Randall, quit dreaming and get Jennings off the top 10 list...

 

we all know he keeps getting slighted in the rest of season rankings but come on...

 

 

I don't know that it is that far fetched. Jennings will be a 3rd year WR that has had pretty good success in his first 2 years. the 3rd year rule suggests a possible breakout, and IIRC he's already #12 in average points per start with WRs that have 8 starts.

It must be hard as a Vikings fan. You just can't get the Packers out of your head, can you? Your eyes are drawn to Packer names and you cannot control yourself.

NFL has him #4 in receiving yards....just right behind Owens; Wayne and not too far from Moss. :D

 

I was shocked to see you are correct...then realized that, like last year, his production has come in 1-2 games ( just one this year, Week 2).

 

Last year, if I am correct, he had two blow-up weeks in a row...other than that, he was marginal.

 

Maybe he is Top-10 stat wise, but I'd rather have good-to-great production almost weekly, rather than have to hope my WR posts a blow-up week, or get squat.

 

I think this is one instance where the stats lie.

FWIW, my top-10 next year:

 

1. moss

2. owens

3. wayne

4. housh

5. a. johnson (he'd have been a monster this year barring innjury)

6. edwards (much will depend on who is tossing the rock)

7. fitzgerald (ditto)

8. smith (assuming he has a QB under 40 throwing him the ball)

9. welker

10. williams (moves down a notch, based on the maturation of Calvin Johnson)

 

And the next 10::

 

Burress

Holmes

Hackett

Jennings

C. Johnson

Boldin

Walker

Cotchery

Evans

Henry

 

there will be some serious fantasy WR corps next year....nice list of #2 WRs, eh?

1. R. Moss (assuming he's still in NE)

2. T. Owens

3. B. Edwards (with D. Anderson still throwing to him)

4. TJ Houshmanzadeh

5. R. Wayne

6. A. Johnson (physically, this guy is the next TO)

7. A. Boldin (assuming he's healthy)

8. S. Smith (assuming that Delhomme comes back 100%)

9. T. Holt

10. S. Holmes

 

Somewhere just outside the Top 10:

L. Fitzgerald

D. Bowe

M. Colston

R. Williams

B. Marshall

G. Jennings

 

Plaxico Burress and Lee Evans would be higher on my list, but they're too inconsistent. Marvin Harrison and Javon Walker are huge ??? with their knees.

and remove Roy Williams altogether from that list

Agreed. Way overrated.

 

It's amazing how much a guy like Roy pulls in.

 

For reference the last 4 years (since Roy entered the league):

 

Roy Williams - always called a stud

3652 yards, 28 TDs

Cost = an arm and a leg

 

Compared to a guy like Chambers (over the same timespan):

 

Chris Chambers - always called a turd

3663 yards, 26 TDs (not counting about 200 more yards rushing)

Cost = cold pizza and a warm beer

 

Name value is $$$.

Roy is younger than Chambers, so he gets bonus value for that. But not for anything else.

Martz is gone, Kitna on his last legs, and Calvin is in town.

When Calvin "the Brick" Johnson can actually catch, then we'll see if ever affects Roy's #'s. I don't see it happening, now or ever.

Tough list ...but i see a few with welker and few without

 

in PPR leagues especially i think Welker has to be in top 10 , no ? and thats with or without moss

 

 

In PPR if he can continue what he did this year if Moss stays. Withoiut Moss I 'm not so sure..

I'm not sure where the love for Chad Johnson is coming from. Two disappointing seasons in a row is not an aberration, its a trend.

 

Two Bengals? I think if you want to include two players from one team, drop Chad...and add Wes Welker. As long as that Patriot offense remains unchanged, he will produce Top-10 stats.

 

In High preformance scoring leagues with PPR Chad Johnson was #7 in 2007 and #6 in 2006. Everyone should have such disappointing years.

I think the problem people have with Chad is he had monster games and then less than desirable ones.

His end of year stats look very good. His week-to-week stats leave a little to be desired.

 

In 2007, he had 4 games where he scored a TD, that leaves 12 games where he did not.

And one of the games he scored in was week 17 (no joy).

3 of 15 weeks can leave a bad taste in one's mouth.

 

I'm not saying he's bad. I'd hate to face him on his good days.

People just wish he was more consistent.

the same can be said for most WRs every year...many are defined by their BIG weeks

Moss

Owens

Wayne

Edwards

Housh

Fitz

Colston

Plax

AJ

Welker

 

edit: Brandon Marshall has to be around 11 or 12...I can't think of some of the other young WR's, but Marshall gets top 15 rank, no worse..

 

Still putting Moss at #1? What if he doesn't resign with NE?
