10 Team Kubiak Draft...1st Experience

I used Kubiak along with my own intuition and went through my 1st draft using this product...All tds in my league are worth 6pts and QB's are usually overvalued and drafted much too high by other owners in my league. With that being said I missed out on a lot of the Qbs I wanted. Here is my team drafting from the 7 spot. We start QB,RB,RB,WR,WR,TE,FLEX,K,DEF

1. M. Jones-Drew...Brees, Manning and Rodgers went in top 6
2. R. Moss... Mendenhall was my target but got picked
3. J. Charles...McNabb and Cassell were highest rated QBs at this point
4. P. Thomas...Forte was my taget but got picked
5. A. Foster...I reached a lil...but was rated high on Kubiak
6. C. Portis...I deviated and reached on this...but hey I'm a skins fan
7. H. Ward...Te's were flying off the board at this point
8. H. Nicks...potential breakout player
9. E. Manning...McNabb gone and couldn't go with Cassel backup Qbs were picked
10. T. Owens...Decided to take a chance on him
11. Z. Miller...OAK TE great value according to Kubiak
12. B. Roethelisberger...Projects high once he comes back
13. M. Wallace....kept hanging around and I kept passing cuz I had Ward til here
14. Bengals Def...Top rated defenses were gone
15. L. Tynes...I like to pair my kicker with my starting QB

I realize that I reached in round 5 and 6 but overall I feel comfortable with my team. 2 players I am keeping my eye on are M. Willliams T.B. and M. Cassell...neither one got drafted.

Please rate my team and let me know what you guys think. This is my 1st experience using Kubiak.

I don't know about drafting 5 RBs with your first 6 picks, but you seem to have come out all right anyway. Ward and Nicks ought to be solid WR2s, and Roethlisberger seems to have been all but forgotten by fantasy owners worldwide. I'd consider shopping Thomas or Foster to someone with high-end depth at WR or QB, but it's not absolutely necessary.

With 6 pt TDs, it pays to target some of the higher-end QBs earlier...personally, I'm a later round qb/te guy but really feel like your scoring scheme puts you in a position to have to get 1 of the top 8 QBs off the board in the first few rounds. Good luck, though. Those RBs will be a handful for the rest of your league for sure.
