LHUCKS' Top 10 Buy Low (1 Viewer)

6. Chris Chambers- Looks good. Could have / should have had a better game than he did the other day. He will have the best year of his career this year.
Definitely agree with you there.
 
What kind of league would be pushing panic buttons right now? Come on.
I feel sorta panicky about Priest Holmes... :unsure:
How could you not know what you were getting in to? That was the most talked about issue, on here especially.
I didn't believe it was actually going to happen. More importantly, i knew he would get some carries, but I didn't think he would look so much better than Holmes.
Stop worrying!Priest is Vermeil's BOY! There is no way Priest isn't going to get 20 carries per game. And there's now way Johnson is going to put up numbers like that at 10 carries per game again.

I really think you need some special testing.

Yea, I was having this discussion with a friend. It was about Vermeil's psyche.I don't think Holmes will play his way out of a job. His yards-per-carry will be around 4.3 or 4.4, pretty good on most teams. But Larry Johnson's yards per carry could very well be around 5.2 or 5.3.

Will Vermeil stick with Priest if/when this happens??? I hope so, I wish I was as confident as you.

Yeah, no way Larry Johnson has another big game like that. After all, went 7-104-2 in week 14 last year. He is obviously overdue for a few mediocre games.

I wouldn't say panicking yet but some things have surely caught their attention.
Like what? Who is going to "miss" the aformentioned targets and such? Who doesn't realize that Tennessee was AT Pitt? Tell me, who is going to give away Hines Ward after week one? I'd like to know.

Lamont Jordan was AT New England. AJ was IN Buffalo. That stuff gets by who exactly?
I don't know if I should even reply.Strange as it may be, not everyone thinks exactly as you. Some owners might think something is the beginning of a trend while others would call it a fluke. Some owners don't pay attention to stuff every second of the day. And other owners might be plain dumb. :bye:

 
For those of you who aren't fortunate to see all of the games, here's who I see as solid buy low candidates.

1. Titans Passing Game - McNair, Bennett, Calico, Troupe, Kinney

Let's not forget how good Pittsburgh's defense is at home. The Titans will have better passing weeks nearly every other week this season.

.
I'd sit on the Titans Passing game another week since they have Baltimore coming up in week 2. I think we'll really have some good buy low potential this time next week.

You forgot to mention that Johnson has set the record for consecutive 2 TD games with SIX GAMES in a row dating back all the way to Week 13 of last year.Johnson has 13 TDs in his last 7 games. YOWZERS!!

 
Pretty good list.  I'd add Michael Clayton in there somewhere.  Joey Galloway will NOT outscore him very often. 
Call me crazy, but I think this is the year Joey Galloway is resurrected and finishes top 15.All the pieces are there: Gruden offense, proven playmaker opposite side, he's finally 100% healthy, etc.

Not a popular pick, but talent has never been an issue with Joey.
Agreed. I think at the end of the year Joey & Claytons numbers may look just about the same.
I don't understand the ongoing love for Galloway. He always has a few big games, than either gets hurt or disappears for long stretches.He's only caught over 70 passes once in his now 11 year career, and that was EIGHT years ago. Check out the career numbers:

2. Lamont Jordan

At New England hasn't been a cakewalk traditionally for fantasy runningbacks and Lamont looks primed for a breakout season after his showing on Thursday. Don't be surprised if he finishes among the top 10 RBs this year.

3. Isaac Bruce

Don't give up the farm because Curtis' and McDonald's targets do concern me, but Bruce isn't going to fall off the face of the earth after putting up 1290 last year.

4. Mewelde Moore

The more I see of Bennett, the less I'm impressed.

5. Hines Ward

Pittsburgh will have to pass more than it did against Tennessee. Snag him if the value is there.

6. Mike Anderson

He's the best RB in Denver and torn rib cartilage is a minor injury.

7. Andre Johnson

Week 1 will be his worst week of the entire year.

8. Jermaine Wiggins

Was targeted a lot and had two TDs called back...if you need a TE and he's cheap, Wiggins wont disappoint.

9. Ahman Green

He'll be relied upon even more in '05 with Walker out and he's been hated on a fair amount in the preseason. If you can get him from a discouraged owner pull the trigger.

10. Frank Gore

Looked solid in limited action and Barlow was far from impressive. Could be huge for your second half.
This is a great post... says the Gore, Wiggins, Moore, Jordan Owner.
 
Pretty good list. I'd add Michael Clayton in there somewhere. Joey Galloway will NOT outscore him very often.
Don't agree that Galloway won't outscore Clayton often. Clayton thrived last year when Galloway was hurt. Who knows how the distribution will be now that he is back. Everyone forgets that Galloway is a very good wr but has been injured quite a bit the last few years but when he plays he's a good wr.

That's exactly right. If he produces when you start him, that's all that counts. Considering he's a WR#4 or #5 on most teams, he's a steal...he's on half of the teams listed in my sig.
 
3.  Isaac Bruce

Don't give up the farm because Curtis' and McDonald's targets do concern me, but Bruce isn't going to fall off the face of the earth after putting up 1290 last year.
Bruce had 61 yds and a TD week one. I dont see him as a buy low guy right now :confused:
I know his stats, but owners may be weary of the Curtis/McDonald targets. I think the game was an anomaly from a targets perspective.
Uh most owners doesn't even know what "targets" are.

good point, which makes Bruce interesting...he might be a guy that you can get from a pseudo/quasi shark.(Austin Powers)
 
I totally agree with Ahman. People are pushing the panic button on the Packers offense in the wake of the Detroit disaster. The fact is that for anyone who has followed the Packers in recent years, we know they always suck in domes. It doesn't matter if they are playing a below average team or not. They suck in domes. Favre is 5-9 in his career on the road against Detroit. And some of those Lions teams have been gawdawful. Ahman had a very healthy yds/carry for a tight game on the road. He simply wasn't used enough. I don't think Sherman makes that mistake again. If someone is willing to let Ahman go for a reasonable price, I'd jump on it.

So you think there's owners out there that drafted Andre Johnson probably within the top 5-6 rounds of their draft that will dump him after two bad weeks....hardly.  :no:
In many instances yes...definitely a guy to keep on your radar.
Maybe in the leagues you play in... :rolleyes:

:lmao: ...yeah, I have a hard time getting into competitive leagues. BTW, dump means trade not drop... in case that was somebody's interpretation.

Edited for accuracy :P Go show this week in the survivor series. :thumbup:

 
Potentially another "buy low" candidate. 1st trade in my league went down...Jamal Lewis for Jevin Jones & Leftwich.Looks like some owners are panicking about Lewis' performance against the...Colts D????Whatever.Jamal should get better with more reps & clearing out a half season of rust. D is still solid, and there's now the option of throwing the ball with Anthony Wright. Lewis could see less 8 man fronts. He's somebody I'd start to inquire about.

3) The O-Line didn't have any key losses that I'm aware of so I'm not sure what you're basing your third point on. :confused:
How about Matt Birk, their Pro Bowl center! I read where Mount McKennie (FBG NewsBlogger) could be out this weekend too. I think those are fairly "key" losses.
 
Houston is just such a dreadful situation I don't see myself even wanting to 'buy low' on any of them. Andre is a beast, but with constant double teams and probably a third man keeping an eye on him and Carr rolling out all the time, and coach punting on 4th down, down 2 scores with a few minutes left in the game what's really the point?

I think next week when Dom Davis gets shut down by Pittsburgh, that would be two lousy weeks in a row for a #1 pick and probably a few 0-2 starts by some teams out there. Go For DD next week!

A guy that you may want to try to buy low in a few weeks is Kevin Jones. Detroit's early schedule is brutal. 1-GB2-@CHI3-BYE4-@TB5-BALT6-CARI can't imagine him looking real good after the first 6 weeks. Just something you might want to look at in a few weeks.Willie

 
Then there are us guys who had Walker and Johnson as WR1 and WR2...thinking to ourselves.....hang in there...it can only get better.

 
4. Domanick Davis, Andre Johnson, David Carr- Buffalo has an outstanding D and were at home. Houston plays Jax this week, another solid D. I am making some solid trade offers for Davis and Johnson right after another sub performance vs. Jax. They're going on a bye week 3............you will see some owners not winning, their players are going on bye and aren't producing. They could bite and you will see these players putting up starting fantasy points during mid season.
Actually Houston is facing Pit this week, which actually is even worse. I agree that Davis will be the ultimate buy low candidate this week, after another rough outing vs. a lights out D. He is the player i'm targeting next week, as I know another 30 yd. rushing performance will frustrate his owner enough to deal him. :yes: Other guys I would throw in there: Joey Galloway/Mike Anderson

Very suprised :eek: when looking at this list and not seeing CPEP at #1.All of the addition by subtraction guys ought to be all over him :D

Whats wrong with Kevin Jones??? I don't see him that unequal to Jamal Lewis... in fact I would rather have Jones.

Interesting taking a look back at this list. I really like the Titans pick, they seem to be just getting comfortable with Chow's offensive scheme and have some tasty matchups coming up. McNair could end up being one of the absolute steals of the draft.

Calico has disappointed. Ahman, Bruce and AJ are even better buy low candidates now.
I certainly hope you're right with Ahman, I need him to serve as a legitimate RB #2. I don't know though, he didn't look good all year, then got hurt, then Najeh puts up good stats against the Saints. Ahman probably would have too, but they don't play the Saints again.

I agree on Bruce once he returns. What's his status anyway?

AJ in a redraft? I just don't see him putting up top stats. In a dynasty, he'll still be too expensive.

Good calls overall, I'm just saying if you acquired all of these, you'd be hurting on some.

AJ will probably not be a stud, but I've seen him dropped in some shallow leagues...he's worth a roster spot for at least a few more games.Ahman is going to bounce back...situations have a way of evening themselves out in the NFL. Green Bay's line will get better as some of those guys now know they will be fighting to keep their jobs/livelihoods. Green may not put up monster numbers but I think he can bounce back to #2 status...hell Davenport just got 2 TDs and 60 total yards in a partial game. ;)

He'll be relied upon even more in '05 with Walker out and he's been hated on a fair amount in the preseason.  If you can get him from a discouraged owner pull the trigger.

10.  Frank Gore

Looked solid in limited action and Barlow was far from impressive.  Could be huge for your second half.
You win some: McNair, Troupe, Jordan, MooreYou lose some: Ahman, Calico, AJ, Bruce
Bruce got hurt-you can't hold that against him; the guy was looking good for those couple of weeks.
Exactly, as did Ahman.
Green has missed one game due to injury. He has done nothing this season.
Well Davenport just had a decent fantasy outing and Green > Davenport. So you can sell low, Ill buy low.
You comparision of Green's season so far to Bruce's was off. Deal with it.I agree that Green can bounce back. At times he has ran strong this year and has managed to find the small holes the o-line has opened for him. He ran strong in the first half of the Lions game only to see Sherman and Rossley go away from the run in the second half while the game was only 7-3.

From a fantasy standpoint, Green has done nothing this year but he has looked good when he has been given the ball for the most part.

However, I take back what I wrote about Bruce and Green. The only thing Bruce has done this year is score one TD. Yes, that is one more than Green but Bruce's numbers were not all that great.

Week 1 3-61 TD

Week 2 5-64

Week 3 1-11

For those of you who aren't fortunate to see all of the games, here's who I see as solid buy low candidates.

1.  Titans Passing Game - McNair, Bennett, Calico, Troupe, Kinney

Let's not forget how good Pittsburgh's defense is at home.  The Titans will have better passing weeks nearly every other week this season.

2.  Lamont Jordan

At New England hasn't been a cakewalk traditionally for fantasy runningbacks and Lamont looks primed for a breakout season after his showing on Thursday.  Don't be surprised if he finishes among the top 10 RBs this year.

3.  Isaac Bruce

Don't give up the farm because Curtis' and McDonald's targets do concern me, but Bruce isn't going to fall off the face of the earth after putting up 1290 last year.

4.  Mewelde Moore

The more I see of Bennett, the less I'm impressed. 

5. Hines Ward

Pittsburgh will have to pass more than it did against Tennessee.  Snag him if the value is there.

6.  Mike Anderson

He's the best RB in Denver and torn rib cartilage is a minor injury.

7.  Andre Johnson

Week 1 will be his worst week of the entire year.

8.  Jermaine Wiggins

Was targeted a lot and had two TDs called back...if you need a TE and he's cheap, Wiggins wont disappoint.

9.  Ahman Green

He'll be relied upon even more in '05 with Walker out and he's been hated on a fair amount in the preseason.  If you can get him from a discouraged owner pull the trigger.

I wouldn't hold out hope that Green will be better due to the fact that Davenport had a good game against NO. If GB can play NO each week they will be ok but unfortunately they don't. Green isn't a bad running back it's just that they are behind in every game and they are forced to throw. Not to mention that their line is awful. If you buy Green I just wouldn't expect much maybe 750 yards (68 yards a game) and 5 td's.

I'm interested to see your updated list of Buy Low candidates LHUCKS.Mine include:Hasselbeck (been playing great but can work the 2 starting WRs out angle)Tony GonzTrent Green

Hasselbeck (been playing great but can work the 2 starting WRs out angle)

Tony Gonz

Trent Green
Hasselbeck is a good buy low candidate because of his playoff schedule, but if you need big weeks from him right away he's a risky play.Gonzo and Green have nowhere to go but up, so I agree with you there.

I'll try to put a list together sometime today.

Bennett is probably a good bet to break-out from that passing game as defenses adjust to the overuse of TEs. Too bad we didn't spot him specifically before he grabbed 5-99-1 this past week.BTW I took McNair in round 8 of a start 2QB league, partly due to your advocacy of him, LHUCKS. Steal of the draft so far :thumbup:
