Isn't that how you spell Rice?He would play better for you if you spelled his name correctly
"What happened in one preseason game to move him 20+ spots?"
I almost drafted him right before you, I had to talk myself down, I've taken Qb's earlier than normal this year in drafts due to the fact that I just think people are letting them go a little longer, at least in the ones I've been in. So here, I wasn't taking a QB even though I had to say to myself the entire time " I'm not going to do it, I'm not going to do it" but there wasn't a ton on the board as far as value that I could see so I took the shot with Rice, someone who could certainly crack the top 10 at WR t his year if all the news surrounding him and Farve is just preseason hype.
LOL nothing, I just rubbed my crystal ball. That sprinkled in with a little common sense that Farve is now back and news of him starting to feel better, I can see him creeping back in to my top 10 anyway. There were already 10 or 11 WRs taken, so what the hell, why not. I wasn't in love with any of the guys at WR that were left on the board at this stage so S. Rice (how's that Hook) to the pro bowl!"What happened in one preseason game to move him 20+ spots?"
Two reasons, one not particularily good.1) I drafted Schaub in ultimate survivor and I'm superstitious. If I had taken him in both leagues he would have laid an egg in week 2 and eliminated my in both. I also think I got Schuab on my SSL team.2) Basically I see them as a push. Brady has an earlier bye which I like in this format. Most believe that Brady will have more passing TDs while Schuab will rack up the yardage. I think Brady will have more variation in his weekly point totals and Schaub will be more consistant. Given that I'll likely have a back up QB I wanted the selection that had higher weekly upside. Moss/Welker/Edelman/Tate seem more explosive than AJ/Walter/Jones/Daniels. Speaking of Daniels, he's a potential consideration at the 4/5 turn so I didn't want Schuab's bye at this pick.
Well I can answer your question but still haven't got an answer to mine."What happened in one preseason game to move him 20+ spots?"
hedging bets is a valid reason. But can bite you in the ###, I passed on CJohnson because of that very reason in a league. You rank players higher for a reason. In my own personal rankings Ive got Schaub higher.
There's a pretty good chance that the majority of this group is using the updated FBG's rankings as evidenced by the latest Draft Dom release.It's a classic example of herd mentality based on the common shared perception.Well I can answer your question but still haven't got an answer to mine."What happened in one preseason game to move him 20+ spots?"
