Cstriker 2 Posted September 8, 2010 Probably a 8 team league. But he picks Flacco second after all the QBs dissapeared in the first. Atleast he thinks high of Forte. "Hey world I now introduce u to the houdini's. 1st MJD, 2nd Joe Flacco, 3rd Calvin johnson, 4th Roddy white, 5th Matt Forte, 6th brent celek, 7th Ben Roethlisberger, 8th Jerome Harrison, 9th trent edwards, 10th green bays defense, 11th neil rackers, 12th julian edleman, 13th dexter McCluster " Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jls8421 3 Posted September 8, 2010 I agree... A conflict of interest... I've heard him talk about it before, apparently it's a free league with his buddies. So, supposedly there is no money or gambling involved. I watched a special a year or so ago about Chris Cooley's league on the NFL network. So they know what's going on.

FeelingMN 273 Posted September 8, 2010 ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that there are "questions and doubts around the league" regarding the health of Maurice Jones-Drew's knee. Schefter confirms that Jones-Drew will start Sunday, but it sounds like there is serious concern about whether he'll be 100 percent. It's never a good sign when a running back has a knee injury, period. We can't imagine sitting MJD in such a favorable matchup (the Broncos' front seven is incredibly weak), but it's a situation to track closely early in the year. Jones-Drew owners must grab Rashad Jennings. Deep leaguers can pick up Deji Karim. Sep. 8 - 2:12 pm et http://www.rotoworld.com/content/HeadLines.aspx?sport=NFL&hl=181147 Really nothing more than what we already knew. Still, there's alot of smoke here....and it ain't going away.

The Football Guru 214 Posted September 8, 2010 I'm wondering why we can't seem to get a practice report out of Jags' camp...it's an issue, then it's not. http://www.jaguars.com/multimedia/?id=3724 MJD says "there is no injury, put that in the paper". There's going to be a lot of people with egg on their face after this episode. I think it will be the folks in the media that ran with this story, but I'm going to roster Jennings just in case. I tend to believe this is the Jags and MJD learning from last year's ankle issue. Hopefully, he'll fall to me at #11 tonight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nos23 1 Posted September 8, 2010 Maurice Jones-Drew's name does not appear on the Jaguars' Week 1 injury report. Those aware of the situation know MJD missed the final two preseason games and numerous late-camp practices with a knee injury. At one point, a report even surfaced that he had knee surgery. The Jags, though, don't appear to be concerned, and Jones-Drew should certainly be in fantasy lineups against the Broncos. Owners would still be wise to hang tightly to Rashad Jennings.

ichinese 0 Posted September 9, 2010 if mjd asked me to rate his team on the "a little help board" i would ask him this question: trent edwards? wtf? seriously why are you carrying 3 qbs? and i would also advise him to pick up his own hc especially with all the rumors surrounding his knee. actually perhaps what this really means is knee-gate=fail!

Actually, if you owned him before last season I can understand the consistency statement. i wouldn't call his 2009 very consistent at all. two 3TD games along with six 0TD games. 5 times he rushed for over 100 yards inclusing a 177 yard effort against the Titans but 6 times he rushed for less than 70 and twice he rushed for less than 40. the only thing he consistantly did was catch a few balls each game which helps out in PPR point consistancy at least.

Filthy Fernadez 2,696 Posted September 9, 2010 Actually, if you owned him before last season I can understand the consistency statement. I did for two seasons and it was indeed maddening. 2009 he had 300+ rush attempts so he SHOULD have good numbers but as White Wonder said below, at times he came up short for such a high draft pick. i wouldn't call his 2009 very consistent at all. two 3TD games along with six 0TD games. 5 times he rushed for over 100 yards inclusing a 177 yard effort against the Titans but 6 times he rushed for less than 70 and twice he rushed for less than 40. the only thing he consistantly did was catch a few balls each game which helps out in PPR point consistancy at least.
