Have to agree here. The other guys mentioned in this thread have definitely been disappointing, but none of them had the price tag coming into the season that Forte did.

Larry Johnson hasn't scored many points.
Anthony Gonzalez. Again.

Jennings
This last game just bumped him into WR19 in my league, hardly what I expected from a WR1
Lee Evans
Even if you took him as your WR3, he just has not got it done.
Slaton
May have been taken in most 1st RD's. Never a good thing when you lose your job mid season.
Forte
His PPR has put him at RB13 in my leagues, but just unspectacular each week
Tomlison
If you took him in he 1st or 2nd, you can't be happy
Lynch
He almost did better weeks 1-3 than this last weeks results .80
RBush
In non-ppr leagues, does he even get drafted? He has never had 600 rushing yards, and is at 277 to date
Cutler
If you drafted him, he was your #1, and I am sure he went pretty early, and I'm sure you expected top 5 stats. He sits outside QB10 in my leagues
Keller/ZMiller/Carlson
If you drafted these guys, you expected potential top 5 TE stats, they are not even at top 10 stat level

It it helps, a month ago we would have answered "The Titans"and who's actually disappointed with the Raiders? They are who we thought they were. I'm more disappointed with the Bills, but I had unreasonable expectations there. Tomlinson, FWP, McFadden, LenDale White, Chris Henry, Eddie Royal, and Roy Williams are my short list, I'm sure I'm missing someone.Forte is still RB2 material at least, sure he cost a lot more.

for me it's -
QB: Ryan
RB: Forte
WR: Houshmandzadeh
TE: Witten
QB: Ryan
RB: Forte
WR: Houshmandzadeh
TE: Witten

I was thinking this too.. but TE's production is so limited.. and Witten is money every week for 40 yards... so while he's a flop he's not near the magnitude of flop as:Forte (drafted pretty high... ADP around 1.4 IIRC)LT... was going 1.8 for ADP when I drafted.. I took him 7
Slaton at least last year was a timeshare.. so he went later in the first or early second I think.Portis has to be up there too... but the first round guys are KILLER when they lay an egg for you... esp when you could have had DeAngelo, CJ, etc.

I'd pick Forte, but other "worthy" players have also been mentioned.

2 of them are ahead of Witten and one is just behind. That makes all of those not even close in the most disappointing department. Witten was one of the most sure things in the draft. He is ranked 16th in my league right now.

Forte easily, Went #3 in our 2 ppr league...12th highest scoring RB, 41st overall

Forte is definitely a heavy contender. I can't give the guy away.

Witten for the TE1/2 drafted by most. I'm almost glad he's dinged this week, so I can justify starting Finley (GB) over him this week.
Bowe has been brutal also, and the 4 game suspension hasn't helped his cause.

this year being the "year of great TE depth" was also a gigantic "disappointment" ... Honestly it has been Dallas Clark, Owen Daniels (before injury), and a whole lot of roller coaster options.

Anthony Gonzalez has scored 0 points, a result of a mystery chop block delivered by a ray of light.
FBG had him at WR 16 before the season. Not faulting...just saying.
All these guys who scored SOME points that you have listed. Subtract that number of points from itself and that's how many points Anthony Gonzalez has scored.

Portis. Didn't think it would be that bad.

For me, Jason Witten. 1 TD I think in week one and hasn't had more than 40 yds most weeks. Forte has been terrible....

I also didn't think McGahee would be THIS invisible.

At least you can stick someone in for Gonzalez. Guys like Witten and Forte are healthy bums that keep finding their way into the lineup.

Yeah, but, except for week 1, you KNEW he wasn't scoring points, and replaced him in the lineup. Guys like Forte or Jacobs have enough talent to need to put them in the lineup every week, and consequently have dragged teams down more.

Eddie Royal has to be number one on this list.

Jennings for me. But Witten deserves some discredit as well.
Their drop-offs are just inexplicable. At least Forte, Cutler, Westy and LT had some warning signs. With Jennings and Witten, you are simply holding the bag saying WTF as an expected team strength is mysteriously turning belly up.

this is who i like, but simply because he's on my team and disappointed me. royal is another one.i can see forte since he would have been drafted in the first round. depending on where barber was drafted, though, he might be more worthy. he's 26th RB and 241st overall in my league. forte is at least 14/60. he at least puts up numbers worthy of a starter.

I told everyone I thought Jennings was going too high. Forte was going #2 in some leagues though so he deserves mention. Slaton was going in the first round in some PPR leagues too.
