Default A little help

Hey guys. I could do with some suggestion about a few players.
I'm playing a 16 teams fy league that takes in consideration only :
points +1
rebs +1
asts +1
stls +1
blcks +1
TOs -1
TFs -1

I'm cool with who I drafted up to now:
Ming, Pierce, Gasol, Brand, Kevin Martin, Barbosa, Maggette
and I was thinking for next picks:

Joe Smith (CHI)
Mike Dunleavy (GSW)
Martell Webster (POR) <- I really hope he can fall to 104.. now we're to 94..
Chris Kaman (LAC) <- not really sure
Carlos Delfino (TOR)
Luis Scola (HOU)
Marvin Williams (ATL) <- good hopes for him too.. I'm thinking about trading up from my next after 104 (155) to try for him.
Al Horford, (ATL)

What would you say about them?

Other still undrafted:

Calderon, Stevenson, Salmons, Belinelli, Warrik, francis, Daniels, Gibson, Nachbar, Thornton

There is pros and cons to most of the guys on your list, but these 4 are probably the best of the bunch based purely on ability and oppertunity.

Horford(only low post guy Atlanta has, he will be a big minute rookie)
Williams(still has a ways to go, consistancy is an issue)
Calderon(consistant as they come, would start on many teams)
Thornton(Brand's injury will give him the chance to prove he is worth big minutes as a rookie, pretty much just a scorer though)

Would be the way I would be picking.

A guy like Webster is a gamble because he could be playing 35 minutes one night, and 11 the next. Kaman has to prove himself again, the ADD seems to hurt him more than people realize. Warrick and Gibson are the only other 2 likely to break out... I would add Belinelli in there, but Donnie Nelson is nuts and he will be just like Webster, 35 minutes one night, and 11 the next.

the best players come tobe the good PF or C, capable of many pts and rebs: Garnett, Duncan, Yao, Gasol, Brand.. but great scorer or very good passers are valuable as well.

The really nice thing about this system (hoops.sports.ws) is that it has a head to head schedule and games.. i.e. to the fantasy 3rd match contribute all the 3rd matches of every player.. and the contribution of every player to your team depends on the time he plays and the position he has in your lineup.
