Retrograde assault Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 Does anybody think either of these guys is worth having on a fantasy roster in 05? I can free up some major cap room in a dynasty league if I ditch em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrappy1 Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 I'll have to preface this with the fact that I know little to nothing about dynasty leagues...I've never played in one, so keep that in mind. However, if you can indeed free up "some major cap room" as you say, then I would drop both of those guys like a bad habit. Garner is 33, and will be attempting to come off a potentially career ending knee injury (not his first one at that). Pittman performed well in Tampa last year, and I don't think Garner could beat him out for a job there...supposedly Tampa still wants to bring in someone better than Pittman, but either way, Garner should be out of the picture for sure. Smith is also 33, has been a career underachiever, and has absolutely no upside that I can think of. Tennessee would be making a huge mistake to not bring in a more talented guy to backup the oft-injured Chris Brown, and I just don't think that they're that stupid. With all the available talent at the RB position availabe via free agency and the draft (and maybe even by trade), I see absolutely no chance for either of these guys to have a shot at landing a starting job anywhere in the NFL, and both would be extremely hard pressed to find even a #2 slot in my opinion...I'd bet money that neither does and cut bait with both ASAP.

darin3 Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 If you're freeing up major cap space by dumping these guys, go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meat Face Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 definitely don't keep A. Smith. I don't think there's a snowball's chance in hell that Garner returns to the production of 2 years ago, so i'd probably dump him too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
