I just think the upside here is off the charts. Id rather take the risk on him then draft a timeshare back. If you had Mike williams would you trade him for a spiller or a ryan mathews in ppr leauge? To me that what it comes down to with Little. Only wr after JJ and AJ that can be a legitimate 1 wr.

Kind of easy to say that after the fact that Williams has logged 65 catches for 950+ yards and 11 TDs while those two RBs have struggled with injury/opportunity. I like Little's upside too, but he's being drafted about 10-15 spots higher than Williams was at this time last year. People are jumping the gun a bit.

I can't wait to hear your true opinion after your rookie drafts.Little was also drafted 2 rounds ahead of m.Williams.

 

[Khalua83]

Thats my point....do you want to run the risk of missing the boat for a timeshare guy? The reason Mike Will wasn't drafted higher is because people thought Regis Benn would be the guy or at least take some targets away. Unlike the Bucs last year Cleveland only drafted one WR. Plus when the Coach owner say right off the bat he is probably the 1 wideout that says alot to me. Williams ADP started rising last fall when the buc coaches said the same thing. To be great in fantasy football you gotta beat the curve, not jump on after the fact.

I also don't count out Regus Benn from continuing to develop past Mike Williams.

This actually did a big thing for me in getting behind Little. I originally was with EBF and thought people were crazy predraft saying he was a first round rookie pick. After being selected in the 2nd round of the NFL draft to a team with no true #1, I'm now with the group in saying he belongs up top with some of the top guys in the class.

 

[bicycle_seat_sniffer]

went at 1.06 in my draft.

went at 1.06 in my draft.

Looks like everyone is trying to act down on him in hopes he will drop.I have a feeling in good leagues he'll be gone by 1.07 at the latest.

 

[Khalua83]

i plan on takin him 1.5 over leshoure williams and thomas... committee backs dont hold as much value as potential 1 wr

SPiller IMO hasnt been given a chance, could of said the same thing about Ray Rice after his rookie year.1 season a career does not make

 

[cvnpoka]

oh, i wouldnt be surprised if spiller becomes a viable option very soon. he was the 9th pick so theres a good chance he is talented. but he couldnt beat out lynch and fjax and was underwhelming in spot duty. i dont remember rice's rookie campaign to compare the nuances.

According to Tampa Bay Buccaneers GM Mark Dominik, Arrelious Benn is just about ready to take the field again just four months after a surgery to repair a torn ACL. If true, this is a heck of a recovery. Benn wouldn’t be the first to make it back from such an injury, remember last year Patriots WR Wes Welker made a similar surprisingly speedy recovery. Benn reportedly has similar work ethic.

 

[Steed]

Benn also has a lengthy injury history that Welker never had.

then who are you top 4?

 

[Lrbutler]

What is everyone thoughts of that Jordan kid that we took in the 4th round.....is he a TE or WR for this team...I think he will be a wr...man ran a 4.59 40 time.

 

[daveR]

What is everyone thoughts of that Jordan kid that we took in the 4th round.....is he a TE or WR for this team...I think he will be a wr...man ran a 4.59 40 time.

Probably the wrong thread for that question.It seems to me that Jordan will remain a TE with the hopes he turns out to be another Gates.

 

[Khalua83]

Top 4..... AJ, Ingram, Julio, Little.... But Baldwin is going ahead of Little in my leauge...After that I see no true 1 wr. If I had to take a rb, id take my chances with Leshoure over anyone else though, I think Mia will bring in sprolls or reggie bush

 

[MDSkinner]

In my rookie PPR draft which is still underway, Little went #4 behind Green, Jones and Ingram. I am not sure that this will be standard but I thought it was worth mentioning.

I thought Regis is still doing that morning show at the moment? This is his last year there, true, so he may be competing for the starting WR job in Tampa in 2012, as unlikely as it seems on the surface.

That is based on what?

I like Little's upside too, but he's being drafted about 10-15 spots higher than Williams was at this time last year. People are jumping the gun a bit.

Ill tell ya what. I went back and watched all of Mike Wiliams targets last year,I honestly was not impressed at all. If you consider the amount of targets he got his numbers were not as impressive as you think. For a rookie,yes a fantastic year, but he had a lot of targets and it looks like to me Benn has a much higher ceiling. Seemed like he was targeted more because there was no one else to throw too rather than because of him being a stud.He really doesnt look that imposing of a presence out there. I dont know thats just my opinion, but, it seems like both Benn and Little have much more potential to be studs than Williams.

 

[nlgb1]

i've seen the highlights too. the kid has some talent for sure. but putting him in at 1.04 is off for me. first off, he's a bonehead. we all scream and avoid the hothead ###h0le vet WRs out there, but because of mike williams last season we're gonna ignore it with this guy? second, someone else said it -- colt mccoy is his qb. comparing mccoy to garcia is a joke. garcia was a gamer, super darn gritty, played hurt and did whatever it took to position his team to win. not only is mccoy a wuss, i don't even think he's as athletic as garcia. plain and simple, he's a well below average NFL QB. i probably won't draft baldwin ahead of little, but there are a few WRs others than jones and green who i think are more worthy, and there are several RBs i'd much rather have. even without this hype train thread, i think little will get snagged earleir than he should, and i'm not going to grab him earlier than he belongs just to beat the hype-induced overdrafting.

im still waiting for someone to tell me why he is a bonehead. guy took cash to play football, just like everyone else thats half decent in the game today. he punted the football once after he scored a td, dumb move. problems with the law? nope. effort problems? no, he plays harder than any college player ive ever seen. check out the vid of him blocking off the ball against maryland if u want evidence of that. dumb? nope, actually very well spoken, watch a few interviews. bottom line is this guy puts his heart and soul into the game. its blatantly obvious... just look at the shape he was in at the combine after a year layoff... top bench at combine for wrs, 4.53 for a 6'2" wr and 230 lbs (are you kidding me). the character concerns with this dude are way off base, and people are way too quick to use that label on guys. if he plays his senior year, hes a top 20 draft pick and competing with jones and green in fantasy drafts.oh and hes only played WR for 2 seasonsdont even get me going on ingram... small 2 down back with no speed playing in a passing offense with 2 other proven backs to compete with. but ill save that argument for another day.

I'm one of the biggest Greg Little fans on the board, but I think the character concerns are justified; though they are maybe being blown out of proportion a bit.The first obvious thing is that he was suspended his Senior year for attending an agent party. Assuming he is a pretty smart guy, he should have known better and realized that he shouldn't of gone. Little went to say in an interview “I know what I was doing was wrong”; if that was the case, then how do we know for certain that he won't do something again in the future that he knows is wrong? Obviously the same can be said for anybody really, but this past evidence suggests that the tendency for Little to engage in detrimental behavior is likely to be higher than others. And this is corroborated by the fact that he kicked the football after scoring a TD, and also by when Little taunted an injured player (which you failed to mention when you spoke of his blocking in the Maryland game, which was how the player got injured). Having said all that, I'd personallu have no problem drafting Little in the early first round at all. His combination of size/speed/strength/talent is impressive; and he's one of the few WR's in this draft who obviously have the potential to be a WR1; making him easily worth the risk imo.

Wait, he taunted an injured player? Let me get this straight.....a young guy in college: a) attended an agent party, b) taunted another player?Call the police!!

[Ghost of Bill Walsh]

In my dynasty rookie draft in the first round I have picks,2,3,5 & 6. He won't go #1 I'm sure and I'll have between Ingram,AJ & Jones with the 2 & 3 picks. The guy who picks at 4 needs RB help so I doubt he'll take Little there, so that'll leave him for me with the 5 or 6 pick. I need WR help for my team and of the WR's available I feel he'll have the best shot at becoming a good production receiver. I too don't feel he'll go past 7 in a lot of rookie drafts so I'll be pleased to get him with one of my four 1st round picks.

This is going to be like all those idiots (like myself) who took McCluster over Mike Williams last year. Baldwin is the guy to grab first, not Little.

Actually, taking Baldwin over Litle would be like taking Mccluster over Williams. Your taking a Chiefs WR who went between picks 25-40 over a talented guy who was picked later than he should have because of off field issues.Plus, i wouldnt give up on Mccluster yet, you knew when you drafted him he wasnt going to do much his rookie season.

[KeeferMan]

Got infatuated with Little's game early in the offseason and monitored him closely. Just loved his aggressiveness and passion for the game, not to mention his skills.

Had 1.09 and 1.10 picks. All along planned to "reach" for him at 1.09 way back when and watched as he slowly climbed into my pick range and then, after the way the draft fell, possibly beyond.

Checked out everyone's roster and saw that the guy with 1.07 had tons of young receivers, while Little wasn't the kind of guy the owner of 1.04 and 1.06 would like. The guy with 1.08 though needed receivers BAD and he and I think alike so I knew I was in trouble.

Tried to trade up with everyone holding picks 1.05, 1.07, and 1.08 and was rebuffed.

Once he was off the board I tried to trade back for picks as I wasn't that high on anyone but again no dice. Even offered the guy that drafted him 1.09 and 1.10 in desperation (kinda glad he shot me down)!

After some thought, ended up grabbing Baldwin at 1.09 and kind of excited about the pick. At 1.10 grabbed Delone Carter. I like his game. The big knock on him is that he can't catch but I think it's more that he wasn't asked to at Syracuse because I heard from scouts and media he caught well in workouts. Here's hoping Donald Brown continues to suck!

Anyway, that's my Greg Little story

Tier 1 AJ GreenJonesIngram I don't think an explanation is needed for the top tier. Tier 2Ryan WilliamsMikel LeShoureTier 3Jonathan BaldwinRandall CobbGreg LittleDaniel ThomasEven if you want to mention situation as a reason to take Little I don't see it. He has no other receivers to take pressure off of him since the other wideouts on Cleveland are not anything to gush about. He may see more targets but that doesn't always translate to receptions. I see the opposing teams #1 defender shadowing him throughout the game if necessary. Even AJ Green went to a bad situation but his talent is far and above the others on this list. At least he has Jerome Simpson and Jermaine Gresham compared to Massaquoi for (however it's spelled) for Cleveland. Off the field issues are a concern as well. Don't get me wrong, I see potential in Little but I have more questions than answers. I don't value situation much as you can tell with the ranking of Daniel Thomas.

I can respect what your saying there...I guess at this point little at 1.4 is a reach, but I also feel that just about anyone is a reach for this year. it just seems its opinion at this point. It conceivable that any of those guys could have better careers than little(although im not sure about cobb fantasywise considering at this point hes stuck well behind Finley and Jennings in the passing game). I just feel like I dont buy the off the field stuff and I think little has the highest ceiling. But, I also consider top fantasy WRs more valuable than top RBs so I guess to each his own. Id Rather take a swing for the fences with Little than have to deal with the RBBC Williams and Leshoure are currently dealing with.

Fair enough.

The hype is getting out of control. Top 10 rookie pick? Yes. Top 5? Hell no.

lol who are your top 4 and 5 then...id love to hear them and an explanation as to why they are clearly better options than little in those spots.

Tier 1 AJ GreenJonesIngram I don't think an explanation is needed for the top tier. Tier 2Ryan WilliamsMikel LeShoureTier 3Jonathan BaldwinRandall CobbGreg LittleDaniel ThomasEven if you want to mention situation as a reason to take Little I don't see it. He has no other receivers to take pressure off of him since the other wideouts on Cleveland are not anything to gush about. He may see more targets but that doesn't always translate to receptions. I see the opposing teams #1 defender shadowing him throughout the game if necessary. Even AJ Green went to a bad situation but his talent is far and above the others on this list. At least he has Jerome Simpson and Jermaine Gresham compared to Massaquoi for (however it's spelled) for Cleveland. Off the field issues are a concern as well. Don't get me wrong, I see potential in Little but I have more questions than answers. I don't value situation much as you can tell with the ranking of Daniel Thomas.

lol randall cobb eh? im a packer diehard and even i know hes not a fantasy option. this is a prime example of stubborness. not a great way to win in fantasy football

Wait. Explain to me how little's situation is different from cobbs. Qb? Weapons in the offense? Will little command double coverage if he's so good? How can teams roll coverage towards towards Cobb with Finley and Jennings there? Keep valuing situation over talent.

im not valuing situation over talent. i actually had little higher on my board than jones a year ago. my point is everyone is finally coming around on little and you refuse to budge because you didnt think for yourself a season ago. and cobb is currently a 5th string WR until GB lets jones go and he beats out either nelson or driver.

Driver? I won't comment on that. But because I have Cobb or Baldwin higher than Little means I don't like him as a player? Incorrect.

if you think a rookie is going to come in and just be handed Driver's position then u have a whole lot to learn

Did I say he is just to be handed Drivers position? Reading comprehension is important.

well then ill let you explain your scoffing at my mention of driver

 

[Steed]

I just nabbed him in the 6th round of a start-up and I was already deep at wr with Percy, Calvin, and Tampa mike on board. I probably reached but the next guys to go where jacoby ford, mike Thomas, and Johnny Knox. I like my chances.

 

[eaglesfan7]

I liked the pick Steed and was hoping for him around there as well. Sniped me!
