whomper Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I took him with the 2nd overall in one of my drafts but I have a gut feeling that SJax will not put up #s worthy of that pick..Who do you think will not live up to the hype this year ?

Hat Trick Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Well I'd have to disagree about SJAX, he is someone I ouldn't be surprised to end up #1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite possible but I think he got his stats in bunches last year as opposed to consistent weekly numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avernus Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Quite possibly Randy Moss... I've seen him go in the 3rd or 4th, though... you think he will underperform that draft slot?..people have him (maybe) in their top 10... I've moved him up because Brady will look to him for the big play.... he knows he's capable of it and will place it a little better for him so he doesn't get hung out..

Avernus Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 MJDA. Peterson A.Green V.Young S.Alexander I personally think MJD has been overhyped as well... but Ahman Green is getting no hype and being drafted Around the 6th round area ...

cory_n_az Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 #1 -- Ronnie Brown The Dolphins will be terrible this year. Awful O-line and a rapildy declining QB in Green. At 230 lbs+, Ronnie also needs to learn to hit the hole and stop dancing behind the line so much. I'd take MJD in a time share with Freddie over Ronnie basically having the job to himself.

Perchoutofwater Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Brees - Last year they didn't run as much because they were not sure how Duece's knee would hold up. I think they will run more this year. McNabb - I just don't think he can stay healthy, and he isn't gong to be as mobile this year as he has been in the past Romo - I think he is just a tad over hyped. VY - He has no WR's, and everyone knows it, so he won't be getting the rushing yards he had last year. MJD - With Jones healthy this year he won't get as many short yardage and goal line carries as he had last year. Also, people forger Fred is still pretty good, and didn't get a contract extension to ride the pine. Maroney - I'm concerned about his durability and for the first time Brady has two legitimate WR's to go to. We may see some more passing out of NE. LJ - when is he going to get into camp? Is Priest going to come back? I can see Priest being a pretty good 3rd down back, stealing some carries. Willie Parker - New coaching staff. Supposedly Big Ben is going to get to open it up more, which may mean less rushing attempts. Colston - See my comments on Brees, plus every one has seen him on film now. Harrison - I still think he will be a top 10 WR, but he is being drafted top 5 in most leagues Boldin - I think ARZ is going to run a lot more and Fitz will get the majority of the receptions Tony Gonzales - He is going to have to stay in and block more, plus his QB situation isn't that good Crumpler - He's still having problems with the knee, and with Vick gone some WR's might actually catch a few balls. Jacksonville - Who is going to replace Darius, can Peterson stay healthy? Their DEs are every bit as bad as their DEs are good. Rookie at CB in Nelson. I see them getting passed on a lot. San DIego - Wade left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thews40 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Adding: R.Brown -He was drafted too high last year, he'll be drafted too high this year. He's a good back.. good and steady for the most part, but there's no insane weeks and some turds. S.Alexander – Did anyone who had him on their roster last year in a re-draft win? He’s breaking down, and it wouldn’t shock anyone to see him not make it the distance again. MJD – Fred Taylor is still there. What makes anyone think this isn’t just a good RRB is reaching. We pick draft slots tomorrow and I’m hoping like hell I don’t get 5 – 9. If I didn’t get 1-3, I’d want 12 next. We’re gonna do the flip at the 3rd turn like you guys advised… good idea.

Sturphy Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 GoreAddai Henry Benson Wow...I think all four of those guys will perform admirably this year. I think they're a few of the least likely to "underperform" based on draft position. Instead I'll go with Shaun Alexander, Willis McGahee, LJ, MJD, and Brian Westbrook.

Thews40 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Shaun AlexanderEdgerrin James Deuce McCallister Brandon Jacobs Tatum Bell Jay Cutler Trent Green Vince Young Randy Moss Marques Colston Darrell Jackson Deion Branch Jerricho Cotchery Vernon Davis Agree with Moss, strongly disagree with Colston. Those that drink the sophomore slump Koolaid are putting too much stock in it. Brady has never consistently thrown to one receiver… more like one of any given five on any given Sunday. Brady finds the open receiver, and while I think Moss will be good (though he has great hands he's lost a step), I don’t think he’s worth his ADP.. more like a good WR#2. Colston plays on a team with Duce/Bush. There’s just too much firepower in the middle to contain all the WR talent. If Colston gets doubled, then Brees will find the open man. When the D slips and Colston breaks it… money. IMO Colston could be top 5 at the end of the year easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Square Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Hmm...it basically looks like everyone I was going to pick is forecasted by someone to underperform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i_am_the_swammi Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Some I am letting others draft...not that I think they won't be OK, just that there is a better chance they underperform their ADP than outperform: Colston Henry Mcgahee Jacobs Kitna C. Johnson And some I am angling to get an inside track on and draft if they fall below their ADP: Alexander Maroney Foster Norwood J. Jones Reg. Brown D.
