The TOP 10 DYNASTY WR that most owners hate owning. (1 Viewer)

[THE UNDERCOVER BROTHA]

Ok i wont even post his name. You guys who play dynasty know who im referencing to.

He is the guy you take and be like.... awww-chiiii Jennings or DJax went right before you picked. dangit!!

He is the same player that most dont offer you trades for unless they trading you some poop for him.

Who is this player?

This shouldnt take long.........

Randy Moss and Reggie Wayne because of age.Vincent Jackson and Brandon Marshall for off the field matters.

Well i have Moss on a few teams and CONTENDERS always trying to get him from me.

He actually has decent trade interest even though he is older.

Wayne is sorta getting close to this point but guys are still looking to land him as a wr1 type

and really for a wr2 if you already have AJ or Calvin/Austin already rostered.

 

[THE UNDERCOVER BROTHA]

Actually the player i was talking about is M.COLSTEN.

It seems most guys always trying to pry him OFF there teams.

Ofcourse they want someone of equal value but in my many dynasty leagues i

wonder why most dont like holding him. I asked a few owners and most like no one

offers any deals for him when they had him and when they did the offers was horrible for the most part.

Ok beyond all of that, He isnt hyped much here in the shark pool, He doesnt have the threads like most top 10 wr's.

So it got me to wondering, although he stayed healthy last yr do most still worry about his knee??

I know that was my reason for shipping him off in a few leagues last yr. Is it cause Brees spreads it around too much, and maybe with R.Bush

looking more healthy now he could get more rec's? Maybe its cause he only had one real good year and the other ones were decent.

To me i wouldnt want him as my WR1, WR2 would be cool i guess.

Do any of you feel like this while you are holding Colsten who many have ranked top 10 for dynasty, but many will turn you down

if you try and snag a Crabtree/Nicks types who is rated under him in most dynasty rankings.

This is no ragg on Colsten, he has some talents, i think if he switched places with VJAX, he would be held in a higher regard IMO.

 

[shortbow]

Because hes the best of the mediocre overloaded offense, he will get is receptions and touchdowns just not as many of either as any player ranked similarly as he is (doesnt make sense right? Why is he a top 15 WR still?)

Colston was my guess based on your initial posts. He gets zero love from my teammates. I offer him in trades and everyone consistently undervalues him. For a while i just wondered if may be me and the FBG staff were OVERvaluing him.

 

[Otis]

He went to a Hofstra and doesn't have the sexy, dominant WR pedigree of other younger players. I think that is why people often overlook him.

 

[jon_mx]

Colston's numbers are very solid WR#2 numbers, so why would someone give up a WR#1 for him? I actually think he might bump up his numbers a bit, but his upside is probably a low-end WR#1. There offense just spreads the ball too thin. He is still reasonably young and has a great young QB throwing to him. In Dynasty he is an awesome WR#2 that should produce for several more years.

 

[The Real Hipster Doofus]

Colston is good, but I think he more than others in that area is dependent on staying with the team he is on. Also there has been a lot written about his knees. I haven't really gone in depth on that yet, but it seems to have some people concerned enough.

 

[Patoons]

His knees and the fact that Brees spreads the ball around and doesn't lock in to Colston is the reason people don't value him all that highly.

I wrote something on his knees last year. Long-term outlook isn't all that solid for him given the history of other players who have had multiple microfracture surgeries.http://www.retiredrookie.com/2009/07/colston.html

Yeah but Otis he was hyped like CJ/Harvin/Finley types when he came out of nowhere like a ww pickup

and posted top end numbers. I dont think going to Hofstra has much to do with. CJ went to a little known school

and guys like R.Rice went to rutgers. I say its the past injury history. Who wouldnt want him as a wr2/3 like i said

before when i had him i really didnt want to be the one stuck with him

should he have another "knee" injury. Thus me saying he like a hot potato.

FBG ahas him top 10 which is odd to me, i agree more with SSOG site that has him 16.

My top 10 for dynasty would be this and non of these guys i would trade for Colsten:

1. A.Johnson

2. C.Johnson

3. L.Fitzgerald

4. M.Austin

5. R.White

6. G.Jennings

7. V.Jackson

8. R.Wayne

9. D.Jackson

10. D.Bryant

others i have ranked im almost sure i wouldnt trade them for Colsten.

11. B.Marshall

13. H.Nicks

14. M.Crabtree

And dependent on my team and scoring setup i would have to think on the Moss and Wes types.

Again this is no bag on Colsten, he is a good wr, but i wonder if i have seen his peak. With the age difference and upside

of the Dez/Nicks/Crabtree types i would prefer them over him.

 

[Happy Ragnarok]

I have that "awww-chiiiiii" moment if Colston is taken, and Jackson falls to me. Zero interest in a guy who had most of his points last year come on miracle fly patterns with blown coverages. This guy's a lot less Michael Irvin, and a lot more Alvin Harper.

I don't think where he played in college has anything to do with it. Jerry Rice went to Mississippi Valley State, and other high profile NFL players have also gone to lesser known college programs.

Uhhhh.... Where is Fitzgerald? If he is outside of your top 10 dynasty WR's then you pretty much lose all credibility on the topic.

I think he brittle as hell myself, but most people underrate how easy that guy gets open. People dont say the same on Mike Wallace, there similar although he is alittle bigger but he is like DJAX a matchup problem. I really like the big strong fast wr's like in the AJ mold and alwaysdiscounted those itty-bitty wr's but i have to open up my eyes or i will get passed by in this hobby. Not all of them will hit, but some of those lil fellas are very good in there craft.

Which CJ? If it's Chris Johnson, he went to East Carolina University which is the third largest university in NC. ECU is also in Conference USA which in football they have won the C-USA Championship the last two years in a row. I don't consider them little known, but I guess to some they are.

WTH?!?! complete oversight, thought i had listed him....(dynasty he still top 4) although i expect those numbers to do the dip-dance this year.

 

[THE UNDERCOVER BROTHA]

Topic was about Colsten but Greg Jennings is silently falling into this category as well.
