So you guys are still taking him before the likes of Gore/Addai/Alexander in non-PPR leagues? and over Westy/Bush in PPR leagues?

FBG certainly agrees with their individual rankings.
He is ranked 3, 5, 7, 3, 3, 3, 5, 6, 3, 5, 3, 4, 3, 6, 3, and 5
by the individuals.
That seems pretty telling to me. And that has not changed very much.
I personally would hesitate to draft him 3rd, but we all have to make our own choice.

I took LJ third in a redraft league about a month ago and I'm not enthralled in owning him. I can't say that there is anyone that has emerged as a much better pick at the 3 spot though, so I guess I can live with owning LJ. But there are certainly enough questions to make it a lot riskier a pick this year than he was at the same draft spot last year (after LT and SA).

Last year he was a #2

That league really goes well against the grain compared to most leagues, but he still was a gift at that point.I just got him at 1.13 in Anarchy 4!
And this would tend to agree with the FBG expert rankings, since the lowest he is ranked by any of them is 7.

First off, HE"LL SIGN No Issue there!
Second, he had 400+ touches last year, he'll get that many again.
And he seams to stay healthy..........................
Just because the analysts say every one who had that many touches the year before gets hurt, that's the past ......................L.J. IS STRONG ENOUGH FOR THAT!!!
He's solid as can be to produce, If healthy, the Chiefs ain't scoring if they don't give it to him.
3.......but the lowest 5

I agree and understand. There are some scoring and lineup rules that push RBs down, but I was very surprised and happy to see him at that point.That league really goes well against the grain compared to most leagues, but he still was a gift at that point.I just got him at 1.13 in Anarchy 4!

I took Reggie Bush at 1.03 in my PPR Dynasty without hesitation.

I always assumed it was Ike.Edit to add: Though all Canadians from South Park use the same head, so maybe it should mean Canadian.<--is this Terrance or Phillip

Reggie Bush is the reason I had LJ ranked 4th in PPR leagues.

The scoring is very unkind to RBs, so this looks worse than it really is.Any openings?I just got him at 1.13 in Anarchy 4!

I think that is about right for him in Anarchy leagues. He did go at 1.03 in one of them, IIRC.I felt compelled to take him at 1.7 in Anarchy 3.That league really goes well against the grain compared to most leagues, but he still was a gift at that point.I just got him at 1.13 in Anarchy 4!

I think this is probably the best, most reasonable way of looking at it.LJ, barring injury, is seemingly a lock to end up in the Top 5 of RBs. He may only be #5, but it's hard to imagine he falls that far below that.
The other contenders for the #3 pick - Gore, Addai, Westbrook, Alexander - all could be Top 3 guys or they could fall out of the Top 10.
LJ, despite it all, is the safe pick at #3.
