Well you need to get people that do good in goal line situations, or get a lot of long passes for TDs. Some good players for this are Brandon Jacobs, Marion Barber, T.O., Marvin Harrison, Reggie Wayne, Marques Colston, and Deuce McAllister. Of course you want to try and get L.T., Steven Jackson, or Larry Johnson, is he works out his contract. Also pick people in high powered offences, like the Saints, Colts, Rams, Bengals, maybe even the Lions if they can work out all their kinks. For QBs, peyton is worth a lot more in TD only leagues, cuz he gets a lot! But if you dont, go for the three Bs, Brees, Brady, or Bulger, but Palmer is good too. Eli is pretty good at this, and so is Romo, hell, Rex Grossman is good at that, sometimes…
For TEs, go for Gates, he is a lot better than the rest. But Heap it good at it, and Shockey is pretty good too. As for DEF, get Bears, Ravens, or the Pats, San Diego isnt bad either, and the Broncos now have the 2 best CBs in the league. Good luck and hope this helps you.

This type of format changes things greatly. You have some great possession receivers who are valuable at the goal line but never put up 150 yards and 8 catches. You also need your QB to be the type to pass or run for lots of TD’s and probably the most valuable player is your RB. Look at Pittsburgh from 2 years ago, you wouldn’t take Bettis over Parker in a normal league but in your’s you would, because he gets the ball at the goal line. Gates and Shockey for great TE who get the ball never the goal. LT is the best overall pick of course and Manning as a QB since he throws so many passes for TD’s.
