My First Fantasy Draft

I drafted my first fantasy team last Thursday night. It's a 10 player league, QB, 3 WRs, 2 RBs, W/T, W/R, TE , K, D. It was a random draft and I had second pick.  This year I didn't feel too warm and fuzzy about a second round pick because the stud RBs ( LT & AP ) this year - well, I have concerns about both. I don't see the separation I've seen in recent years. But with a serpentine draft...what else can you do but grab a stud. It's a long freakin time until you draft again.  So this is how I faired:

QB - Ben Roethlisberger
RB - Adrian Peterson
RB - Fred Taylor ( this isn't a homer thing although I do love Freddie T)
WR -  Andre Johnson
WR - Steve Smith ( asshole got suspended for the first two games)
WR - Hines Ward
TE - Dallas Clark
W/T - Anthony Gonzalez
W/R - Julius Jones
K - Neil Rackers
D - Green Bay

Bench
David Gerrard
Matt Forte
Warrick Dunn
Algae Crumpler
Devin Hester
Arnez Battle
Dennis Northcut
Arizona

All in all, I"m pretty happy with this team. Only 3 people showed for this draft so with all the autopicks it went fast and predictable. But I think I can work with this.

Fantasy football is something I don't quite understand, Let me talk to my son about your picks and then I can come back and give you a better comment.
