Solid team, but tough to gauge it with an 8 man league as I'm sure most other teams are solid too.

Great job in getting Peterson and Gore though. Will be nice to have Bush in case something happens to AP.

just looked to make sure i wasn't crazy. ESPN had em at 9 and sportsline and lindy's at 8. It's DST and they did have 8 DTD last year. I'll keep em and see what kind of start they get off too..

defenses are one of those things that you can add and drop as the weeks go on and usually get similar point production out of.

If I don't have a steady go-to defense, I'll just keep adding a defense that could be a good spot start against a team that turns it over a lot.

In my league though we carry 2 DSTs.
