WOW, has he really fallen this low? After browsing a draft of site owners, I was shocked to see LJ having been drafted #9.... http://football33.myfantasyleague.com/2007...=73356&O=17 Has he really fallen this low?

Hey guys. hope your drafting season is going as planned! wanted to shed some light on two late round players with HUGE value! Joey Galloway - 1057 yards, 7 TDs. ADP in the 10th round. Terry Glenn - 1047 yards, 6 TDs. ADP in the 10th round. I didnt really like these players until looking over fantasyquants.com and seeing their value players for this year. I have to say, i would love to have two WR with this production in the 9th and 10th round, after I have filled my roster with 4 RBs, 1-2 WRs, 1-2 QBs, 1 TE. This is Coles type production 30 picks later in the draft. What does everyone think of both Glenn and Galloway?

ok, so the Vick thing just put a wrinkle into my draft. i have been following fantasyquants.com for a year now, and was going to take Vick as there top QB selection for this year. I see they just dropped him because of the legal issues. They still have (as the top value plays): Cutler Kitna and then added McNabb what two do you guys like out of this bunch?? obviously im going to be spending an earlier draft pick now. -shanks

i agree on a lot of these Deuce Edge T Jones J Lewis A Green Jordan Taylor i think you can indeeed throw in julius k jones warrick dunn

yes, so thats basically what i have noticed.... the older, less sexy players always are being undervalued, while the new hot tickets are always overrated.... i remember a couple years ago, i selected jj arrington in the 2nd round.... we all know how that did. but i then got tiki and curtis martin in later rounds and hit huge! i think thats what this fantasyquant.com data is showing, and even know i cant read their math completely, it seems cool. the rookies, like adrian peterson (every year) are taken way too early. for example, last year, ahman green / fred taylor were steals late....

so last week I asked a message board who everyone thought was the sleeper RB for 2007. I noticed a continuing trend throughout the picks. I saw a lot of people mentioning value and choosing the older (veteran RB) in 2 back systems... ie... "I like JJ in Dallas as the value pick, and in keepers, he could be even better elsewhere." so i did some research this past week into actual value players. i also read an awesome article on chad johnson vs. tj houshmanzadeh.... ill post it "I'm not saying TJ is a better receiver. He is not. But fantasy football is not simply a talent contest. It is first and foremost a numbers game. So why would I draft a less consistent receiver in the 2nd round of my draft, when I could have a more consistent receiver in the 4th round that will get me about the same amount of points? Consistency is king in head to head leagues, and TJ was all over CJ in that department in '06." anyways, i went scouting around for something that would actually rank so called value and take into consideration draft pos. and consistancy. thehuddle.com has something called consistancy rankings, which i thought was interesting, but did little very little for me in terms of value... the top 3 RBs were LJ, SJax, and Tomlinson. That seemed to me like the overall rankings rather than actual "value". i also found another site called fantasyquants.com they list a select number of value picks at each position. the top 3 RBs looked like: K Jones (who i am high on) Deuce J Jones seemed pretty cool. im wondering if any has any other sources or idea for so called "value"?

million $ question, CHAD OR HOUSH? im wondering who to take this year? i always try to get at least one Bengal, love that offense... is HOUSH just a better WR now? i know chad can throw up some 200 yard 3 TD games, but Hous is solid, and i can get him 2-3 rounds later. who would you take?
