Here is one that I did two days before your draft and is very similar at the start.. A few tweaks after is what I did. Let me know your thoughts
Stafford, Rivers
Spiller, Stewart, Bernard, Blount, Payne, Cadet, Williams
Dez, AJ Green, Benjamin, R. White, K. Wright,
Eifert, Rudolph, Gates
Buffalo, Greenbay, Bullock
Yea I'm a fan of mine to be honest. I'm alot higher on Matthews then White. I'll call Eifert-JT a wash even tho I prefer JT and I'm sure u do as well. And I hate Stafford if I'm honest. I much prefer Brees who threw for 5k yds and 33 td's in a "down" year. Jstew- Hyde is wash. I see neither back catching many passes really.
It's basically Spiller over Sankey I'll give u and I'll take the rest of mine. I also think my bench RB depth offers alot more upside.
And I'm sure u disagree with all of that haha. That's my .02 tho.
Oh my gosh Gildz, If you truly believe that your running back depth offers more upside then you have lost all credibility on these boards. I will not be able to take anything you ever say again seriously...Stewart and Hyde are not even remotely close in my projections for one. In fact I have both Gio and Blount scoring more than Hyde. From that statement I bet you can guess how many times I own Hyde, that's right 0...
I obviously like Mathews more than White too but the difference isn't huge and most weeks White will not be my flex. During bye weeks your team will struggle mightly. Not even that but from week to week it will be boom or bust because Benjamin and Mathews are not matchup proof IMO...
Its funny earlier in this thread you were blasting someone for taking Sankey saying you saw what he was last year and he SUCKS.. Now you draft him and you think that he is a viable every week starter..
Holy crap you're arrogant. The idea that Hyde can't outscore JStew is just ridiculous, let alone not being remotely close in your projections. Again that's your opinion, but apparently your opinion is fact on these boards. I know you luckboxed this thing, but that doesn't mean your word is gospel. Well to some it is (cough, Scientist, cough, cough). Matthews/Benjamin aren't matchup proof? Geez, you're grasping at straws now. They'll be top-20 options every week, they shouldn't be benched ever. That statement alone has me questioning your credibility to be honest. That duo will be better then alot of teams starting WR's but they're not matchup-proof as my flexes. Ok.
And I stand by my statement. My RB depth offers more upside. Are they safer options, no. But all 3 handcuffs are top-15 options if the lead back goes down. You have Gio who's a glorified Danny Woodhead and already has shown he cant handle a full workload, and Blount who's upside is minuscule. The rest are just roster fodder. So yea I 'think' my guys offer more upside. See what I did there?
Regarding Sankey, I changed my tune. That's not allowed? Reports have been glowing out of camp while Cobb apparently has impressed no one. I hated Doug Martin also, but they're now raving about his prospects this year. Again, info can change and u adjust your opinion. Don't see anything wrong with that. Having said all that, I don't think Sankey is good haha. But I do think he"ll have every chance to show what he can do. If he falls flat on his face, so be it.
We can agree to disagree. Let the teams' production speak for itself. But you'll have to let me know which of the 60 Coots' teams this is..
