I will take Peterson, the Junior

 

[The Barber]

Caddy. Look for a bounce back year. How soon people forget that last year people hailed him as the next LT. Easy top 10 to 15 next year.

Who hailed him as the next LT?

I agree, easy top 15 next year. Fix the line, Alstott likeely gone, and a better QB = improved #s.

Who hailed him as the next LT?

I have to agree with the Barber on this one, cause after his huge start he had more hype than Reggie Bush

People being wrong one year doesn't make it right the next. I'll take Peterson, in a year he'll be top 10, 2 years he'll be top 5 or better.

I don't recall anyone hyping Caddy to be as good as LT but man this guy is good. You see what happens when he actualy gets carries. He gets a lot of yards and 1st downs. Chucky is really hurting Williams performance with how he is using Alsuck at the GL and Pittman on 3rd down/passing situations. On top of that Gruden just plain throws the ball too much too early and too often.Caddy 2005

The Carolina and Atlanta games are the only games that he got 18 carries yet failed to produce over 4 ypc. For the most part as long as Caddy gets touches he produces good results. I think he is being undervalued right now as I don't see his situation not improving moving forward. Although I would like to see him work for a different coach.

biabreakable: I'm not going to quote your whole post, just too big, but I somewhat agree that Caddy is undervalued right now, I just wouldn't take him above Peterson.

Even without knowing if Peterson will play for a pass happy coach like Martz? Or what if he gets drafted behind a Rb such as SA and has to wait for his turn like other great Rbs have had to?Ahh the love for rookies.

 

[Tick]

It's yours again, Biabreakable - let me know if you want me to edit out the crown and subtitle of this one once you start the next poll.

No the crown identifies the post as pertaining to dynasty leagues. Need you to close out these polls before I can take over though. However long you think that may be?

Well, first, I don't see Seattle in a position to draft AD. Of the teams with a fair chance of drafting AD, the only team that would concern me at all is Arizona.

Results:

Maurice Jones-Drew 3/23/1985 [ 27 ] ** [21.09%]

Carnell Williams 4/21/1982 [ 25 ] ** [19.53%]

Chester Taylor 9/22/1979 [ 12 ] ** [9.38%]

DeAngelo Williams 4/25/1983 [ 14 ] ** [10.94%]

Biabreakable will do a runoff, I guess.

 

[fruity pebbles]

Can we bump Alexander out of the four spot?

 

[trader jake]

Bumping Kevin Jones out of the #9 spot is the real "oops" now.

I don't see how any player would be bumped from thier slotting. These are dynasty rankings. I surely hope that the circumstances of a few weeks would not change peoples perspective that much... but perhaps it does?Anyhow I am sure that these will be revisited again during the offseason. These will serve as a good tool in the meantime and hopefully a usefull guide to reference before repolling.Tick I am not seeing the results of this poll leading to a run off. I think runoffs are somewhat counter-intuitive and I would like to avoid them if at all possible. You closed this, I read the results as MJD won and Rb #17 is still up for grabs. We do not know who the people that voted for MJD might vote for at #17. They might vote for a player that didn't get as many votes as the 2nd or 3rd place players in this poll.Thats my take on it although I am open to people telling me why I should view the results differently.

When tick posted, three RBs were within 3 votes, that would call for a runoff IMO. Maurice Jones-Drew 3/23/1985 [ 27 ] ** [21.09%]Carnell Williams 4/21/1982 [ 25 ] ** [19.53%]Adrian Peterson Sophomore [ 24 ] ** [18.75%]BUT, since then, MJD has gained more votes, so no need for a runoff now IMO.

I agree that dynasty rankings should not be bumped for minor ankle sprains or other assorted temporary ailments. The injury Kevin Jones recent suffered sounds a bit more severe and one that should cause many to second guess ranking him over players of relative value. At this point I would bump Kevin Jones below every one of the RB's who have been slotted so far and the next top choices as well.9t. (now listed below)

9t. 9. Reggie Bush 3/2/1985

11. 10. Willie Parker 11/11/1980

12. 11. Laurence Maroney 2/5/1985

14. 13. Rudi Johnson 10/1/1979

15. 14. Willis McGahee 10/20/1981

15. Maurice Jones-Drew (won this vote)

16. Cadillac Williams (will win the next one)

17. Adrien Peterson (will win the one after that)

18. Kevin Jones 8/21/1982

 

[Romulan]

Caddy. Look for a bounce back year. How soon people forget that last year people hailed him as the next LT. Easy top 10 to 15 next year.

 

[Tick]

Whatever you think is right is fine with me, Bia - I was just covering for you for a bit.

 

[Mr. Peterson]

Man, I've been gone for a little while and came back to see you guys voted Drew here over Peterson? Are you serious? That's just horrible and stupid.

 

[Cannon Fodder]

Man, I've been gone for a little while and came back to see you guys voted Drew here over Peterson? Are you serious? That's just horrible and stupid.

Yeah, I agree. I brought up the point a little while ago about rookie dynasty drafts. If you had the 1.1 would you trade it to get MJD? You know you wouldn't! Anyone who says they would is a liar or MJD's cousin.

So do any of you that voted for MJD want to answer my question. I mean this is a dynasty question, right? It's a simple question, would you trade the 1.1 in this years draft for MJD?

Three points about Peterson1. He’s injured2. No one has a clue what team he is going to play for3. You don’t know how he game translates to the NFL. Lots of high draft picks bust in the NFL.That’s a lot of uncertainty. If someone offered me a 21 year old player, averaging nearly 6 yards a carry, that has already scored 15 TDs, I would give them the 1.01 pick in a heartbeat. MJD’s value is not exactly going down.

I think you're lying. Do you realize what it was taking to get the 1.1 last year (for Reggie Bush) and this year the price will be just as much (for Peterson). I can promise you that there will not be one person out there that will trade thier 1.1 for MJD. If they do they're an obvious fool. Even just for the fact that they could get alot more than just MJD alone in the trade.

Peterson is not worth as much as Bush was. It's not even close. No running back has ever had that much hype. Look at the poll. MJD is increasing his lead.

The Bush hype was not that big at this time of the season last year. It grew around combine time. Wait to see what Peterson does at his Bowl game and then when he shows what he can do at the combine (if he does do it), then see where the hype is. But are you in any dynasty leagues? A league like Zealots by any chance? Ask the guy with the 1.1 if he'll take MJD for it. I can tell you right now that he will say no.

LOL all players improve at compound time, whatever that is. The guy in your league won’t trade his first pick is another good point. I don’t see any reason to continue this discussion.

 

[spec1alk]

I want to know how addai got on this list before MJD? Frankly Addai is a couple spots too high.

 

[cr8f]

Ronnie Brown-

"I don't think he's a great back," said ESPN football analyst and former running back Robert Smith. "I don't think he's a special back. He's not the kind of guy to do it consistently and he's not going to do it at a top level - at any point."

CBS commentator Phil Simms also took a shot at Brown, saying he didn't have the "physical qualities" of a great running back.

The Bush hype began during the college season and escalated during the heismann talk, to the Rose Bowl, and then got out of hand after that. It was pretty big at this time. The combine helped him, but he was already a top pick. The top pick in FF, even if the draft took place in January. No RB had more hype at this time than he did. As for AD being not even close to Bush's value, you may be right for now. I personally put them close in value, but admit, I'd trade the 1.01 for Bush today. I wouldn't add much, but I'd take Bush.MJD is going to be a special back, I just don't know that he'll be a long term workhorse. I certainly wouldn't trade AD for him.
