[BigMilk 40]

James Jett, Alexander Wright, and Rocket Ismail.

 

-AL

[Eriadoc 4]

Marcus Allen.

 

Guys from past teams I do not miss - Onterrio Smith, William Green, and Santana Moss every other year.

[Milwalkeysbeast 0]

Always liked Darrell Jackson, as well as Jimmy Smith. Neither one of them seemed to be picked where they should have and always fell to me at some point int he draft

[TD Ryan2 315]

Charlie Garner - mid round gold

 

Ricky Watters - yardage monster

 

Tim Brown - always picked in the mids, usually scored like an elite

 

Rod Smith - boring name, amazing WR stats

[Big Blue 06 195]

Tiki Barber. For some reason that nobody could explain, he ALWAYS slid way too low and he would put up big numbers. It happened every single year.

[DEEZNUTS 18]

Oh, man. I like this thread....great names already..

I miss Herman Moore, Natrone Means, Jerry Rice

[Laurence Maroney's Nuts 2]

James Jett, Alexander Wright, and Rocket Ismail.

 

-AL

 

I see what you did there, LOL.

 

Willie Gault is feeling a little left out though

[the_future420 3]

Wali Lundy.

[montana 89]

Had this guy on my team for years: Ed McCaffrey - he was wes welker before wes welker was wes welker!

[GridIronAssassin#1 0]

The 2 best fantasy kings of all time and I'd say the 2 best running backs of all time; Marshal Faulk and Priest Holmes.

[Grateful Parrot 0]

For me, the one that was the most steady for years in his position would be Shannon Sharpe. I rode those TE points for years.

[footballcashcow 0]

Eddie George

[RoadLizard 73]

Shaun Alexander - TD machine with NO vulture to worry about

Earl Campbell - My favorite player

Eddie George - 3 yards a carry but lots of TDs

Sterling Sharpe - Monster

Antonio Freeman - Monster for a few years

[patweisers44 710]

Fred Lane

Dan McGwire

Rae Carruth

Chad Pennington

Steve McNair

David PatteRn

 

On a serious note, Ben Coates.

[Thornton Melon 549]

STEPHEN DAVIS

[GridironGuzzlers 3]

Eric Moulds

 

had him several times, 10+ pts every week

[Busted by the Feds 9]

My "short term solution" in my young FF career : Billy Volek to Drew Bennett 2004. Yes, you who owned them know what I mean. I rode them from last place to the playoffs that year.

[travis_henrys_baby_momma 10]

Isaac Bruce

Curtis Martin

[surferskin 30]

STEPHEN DAVIS

 

Seriously, I'm really getting tired of starting him every week and ending up with a goose egg.

[Dr Hook 6]

NBS, Live it

Chris Carter..oh the joy of "all he does is catch td's"

I miss Curtis Martin, Barry Sanders and Tim Brown. Had all three the year Sanders had 2,000 yards rushing or close to it. Our QB that year was the greatest fantasy one year wonder, Kordell Stewart!!!!! Championship!!!!

[Knowsome Bobarino 0]

Going back a little further:

 

James Brooks (on my first ever fantasy team!)

Dalton Hilliard

Lars Tate

 

Names from the simplier days of fantasy football. I remember checking the box scores in the Monday paper for the Bengals, Saints, and Bucs respectively!

Jimmy 8-ball

[TD Ryan2 315]

James Stewart (JAX) - snagged him late and rode him to a title after Fragile Fred went down (again)

 

Billy Volek - had him along with Larry Johnson the year they combined for the greatest QB/RB second half ever and vaulted my team from doormat to championship.

 

Keenan McCardell - he was Jimmy Smith's equal for a few years and came much cheaper.

Yeah, but as soon as you bench him, he'll make you pay for it by signing with a team and running for a hundred and a score.

[GobbleDog 824]

Long live PRIEST HOLMES!

 

 

I'm ashamed to say I actually remember b*tching that Holmes was the only viable RB left late in the first round and having to take him. By the end of that amazing championship year and setting record fantasy points, I realized how bad I suck at predicting fantasy football and that Preist Holmes was in fact GOD ALMIGHTY! Hallelujah!

[belichick's hoody 0]

Steve Beuerlein and Patrick Jeffers circa 1999.

 

I was 14 years old in my 1st fantasy league...had no idea what I was doing, but I scooped both of them off waivers. For the 2nd half of the season, checking their stat lines every Sunday was like Christmas, and I eventually won the championship.

[6_million_dollar_faulk 0]

WR's: Joe Horn, Rod Smith, David Boston

 

RB's Travis Henry, Duce Staley, Domanick Davis

 

I somehow also always had Aaron Brooks (QB), can't say I miss him though.

I think your looking for the "Past players you quickly forgot about..." thread.

[jerryskids 5,434]

Great thread, and great names thrown out so far.

 

I spent most of my years in a keeper league, and I wanted to have Marshall Faulk's man child. That was not PPR, I can't even imagine how many points he'd have scored in that format. Honorable mention to Daunte Culpepper; that league only gives 3 pts for passing TDs, so those rushing TDs made him golden.

 

Other fond memories:

- Rod Smith never quite got the pub he deserved.

- Moe Williams. Other TD vultures have since come, but he was the master.

- Travis Henry. I remember catching some draft-day smack for picking him, then he had that 150 yd 3 TD opening day.

- Picking Lamont Jordan over Stephen Jackson in that same keeper league. I chose... poorly.

 

And of course, Tommy Maddox.

[Fearsome 22]

Former Redskins great...Terry Allen. As dominant a player as there was in FF in the mid-90's.

[Maxx Dread 1]

Barry Sanders, Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, Mike Alstott.

 

COME BACK BARRY!!!!

[6_million_dollar_faulk 0]

I think your looking for the "Past players you quickly forgot about..." thread.

 

Also "Past players I vaguely remember..." would apply, haha. Although I don't think Rod Smith & Joe Horn would fit that list. I remember that I had a huge double digit lead going into that infamous Joe Horn "Cell Phone", after each TD I watched my lead dwindles until it got down to single digits. Thankfully I still won that week.

Torry Holt, Mark Chimura (before he started getting busted in hot tubs with 9th graders)
