All Boom/Bust Team (1 Viewer)

[Pole Cat]

Most of us mix in some boom/bust, high-upside guys with solid, consistent performers. I'm curious what an entire team of boom/bust guys would look like. Forget Harrison, Holt, Hass, Deuce, etc. What kind of team could you put together that would absolutely dominate if everything goes right? I'm thinking it might look like:

QB: McNabb

RB: LJ/Gore

RB: Benson/Jacobs

WR: TO

WR: Calvin Johnson

WR: Arnaz Battle

TE: Vernon Davis

 

[BassNBrew]

QB: Mike Vick

RB: Kevin Jones

RB: Ron Dayne

WR: David Boston

WR: Mike Williams

WR: Jerry Porter

TE: Eric Johnson

 

[pizzatyme]

Kitna

McGahee/ Benson

Ronnie Brown/ MJD

Ward/ Moss/ Moss

Braylon Edwards/ Matt Jones/ Troy Williamson

Vernon Davis

 

[The Moz]

McNabb

Maroney

Portis

R. Moss

M. Colston

D. Branch

V. Davis

 

[Pole Cat]

Kitna

McGahee/ Benson

Ronnie Brown/ MJD

Ward/ Moss/ Moss

Braylon Edwards/ Matt Jones/ Troy Williamson

Vernon Davis

Good call on R. Moss. But I think Ward is the antithesis of what I'm talking about here. I think you can pencil him in for 900-100yds and 7-8TDs.

 

[Sweet Love]

QB: Delhomme

RB: Jacobs

RB: Barber III

WR: Hackett

WR: Santana Moss

TE: Vernon Davis (kind of a theme here)

 

[BassNBrew]

V. Davis won't bust.

V. Davis won't bust.

Agree. Targeting him in every league this year

 

[Scruff Mcgruff]

QB- Kitna

RB- Portis

WR-TO

TE- Davis

Why is TO a bust candidate? Is there really that great a fear that he'll do something like he did in Philly? If so, I hope you guys are all in my leagues. He's pretty much been fantasy gold his entire career, save the season where he only played 6 games for the Eagles.

 

[SSOG]

V. Davis won't bust.

Agreed. With such a strong history of production, it's silly to suggest that there's any but the most trivial risk attached to selecting him.

 

[KCC]

In leagues where QB points are skewed to favor rushing QBs, Vince Young.

I'll also second Benson at RB.

 

[On The Rocks]

All Bust (Top 15-20 per position)

QB - Matt Hasselbeck (not sure if he would qualify depending on where he is picked)

RB - Edgerin James and Laurence Maroney

WR - Marques Colston

TE - Alge Crumpler

All Boom (Top 20 or higher per position)

QB - Eli Manning

RB - Michael Bush

WR - Mark Clayton and Santonio Holmes

TE - Eric Johnson

 

[BassNBrew]

V. Davis won't bust.

Agreed. With such a strong history of production, it's silly to suggest that there's any but the most trivial risk attached to selecting him.

Last year he finished as TE22 as a rookie who only played 10 games with Eric Johnosn on the roster. So what's his downside excluding injury?
