So when a player holds out, it is very common (assuming the holdout is rather lengthy, and we are approaching the point where it is too much) that he has a season sub par to what is expected of him. Using ADP's from FFC I'll give a few examples:
Mike Wallace is getting drafted as the wr11. All reports are good on Big Ben, and Todd Haley is assumed to have a passing offense that really helps #1 receivers (see Dwayne Bowe). Regardless of what many think of Antonio Brown, IMO Wallace is the #1. So does this make Mike a big time value or fools gold (looks good, but the holdout gets to him).
Matt Forte is getting drafted as the rb12. Last year he was an uber-stud pre-injury. His injury was not bad enough to keep him out of the pro-bowl, so he should be in good physical shape. Bush is muchhhh better than Barber, but Barber did average 10 carries a game and have 6 tds in 11 games. Forte is never really the goal line back, but he churns out so many yards, and especially for ppr purposes, he is a threat to be a top 5 rb. So..do Bush, the injury scare (people are still worried considering the Bears are too), and the hold out help make him a value or fools gold?
You can post any amount of hold outs in here. This is not a thread to discuss these particular players. I'm just wondering how people evaluate players like this. Do you target them thinking they are values, or ignore them trying to be risk-adverse?
