close to it. I just meant he's a formidable #1 back for his team. Not in general.
