I'm not sure there is a Slaton. He wasn't a nobody who came out of nowhere. Slaton had 1700+ rushing in 2006 and managed to break 1k in '07 while playing through injuries. He also topped 350 receiving both years. He was actually a serious Heisman contender going into his last season. You look at guys like James Davis and Cedric Peerman who played in the same conference and they didn't come close to matching Slaton's production. As high as some guys around here are on Peerman, he never even had 1000 yards of total offense in a season. Rashad Jennings and Gartrell Johnson also didn't produce like Slaton even though they were in lesser conferences. Maybe one of the backs taken late will turn out to be the next Terrell Davis, but it's not really a good draft strategy to start grabbing long-shots in the first round.I voted other. The fact it's non PPR there are some 2008 Statons out there to be had at RB! For Stratigec reasons I will not name them here!
This isn't a PPR. Andre Brown could be one in the NYG mix. If Jacobs gets hurt he could become the man. Gartrell could too if LT gets hurt. Injury gave Slaton an opportunity.I voted other.
