All aboard the Maurice Drew bandwagon! (1 Viewer)

[Jeff Pasquino]

Interesting topic... this is exactly why I putted up the following poll 2nd tier rookie RB rankings to figure out why FBG MB prefered Jerious Norwood to Maurice Drew for [DYNASTY] purposes...

It seems to me that Drew's size only disavantage is for blocking - and this is why he might not see much playing time... he has tremendous muscle development, he's heavier than many elite RBs (Portis and Barber comes to mind)... he has tremendous burst & elusiveness - vision - good catching skills...

The Darren Sproles comparisons are way off base... he looks to me like a smaller Brian Westbrook (faster but not stronger than Westbrook) and a more explosive Warrick Dunn (but not having the power base that Dunn has)...

I've got the 1.11 pick in my [DYNASTY] league... and I'm wondering who to pick: Norwood / Drew / Calhoun... I think Drew has more upside... but the FBG love seems to go to Norwood...

Bloom and I disagree on this one, but I think we'd agree it is reasonably close.Norwood is more likely to get the chance to play before Drew just due to the logjam in Jax at RB.

I'm on board - but I have a dynasty seat.I don't think he gets much done this year behind both Greg Jones and a rejuvenated Fred Taylor.That probably guarantees injuries to both - but I'm not holding my breath on the #3 back.I do like him in 2007.

Has anyone looked to trading him to the Fred Taylor owner? If so, what kind of offers are out there?

Thought I'd bump this so we can merge the other MJD bandwagon thread that started today....
