no Gore did not look this good. What Peterson has accomplished, while being stuck part of the season in a RBBC, is significantly better than what Gore did last year. Its not even in the same ball park IMO.Last year, in my standard scoring non PPR league, Frank Gore averaged 16.4 points per game.So far this year, in my standard scoring non PPR league, Peterson is averaging 24.3 points per game.
 
Keeping LT as the #1 is crazy. I don't have much quantifiable proof. But Terrell Davis, Marshall Faulk, Priest Holmes, they all only spent a couple years on top. LT has been there ...what 2 or 3 years (a couple ago it was between him and Shaun/LJ). To expect a guy to be #1 for that long is risky.

Actually, it's the same QB as last year. It's the no o-line bug that hit Gore this year. McKimmie, Hutch et al.... are not the SF offensive line.Looks like the "Philip Rivers" bug caught up to LT2 ;-)

I am just saying in the Gore/ADP comparsion buyer beware. ADP looks good. But unless Minny drastaclly improves their QB I think he might have a tough road. Heck ADP didnt do much the two weeks before samshing SD.

no not really, my team are doing fine. Guess there is no point in trying to offer a word of caution about purple jesus
 
Gotta love the MB3 :confused: goin' on here....

I'm a fan of the ADP in the Top 3 right now, just wondering which slot I'd put him in myself.

Might put Mcfadden in the top 10 pending who drafts him.

 
Looks like I'm the only one giving love to Portis, who's top 10 right now, and that is with a make shift line. When everyone is back and healthy next year, and hopefully a new Head Coach who will open up the offense, watch out! :rolleyes:

I agree with you. I have been a Portis fan for a long time, he has the talent to be top 5, but for me he sits right about 10-15.

Cheating Sooner PetersonLTAddaiFWPSJaxWestbrookK JonesW MacGaheeMaroneyLendale White :excited: Ronnie Brown
Suprised it took so long for Lendale White to show up on the list. Good post. Right now, he's top 10 in rushing yards, 2nd in rushing attempts, and has 5 rushing TDs (only 6 RBs have more - and one of them is Jamal Lewis). Tennessee seems to just be getting started with him as the main RB too - the last 4 weeks in a row he's had 25 or more carries (after only averaging 15.5 for the first 4 games) and the last 3 games in a row 100+ yards rushing - oh, and Tenn has won all 3 he's rushed for 100+.

Rudi

Lynch
I didnt know Rudi Johnson was a member here at FBG? :yawn: I am not even sure Rudi will be a starting RB next year, much less in the top 10.
Rudi has been the starter for many years now and usually injury=opportunity but in this case there isn't a young back waiting in the wings to take over.
Do you watch football?
:confused: Ummm, are you referring to the young player whose on IR, the young player who may come of the PUP list this week or the soon-to-be 30 year old 3rd down back whose starting as an injury replacement??

Any and all of the above. Cinci has been trying to line up Rudi's replacement for years.

Yep. And Rudi's kept the job every time. I'm not saying I love Rudi or anything - but he will be the starter next year. Now 2009 or 2010, maybe.ETA: You realize that Watson is older than Rudi right?

this may sound silly and people will probably lash out at me, but what about Selvin Young in PPR?

Assuming no Travis Henry and the Broncos dont draft anyone - I think Selvin Young could surprise the heck out of a lot of people.
