Randy Moss aint done just yet. Brady career year, possible 30+ TDs.
Oh dear
Try 40+ TDs.The subscriber contest is MINE. (Brady, Welker, Morris, TO, TJ, Galloway, Addai, Bush, Etc.).
That seems like an expensive line up. Who is Morris? And is TJ Thomas Jones or Housh? BTW, Brees, Addai, Rudi, Lamont, Andre Johnson, Berrian, Kellen Winslow and the Minny D is stronger than that crew. Brees will turn it around and after that this team will rule. Remember that TE's get more than just a PPR and Winslow lead all TE's last year in receptions by a long shot (89 to Gates' 71). Although if Andre is injured I'm gonna be in a world of hurt....

 
-What has happened to the first 2 consensus picks? LT and SJackson are not playing any where near their capabilites. I realize LT played 2 top defenses, so maybe you might be able to get him cheap: shrug:
LT was offered the Madden cover and turned it down. Jackson was offered the cover and he turned it down....Maybe the curse is coming to collect anyway.
 
One for each team

- That I was right about Moss (had him projected #2 WR)

- That Coles and Cotchery were steals

- That Ronnie Brown will be a huge bust

- That Lee Evans will be inconsistent like usual. But owners shouldnt overreact

- That Pitt is still a running team

- That Boeller > McNair and McGahee is gonna be a solid RB1

- That Derek Anderson is a good QB

- That Cincy's oline problems dont matter much

- That Schaub > Carr

- That Vince Young helps the TEN running game like Vick did in ATL

- That Wayne & Harrison are both top 5 WRs

- That JAX does not have the same running game as last year (not sure why)

- That Jordan is actually good when he has a good coaching staff to use him right

- That Henry is a top 10 RB like many predicted

- That KC sucks and LJ is in for a rough year, (but many of us predicted that already)

- That Rivers is still a young QB and will struggle vs top defenses

- That Eli may have taken the leap & that the Giants have a horrendous defense

- That McNabb may need some time to shake off the rust

- That Portis will be a monster this year

- That Dallas is a top3 offense and Barber is > Jones

- That the Lions are gonna be fun to watch this year

- That it could be a long year for Grossman

- That GB's defense is good and their running game sucks

- That MIN is a top 5 def and that Peterson will struggle in a lot of games this year due to Jackson

- That Delhomme couldve been a steal

- That there is something wrong in New Orleans

- That Cadillac could be a steal without a goalline vulture

- That while Vick may not have been the prettiest QB statwise he won games. ATL could be 2-0 with him.

- That STL looks like it could be a disaster in the making offensively

- That Alex Smith is not ready to take the leap

- That this isnt the offensive juggernaut passing team of the past in SEA

- That Edge will be a solid RB2/1 all year while the value of Fitz and Boldin has plummeted
I thought the same way with many predictions, including that AJ will be a top 5 WR in 2007 with Shaub, that N.O. was a smoke-n-mirrors team headed for a 7-9 or 6-10 season, that Edge had a lot left, and will finish as a top 10 RB , that Caddy IS a first class bust, and his effort yesterday proved it ( 19-51?)..I thought St Louis would fall apart long before Pace's injury, I'm with you on that! I disagree on Portis, he'll break down at some point..I think McNabb will be so/so this season, nothing special, LJ will have it tough the first 5/6 weeks, then its a walk in the park,and Herm's teams always do well in nov-dec...I like KC the 2nd half of '07..

I also LOVED Welker this season!

correctly pegged Bush as perhaps the most overrated player. eric metcalf, v2.0..

Also looks to me like that leap to WR1 for S. Holmes, might not happen till 2008..

I think I' might've pegged Brandon Jacobs correctly, dude looked terrible...big guys like him, don't run the ball well in the NFL..Ward might have a lock on that spot.
:rolleyes: Still on this shtick? I'd stop posting about Portis if I were you since he's already produced more than you guaranteed he wouldn't.
 
- I'm buying the Bengals passing game. This team has a suspect defense and an unspectacular ground game. They'll be throwing the ball a ton this season. Palmer should be a monster. Chris Henry's absence is having a huge positive effect on CJ and Housh because those guys are absorbing all of his lost production. Chad should have his best season as a pro and possibly contend for the WR1 ranking. If you have the depth needed to make a deal for Palmer or CJ, pull the trigger.

- The LenDale White haters need to eat their crow. He's not the next LJ, but he's basically what I thought he was: a Stephen Davis type who can grind out the yards and help his team win. This is yet another example of why you don't write off a RB just because he fails to become an instant star.

- Lynch and Peterson are both the real deal, but their weak supporting casts will probably relegate them to RB2-RB3 status in most formats. Both guys are solid long-term acquisitions in a dynasty league.
I am not a LenDale "hater" but have to question what led you to this conclusion? 15 rushes for 64 yards and a td doesn't prove anything in my book. Plus, the Titans did not win yesterday......close is still an "L" in the record book.
 
Minnesota has the worst QB in the league (with apologies to Rex). AD and Taylor will see 8 man fronts all year limiting their productivity and FF value.

As a result I still expect them both to play as well as some touches for Moore who is a decent pass catching 3rd down back. Bottom line is move AD while you can. I pulled the trigger today (AD and C. Johnson for Rudi)
:thumbup: Calvin? Or Chad? Either way its a bad trade for you
Calvin...and I don't even start him.AD will not put up Rudi FF numbers this year. He won't get enough touches.

No, but 15 for 64 (4.2 ypc) + 1 TD is better than 12 for 34 (2.8 ypc) and 0 TDs (which is what Chrissy Brown's line was yesterday). Not to mention that if losing to the Super Bowl champions is the factor for deciding whether or not your RB is bad, there's going to be about 12 or so teams with "bad" RBs.
