Kurt Warner and renaming contest
Okay, so over the past few days I've managed to radically improve my team. Here is my current lineup, with bolded players being new additions:
Offense:
QB: Kurt Warner (96 overall), Steve Young (93 overall), Cam Newton (85 overall)
HB: Adrian Peterson (85 overall), DeAngelo Williams (84 overall)
FB: Stanley Havili (63 overall)
WR: Randy Moss (84 overall), Lance Moore (82 overall)
TE: Vernon Davis (95 overall), Jason Witten (93 overall)
LT: Joe Staley (87 overall)
LG: Justin Blalock (85 overall)
C: Scott Wells (89 overall)
RG: Brandon Moore (89 overall)
RT: Bryan Bulaga (89 overall)

SS: Ronnie Lott (96 overall)
Special Teams:

PR: Patrick Peterson (99 overall), Brandon Banks (99 overall)
Other:
Head Coach: Vince Lombardi (99 overall)
Jerseys: Carolina Panthers
Overall rating: 89
As you can see, a lot of new additions. Vernon Davis was priced insanely low at about 1,500 coins, and Kurt Warner was an even more absurd 3,400 coins. I'm a big Kurt Warner fan, so I'm really glad I could get him, and Vernon Davis makes a great TE duo with Jason Witten. You may be wondering why the Adrian Peterson card is rated only an 85 - it is a 'Treat' card, much weaker than any other AP card. Regardless, he and D-Will make a good one-two punch at running back and I'm not too conerned there. My biggest holes are at FB and WR currently - I wanted to get Mike Tolbert at FB, but all fullbacks are priced insanely high. I'm not as concerned about WR, given I run a lot of two-TE sets.
Also, I'm going to hold a little contest here. Right now my team name is "Panthers4Life", obviously a pretty lame name. So basically I invite any and all of you to suggest a name here - I'll take the suggestions and hold a poll here to determine a new team name.
Update: I've managed to acquire both Lawrence Taylor and Dick "Night Train" Lane since this post.
