Big Dogs Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 DMD, who is Jake Richmond?? The guy that wrote the article about CJ being the overall "consensus" #1 pick??? He sold the kool-aide, I ordered a double. My fault for buying in, however, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice ain't gonna happen. Need to make sure I avoid any and all articles or advice he offers moving forward.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All analysts and so called experts were all over Anderson's nuts going into the season. Richmond on the other hand, dude has made some great calls outside of Anderson - listen to a few of the Blitzed podcasts from last year - he was spot on on a lot of his predictions on who to target, and who to stay away from.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inziladun Posted October 19, 2015 Author Share Posted October 19, 2015 In other news, Hillman looked alright this week. Too bad he's a fragile POS, if CJ didn't steal the carries because Hillman can't stay healthy half a game, he would of gone off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree. Don't be hating on Jake. Dude is on the ball. The CJ situation is pretty damn ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dooley_Mau5 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Yeah I didn't buy into the whole Anderson in the first round thing. And glad I didn't. I did, however, buy into Monte Ball last season so...yeah. And I drafted Jeremy Hill who's pretty much losing his job to Geo Bernard (FML) and I could have gotten Forte but I kind of thought he would have a down year since he kind of struggled last season (sighhhhh) the struggles of being the 9th pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wpob Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 If you can get something of value for Anderson, go for it. However, I am trying to lowball the Anderson owner in my league. As Manning's arm gets worse and the weather gets bad, the running game will be needed more. I do not trust Hillman. For a low price, I will roll the dice that Anderson comes around towards the fantasy playoffs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have listened to most of the Blitzed podcasts, and now realize where I've heard Jake's name before..... You are right, there has been some great insight from that entire group! And I have also listened to many other "experts". While many people were hyped up over Anderson, at the end of the day, I've always relied on on the Huddle's experts to help me make the final decision...... It's why this is the only site I pay for.... I really am not trying to "hate on Jake", as BA put it........ however it was his in-depth and detailed analysis that gave me the confidence to make that pick, and unfortunately, in this case, it ended up being a big swing and miss. At the end of the day, I, and only I, made the decision to take CJ Anderson over guys like Lynch, Peterson, Forte, & Brown, so that's on me completely!!! It was also harsh for me to say I would avoid all his advice in the future, however, I will not and cannot give as much weight to his advice moving forward as I did in the past...... It's kinda like the old weighted averages spreadsheet Rhino used to do. For me, his weighted average on advice just got knocked down a notch or two....

Wow I took him in the 2nd round after all of the guys I really wanted were gone, and still am ticked off about it. Taking him before those guys you mentioned must really sting. I ended up taking a lot of guys on my teams this year that I didn't have a good feeling about and am really paying for it. CJ is one of those guys, I wish I would have listened to my gut.

Sunday Couch Potatoe Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I still have him deep on my bench in two leagues and have dropped him in a short bench by issue week league. All 3 leagues I chose him in are no surprise my three worst records and teams. Completely wrong on him this year my fault and nobody else's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mpup89 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I just traded CJ and Greg Hardy for Melvin Gordon. Obviously Gordon has been under performing and can't hold onto the rock but I was absolutely done with CJ. Gordon SHOULD have more upside too.

It is impossible to not have big misses in fantasy, it just about skewing probability in your favor ever so slightly. The process that led to ranking CJ high was sound, no need to blow it up over a miss that is a statistical inevitability. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inziladun Posted October 28, 2015 Author Share Posted October 28, 2015 I dropped CJ. Wanted to hold onto him one more week but my team couldn't take the hit and I need to make moves to better my chances in the playoffs (IE. stash Romo). Slightly sad about it, i'm holding Hillman through this week, if he overtakes CJ then all the better, if CJ comes back with lead role then at least I'm done with the headache.
