Fantasy Sports Writers Association (FSWA) Draft

Here is my team and I am not happy with it.
I drafted from the 9th spot and the league is filled with 11 other professional sports writers from the FSWA.

Live online draft, 20 rounds, scoring PPR.
Start 1/2/3/1/1/1 plus a flex

QB
Russel Wilson-SEA/4
Eli Manning-NYG/8

RB
Doug Martin-TB/7
Rashard Jennings-NYG/8
MJD-OAK/5
D McFadden-OAK/5
DeAngelo Williams-CAR/12
S Green-TEN/9

WR 
Demaryious Thomas-DEN/4
Brandon Marshall-CHI/9
Vincent Jackson-TB/7
Eric Decker-NYJ/11
Reuben Randle-NYG/8
Harry Douglas-ATL/9
Mike Williams-BUF/9
Andre Roberts-WAS/10

TE
Jason Witten-DAL/11
Heath Miller-PIT/12

K
Dan Bailey-DAL/11

DEF
CLE-4

I went WR-WR from the 9th with D Thomas and B Marshall.
Doug Martin in the 3rd was great as I think he is money in TB after the Chris Sims injury. Martin will be a workhorse. VJAX in the 4th was a value play-could not let him slide more. Jennings in the 5th was a nice RB2 after going all in on 3 WR in first 4 picks.
Witten still available in the 6th surprised but he has been falling along with Romo during Romo's back concerns. I am all in on the duo this year! Eric Decker (4th WR) instead of Danny Woodhead is where the draft went off the tracks-too many WR there. Should have solidified RB. At this point I can get some sleeper WRs on waiver wire who could hit to be my WR4/Flex. I need to go RB in the 7th. MJD, D Williams and McFadden follow in the 8th-10th.
Love Rusell Wilson in the 12th! He a great indoors.
Eli in 15th on the chance he has bounce back year-has not shown it yet in preseason but worth a flyer.

 I waited on DEF until the last pick and will do a DEF by committee approach.

OK so maybe not so bad a team after all.
