With all of this being said what if Spiller and Mathews are 1st and 2nd drafted board is Dez better than McCoy? (league is ppr btw)FreeBaGeL said:They'll have teams in a few hours..But anyway, the bolded part of your statement is what I really want to touch on. I always have disliked this comment, but it really doesn't fit here. Similar to Knowshon Moreno, McCoy's value right now is lower than it was at this point last year, specifically because he *HAS* played a down in the NFL and people came away unimpressed.hostile said:Personal preference.I personally think young players in starting positions who were top picks last year hold more value than top picks this year who dont even have a TEAM, llet alone havent played a single down in the NFL yet.Colts Win said:1.3 is worth more than Mc coy and pick 21 IMO
Wouldn't you say that having never played a down in the NFL is better than having played in the NFL and looked bad? I'd much rather have an unknown as to how he will shape up in the NFL than to have a "known" that is below expectations.Thats why values on Moreno and McCoy are all over the place. A lot of teams took those two at 1.1 and 1.4 last year. So they expect that a year later, as they are closer to the prime of their careers, that they should be worth at minimum that same pick in this years draft. The problem is they both underwhelmed last year. I would rather take my chances on Mathews or Spiller, who while they both could such big time, have yet to prove that they do at the NFL level.
