In a 2 qb league sure. In anything else you are doomed. He won't score enough above qbs that you can get much later to justify going pick 1. But the guys available at the top of the draft will score a ton more than guys you get a few rounds later, especially at rb.
Thinking Colston, Sproles, Graham. Just the Brees and Payton connection coming back those three should be considered high redraft picks.
Do we know when that will be?
From the sound of everything it sounds like he'll be ready for TC. That's what he and Shanahan were saying during the OTA press conference this week. How true that is, no idea. But I think I'd be more surprised at this point if he isn't ready for the season.
I can't find it in me to take the chance on Garcon. He will be 27 in august and has had ample opportunity to be a solid player multiple times but always seems to fall short of expectations.MattFancy said:
No disagreement with this line of thought really. I should clarify that I use ADP to help me gauge how others are valuing guys, and then I know how/when to target the players I like (which are those I feel are likely to get me the best return for where I can draft them). If one of these types that I target gets nabbed before I felt it made sense for my team, I move on to another option. Again, I rarely have must-haves, and I typically don't get heartbroken if Player X, whom I like a good deal, goes a round or two before I was considering him.Borden said:
How could I forget. Love LOve LOVe LOVE Shorts this year. Hopefully he stays under the radar. I can guarantee that the owners like me who picked him up off the WW last year will be targeting him as their WR2.
You win.Shorts was inserted into the starting lineup in Week 7 and played nine games afterwards (missing two). In those nine games he averaged 16.9 ppg. Which would have been good for WR9 on a full-season ppg basis. And he did it with dreck at QB, no running game, and in his first season as a starter. He also looked uncoverable.But branding wins again, and his ADP is WR31.
Very much think Shorts will be top 3 round target in my 3 keeper PPR league. Guy has shown to be a potential stud, and other than MJD he'll be the only one to throw too with Blackmon out for the first 4 weeks. Very good chance to end up a top 10 WR.
WR9. Yup that jives with my impressions. Can't wait to scoop him up in my leagues. What's most exciting about him is he goes beyond the box score and really passes the eyeball test. Every time you watch this kid the on field he just looks like a playmaker. I'm going to make sure I end up with him unlike Wayne who I was pimping big time on this board last year and ended up missing out on in my leagues.
Yep. I think he will be #1 overall QB.
I feel this way every year , but it never happens.
funny thing though, I can't find a buyer for Brees. At least not at a reasonable price (my opinion). Best offer I've received is a good LB and DT.
I grabbed him at the 1.08 (2nd WR off the board) and he certainly has the potential. However, for this year I actually think he'll be the 4th best receiver in Minnesota behind Jennings, Rudolph and Wright. With ADP leading the way and Patterson's ADP, I'll be staying away this year.
He will be the 3rd best receiver behind Jennings and Rudolph If you ask me. He will also see a decent amount of carries as well. I'm thinking about 30 or so. He will make up for some of the lost receiving stats with rushing IMO. He's going to prove far too explosive for Minn not to get him the ball. Having Peterson in the stable will ensure opportunities in space. In redraft, you will likely be able to get him as a WR5. At that price, I'm buying Patterson every time.
Maybe, and as your 5th I could see it.
I'd like to see him win the WR2 job over Simpson before taking him this high. I think he'll cut his teeth as a returner/gimmick option. Not sure there will be enough targets in this run heavy offense to give him legitimate value. What are the comparables at 48th WR?
You can check ADP in the mock draft forum, but Hopkins, Michael Floyd, givens, and E Sanders are a few i would prefer in redraft.
That doesn't surprise me. I have Brees and Kaepernick on one team and no one wants to talk about Brees. But since the draft I've received an offer from almost every team in the league for Kaepernick and some have made 2 or 3.
T.Y. Hilton will be better from the slot. Don't get your hopes up too high for DHB, IMO.
If we account for adp, I will take Witten or Gonzo.
I don't think that's true at all Drew Brees is the safest pick in the draft period I expect him to throw for 5000 yds 40tds he will blow away the rest of the Qb field
Charles is a guy thats on my do not draft list. I just have never been a fan. McCoy is going to have an awesome year in the offense he is. AP is the only guy I would take over McCoy.
