VinGoodman 0 Posted September 25, 2007 is it not true that if you have 2 or 3 of the following you are 3-0 or 2-1? lamont jordan willie parker brian westbrook carson palmer tom brady joseph addai payton manning randy moss chad johnson terrell owens edge alexander kitna smith burris and conversely, if you have none of the above you are probably 1-2 or 0-3? wouldn't that make them the top 15 picks? isn't that the very definition of draft order, how they score? or how we think they will score? and since we know what they have done 3 weeks in, wouldn't we base our list on that? i don't know, mabey its too logical. bookmark this if you want but i'm goin on record right now(i'll make it through week 8 so we won't have to wait until years end). 1) san diego chargers will continue thier suckazz ways because of norvella. more sideline blowups in their future. LT2 will have 500+ yards by week 8 but less than 6 total td's(which makes him a bust as the #1 pick) 2)LJ will continue to blow chunks. the loss of roaf last year caused a noticeable decline in his YPC(he went from over 5 ypc to just north of 4.5, no one noticed because 4.5+ ypc is still really good), the loss of sheilds just finished the job. plus the team stinx. he should also have 500 or more yards, but there is a chance he doesn't. and td's, froget it. and get this, i say the queefs are 3-5 or 2-6 at that point. 3)sjax, i feel sorry for those who drafted him. but it is what it is. i'm not gonna prognosticate for the owners of sjax, just know there will be much agony of defeat. 4)gore at least has a shot at some decent numbers. he won't be anywhere near the numbers you would expect from a top 4, but he will be a top 10 back. all you owners looking for a turn around from these 4, forget it. if you can unload LT2 or LJ, do it now! first game can be considered rust, second game a slow start, by game 3 its called a trend! we are witnessing fantasy football history. never before have the top 4 picks flopped like this. oh and my man lamont will probably not still be the #1. addai, parker, westbrook and alexander should all pass him up. they are all on much better football teams. but he will still be top 7or 8 as long as he doesn't get hurt. this is not sarcasm, this is the great carnac, it is written so it shall pass. adjust your teams accordingly. I will go on record here as well. Barring injury (my condolences to SJax owners), Tomlinson will have over 1500 total yards and over 10 touchdowns. I see this as the BOTTOM for him this season, with little chance he'll disappoint me regarding this. If this is not a low risk pick, I don't know what is. Of course, he can disappoint (haven't learned how to see the future yet, but working on it), but I like my chances. Going out on a limb here, I think he'll reach 16 TDs. If he decides to don his superman cape, he can hit 20+ TDs. This is the reason I have him as #1 on my list. It's not just that his high can be great. It's also that his low is serviceable. You play with pocket Aces. You'll usually have a decent hand at the end (at least pocket Aces). Sometime it's not the best hand. That's just how the game goes. Going 2-1 or 3-0 is not what makes players top 15. By your logic, I'm surprised you have Manning in the top 10; he's only the 8th best QB on my league after 3 weeks, and would not be the reason you won week 2 or week 3 (he was ok, but easily outperformed by many other quarterbacks).

Pound 0 Posted September 25, 2007 let me guess, you had a top 3 pick and got stuck with a dud? don't be a hater. i watch all the raider games, all the press confrences, everything raider. rhodes is not going to take lamonts place unless he gets hurt. he will spell him a bit, but lamont has earned his spot. believe me, i swore off all raiders. i posted on this board to stay awya, thought their oline couldn't possibly turn it around like this, i was wrong. i took lamont WAY late because no one would touch him and i'm a homer! he is top dog 3 weeks in, no denyin it! I have no hate for you, just think you need to come back to reality. What player on my roster did I draft in the top 3? lol.. nice guess braniac. You think the Raiders are paying Rhodes $7.5M to sit on the bench? He's going to get some carries (like 50%). Wait til Oak plays some tough defenses too. 1st overall pick? yeah ok.

They're only paying him something like $1.5M this year, with a $1M signing bonus. That's pretty cheap in NFL dollars these days. Plus, the man isn't in playing shape. There's no way that he stays in playing shaped while not practicing for 4 weeks and not taking any hits in practice. Plus, he's a career backup. There's no way he gets any significant playing time anytime soon unless LJ2 gets hurt or needs a breather. JMHO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
