Can anyone advise me on which website is best for fantasy??
The last 3 years i've played on NFL.com, but by midseason there is only like 3 people still contributing.
Any advice?
Money leagues arent out of the question either :D

EPSN and Yahoo! are both fine. I prefer Yahoo!, but thats because I am used to it. I would actually say go for ESPN as I love their 2 week playoff format. I actually wanted to switch this year, but the other participants in my league wanted to stay with Yahoo!.

Thoughts on my team? It was a 12 team auction and I went pretty freaking top heavy, but if I avoid injuries I should be looking very good. My one concern is my flex as I have, well, nobody really. I figure I have some good sleepers, so an injury could set me up nicely or I have to be extra astutue on the waiver wire.
In parentheses are the number I need to start of each position:
QB(1): Tony Romo
WR(3): Roddy White, Mike Williams, Percy Harvin, Danario Alexander, Arrelious Benn, Steve Breaston
RB(2): Adrian Peterson, Matt Forte, Roy Helu, Delone Carter, Pierre Thomas, Anthony Dixon, Toby Gerhart
TE(1): Rob Gronkowski, Jared Cook
FLEX(1): choose 1 RB/WR/TE
K: Josh Brown
DEF: Kansas City
General thought and opinions on my week 1 flex option are appreciated. I actually may roll with Cook as of now. Of course a lot can change between now and week one, but it's fun to speculate.

The site is irrelevant. Free leagues with strangers are pretty much a lock to end up with bye week starters and unmanaged teams.
CBS is still my favorite but it's way too expensive given the many solid sites offering leagues at half the price of CBSSports. myfantasyleague.com & rtsports.com are generally cited as good sites on fantasy boards.
I can't stand espn. Every portion of the site pisses me off with bulky content that is jammed down my throat unnecessarily. Yahoo is pretty meh, but the best free site.

Yeah, that's definitely top-heavy. I had the same initial reaction, start both TEs. Cook looks beastly and Scaife is out of the way. You need wwaaaaayyyy too much help for any of those other guys to have value. Benn is the only guy I like to be a decent option of that group.
Awesome starting lineup, though. lol

MJD is downright frightening at 8.
Honestly, 1 / 3 / 5 has got to be the most insane combination of RBs you could grab. lol
All 3 scare the crap out of me at this point, though I definitely like the upside value of Mathews in round 5. I don't think I could grab him without securing Tolbert, tbh.
Love the WRs & TEs.

yeah, i made sure to get jennings to handcuff drew and mcgahee for moreno, but i still ended up with 3 of the riskiest rb's for fantasy by draft position. by the time i thought i should grab tolbert it was too late. i was really happy with graham/gronkowski in back to back rounds, i think they're both top 5-10 tight ends this season.

True. 2 out of 3 handcuffed is damn good, actually. I didn't really look at it that way. I was just so overwhelmed by the scary! lol

There is also 0 reason to draft Matt Cassel in the 8th round in any league.
