This draft has been on an mboard from the beginning of December up until now. I know that it's a pretty risk/reward team with Sexson, Reyes, Nomar, Mags, Griffey, Prior, Burnett. Please rate this team and feel free to make any suggestions as to what I need for my backups.

I like your team a lot!! its got all around players on it, but all of them are high risk players that most people try and stay away from. I mean its a risk having 2-3 of those guys, yet you have 5. if you team holds together i'd say a 80, but if it comes crashing down good bye. try and get some help in the OF, and maybe some guys that play OF and 1st.
I'd say about a 75. I like you pitching i"d give that about a 90. Your in field is about a 80-85. your outfiled is a bout a 45.
Maggs is the upside of the OF, coming off an injury. Guillen is middle road. Griffey i would not touch. IMO
My OF make look like it blows... But if Mags and Griffey are healthy and Jose Guillen produces like last season, that all of a sudden becomes an awesome group. I also will not fall into the annual trap of managers falling in love with Griffey and not trading him. I will trade him before June 1. But I'm looking at backup plans for sure. I'm inquired to draft either Millar, Lawton, Bradley, or Freel next round to be my 4th OF. I picked up Nix because I think he'll have a breakout season, but he's yet another risk. I got Thomas right before Nix because he is just a monster and if Sexson goes down and Morneau has a sophomore slump I can stick him in there.
Hopefully my next few rounds go alright and I can get one or maybe even two of those guys. I also am looking at adding a 6th and 7th starter... but too bad their isn't much out there. There aren't any closers left, so I'm looking to take Shields to take up that spot.
Here's a more up to date roster. I picked up Freel for the sb in case Mags or Griffey goes down or doesn't play at all. I also gave my SP a lot more depth with the additions of Jerome Williams and Bobby Madritsch. Scot Shields should give me a solid ERA and 100 k from the RP spot. I'm trying to trade for an OF but the managers in my league are really stubborn. They want Justin Morneau for Shannon Stewart and such. Just gonna have to pay close attention to the waiver wire this year and bag an OF who will have a breakout year.
