All Shark Pool Hype Team (1 Viewer)

I thought it would be interesting to list a fantasy line-up of guys who were jocked hard in the SP the last couple years.

I'll give you a couple examples...

QB - Tebow

RB - Jackie Battle

WR - Denarius Moore

TE - Lance Kendricks

They can be guys that panned out, or total busts.

Mark Ingram - Legit talent. Didn't pan out in his rookie year. Now sounds like there are new knee concerns.

Austin Collie - Manning injury obliterated any value last year. Talks of Top Ten WR.

Sometimes the hype leads to gems. Other times optimism leads to empty hope.

I wish I could have put D Moore on my dynasty team.

 
I seem to recall a lot of Ray Rice hype the year before his breakout. If you want to point out the fails, you should also point out the hits.

 
Mike Williams
Which one? If you're talking Tampa Mike that was another hit for the Pool. He had a great rookie season. And then last offseason there was plenty of good discussion around here about him maybe regressing.
Yes it was a hit. Tampa Mike's rookie year there was a lot of great info in here about how he was looking in camp and etc. That same year BMW was making his comeback in SEA and there was actually a lot of comparative discussion about both of them. I grabbed Tampa Mike late that year thanks to the Pool. Then, yes, there was a lot of discussion about Tampa's fall from it's surprising heights.
 
The Chris Johnson Hype train took off before he did.

The Finley Hype train got out of control fast. But only after he posted the numbers.

Jared Dillard was "a top 10 rookie dynasty draft pick" at one point.

Jerious Norwood was also supposed to be the next breakout guy around 2008.

For all the pool's misses, it does reveal a good amount of hits as well. It is all a crap shoot...

you're showing our age. Barlow has been out of the league five years.

I hope no one says 'it'.. But good call with Finley.. Lord, I think there hasn't been a more played out schtick in here ever..
 
Denarious Moore all-hype?

supposed to mean didnt ever live up to it?

Longest lasting hype is J Stewart ... he still listed as top 30ish overall and probably longest lasting top 50 who has never outproduced his ADP

 
James Starks comes to mind, I agreed with that though I saw some talent there.

The worst was Delone Carter. Never understood that one.

Mark Ingram. You know "Emmitt Smith".

I'm sure some are holding out hope.

Gotta give props on guys like Denariius Moore, he was cheap and well worth the price.

"Never" is an awfully funny thing. Tell anyone who owned Stewart in 2009 that he's "never" out-produced his ADP.
 
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE = brandon marshall

I dunno if there was a 17 page thread about him, but....Rob Gronkowski.

Picked him up because of FBGs minicamp reports ("Man among boys out there") and some nice things said about him in the SP.

:bowtie: You're welcome. For RB it should just be "rookie RB" The dynasty owners always inflate the hype/ADPs of the rookie rb flavor of the year and the redrafters gobble it up.
