I'm confused how you drafted such a weak team with 6 people in your pool. This would be a GREAT team, if you had 12-16 guys in your league. You need a much stronger team with the lack of GMs picking people though.
You don't have a top 5 player at any position, except MAYBE McCoy.
How many roster spots do you have for starters? I'm curious about your QB situation especially. It's obvious you are relying on Cam to get a lot of rushing yards/TD's despite his turnover problems.
I like the gamble on Decker, assuming his QB will elevate his game, but I'm not sold on the other guys. They are either hurting, inconsistent recently or have a QB that struggles to find them enough.
I think your RB situation is the weakest part of your team. Other than McCoy, you don't have anyone I'd trust to be a starter on my team.
Here is a blog that might cheer you up though Peach:

yeah,
Matt Stafford has 40 something td's last year..
I like my chances with him.
Willis might be older, be he's the solidified #1running back, and so is Ben Jarvis for that matter. Mark INgram's healthy this year, and didn't look to bad in his short stint. I like his chances at the goal line, for the Saints. McCoy is a top 5 running back, he was a top 4 pick in the fantasy draft, i believe he was ranked 3rd on the TOTAL LIST. He has some td's last year, haha like 17. correct me, i could be wrong.
AJ Green and Andy Dalton, they have a nice little formula.
Brandon Marshall, he's getting his ex-teamate back, and a quarterback that threw the ball a record 20 some odd times..

I'm looking at the Fantasy Rankings right now for Yahoo, ESPN and some random betting site that I found. It is safe to say that you didn't have a top 3 pick in a serpentine draft and your choices went like this:
Top 4 picks: McCoy, Newton, Green Stafford. Maybe the last 2 guys were switched.
Those picks aren't too bad... assuming you have 2 starting QB spots. Do you?
If you only have 1 starting QB spot, I'm not sure why you'd waste a 3rd round pick on a backup QB. But you could have done much better.
I just don't understand how you missed out on the 6 biggest producers out there. Top 6 picks in a standard format for this year HAVE to be (in some order):
Ray Rice, Megatron, Rodgers, Brady, Foster, Brees.
You don't have any of them? You said McCoy went 4th in your league. That means you had 4th pick and you missed out on the top 3 QBs, the top WR and the top RB.
I'll address your depth next.

Ellis sucks.
Finley is so overrated.
Jackson is injury prone.
McGahee is now playing with Peyton.
Ingrim is going to get short yardage situations only. Might put up son touch downs but I say he doesn't get many yards once again.
A League with 6 teams... GOOD LUCK PCHY~!

Now that the league knows what Green is capable of, I see alot of double teamsa and best CB coverage on him. I don't think he'll get the same amount of balls thrown his way this year. He's awesome though

Yes, but you still have to earn it (as Green did). Draft spot doesn't guarantee anything. For the most part, Julio Jones was fairly quiet last year and he was supposed to be wicked good. He was just alright, IMO... for such a "premier" talent.

I said maybe.
Depends on how you grade your players. Do you go with body of work? Do you look at last year only? Do you use projections?
There are tons of variables that come into play.
Right now using ALL of those things, you've potentially got: Rice, Peterson, Forte, Gore, Foster, Johnson, Turner, MJD and yes, McCoy.
I'd take McCoy over half those guys, but some wouldn't
