3rd and schlong Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 (edited) What do you guys think of him in a ppr this year? I have been able to get him at around 2.04 in a 12 team draft and like that pick there. edit- i cannot believe i spelled Michael wrong.

delusions of grandeur Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 In a non-PPR format, I would take him as high as 1.06, but in PPR, 2.04 or at least late first sounds right... Turner won't catch passes (ever), but a conservative prediction of his production is about 1200-1300 yards and 15 TDs if he can stay healthy all season... Even with a lack of PPR catches, that's still going to be good numbers in nearly any format. Other people might be skeptical about him after last year, but after coming into camp in much better shape, I'm hoping for a real bounce-back season from him.

I would probably take him as high as #4 in non-PPR formats. I think he's gonna score an azzload of TDs this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt. Stanky Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Serious bounce back candidate. It appears that his value is on the up and up though, so you can't get him at a discount like I was hoping. I think you're about right on though. 2.4 in a PPR sounds about right. I have him rated as my #7 overall player in non-PPR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Square Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I don't trust him and won't be taking him early. I'll grab him if he falls to me at a discount but it'd probably be in the 2nd before I grab him in a PPR (although the RBs in my ppr only get .5 per catch).

Tford Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Call me a homer, but I think Mike cracks the top 3 this year (non-PPR). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantazzle Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Call me a homer, but I think Mike cracks the top 3 this year (non-PPR). I think he will easily be top 5 this year, 4 at the highest. Just hoping he stays healthy. I would love to see him at the #1 spot thought. I'm a NIU homer, so always wish for my Huskies to do well in the NFL. Between him and Garrett Wolfe, it was quite and entertaining 5-6yrs of RBs to watch at Northern Illinois. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avernus Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 I would take him as high as 1.08 in a non-PPR... PPR league, I take him about early-mid 2nd....maybe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantazzle Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 He seems to be poised to have a big year. Hopefully he will stay healthy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a NIU homer, so always wish for my Huskies to do well in the NFL. Between him and Garrett Wolfe, it was quite and entertaining 5-6yrs of RBs to watch at Northern Illinois. I realize that health is a big question mark with Turner and it's not wise to project a 16 game season by using 9 games played but Turner put over 900 yards and 10 TDs over effectively 9 games last year. He left at the half of the Panther game in week 10 with 9 rushes for 111 yards. After that, he only amassed 40 yards. Not saying for sure that Turner would have finished with the projected 1600 yards and 18 TDs that the numbers indicate if he had stayed healthy but considering that he put up 1700 - 17 last year, I think it would have been doable. Those numbers slightly edge out Jones-Drew for top 3 in non-ppr. In ppr, I think late first, early second is the highest I'd entertain him (1.11-2.01) depending how the first round went. I'd take him over any QB not named Rodgers and any WR outside of the big 3. Really depends on who you like between SJax, Mendenhall and to a lesser extent Benson and DWill.

AFRO Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I too am intrested in how he will do. First year, forgive me for not having the raw data of his performance.. I thought he would not be able to handle the "FULL-TIME" workload after parting ways with SD to be the man in ATL...and had some health questions for him..horribly wrong so needless to say he blows up Last year I had him in the 1100+ yds, 16-18TD range, feeling good about it since he destoryed my thoughts on him and the "work-load" MattyIce had a year under the belt..Roddy keeping D's honest, Tony Gunz.. gets hurt... Now ofcourse, Iam high on him again, I think he can get back into the 1300 yd range again, though maybe not as many TDs maybe like 12-14 TDs (its early so i havent done all of my due diligence for projecting stats..) i am hoping to he gets things worked out with his general health, I think he could be a serious contender for Bounce Back type year player.
