I don't know.Here's another one.This year you gave me Kevin Jones.
I know, I know...it's my team. But nobody pays me for my recommendations.
Is Jones this year's Barlow?
KJ was ranked top7 here. Where was he higher?FBG was actually lower on Kevin Jones than some other sites, so in reality they could say "I told you so"
The last DD update that I have shows him as #10 in both PPR and non-PPR formats.KJ was ranked top7 here. Where was he higher?FBG was actually lower on Kevin Jones than some other sites, so in reality they could say "I told you so"
I drafted August 27th. At that time, DD had Kevin Jones at RB7 in 0 pt per reception league.The last DD update that I have shows him as #10 in both PPR and non-PPR formats.KJ was ranked top7 here.

I believe that's based on a full years worth of production, not two games, but I may be wrongI drafted August 27th. At that time, DD had Kevin Jones at RB7 in 0 pt per reception league.
The Kool-Aid Man visited an awful lot of people regarding that guy. Everytime I looked at a web site, magazine, cheatsheet, or talked to anyone, it was like "OH YEEEEAAAAH" and Kevin Jones would come crashing through the wall disguised as a big pitcher full of ice and purple liquid.

So it would be better for FBG to just take the average rankings of all mags and use that as their rankings?Gotta take a stand somewhere. There's still a lot of football left. At this time last year Droughns wasn't even on most rosters.Kevin Jones owner here and I can say without hesitation that FBG had him ranked higher than most sites, mags, etc. Fact. I know the Guru had him around 4th but almost nobody else had him as high as FBG.
With Schlesenger (sp?) out and the next four weeks with a bye, TB, Baltimore and Carolina; the shark move would be to trade for him in the next few weeks.Draftsharks had him at #5, right behind my friend Clinton P. Guys, it's early. Game One was so-so. Game Two, abysmal. He was lousy early last season as well, and this is the meaty part of their schedule. He needs to get through the next month and the dividends should come. The FF Play-off schedule is pretty sweet too.
Bottom line: I'd let the season play itself out.
No, Jamal Lewis is this year's Barlow.
And if I may add, with Garcia potentially available at the same time. Who knows if that's an upgrade, but he can't be worse than yesterday.Maybe he is this year's Barlow, but perhaps he's just last year's Kevin Jones all over again.With Schlesenger (sp?) out and the next four weeks with a bye, TB, Baltimore and Carolina; the shark move would be to trade for him in the next few weeks.Draftsharks had him at #5, right behind my friend Clinton P.

Exactly---if this site could pick every stud, every week, Vegas would be out of business.Alot of us are hurting at one position or another. It is time to sack up and make that waiver wire pick to help your team.Here's a nice short list of everyone who has stunk so fa this year:
Daunte Culpepper
Jamal Lewis
Nate Burleson
Kevin Jones
Charles Rogers
Jason Witten
Reggie Wayne
Jake Plummer
Andre Johnson
and more and more I'm sure
It's two games people. Plenty more to go.
Take some accountability for the players YOU drafted. The chicken little mentality around here after only 120 player minutes is truly amazing. KJ will have a great year.

No! Stick your finger down your throat and cough those sleeping pills back up!

I love Jamal Lewis. He's a mediocre RB who had a 2000 yard season. I love it when someone ignores every single other season he's ever played and grabs him top-10, because it just means more talent falling to me.No, Jamal Lewis is this year's Barlow.
Aren't you the "no more Kool-Aid references" guy?Have a change of heart? Or could you not resist the chance to go all-out with the be-all-end-all Kool-Aid reference (which was very funny, by the way)?The Kool-Aid Man visited an awful lot of people regarding that guy.

I was just wondering the same thing.This year you gave me Kevin Jones.
I know, I know...it's my team. But nobody pays me for my recommendations.

God I hate these posts.It's like someone who bought a book to teach them to play blackjack getting upset because the book says to double down on a pair of aces, and they lose both bets one particular time.This year you gave me Kevin Jones.

Barlow was ranked top8 here last year. Arrington wasnt even ranked remotley close to that this year. Not the best comparisionThis years best candidates are Jamal or KJonesBefore you annoint Kevin Jones "Barlow", you'd better take a close look at Arrington, who was getting pimped pretty widely here during the offseason/preseason.
I don't see where Jones can carry Arrington's jock as far as failure is concerned.

Correctamundo !No, Jamal Lewis is this year's Barlow.McGahee will most definitely be this years Barlow
How about overracting to a guy that runs behind a bad O Line and who was vastly overrated because of a good half season with a coach that likes to throw in the red zone.Kevin Jones = stud.
don't overreact to 1 bad road game against a tough defense when the QB throws 5 INTs
we'll see what happens.Personally, I'm not going to panic. I've seen enough from KJ to believe he's the real deal, although his SOS is shaping up to be more difficult than I anticipated.How about overracting to a guy that runs behind a bad O Line and who was vastly overrated because of a good half season with a coach that likes to throw in the red zone.Kevin Jones = stud.

Prior to week 1, no site or mag (that I know of) was as high on Drew Bennet as FBG. He was ranked as WR9 and after week 1, they dropped him 7 spots to WR16.
To me, that shows they have a lack of conviction in their beliefs and that they erred big time.
