FBG Post-Draft Rookie Rankings and Features Discussion (1 Viewer)

Great as always. I notice that you have J Jenkins listed twice at CB--I assume one of those should be Jamell Fleming?

When do the IDP podcasts usually start?
Had planned on recording multiple episodes last night but got sniped by a last minute computer issue. Should be ready by early next week.Also, at least five staffers have now added IDP rookie rankings.
 
Care to unpack why you have Lindley as a 2nd round pick? I just don't see him getting much of a chance behind Philip Rivers for quite some time. I think I would rather take a shot on Weedon, who is pretty much guaranteed to see the field this season, than someone who probably will be riding the bench for quite some time.

I think I have Lindley a little high and he'll drop some in the next update. But I still like him as the QB4 in this group.The Lindley-Weeden debate for me is about upside. Weeden's ceiling is limited, I think, by age and surrounding cast in dynasty leagues. Even though he'll play right away, I don't see him as ever becoming more than a marginal QB2. That provides no relative advantage when you're matching up against a better team in the playoffs. Lindley, who's in Arizona not San Diego, has similar talent and will have the time to develop and (hopefully) work on some of the issues that are concerning in his footwork and pocket awareness. The depth chart isn't stacked against him and his surrounding cast could be very, very good. I wouldn't argue that he has an elite QB1 ceiling, but I think he can become a QBBC caliber player with the potential to have enough QB1 caliber games that he won't be a roster sink if and when he earns the job.

Thanks-definite talent there.Thanks for the podcasts too.
 
Thanks for all the great info Jene and everyone else here.

Do you think Upshaw's value will change now that he will be looked at for the Suggs role and has already been switched to DE? (Switched in MFL for those of us in their leagues)
