I agree with this guy.Other: Laurent Robinson
I look forward to seeing how well James Jones does with A. Rodgers at QB next year
pick.
who would vote for anyone else if CJ2 was in this poll... his point is... after CJ2, the other WRs are some what of a coin flip.
I look forward to you actually seeing Jones play...I look forward to seeing how well James Jones does with A. Rodgers at QB next year
Warpig clearly subscribes to the Minimal WR theory.Ummmm...I'll vote:MeachemBoweAnthony GonzalezMike WalkerJason HillSince they are all on my roster!
(I should talk...I took 3 of these guys in my dynasty rookie draft this year, too...I feel shame. )
If he was getting decent passes in the first two preseason games, he might be a big story. I have seem him separate deep twice for what should have been easy touchdowns, and a third time he was open in the endzone only to have the ball thrown out of bounds. So, Higgins is definitely showing off his jets. He went for 50 yards on a throw from Culpepper against AZ. He is returning punts and kicks. I read they want him to emerge at their #3. I think he's having a solid camp without much fanfare.
I agree with this, the kid even has value in 2007 redraft leaguesJacoby Jones is going to be a stud! Watch out!
That was the intent of the poll... to confirm that there is no consensus with this year's WR class (after Johnson obvisouly)... and to try and figure out the reasoning behind the respective choices...Interesting to see how even it is, with several 3rd-round NFLers hanging with (and sometimes outpacing) the 1st rounders...
I took over a team in DESPERATE NEED OF WR'S. The #1 WR was Nate Burleson! :XWarpig clearly subscribes to the Minimal WR theory.Ummmm...I'll vote:MeachemBoweAnthony GonzalezMike WalkerJason HillSince they are all on my roster!But to answer your question...for some reason Bowe jumps into my head. No particular reason.

Jarrett is rumored to start, and is picking up a role that had 815/4 last year. The CAR offense is better so IMO he has a great chance at hitting close to those numbers. Possibly a slight notch down in yardage and a slight notch up in TDs.I think he's the safest pick and in dynasty has just as high upside as all of them too. Further, he can be had later. He is thepick.
Jarrett is the guy I've been higest on (next to CJ2) for months now. I can't understand the lack of attention he is getting fromthe fantasy community. He has the best chance to start this season of anyone on this listHe has S. Smith across the field which will mean single coverage all day every day.He's 6'4 220lbs and scored double digit TD's in every year at USC.
Here are my WRs:- carried over from last year - Fitzgerald, Larry ARIWarpig said:
Holmes, Santonio PIT Berrian, Bernard CHI Johnson, Bryant ARI 
Williamson, Troy MIN Bryant, Antonio FA - just drafted -Johnson, Calvin DET Bowe, Dwayne KCC needless to say I should be good for a few years
So you have Reggie Williams, Vincent Jackson and Jerry Porter ranked higher than Reggie Wayne, Anquan Boldin and Calvin Johnson?
I don't find this interesting as much as annoying. Everyone wants to make a gutsy pick so that if they're right they can come back and say "I told you so." Yet very few people truly believe what they say or would bet money on it. I find that this type of behavior brings down the quality of the board because we're not being honest and providing our true opinions.Interesting to see how even it is, with several 3rd-round NFLers hanging with (and sometimes outpacing) the 1st rounders...
He's looked pretty good, but Favre will never retire. He gave up golf because it was too boring. How do you think he'll feel about riding a lawn tractor for fun?I look forward to seeing how well James Jones does with A. Rodgers at QB next year
Or Housh. It's quite possible that 4 of the FF WR1s (top 12) could be WR2s for their own NFL team in a year or 2, whenever Calvin gets there.So you have Reggie Williams, Vincent Jackson and Jerry Porter ranked higher than Reggie Wayne, Anquan Boldin and Calvin Johnson?
That only makes sense for the small percentage of people that posted after they voted; otherwise, all voting is "anonymous" (and even then, I think it's a bit silly to assume that people aren't voting what they really feel - they're voting for an underdog just so they can post "I told ya so"?). Anyway, there's currently 271 votes in the poll and 35 replies to the post. So even if you take out whatever those 35 votes are, you've still got a substantial voting base, enough to show that a good amount of people actually DO believe that some of these 3rd round WRs will outperform some of these 1st rounders in the longrun. But like you said, it doesn't mean anything unless they'll put money on itI don't find this interesting as much as annoying.

.....which of course, they have ample opportunity to do here at FBG 
Good call.Meachem is in 6th place...
Ted Ginn Jr. [ 8 ] ** [3.31%]Dwayne Bowe [ 40 ] ** [16.53%]Robert Meachem [ 21 ] ** [8.68%]Craig Davis [ 27 ] ** [11.16%]Anthony Gonzalez [ 43 ] ** [17.77%]Sidney Rice [ 15 ] ** [6.20%]Dwayne Jarrett [ 14 ] ** [5.79%]Steve Smith [ 18 ] ** [7.44%]Jacoby Jones [ 23 ] ** [9.50%]Jason Hill [ 4 ] ** [1.65%]James Jones [ 23 ] ** [9.50%]other (who?) [ 6 ] ** [2.48%]
Cameron has already removed him from kick return duties. If ginn does develop, it won't be for a few years
That's exactly why they do it, and the most annoying part is they will bump the thread if they turn out "right" even though if they were faced with taking a L.Robinson/J.Jones/Mike Walker type or a Bowe type i'd almost guarantee they would take Bowe at this point in time.What we have is people who ended up drafting one of these guys in the 3rd round of their rookie draft because they didn't have a chance at a Bowe type and trying to delude themselves into thinking that guy is actually a higher percentage play then the guys they didn't have a chance at.I don't find this interesting as much as annoying.

Shameless bump here... nearly 350 votes and not a single WR has more than 20% of the votes... Seems like every guy has a few pros/cons...Do you roll the dice with the high-upside / low-downside kind: Ginn, Rice?... or the 'seemingly' low-upside / high-downside kind: Bowe, Jarrett?... Pick one that is currently playing on a high-octane offense: Meachem, Gonzalez, Davis?... Or try and swing for the fences with one of the 'lesser known': Smith, the Joneses, Higgins, Robinson, Walker, Hill?...Tough call, in my opinion...
Uhh, as tough as a choice that is, i think i will go with the high-upside/low-downside guy.

I was even confusing myself when I wrote this... I meant the high-ceiling/low-floor guys or conversely, the low-ceiling/high-floor guys... better? (sorry, english is my second language)
