numberFire writer Matt Goodwin gets team ranked last in CBS home league. What's your opinion?

Hope everyone is enjoying their Labor Day Weekend.

So I had my home league draft night and picked 3rd. 12 Team, PPR league, with bonuses for long TDs, pass TDs start at 4, rush/rec at 6, 100/300 yard bonuses of 5 pts etc. Did it on CBS who has a rating system which rated my team dead last, even though the Football Guys liked it.

We start 1QB, 1RB, 2WR, 2FLEX, 1TE, 1DST, 1K

Here's my team:

QB Wilson
RB Peterson
WR Mi. Floyd
WR Harvin
TE Reed
FLEX Murray (Picked #22 overall)
FLEX Lynch (Picked #27 overall after 10 WRs were gone including Alshon)
DST Bengals
K Catanzaro

Bench
RB Miller
RB Dunbar
RB C. Michael
WR Torrey Smith
WR Benjamin
WR J. Matthews
TE Kelce

Your thoughts on this team when you get a chance are greatly appreciated.

I like the team that you have put together. You essentially have 3 #1 RB's which is ridiculous. I am really high on Floyd this year and I think he will finish as a top 15 WR so He should be able to carry you at WR. The only suggestion I have is to get a TE that is a steady eddy. A guy like Witten or Walker would fit your team perfectly IMO because then the only position you'll have to worry about week to week is WR. Reed should be fine this year but with the way RG III has been looking I have a feeling that offense is going to have some abysmal weeks and Reed will suffer the most.

I really like this team Matty. Floyd and Torrey are great picks at WR and Percy has monster upside. Your RB situation is amazing too. Having the ability to start AP, DeMarco and Marshawn is incredible, and you got outstanding value for both of DeMarco and Beast Mode. I definitely wouldn't worry about what CBS rankings have to say.

Thanks Sam I realize Harvin and Reed have injury risk, so that's why I backed them up with a solid bench.

i cant see this team being last...rb depth is very good....wr has upside (harvin could have a nice year if he could ever stay healthy and i think floyd will have a nice yr) You got a te and a qb late, which is what i would have done as well. Your bench is balanced and has some steady players and some guys with upside. I think this team is fine and if a WR pans out, i say playoffs

I think CBS, ESPN, and Yahoo all use weird ranking systems when ranking there drafts. I have 3 teams this year and all ranked last on the sites review tools but none was lower than 4th in Fantasy Pros. In fact the other 2 were ranked 1st and 2nd. Without seeing the other teams I find it hard to believe that this team is any lower than middle of the pack. Depending on the other teams it could be as high at 3rd.
