Number 8 Ducks


PREDICTION: 2nd in Central No Playoffs

Biggest Strength: Widereceiver

Biggest Weakness: Runningback

Top 3 Players: WR Fitzgerald, HB D. Williams, WR S.Smith

Roster Analysis
QB- C+... Palmer has good not great upside without Housh not to mention his elbow injury that I believe he should've gotten the surgery for. I do like Palmer a bit though if healthy because in Cincy he'll be in a lot of shootouts or come from behind situations. If he does go down the Ducks back up situation is dreadful Jake Delhomme has no business being owned in the GFFL at this time.
HB- D+... This position before trade would have been in the B's but now after DeAngelo there is no one worthy of a starting spot Earnest Graham is not even a viable flex play. The Dylan trade may have stolen the 2009 season from the Ducks. If DeAngelo slumps or goes down the Ducks will be in big big trouble.
WR- A... Fitz and Smith are great and Coles does give a little depth making this one of the top units as long as Warner's healthy to throw to Fitz this is an A.
TE- D+... Could be worse Miller will be average.

The team bio I had written for them pre-trade heralded them as a possible title contender but now I've bumped this team down from 5th to 8th. It would take another huge year from DWILL for this team to get in the playoffs, but with the loss of a strong HB2 and flex not to mention all the depth I will say check back in 2010 the Ducks with DWILL, Fitz, and Smith as keepers and a high draft pick should be title contenders next year.
