When / if both Gordon and AP return next week then where do you rank t (1 Viewer)

[Team Smokin']

I can easily see an almost instant impact ranking each of them respectfully around the 5-10 overall at WR & RB with upside in the top 5 for the rest of this year. Thoughts?

WR

1. Brown

2. Thomas

3. Nelson

4. Johnson

5. Cobb

5. Gordon

7. Sanders

8. Maclin

9. Beckham, Jr.

10. Jones

10. Watkins

10. Hilton

13. Evans

RB

1. Murray

2. Forte

3. Foster

4. Charles

5. Lynch

5. AP

7. Ingram

8. Ellington

9. Bell

10. Lacy

10. McCoy - hmmm

10. Robinson

13. Forsett

This def needed another thread.

I agree with the OP. I think those rankings are about right.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Scoring formats vary, but in our full PPR league I am projecting him to be in the 15.00-16.50 range. He may blow up but I don't see him throwing up 20-24 out of the gate. I figure he'll have a Benjamin-Hopkins-Watkins type floor with upside to Beckham-Green-Julio-Evans range. Basically, solid WR2 or low end WR1.

It wouldn't suck if I'm wrong, but I'm not sure top 5 from the get go is realistic for a guy who hasn't played for three months.

 

[BobbyLayne]

ADP, on the other hand, will rampage. Basically, Attila the Hun, hide the women and elderly.

 

[Darryl Talley]

Holy crap. AP is really coming back?

Lock the doors, close the shudders AP on an all out rampage to establish himself as the overall, clearcut #1.

Baylor Josh Gordon 125 and a TD to begin.

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Dammit, i was type-sprinting to make this joke.

Adrian's schedule is not good.

 

[LittlePhatty]

Gordon - I would rank him very high.

Peterson - I wouldn't touch him with a ten foot pole.

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Gordon - I would rank him very high.

Peterson - I wouldn't touch him with a ten foot pole.

How about a two foot switch?

 

[The Jerk]

Gordon - I would rank him very high.

The NFL certainly did.

 

[LittlePhatty]

Guys, replying to my lame jokes within even lamer jokes kinda ruins it.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Adrian's schedule is not good.

Yeah, gotta play the match ups with that guy amiright

 

[Sabertooth]

Adrian's schedule is not good.

Yeah, gotta play the match ups with that guy amiright

To an extent yeah, but playing the Jets and the Lions in the playoffs is kind of scary.

 

[matuski]

Dez ranked kinda low OP

His hallmark is beating 8 in the box. Really?

I shutter to think about it.

definetly maybe

Rashad Jennings put up 96 yds and a TD against the Lions. Chris Ivory 100 total yards. Pretty sure it's the Lions who would be kind of scared to see Peterson.

 

[tonystrong]

Has there been any recent reports about the shape that these two are in? I read a few weeks back that Gordon has been working out at the team facility and seems to be in good physical shape. But I also read somewhere that Peterson is not in shape and the Vikings question his ability to step right in and play.

Does anyone has any credible news links regarding this?

 

[tonystrong]

Here's a pretty good article from today on Gordon:

http://www.cleveland.com/browns/index.ssf/2014/11/kyle_shanahan_on_josh_gordons.html

per Donte Whitner: "He's just been here working hard. He doesn't really say much. A lot of times he has his headphones on. But if you go out there into the indoor [practice field] and you see him working with the strength and conditioning coaches, he's working really hard -- a lot of sprints, a lot of working out. So hopefully he's able to come back and not miss a beat."

 

[nastynate]

Peterson, in bad shape...right. I'm guessing he's been spending extra time working out.

You could argue he's not ready to take the hits, but it's not as if he's played preseason in recent years.

I'd be willing to bet he's ready to step in and take 20 carries on short notice.

The whole narrative of ADP "running mad" is so hilarious to me. Its the NFL, that ra-ra stuff doesn't mean anything and nobody will be scared of him.
