What is the current value of Chris Johnson?

[envoy9 5]

So, it looks like the preseason was just a teaser and we're back to the 2010-2011 pace. If your drafts were held today based on what you know now, what round would he go in?

Wish I shared your optimism.

I just spent 15 minutes in the bathroom getting rid of last night's Chili. When I looked down in the porcelain throne, I saw Chris Johnson.

[Gratefulegg1973 253]

I've had him since his rookie year in a keeper league. Honestly, I wouldn't take him higher than my RB3. Not only does he look terrible, Tennessee is arguably the worst offense in the league. They definitely have the worst line in the league, and Locker may be the worst QB in the league this side of Brandon Weeden. I really think he has about the same value as someone like Deangelo Williams, Peyton Hillis, etc.

Thank god I didn't end up with this bum again this year.

 

Players currently with more rushing yards than CJ0K.

 

Jackie Battle

Curtis Brinkley

L. Mclain

J. Locker

He looks alot like your mom

I'll explain it to you some other time.

Hope so, cuz obviously I'm not getting it?

[vash1012 19]

The sad thing is he is the or one of the highest paid offensive players in the league. You could get any guy off the street with a decent build to run for just as much.

Yea...I need some time to make something up.

Like Brad Pitt said in Moneyball;

 

There's all the running backs in the NFL, then there is 50 feet of crap, then there is Chris Johnson.

 

I would give you some #2-3 receivers for him right now, nothing more.

CJ2K = Shaun Alexander the 2nd

[stonewall 647]

Buy Low

[Gratefulegg1973 253]

Buy Low

 

Buy low?? lol. He has 19yds rushing in 2 games! The Titans are terrible. O line is putrid. Locker sucks. Defense sucks. What are you hoping for, him to be a competent RB4 on your team?

Barring injury, his value will never be lower than right now. You can get him for a bag of peanuts. Buy Low.

[cdogge 17]

I've never seen a 1st round pick become so absolutely useless this quick... there's zero chance I'd start him going forward.

Was this a real quote? I've never seen money ball. Which I think I should.

[Reality 2,710]

2 envelopes and some jaw breakers?

[Serpent 51]

I'm so glad he never fell to me. I just kept picking up Brees at the end of round 1. Brees hasn't been awesome or anything, but he's been serviceable. Can't say that about CJ1YPC.

[Matt Mueller 146]

My buddy just offered him up for a pretzel or a reeses product.

[cheesesteaks 0]

I'm pissed at CJ0k. Fortunately I benched him for Spiller and used a WR at flex. His value is too low so I'm not going to trade him. Hopefully the Titans offense improves and he is at least a RB2.

[GreenTD 56]

Well, he said it in relation to baseball & the Oakland A's but yeah, it's a pretty good quote from the movie. Seriously, rent Moneyball sometime. Great movie about how Billy Bean put the A's roster together based on simple #'s instead of talent. Even if you're not a fan of baseball, it's a great movie.

Next four games:

 

Detroit, @ Houston, vs Minnesota, vs Pittsburgh

 

This Titans team is terrible. They can't block, and as long as Locker is playing, defenses have no reason to respect the passing game. The Titans defense gets shredded, forcing the offense to abandon the run.

 

I bet his value can get lower. Right now people are still remembering the late first or early second they invested, and they're still set on weathering the storm, unless they get a good offer. But give me 6 straight games of sub-40 yards, and people will be trading away CJ for backup QBs and WR4s.

 

EDIT: I forgot to add Detroit next week.

[titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745]

Next three games:

 

@ Houston, vs Minnesota, vs Pittsburgh

 

This Titans team is terrible. They can't block, and as long as Locker is playing, defenses have no reason to respect the passing game. The Titans defense gets shredded, forcing the offense to abandon the run.

 

I bet his value can get lower. Give me 5 straight games of sub-40 yards, and you could see owners cutting CJ outright.

 

You missed a game. Next week, you get to see N. Suh blow through the Titans sh!t line and rape CJ in the Backfield. THEN its Houston's turn.

Agreed. Yes I took the quote out of context to make it relate to the CJ situation, but a great movie with great dialog and some even better quotes.

[GreenTD 56]

I bought a bag of ramen noodles to offer the CJ0K owner in my league, but I decided I was hungry instead. Honestly, I wouldn't even want this loser playing as a flex. There's better players on my 14-team waiver wire than that toad. Glad that I either had too early or late of a draft pick in all my leagues to select him. I honestly feel bad for his FF owners that have to suffer through reading his box score every Sunday.

[GreenTD 56]

His system kind of reminded me how fantasy football players research & put together a roster in some ways. Very interesting movie with a pretty good cast of actors.

[TheUsualSuspect 207]

I was trying to think of the right animal... But I"ll settle with cat poop. I feel like Chris Johnson will be on a "one-hit wonders" list that I will be watching on TV ten years from now and that I will have to tell my son (who does not exist right now) the story of CJ2K. And then my son will say something along the lines of... "Dad, I don't know about that fictional character you just made up but now that he has over 18,000 yards rushing, is Ray Rice the best running back of all-time?"
