Should I take this FF bet?
 
I am in a $40 league and the draft took place a couple weeks ago. A guy in the league challenged me to a $25 side bet on whose team will have a better record during the season/place higher. Here's our teams: I'll let you decide.

My team:
QB- Bulger
RB- Dominick Davis
RB- Rudi Johnson
WR- Javon Walker
WR- Anquan Boldin
TE- Antonio Gates
K- Shayne Graham
D- Carolina D
Backup QB- Aaron Brooks
Backup RB- Willie Parker/Travis Henry
Backup WR- Muhsin Mohammed/Lee Evans
Backup TE- Heath Miller


His team-

QB- Kerry Collins
RB- Willis McGahee
RB- Julius Jones
WR- Mark Clayton
WR- Steve Smith
TE- Eric Johnson
D- Redskins D
K- Mike Vanderjact
Backup QB- Carr/Harrigton/Pennington (he did auto-pick after 10 rounds)
Backup RB- Cedric Benson, Michael Bennett
Backup WR- Laverneous Coles

League scoring is pretty basic, QBs average 14-20, RBs average 10-17, WRs average 7 to 14....pretty normal.

His team is better than yours.

He has the edge in RBs in my opinion. That is all.

Feel free to correct me. I feel my team is better but wanted other opinions.

Two people did (correctly) correct you. You told them they were wrong. So what was your purpose again?

I was responding to them. They both said the same thing, that I had a worse team. I asked them why, in the form of a statement. I feel I have him in every category except for RBs. Is the difference in RBs enough to offset my advantage in every other position?

Rb's are the most important in Ff. His are better than yours and have the potential to be WAY better than yours.

Your qbs are close, while his has the potential to be WAY better than yours.

Your wrs are close.

So you have the potential to win, sure, who knows what will happen. But his team has way more potential than yours and will most likely crush you if things go well for him.

edited to add: i was in a keeper league that disbanded and my 4 rbs were both your guys' starters. im [censored] pissed [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
