2010 Player Spotlight Series

One of Footballguys best assets is our message board community. The Shark Pool is, in our view, the best place on the internet to discuss, debate and analyze all things fantasy football. In what's become an annual tradition, the Player Spotlight series is a key part of the preseason efforts. As many of you know, we consider the Player Spotlight threads the permanent record for analyzing the fantasy prospects of the player in question. This year, we plan to publish more than 140 offensive spotlights covering the vast majority of expected skill position starters.

Each week we will post a list of players to be discussed. Those threads will remain open for the entire preseason, and should be a central point to discussion expectations for the player in question. Importantly, analysis done in the first week of posting will be part of the permanent record in two ways. 1) At the end of the week, we will tally the projections into a consensus. 2) We will select a number of pull quotes from forum contributors who make a compelling statement or observation. Both the projections and pull quotes will be part of a published article on the main website.

Thread Topic: Peyton Manning, QB, Indianapolis Colts

Player Page Link: Peyton Manning Player Page

Each article will include:

[*]Detailed viewpoint from a Footballguys staff member

[*]Highlighted member commentary from the message board threads

[*]FBG Projections

[*]Consensus Member Projections

The Rules

In order for this thread to provide maximum value, we ask that you follow a few simple guidelines:

[*]Focus commentary on the player (or players) in question, and your expectations for said player (or players)

[*]Back up your expectations in whatever manner you deem appropriate; avoid posts that simply say "I hate him" or "He's the best"

[*]Avoid redundancies or :goodposting: ... this should be about incremental analysis or debate

While not a requirement, we strongly encourage you to provide your own projections for the player (players):

Projections should include:

[*]For QBs: Attempts, Completions, Passing Yards, Passing TDs, Ints, Rush Attempts, Rush Yards, Rush TDs

[*]For RBs: Rushes, Rushing Yards, Rush TDs, Receptions, Receiving Yards, Receiving TDs

[*]For WRs & TEs: Receptions, Receiving Yards, Receiving TDs

Now let's get on with the conversation! We look forward to your contributions and let me offer a personal thanks in anticipation of the great debate and analysis.

 
If BB coached this team Peyton would have 5000 and 50 every year, the Colts would have 4 Superbowl rings by now and Peyton would be the uncontested GOAT.

 
One of the top 2 greatest regular season Qb's in NFL history between him and Dan Marino. He plays 16 games, manages the game like no other and plays big with under 2 mins in a game. His game shows cracks in the playoffs that can't be argued but fortunately for all fantasy owners, the money is already paid out in fantasy leagues before those games even happen.

4300 yards, 33 td's and 15 int's with 1 rushing td

Yes, it's true that Peyton will give you stellar stats. But I always hated having to plan to make a deal for a lesser QB or draft a good one, knowing what it cost to get Peyton, so I could compete in the FF playoffs. Taking Peyton at his ADP is a risk/reward. Not saying that he won't lead you to the championship. But the heartburn of relying on him when the division is wrapped up by week 13 is what I'd like to avoid.

I try to avoid him at his ADP, but obviously if he slips, I am all over him and then I try to snag a decent complementary QB in the later rounds.

Easy 4000 30 15As an irrelevant sidenote....Favre erased dan marino from the regular season record book and even comes complete with postseason meltdowns to cement his reg season dominance. There is no marino imo between favre and peyton.
 
If Garcon starts opposite Wayne I like PM for about 5 TDs more than if anyone else starts opposite Wayne. That being said, 37 TDs and 4200 yds.
