Of the guys who are listed on some others, but I can't have higher at this point:

LJ-- here was Jamal Anderson's 2000 season: 282 rushes, 1024 rush yds, 42 rec, 382 rec yds, 6 TD's. 11.0 FP/G. Both were coming back on bad teams. LJ's injury (foot) actually concerns me more than Anderson's knee would at his size and age. That's about his upside in my opinion.

Parker-- coming off the injury, he'll be 28, which puts him just on the wrong side of the age curve. Okay for a star back with no recent injury history, not as good for a solid back with a broken leg at the end of the season. 2 TD's. He is imminently replaceable at this point in his career. The question of course, is by whom.

McGahee-- a rush attempt compiler with a career 3.9 ypc, on an unsettled offense, that gets to play against the NFC E/AFC S this year instead of NFC W/AFC E. He had 2 games of 29+ attempts in his last 4 (and was the only back to do so), so I think he carries a little extra injury risk into the season. The combination of all those factors means he is borderline top 15 for me at this point.

any ideas where bush would be in a non PPR league?

Yes. Not on my team.

LJ (the PT side of me coming out, his days of top 10 are over)Just off the top of my head, no research done or anything. Haven't thought about this since last season

Sorry, not a forum troll. Not even sure what that means... guess that's a good thing that I don't know... means I have a life

Not really. The black dot smilie means it's a thread you want to keep up with. The old board software but a black dot next to threads you'd read and responded to (now it uses a white corner of the folder which isn't as good but it's what we have) This isn't about you or you having a life. Please don't make it out to be. Stick to football. TIA.J

As long as Maroney keeps the tool factor to a zero I'm fine. Should check his last couple responding posts to mine... kid needs a reality check in the worst wayAnyways, onward with the rankings!

bush not top 15 in ppr?PLus on the Jacobs

Jacobs attempts at catching a football are remarkably similar to watching King Kong taking swats at helicopters...eventually they get a few and New Yorkers are frightened by the sight of either event.Now, if you are making rankings for PPD (points per drop), then Jacobs is right up there. No way he sniffs the top 15 in PPR. Statistically impossible, in fact.

right on Q

Putting Jacobs on any list period is a precarious proposition, he is the third best option on a team loaded at RB I don’t even have Jacobs ranked in the Top 20 in a PPR let alone ahead of all those others. Bradshaw will more than likely finish ahead or at least even with Jacobs in Fantasy points.

The best list so far IMHO. I have Gore ranked as a top five if San Fran can get the O-Line together this year. Great Job. Agree with your comments on LJ and FWP. I also think your spot on with Brown just behind Lewis, will take a while for him to get back upto speed.
