The USA list had me thinking about this. Off the top of my head and just based on impressions I've seen/heard (also keep in mind I'm in an auction league so by this I mean people will pay too much or they will be a good draft value)...

OVER

LT

Rudi J

R Brown

Caddy

Harrison

Lewis

Rhodes/Jordan

Bush (again)

A Green

Manning Sr

Brees

Harrison

Bruce

McMichael

Shockey

(frankly most TEs)

UNDER

Portis

Henry

Wayne

Burress

Evans

Delhomme

Vick

OVER

LT ,Manning, P -Best FF player in the game at their positions, unquestioned. If you want them, you'll have to pay.

R Brown, Caddy - Had sub-position drafted seasons and could be values where taken this year, especially Caddy

Harrison - Everyone's waiting for him to drop a step, this may be the year. Still the #1 Manning option and worth a 2-3rd round pick.

Lewis, Rhodes/Jordan, A Green - FF newbies may overpay, that's about it.

Bush (again) - PPR this guy should have another good season. True 1st rounder in that format.

Brees - Many will reach...

Bruce - No

McMichael - Possibly some will reach on the gamble of the Rams O, but not many...

Shockey - Still in the top tier TEs

(frankly most TEs) - If they're required, you gotta do what you gotta do.

UNDER

Portis

Henry - The hype of the trade and Denver's running game gives this guy too much pub. You'll overpay.

Wayne - Costs equals Harrison's.

Evans - Not consistant enough to be a #1 and still growing QB throwing to him. Who's gonna be their RB? You can get him cheap as a #1 but you'll pay for it all season.
My notes added.

Evans - Not consistant enough to be a #1
Thanks for proving my point
The thing that makes Evans risky in my book is that he about doubled his career high in receptions whick really drove his value up. Maybe he can do it again but that is a huge spike from his prior 2 years. Maybe he continues since he is now the guy there but I think he carries some risk in PPR.

Look at Chad Johnson's first two years. Look at Steve Smith's first two years. Look at Terrell Owens' first two years. Look at Torry Holt's first year. Look at Reggie Wayne's first 2-3 years. Look at Javon Walker's first two years. Look at Marvin Harrison's first three years. Look at Hines Ward's first three years.After you've done those things, tell me you are surprised that Lee Evans shows an upward trend early in his career. Evans is a stud. It's just that lot of people aren't aware of it yet. The Colstons and Boldins are the exceptions, not the rule.
