NFBC Message Boards

Ok completed my first ever NFBC draft and I had a strategy going in...and that strategy went out the window in the first round and had to adapt and although I am not completely happy with the team...i think it has good potential to do some damage. Anyhoo...any thoughts would be appreciated.

Bench: Brett Gardner, Marco Scutaro, Chris Getz, Aubrey Huff, Randy Wells, Erik Bedard, Aroldis Champman

my rough calcs puts you in a tough position in steals, otherwise pretty nicely balanced offense. i'd try to get gardner and/or scutaro in during as many advantageous weeks as possible. could be a monster if upton and heyward explode as they might. work that waiver wire for better catchers.

Not sure if its a 12 team or 15 team. Im assuming 12 team which would make it a solid effort for the first time but unlikely to win league. If its a 15 team then it would be a real solid team with a shot at league title. Short on speed either way but should be solid in other areas.
