i'm a great coach

so some of my wife's co-workers decided to do a fantasy football league.  they are all librarians and, frankly, don't know anything about football (much less fantasy football).  they only had 6 teams in the league, so you know that each team is stacked.  they also had a ridiculously large number of bench spots.  that being said, my wife asked if i'd give her a list of players so that she could have somewhat of an idea of what she should be doing on draft day.

i gave her some basic strategies (fill out roster, save dst and k for 2nd-to-last and last rounds, respectively, draft a handcuff, evaluate the value on the board).  basically, i have a VBD cheatsheet i made for my non-ppr leagues and made a general laundry list of players based on said VBD cheatsheet.  i just told her to draft the person with the highest value on the board provided that she didn't draft any backups prior to filling out her roster.  i won't go into any analysis, but this is her team:

QB: michael vick
RB: arian foster
RB: ray rice
WR: roddy white
WR: andre johnson
FLEX: greg jennings
TE: aaron hernandez
DST: baltimore
K: hartley
BN: eli manning
BN: matt ryan
BN: frank gore
BN: shonn greene
BN: bernard pierce
BN: aj green
BN: hakeem nicks
BN: jeremy maclin
BN: demariyus thomas
BN: vernon davis
BN: matt bryant

i think i smell a championship.
