Doesn't change mine. If the guy was hurt and his resultant play showed it, then he should have been sitting. If it wasn't injury then he was just plain horrible.The guy I won't have is Anquan Boldin. I've drafted him three times - 2004, 2006, and 2009. His TD totals those three years are 1, 4, and 4. The years I don't draft him, his TDs are 8, 7, 9, and 11. He probably doesn't want me to draft him again either.
That's a huge leap of faith that Indy will always have everything wrapped up by week 16. You'd be doing yourself a huge disservice staying away from Manning based only on that premise.
wuss and sjax should never be used in the same sentence
Yes, he sucks.

They mean that you are sufficiently negative about the guy that there is no way that they are going to be around by the time you would be willing to draft them. This year, for me, this was Slaton and Forte. Would I have taken them in the 3rd or 4th round? Sure. Are there any leagues where these guys were still around in the 3rd? No. So it makes sense to say "I will never draft those guys."
TJones is
The only reason a player is never on any of my gazillion fantasy league is an opportunity and/or cost situation.I know some people think (not so much in this thread) that having a morally bankrupt player or personality jerk on thier team is somehow reflective of the FF owner. Since I don't really know any of these guys persoanlly, as NFL players they are just names and stats.
Where's the data to support this?Considering the volume of touches he got this year, I don't think you want him next year. It isn't often a RB gets that many touches and is very productive the next year.Jason Wood said:Chris Johnson. Because try as I might, I never seem to get the 1st pick in any league. Ever.
Isn't this the 3rd or 4th year in a row they pulled their starters early? Maybe I am mistaken
Johnson only had 358 carries, 408 touches. He seems safe by any of the "too many" theories. (And the how many carries or how many touches are too many debate is a constant one. )Where's the data to support this?Considering the volume of touches he got this year, I don't think you want him next year.

No it isn't. You end up drafting guys you weren't targeting all the time because people slip a round or two and all of a sudden they are decent value. The "I'm never going to draft this guy" comment is referring to people who you are multiple rounds more negative on than their expected ADP. You are not multiple rounds negative on most of the draftable players.
except for the fact that so many of them happened in the last half to a quarter of the season.Johnson only had 358 carries, 408 touches. He seems safe by any of the "too many" theories.

Zach Miller is not a bad option. He might not be consistent, but he receives 40+ yards pretty often and even grabs a touchdown here and there.
Yeah, I drafted Jennings in 2 leagues, he burned me, at least I was able to trade him in one league. I will have a hard time drafting him next year, I think he will go earlier than I'm willing to draft him. Once Driver hangs up his cleats, I may consider Jennings again.
Yeah I figured that out last year even though he had a good year and I had him on my team. Dude pulls himself from games with minor injuries.I called him soft last year and was chastized for it but this year validated everything I was saying about him at the end of last year. I am so glad I avoided him. I think the Giants may a huge mistake giving him the guaranteed money they gave him in the last offseason and I said it at the time. They should have just franchised him(which they did anyways) and let him play for his contract year after year.
QB11 with 6 pt. TDs, yeahHe had eight games of 0 to 15 points though, that's really bad. Another with 18.
You know I had Clinton Portis this year and even though he was horrid and I dumped him pretty early on I will say that I could envision taking him with a late pick next year.Why? Because I think he was dealing with the after effects of being overused last year and then he just quit on Zorn this year. He hated Zorn with a passion and I don't think he ever gave a full effort this year.I honestly believe his concussion wasn't as bad as he let on but he just had no desire to play under Zorn anymore and wanted a fresh start next year.Shanahan coming to Washington? Will Dennison follow? Obviously he as a great history with running backs. Will they draft a RB? Probably somewhere but Portis may still have a little left in the tank and thanks to his guaranteed money for next year he will be back guaranteed. The time he had off this year may actually bode well for him.
Given where I expect Jennings to go -- because lots of people seem to feel this way -- he's going to be a great value pick next year.shredhead said:
What did he have, 90 plus receptions and over 1000 yards as a TE? LOL and that's garbage? If you play this hobby long enough, you'll realize that Td's can fluctuate up and down. But if you're a TE and you're catching nearly 95 passes and are up over 1000 yards, there's a pretty good chance that his TE total will be up. Look at what he did several years back when he had solid yardage and only 1 Td? What happened after that?
Awesome.
