Walter34 3 Posted June 4, 2005 Gents, I have a keeper decision to make in another league and have to decide between KJ, JJ and Dom Davis. Leaning towards KJ at this point due to the Det offence. Teams will have to respect the pass and that may open up things for KJ in a big way. Davis is more proven and the league has 1 pt / reception, so having some 2nd thoughts. What are your stat projections for each? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
remote controller 143 Posted June 4, 2005 Sorry Walt, I haven' t got my projections complete, but we all know projections are simply a result of gut feelings, in many ways. I believe my projections will lead me to believe you are right. I like K. Jones over J. Jones and Dom. I like Dom over Julius too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BartHendricks17 0 Posted June 5, 2005 Kevin Jones is the obvious choice. He was dominant last season when given the ball. There is no way teams can put 8 in the box against Detroit this year with their WRs. Not to mention Pollard. Look for Detroit to explode offensively. Bart predicts 1500 and 13 TDs for Jones. It's a lock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dan 66 Posted June 5, 2005 After careful research and analysis, I have decided that I prefer Kevin Jones. I just simply like his talent, and think that he is better than the other two. In other words, it's my gut. Hope that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The pt per reception is the thing that makes this tricky, but my gut says Jones as well. Based on last year,Davis had 1776 yards, 14 TDs, 68 rec. These arent numbers to sneeze at. 329 FF points. The negatives with Jones are: * Hasnt proven to be the goalline guy yet * Doesnt have the same receiving skill or production and with all the passing options available in Det, may not improve on his numbers. * The bulk of his numbers were accumulated vs soft defences in the 2nd half of the year - GB, Minn, Chi, Indy, Ari. If we assume improvement on both TDs and receiving to say, 11 TDs and 40-250 numbers, he will still have to accumulate 1980 rushing yards. That is a pretty tall order. I think it is a case of over hype for one player and underating another. Davis is the better producer short term. Long term depends on Houston's plans at RB and whether KJ actually improves this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
