I say Peyton Manning matters way more than you think.
if this was redraft I would take colston every day of the week over CJ. Athletic ability or no Calvin has a boat anchor of a team while Colst is a key cog in the best offense in the NFL
Spider,Let me just list a few guys AHEAD of him at this point in my league:
Way to lack perspective.
So you would vote for CJ if he were on this list? C'mon man....!!! Guess in dynasty he could take Ocho's place...but in redraft (for this year) he doesn't belong. You disagree??
Megatron helped me win my league title last year, so I do have love for him. But I will respectfully disagree with him being the number one choice here..not even close in my opinion. Detroit will still be bad in 3,4,5 years...and Megatron has been more injury prone than some of the other guys on the list. I think Fitz in a little overrated...but to me...a guy like AJ would be an easy choice over Calvin Johnson.
AJ has never had back to back 1000 yard seasons..
That stat will be history after this year. 1500+ last year....700 already this year.AJ has never had back to back 1000 yard seasons..
Fitz is most certainly not overrated. He has 3 career 1400 yard seasons with 10+ TDs. Andre Johnson has only topped 1150 yards once, and he's never topped 10 TDs. Larry Fitzgerald's THIRD BEST season (100/1409/10) is almost as good as Andre Johnson's best season (115/1575/8). Also, Andre's awesome and he's one of the few WRs in the league possessing of a "Beast Mode", but the only guys in the league today who have dominated quality competition as thoroughly as Fitzgerald did last postseason are Steve Smith South and Randy Moss. Fitzgerald *AVERAGED* 7.5/137/1.75 in the playoffs last season (would pro-rate to 120/2184/28 over a full season). Fitzgerald clearly demonstrated why he's the best WR in the entire NFL.Oh, by the way... he's only 26 years old. Which is insane. The kid had three 1400 yard seasons before his 26th birthday.
Spoken like a Fitz dynasty owner. Not that I don't think Fitz is a stud...but behind most of these guys in fantasy points this year..and gonna lose his Warner any year now.
Do you think I'm high on Fitzgerald because I own him, or do you think I own him because I'm high on him? I didn't draft Fitz- I traded Antonio Gates, Javon Walker, and a rookie 1st rounder to get him back when Walker was still with Denver. That's a king's ransom, and I considered it a bargain for a 25 year old who already had a pair of 1400 yard seasons. And now he's a 26 year old with a trio of 1400 yard seasons. That's more than Randy Moss had at his age. That's more than Jerry Rice had at his age.Talent trumps all, and since people have short memories, after the playoffs last year the question wasn't whether Fitzgerald was the best WR in the NFL (it was widely accepted that he was), it was whether he was the best PLAYER in the NFL. I'm not going to bury him just because he's ONLY on pace for 1150/11 so far this season.Even if Warner goes down... so what? Warner only played 10 games in 2004, and Fitz still had 1400+/10+. Warner only played 11 games in 2007 and Fitz still had 1400+/10+. In '04, he averaged 5.8 grabs for 86.3 yards and .83 TDs in games started by Josh Freaking McCown- that's 93/1380/13 over a full season. With Josh McCown. He was on pace for 109/1433/3 receiving in 2007 in games started by Matt Leinart (I think it's safe to say that the TD number there is a fluke). With Boldin, without Boldin, with Warner, without Warner- all Fitz has done his entire career is produce at an elite level, regardless of any surrounding circumstances. Which is what real studs do.Like I said, he's only 26, and he's already the second most proven WR in the entire NFL. Larry Fitzgerald (age 26) and Randy Moss (age 32) are the only receivers in the league with more than 2 1400+ yard seasons. Larry Fitzgerald (age 26), Randy Moss (age 32), Hines Ward (age 33), and Terrell Owens (age 35) are the only guys in the league with more than two 10+ TD seasons. Reggie Wayne can't claim that. Steve Smith can't claim that. Torry Holt can't claim that. Ochocinco can't claim that. Donald Driver, Derrick Mason, Brandon Marshall, T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Andre Johnson... none of them can make that claim. Fitzgerald already has more 200 fantasy point campaigns in his career (3) than either Torry Holt (2) or Isaac Bruce (2). He has as many 200 fantasy point campaigns as Reggie Wayne (1), Andre Johnson (1), and Chad Ochocinco (1) COMBINED. If anything, Larry Fitzgerald isn't overrated, he's UNDERRATED. Basically, the only WRs in the last 20-30 years who have been this good and this proven this young have been Randy Moss and Jerry Rice.There are no circumstances under which I would bet against Fitzgerald. If you asked me "who is going to be the top receiver over the next _________", no matter what the blank is, I'm betting on Fitzgerald. He's the best receiver in the NFL.
Does losing his QB make him less of a player? Less "fantasy points"? Is that an argument? What's your question: Top WR, Top redraft fantasy WR, or top dynasty fantasy WR? Because I didn't see 'fantasy' anywhere in your original post.
situation. I'm saying, "who's getting it done right now...and who is most likely to get it done in the future". 
Moss is the second best WR on his team
That's a baloney sandwich.
from a fantasy standpoint he is, Welker is outscoring him in my league and I would image in every league. Welker definitely was ahead of him all of last season as well.
If he was ...we would not be having this discussion!
You mean when he is actually being a man and not getting hurt all the time, he is a wuss and has proved nuthing to me except he cant play through injuries!And what is your proof that Colston would be just average and CJ would be unstoppable except just your king like knowledge?
Again whats your proof, Colston has had very few drops in his career and has always played at a high level since his rookie year!I might be mistaken, but does he not have the record for most catches for any wr in history after his first 2 years in the league?....if thats the case your right Colston is well behind the WR's in this poll.
Thats why Welker has more catches then Moss, and Welker missed a couple games, lol!That means that Brady like Welker more, not even up for debate, more targets in less weeks, ummmmmmMost targets = Favorite WR for QB!
Hey..I like Colston...just saying.How many times has Colston been injured?
I said that JuSt CuZ his his username is Baloney Sandwich. It seemed fitting. And I don't care what the numbers say right now. Moss is the best WR in New England, and it's not close.
Rookie year missed only 2 games with the dreaded high ankle sprain, and last year missed 5 games with a torn tendon in his thumb!Not as injury prone as people make him out to be!Calvin wont even try to play if hes hurt!I own both in leagues so I am a fan of both so just talkin what I belive to be fact, (Not to mention bot the Saints and the Leos r my fav teams and I follow both closely)
Stats dont lie, so if its not close u just lost all credibility in this discussion!I wish I could start Moss on my team and know he will outperform Welker cuz u say so, to bad Brady dont agree with you this year!
