moviedude25 0 Posted November 13, 2008 This message goes out to the guys in charge of the FFToday rankings. Wes Welker is listed as the #12 WR this week. In a standard non ppr leagues, Wes Welker has been terrible. He doesn't get a lot of yards and hardly ever scores. His only value belongs in PPR leagues. When your posting rankings like you do and have a guy who's good only in leagues that most people don't play in it makes you look bad. Have you ever thought about doing two rankings to reflect PPR leagues and non PPR leagues to show the difference in value between the two? In a non PPR league Wes Welker is no where near going to be the 12th best WR in the league this or any week for that matter. On the season in a non PPR league with standard scoring of 1 point per 10 yards and 6 per TD he's scored: Week 1 - 5 Week 2 - 7 Week 3 - 5 Week 5 - 7 Week 6 - 7 Week 7 - 13 Week 8 - 7 Week 9 - 3 Week 10 - 10 That's terrible. Why do you reflect rankings like this for players who aren't going to be ranked that high ever? What's the deal here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FeelingMN 273 Posted November 13, 2008 Why do you care one way or another? If you don't think he'll perform according to his rank, then don't start him. It's your team, and your entry fee. Christ people, they're just rankings. Either follow them, or don't but quit with all the b!tching. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's ranked so high because they are guessing he finally scores another TD this week. Who the hell knows???? DUMB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daves Take 0 Posted November 14, 2008 If you set yourself up properly on FFToday, you can input the scoring for each of your league's and then the rankings will automatically be adjusted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kingstowne Dealers 14 Posted November 14, 2008 Welker scored 10 points in my standard league. How does that Crow taste? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

De Novo 0 Posted November 14, 2008 OP won't be back to this topic for a while huh? He don't like crow It was only 10 points. How is the OP eating crow? 10 points isn't going to be good enough for 12th. It probably won't get him in the top 20. I think that validates the OP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Connorsdad 38 Posted November 14, 2008 Yo Moviedude are you stupid projections are just a guess. Maybe they had a gut feeling about Welker why don't you try to do some projections and see how you do. Trust me it's not easy Come on dude spit out some projections. Goodluck in week 11!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that validates the OP. Actually, according to Week 10's numbers 10 points would qualify for top 16 in my league. Also in week 10 there were only 5 100-yard WR's not named Wes Welker I'll take it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
De Novo 0 Posted November 15, 2008 Because in a non PPR standard scoring league with no 100+ yd bonus 10 pts with no TD IS pretty good I'm not saying it isn't good. But 50 yards and a TD is better. And I still don't see how the OP is eating crow. Welker got 10 points, which I don't think will be good for 12th this week. Not saying it was a bad ranking, but not sure why the OP should be eating crow. It's not like Welker put up 20 points, and the OP's reasoning was spot-on. In non-PPR leagues, 10 points is the 2nd or 3rd highest output Welker's had this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes 50 yds & a TD is better......1 pts better(50 yds+6=11)....But if you are looking at it that way, Welker has just as much chance to catch a TD as any WR that you could expect to get 50 yds out of. The fact that he only has 1 TD should not come into play when making your lineup decision because he should have more.......& is more likely to score in the few remaining games than not score. The original poster's argument however was Welkers ranking.....assuming whomever ranked him felt that he would score, given his production.....that ranking was spot on(+6 for TD=16pts)........& for PPR leaguer's the yardage bonus, 7rec & 108yds yielded #1WR #'s............SO the original poster was off base with his tirade.......and by the looks of it does not like Crow.

Wrong. Touchdowns are not random. There's a reason some receivers consistently score more TDs than other receivers. The fact that he only has 1 TD should not come into play when making your lineup decision because he should have more.......& is more likely to score in the few remaining games than not score. The fact he has only 1 TD in an offense that throws to a slew of players in the red zone, and plays opposite Randy Moss, does not come into play? Riiiiight. assuming whomever ranked him felt that he would score, given his production.....that ranking was spot on(+6 for TD=16pts) But he didn't score. Not saying it was a bad ranking but, again, the OP wasn't wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not saying it was a bad ranking but, again, the OP wasn't wrong. I agree with you and the OP. At this stage in the year HE SHOULD NOT be projected to score a TD. Thus HE SHOULD NEVER be projected in the top 12 as the OP stated! (even though he was ranked 13th) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
