Hope this isn't too sloppy of a copy and paste job, just emailed this to a co owner in one of my dyno's. Curious for some feedback, I still watched a lot of college football last year but real life is catching up so I didn't watch nearly as much as I have in the past
Mark Ingram New Orleans Can't miss, best runner on team, very explosive offense, limited ppr value though
Jacquizz Rodgers Atlanta Replaces Norwood, but also has featured back potential as Turner ages - this draft's MJD, downgraded due to height but talent is immense - I want
Mikel LeShoure Detroit I'm trying to trade for Best right now, love LeShoure but awful situation - he'll get the goal line, 4th quarter, and just spell Best the rest of the game - not worth the price of admission
Ryan Williams Arizona Fragile but very talented and opportunity coming with Beanie souring on mgmt, better risk in redraft than dynasty
Delone Carter Indy Under rated talent on a team with mediocre RB's making a concerted effort to fix the o line - quality round 3 buy
Bilal Powell Jets Very good situation, under rated player - Greene may be souring on mgmt so opportunity could be there soon - another buy
Taiwan Jones Oakland I think M Bush is gone and DMC is fragile, high ceiling player and opportunity could be there soon - see the last 2
Daniel Thomas Miami Don't think he's that good and I think Miami isn't planning on rolling with him as their only RB this year - way over priced
Dion Lewis Philly Great compliment to Shady, but a clear #2 in the pecking order - great cuff to Shady but limited upside otherwise - value in the 4th
Shane Vereen New England Just don't trust NE RB's, at best he'll be a fantasy #3 you don't want to start week to week - way over valued
Da'Rel Scott Giants These guys know how to draft RB's late and given the uncertainty of the current lot an opportunity could be there soon - quality 4th/5th buy
Johnny White Buffalo Sleeper potential here, Fred Jackson's successor and CJ Spiler isn't a full time back - another qualirty 4th/5th round buy
Roy Helu Washington Backup caliber RB, not a good long term solution - meaning he's a perfect fit for Shenanigans - avoid the headache - way too early
Kendall Hunter San Fran I thi nk the other RB on the roster Anthony Dixon is better, if something were to happen to Gore this is a committee - another way too early
DeMarco Murray Dallas At best he's a CoP back, good in the passing game and on 3rd down but that's it - as a true RB he's lousy
Alex Green Green Bay Opportunity's there, but really don't think he's any good of a RB and Green Bay has struggled evaluating RB talent
Jamie Harper Tennessee Opportunity but not much talent - probably not drafting
Jay Finley Cincy Opportunity but not much talent - probably not drafting
Evan Royster Washington Opportunity but not much talent - probably not drafting
Julio Jones Atlanta Perfect fit for Atlanta, #2 fantasy ceiling though
AJ Green Cincy More upside than Julio but has risks associated with rookie QB and Cincy in general
Greg Little Cleveland I have similar expectations for Little as I do Jones
Titus Young Detroit Perfect compliment to Calvin - if he falls deep enough and we have the picks I want him
Vincent Brown San Diego Probably won't fall far enough, but really like the talent and situation as SD has lots of WR's with expiring contracts
Edmond Gates Miami Really any of these 3 in the 3rd would be gold - perfect compliment to Marshall
Randall Cobb Green Bay Better NFL player than fantasy, would rather have the above 3 in fantasy as they have higher ceilings - he won't fall far enough
Jonathan Baldwin KC Not a fan - head issues I see becoming worse with a hot head for a head coach that is trying to do too much OC work (which he isn’t that good at) - great talent though
Tandon Doss Baltimore Better talent than Torrey Smith, if draft position is forgotten I'd bet on him winning the competition to be the deep threat in Baltimore
Leonard Hankerson Wash Just a bad feeling here, Wash WR's never seem to pan out and Hankerson has the same red flags most of them do - attention issues, hands, and routes - helluvan athlete though
Greg Salas St Louis Don't know anything about him outside of what I've read, I'd bet on Avery or Alexander winning the play making role over him - their health could open an opportunity though
Denarius Moore Oakland Like Salas don't know much about him, but haven't liked what I've read as much - clearer path to PT though
Jerrel Jernigan Giants Like Cobb, better NFL player than fantasy - not too interested in any more than a late round stash here
Austin Pettis St Louis Similar to Jernigan, upside is Amendola who I think he's replacing
Torrey Smith Baltimore Should be low enough that we don't get him - he's an athlete (with tiny hands) but not a wr
DeAndre Brown UDFA Honestly, I like these last 2 more than everyone listed before Hankerson - wasn't drafted because of head issues
Armon Binns UDFA Same - sticky hands, high points the ball well, and is fast enough - surprised he wasn't drafted
TE
Kyle Rudolph Minny Shank's contract ends after 2012, path to starter is clear - concerned about a low ceiling though, kinda like another ND TE - Carlson
Lance Kendricks St Louis Wasn't blown away by him in college, but McDaniels really pushed for him and is adjusting his offense (allegedly) to use him more - think I'd rather have the next 2 a round or so later
Jordan Cameron Cleveland One of these two will be a late round flier for us - former basketball players go pro football, Jimmy Graham potential for both
Rob Housler Arizona If you want to flip them because Housler was drafted a round earlier, have at it
Julius Thomas Denver Don't like the offense as much as the other 2 basketball players, same upside though
Luke Stocker Tampa Opportunity's there and like the offense but ceiling is much lower than the above 3
Cam Newton Carolina Better fantasy player than NFL due to his legs - won't fall to round 2 though
Blaine Gabbert Jax Lower ceiling, but safest bet in this lot to still be starting in 5 years - not sure when I'd feel comfortable taking him but probably not early enough
Colin Kaepernick San Fran Love this kid, love the situation - I want in round 3/4
Jake Locker Tenn Cam Newton only less uncertaintry about his accuracy - it's terrible
Christian Ponder Minn Doubts about situation and his ceiling is low, not overly interested
Andy Dalton Cincy Love his head but…it's Cincy. Too many doubts
Ryan Mallett NE I believe in the situation, he can overcome his head issues - might be a long wait though
Ricky Stanzi KC Not drafting but watching, don't trust Cassell and Stanzi is legit
Pat Devlin UDFA Not drafting him, but love the talent - on the watch list
OK, guess we just see it differently. I think most of the runs in that particular clip were more up the middle. But either way I'm now wondering if my note was from watching him myself or from another scouting report. Anyway, what do other people think?ETA: Just to add an example from the tape, watch the run that starts about 0:43 and then stop it at 0:48 or 0:49. In my opinion, a straight line runner does what Charles does here, which is pretty much run right into the defender and wiggle his way into the end zone. A cut back runner would cut to the right there behind (or in front of) the official where there is a ton of open space. The funny thing is that he comes up limping a bit as he scores. A straight line runner, again, IMHO, is more effective but also exposes himself to more punishment.
