Fantasy Football Roundup

With the usual apathy caveats. 4 teams, 68 roster spots. Six Pittsburgh Steelers (five distinct, none of them Roethlisberger); four each of Bears, Broncos, Colts, and Texans; no Patriots, Chargers, or Ravens.

Players on more than one team:
Chris Johnson (RB-TEN) (3 - apparently I believe the hype)

Matt Ryan (QB-ATL)

Willie Parker (RB-PIT)
Matt Forte (RB-CHI)
Maurice Morris (RB-SEA)

Reggie Wayne (WR-IND)
Andre Johnson (WR-HOU)
Isaac Bruce (WR-SF)
Eddie Royal (WR-DEN)
James Hardy (WR-BUF)

Mason Crosby (K-GB)

The 10-team league teams feel stacked until one remembers that those are 10-team leagues. The 14-team league team has an epic WR bounty, but two of these teams have almost comical QB issues.
