Here is the preseason rankings so far, let me preempt this with i know there is a lot of rosters slots we all need to fill. Below is the top 5 scouting report.


#1 Naples Knights
Average Level:20.51
Payroll Status:~2.7million
Naples returns with the best passing game in the league. RolandB PLymill makes his return to the line up, the addition of a 3rd HB Bo Jackson, indicates the Knights are looking to expand their rushing attack into an already prolific passing game. On defense look for CB Pedro Ogogo to be a problem this new recruit from another BBB already has a distinct level advantage over much of the WR corp of alpha leage. At the moment Knights are in need of LB depth though.

#2 Toledo Scarlet Fever
Average Level:18.98
Payroll Status:~4million
Toledo looks to strengthen its already impressive running game with the signing of Dreadnok Nation A leagune running back Kicking Azzers. Look for them to hit the middle hard with the addition of Baggy Center, a C from another BBB league. As far as defense they currently lack comfortable depth in the DE and CB slots, but they have a VERY VERY impressive LB corps.

#3 Dusseldorf Demon Knight
Average Level:19.06
Payroll: ~4.5million
Dussseldorf lost the passing title to Naples by less than 100 yards last season. A majority of that WR corp has returns with the Maximus boys definately fitting into the plans of the Demon Knight passing game. Demon Knights have definately revamped their rushing game, first a impressive signing of a mostly new front line that atm, looks to outlevel most of the league, and secondly to 2 new FB's looking to lead the way of OJ and Rock. On the defense Demon Knights lack depth in the DE department, and could use another NT. Safties Baxter Serafin and Boo Yeah return to top off this hopefully improved defense.

#4 Zurich Zeppelins
Average Level: 18.88
Payroll: ~3.5Million
The rebranded Cologne Vikings look to restore their first half of season 6 glory. This eaerly favorite last year ended the season with some heartbreaking close losses and through new signings looks to fix that. Returning is Brohm General who was a threat all last season. Look for the Zepplins to have a ground rush that is tough to stop with the signing of HB Nick Vernon from Oceania A. Interesting to note it also looks like the Zeps are revampiong their passing game with a current 4 QB system but the notable additions to Charles O'Hara, and Gary Gusto. on the defense side, Poindexter Manly, and the La Serre brothers all nnew acquisitions from A leagues look to beef up the defensive line of the Zeps

#5 Barcelona Wildcats
Average Level: 16.96
Payroll: ~4Million
The Wildcats were a tough team last year looking to improve upon a first round exit in the playoffs. The bring back the possible best tandem HB's in the league with Mobb Deep and Breezy McBreezy looking to carry the ball for the Wildcats. With the addition of HUGE OT Ted Byles, the running game of the Wildcats should definately be a hassel. On the defense, while the safeties on this team look to be impressive there is a litle concern about the status of the defensive line.

#6 Cashville Dollar Bills
#7 London Aces
#8 Murdurapolis Zombies
#9 Subotica Mighty Dukes
#10 Schuylkill River Sharks
#11 Ash Vs. Team Rocket
#12 GASCONY BESTIAS
#14 Hamburg Flyers
#15 London Cardinals
#16 SU Spider Pigs
#17 Bellingham Goldfish

EDIT: Had to switch 1 and 2 after some more examination

From my initial glance you do have good HB's but you appear to lack any real depth in your line, which could be a problem. Last year except for "bugged" plays depth got most teams to the top.

we lack chemistry, and the ability to perform under pressure. there is much improvement needed for us to be a top team.

yea your team has a couple low levels and I am a running back and when I looked at your defence it looks pretty solid.
