    Why would you buy a stud RB for $140 when you can get 2 for $13. Roy Williams for $92 and Chris Chambers for $110? Barber $5 and Chambers $110. Who the hell came up with those prices? I would think in your league that WRs are better than RBs based on the prices on your team. Team is good but the prices c’mon man. I be an owner with alot of CASH left.

    You must have a man-crush on Ocho-Stinko. Drafted (high, I assume) in last league and paid waaay too much in this. As stated by others; $13 for Gore AND Barber? Where’s the typos at? Fine team, though.

    Perhaps, I did not explain the setup well. This is a keeper league, and we can keep any and all players we want for 1 to 4 years, specified after the draft how many years we are going to keep them.

    With the auction style, I was able to get Marion Barber cheap, not this year, but his rookie season as other owners didn’t have much money left and didn’t know Barber was going to be good.

    Addai I aslo grabbed in his rookie campaign. Chris Chambers I overpaid for last year, but I still have him as a keeper player.

    This year, I only drafted, Plax, Roy Williams, Hasselbeck, Ryan, Gonzalez, Graham, and Seattle defense.

    Obviously, if Barber was up for auction this year, he would go for around $300, but I have him for much cheaper as I was willing to take him as an underrated rookie.

    Thank you for the comments.
