piratesownninjas Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 any thoughts? =I think leaving Reggie Wayne off your list is insane. He is in my opinion, no worse than the number 3 receiver on the board. I actually have him as second behind Andre Johnson. Reggie doesn't take plays off like Randy Moss. He was within 5 points of Fitzgerald last year, and I have to think that with Leinart there will be a ever so slight dip in production from him. Losing Boldin won't help things either. =Benson shouldn't be in the top 15 before his arrest. After that, I wouldn't have him in my top 24. He looked worn down during the last month. I don't think he can withstand a full work load for an entire season. 1. Ray Rice- I think Willis McGahee will do what LenDale White did from 08-09. Rice will get those TD's 2. Adrian Peterson 3. MJD 4. Chris Johnson-I think his frame and build was over worked, and rarely to players with all time years follow it up as well. 5. Aaron Rodgers-The best fantasy quarterback on the planet. Does what Brees and Manning cant: Score on the ground. 6. Steven Jackson 7. Frank Gore 8. Drew Brees 9. Andre Johnson 10. Reggie Wayne-Safest WR pick in the draft. 11. Randy Moss 12. DeAngelo Williams 13. Larry Fitzgerald 14. Ryan Grant 15. Rashard Mendenhall 16. Knowshon Moreno 17. Brandon Marshall 18. Peyton Manning 19. Michael Turner-Reminds me of post 400 carry Larry Johnson 20. Miles Austin 21. Beanie Wells 22. Tony Romo 23. Steve Smith NYG 24. Tom Brady Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piratesownninjas Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 I also tend to think that Calvin Johnson gets ranked more on potential than anything else. He was awesome in 2008, don't get me wrong. And he has the potential to be a top 5 wr, but I think he needs to prove it for more than one season to get the rankings/hype he's getting from a lot of outlets.

rdh21 Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 I agree with your list except for Steven Jackson. He is a very good running back but on a team right now thats trying to rebuild and get their act together.......... =I think leaving Reggie Wayne off your list is insane.

piratesownninjas Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 WOW! First time I took a look at that list.......Fitz....28th................................... 28th for all positions. He's the no.10 WR in the rankings... With Leinart there instead of Warner, I think he's somewhere around 7ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpholmes Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I agree with your list except for Steven Jackson. He is a very good running back but on a team right now thats trying to rebuild and get their act together.......... Which is why he's even better imo. Your point is irrelevant as far as I'm concerned, because a lot of times great fantasy backs play on mediocre teams. They will hand it to him on first and second down, and throw it to him on third. Sure - he might miss 2-3 games because of it - but his numbers the other weeks will be excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see not considering him in the very top tier, but the guys floor/ceiling is so much higher then a lot of guys ranked ahead of him. Not trying to fish or anything but what is the logic behind the rank DMD? I feel that the loss of Warner leads to poorer QB play but also more targets overall and more garbage numbers so I feel it's a wash. Not to mention he does have a super elite skill set to help compensate. Hate to feel like I'm missing something major here, so please enlighten me kind sir.

rebdog Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Roddy White needs to be on there ahead of Brandon Marshall IMO...and Miles Austin. And Knowson Moreno needs to crack 4 yds per carry and look quicker than Corel Buckhalter before I give him that kind of respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gone is the ZBS, and in is a power rushing attack, which plays to Moreno's strengths. He'll have your respect in just a few short months.

Ralph Furley Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Any thought to LeSean McCoy cracking that top 24 list in a ppr league? I probably haven't been paying as much attention as I should be regarding him, but to me, it seems he could be a candidate for that group.
