CaptainHook Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 (edited) I cannot imagine Peyton duplicating this type of season again. The Colts have a lot of free agents on offense, including Marvin Harrison, Edgerrin James, and Brandon Stokley. Marcus Pollard will possibly be a cap casualty, as his cap number rises significantly next year. Although owner Jim Irsay says he will resign both Harrison and James, we have a long way to go until then. . .

Wolv Posted December 1, 2004 Author Share Posted December 1, 2004 If Priest is healthy that's where I'm going.......... 585318[/snapback] Certainly tough to argue that one. But Priest is in his 30-somethings and health is an issue. Manning is certainly in his prime. Good point Hook. I still believe Manning makes things interesting on draft day next year...

NAUgrad Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think Manning or Culp. are worthy of a #1 next year. I do, however, think LT will be taken #1 in more leagues than either QB. A healthy LT is very scary. Once RB's start to get injured who have been succesful for a long time, they tend to continue going down hill. Priest has 1 more great year left in him and 3 average years.

bumpersb Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Hard not to pick rb's but with a healthy R. Moss I say C-pep goes in top 5 as well. Although I will still stick with picking rb's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDFFFreak Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 In leagues where QBs get 6 points per TD, Manning will be the #1 pick overall. It'll be closer in leagues where QB TD passes are only worth 4 points each. If not Manning, I think LT is still the man despite the below average season for him.

phenom Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 585348[/snapback] An average year for Priest is a career year for LT. Holmes has played in 3 less games this year and still has 3 more TD's than Tomlinson............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedroz13 Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 I think the RB reign is about to end. Hard to pass on Peyton.... 585301[/snapback] Peyton , hands down. And no I am not a fantasy rookie , and yes I have always been the " draft RBs first , worry about QB later " guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Pimp Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 I'd go with LT first, Peyton second. Priest is starting to crumble...and late in the season when FFlers need him most is not worthy of the top 2 spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolv Posted December 1, 2004 Author Share Posted December 1, 2004 (edited) LT, Manning, Holmes, CPep, Moss (not in that order, not necessarily top 5) Does Manning force other QBs early??? Looks to be a VERY interesting draft. Edited December 1, 2004 by Wolv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Red Raider Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Man, you guys are good. I am still trying to decide who is my 1st W.R. I will start this week. That being said, one of our owners kept Peyton this year over Edge and I called him crazy. He has the most points in our "usually" heavy on R.B. league, due to making some key R.B. p.u. from free agency (Droughns after 1 good game). I think Q.B.'s and W.R's have a chance of scoring more points based on the rule changes in the NFL this year "no touchy". I still will go with a R.B., just stubborn.

pzarvell Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 It's still the same strategy as it was when Favre was the number 1 choice way back when... if you take a QB at #1, you will pay the price when no RBs are left in round 2. I'd still go RB in the first round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phenom Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Except when you get a point per catch which in my league helped LT be the #1 scorer last year. 585603[/snapback] How are those points per catch by Tomlinson working out for you this year...........

In 2005 i'll take the safer bet in LT over Holmes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizards Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 In a 10 team-2 player keeper league, my choices are Portis, Chris Brown, Ricky "Smokem if you gotem" Williams(pickedhim up this week-just in case) & Vick as potential keepers....be interesting to have to give up an RB if Vick continues to improve...wish I had LT, Holmes or Manning would make it easier!!!

Hat Trick Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Bottom line is Priest would have been back weeks ago if the season wasn't lost a long time ago. Why wear him down for nothing. He'll be even more fresh to start out the season next year, he'd be playing every week if the chiefs were in the playoff hunt, guaranteed, he would have never missed a game. He'd be #1 FF right now and will be at the end of next year as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
