PLEASE SEE ANALYSIS ON ALL BELOW
Fantasy draft round # depends on league size. (I'm assuming 10-12) put overall draft number if you like.
1. R. Bush (2007 redraft round 1 pick)
2. L. Maroney (round 2-3)
3. J. Addai (round 3-4)
4. D. Williams (Round 3-4)
5. J. Norwood (round 4-5)
Note: M Bell could be higher (#2-4??), but I have given up on Shanahan. He is too unpredictable and he doesnt care about you or me or FFB.
I'm am trying to play devil's advocate for each player, but mix in some positives for each player
J. Addai-- Dominic Rhodes contract expires after this season and Indy probably won't to resign him. Addai should enjoy playing with Manning, Harrison, and Wayne, talented defense and perpetually easy schedule. knock is that he only started one year at LSU so is relatively unknown.
M. Bell-- One word: Shanahan. I don't think he has felt comfortable with a RB since Terrell Davis. Shanahan reminds me of Spurrier with his QBs at Florida. As far as Bell he is major unknown and Tatum Bell has major talent-- if he would only hold on to the football. also, I expect Cutler in next year.
R. Bush-- Looks good early, but have to wonder about durability. also will NO keep Brees if they have a shot a Quinn or Brohm in 2007 draft? His WR skills are as polished as I have seen so he should get catches in catch up games, especially with such a terrible defense that is years away from improvement.
W. Lundy-- Could be good this year, but I don’t see Kubiak sticking with him through next season. Maybe front office comes to senses and drafts RB, possibly Peterson or M Bush if either comes out depending on there 2007 draft position.
J. Norwood-- Still not sure about W. Dunn status-- is 07 the year he falls off? Vick's need to stop erratic play. Team loves to run so should get numbers. similar situation as Brandon Jacobs in NY. Norwood has decent size and speed to burn.
M. Jones-Drew-- Diminutive RB. Greg Jones will return next year. maybe injury prone Taylor. With Playoff window open for Jax, would team risk little RB depth? Decent offensive line but could use one more first day talent. Jones-Drew will catch passes and is a threat to take it all the way.
L. Maroney-- Like bush looks good early. Patriots should use both 2007 1st round draft picks for defense which could give him 4th quarter stats. not sure NE dumps Dillon next year, which could mean few Goal line carries. Tends to dance in backfield and not sure about repeated running between tackles.
L. White-- Full blown RBBC in Tennessee with Brown, Henry, and White. If Young starts next season, Titans could be throwing a lot. Need major help on both sides of the ball. White is still immature and hasn’t done anything to shake lazy (off field) label.
D. Williams-- hard to gauge without S. Smith in the lineup. also RBBC with Foster. Is he too small for every down back, despite what he did at Memphis? Carolina's defense should always keep them in games. should try to draft TE in 2007 draft to help open up offense which would benefit Williams.
