Silva's Post-Season Top 200 (1 Viewer)

Doug Martin at #11........ LMAO
I don't like 11 either, but depending who I'm drafting with. Some FF folks are locked into a stud RB theory that worked in years prior where no matter what they are drafting two RBs to open every draft. If you put Martin at like 15 16 and suppose you got a top WR in round one....I could see it. Depending on the types you're drafting with, it may seem like there are no RBs left by the third.

 
75. Chris Johnson -- The Titans should have cut him two offseasons ago. Although Johnson still intermittently flashes game-breaking ability, his on-field effort has been inconsistent to be kind, and his 2013 YPC average of 3.86 was the worst of his career. Turning 29 early next season and a certainty to be released by Tennessee, Johnson is likely to prove no more than a 2014 tease. The ability hasn't evaporated, but the desire to be great went out the window several years back.

Once again, CJ2K put up a top ten RB season, despite yet another injury riddled season at QB, and this time with a meniscus tear in his knee. How underrated can this guy be? 75th? 5 spots behind Steven Jackson? That's just brutal.

 
Doug Martin at #11........ LMAO
Do you think he should be higher or lower?
Lower for me. I have a hard time seeing Martin as the #1 RB at the end of the year. #2 or #3 means he's unseated at least one of ADP, Charles, McCoy and Lynch, which is tough for me, too. Throw in Calvin and naybe Manning or Jimmy Graham, and you've got six or seven guys I don't expect him to pass in terms of value. So I have a hard time picturing Martin exceeding his draft position if you take him #11.But it's pretty easy for me to picture him being a huge bust. Schiano's gone - and like him or not, the running game was not Schiano's weak point. They changed QBs, and in a new offense, Glennon might not look to Martin as often as Freeman did two years ago. Every back that touched the ball in that offense looked good, except Martin, so we don't really know what percentage of the touches he'll get, either - and his value his rookie year was largely based on touches. Oh, and he's coming off a season ending injury. Put it all together, and you've got some pretty substantial risk.

To be fair, he might be in a "top of the next tier" spot - the guys behind him aren't overwhelming, either. But 20, 21 and 22 - almost a full round later - are DeMarco, Stacy and Lev Bell. All of those guys have similar risk/reward profiles to Martin, imo - Murray's an injury risk, Stacy's a replacement risk, and Bell's a... talent risk? I can see taking any of those guys ahead of Martin, let alone ten picks behind.

he's difficult to predict success for week to week making it difficult for FF.

 
I only looked at a few, and quickly realized this is worthless. I don't generally look at rankings anyway, but when I see Mathews over Bernard, time to read something else.

I'd rather have Bernard than Mathews, but I don't think it's a ridiculous assertion. Mathews is a good RB. Not beyond the realm of possibility that he outscores Gio for the next few years.
