The rosters are so big in this league there is no room for picking up a player in FA if one of your guys goes down. This is one area I don't like. I feel sorry for the guy who drafted Peyton Manning early and now has to go through the trash bin looking at scrubs and rookies who won't see much time to replace Manning on his roster!
My starters aren't all that great but if one of my QB's goes down for the year I might as well hang it up because there is no way to be competitive after that. Actually I'm not a quiter so I wouldn't do that but the huge roster size would be much better if the league had fewer teams...An example of this is when my starting QB's have a bye week I have to start Jake freakin Locher who may or may not even sniff the field this year, WTF?!
