kilroy69 994 Posted August 4, 2014 Stafford. Last year he averaged 12.5 yards per catch on his passes. His wideouts led the league with 44 dropped passes. His new security blanket in Golden Tate has dropped less passes in 3 years at 5 than stafford gets in just 2 games. @ 12.5 extra yards per catch x 44 catches he would have put up an extra 550 yards which would have put him at his highest yardage total of his career. 5,200 yards. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted August 4, 2014 Pretty much all of my targets are climbing besides qbs, which reduces their true value. Kind of sucks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have stafford he's 1 of the 5 guys I'm keeping. Whoop whoop. Have had him 3 years and I absolutely love him. He got Tate and huge TE Target. He only got better weapons. Love him this year.

WooFantasyFootball 0 Posted August 4, 2014 I love Keenan Allen but he's over valued. I have him as a keeper in the 12th. That's great value but I wouldn't take him in the 3rd. I want to target an elite QB. Also, want to store away as many RB's as possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kilroy69 994 Posted August 4, 2014 based on a breakout rookie year and a rebound year for his qb. Now that he is known and rivers will come back to be the shittty qb we all know he is more of a 10th round pick in my view. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MDC 5,892 Posted August 4, 2014 I'm seriously thinking about Andre Ellington in the late 2nd (24 overall) of my 14-teamer. I'd really like to land Terrance Williams as a 3rd WR and DeAndre Hopkins late. I think Matt Ryan is a fantastic buy low candidate after the terrible season he had. McFadden is available much later than he should be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WooFantasyFootball 0 Posted August 4, 2014 I fair value in Allen at 5th rd. Even if Rivers regresses, Allen is the only show in town who isn't hurt or a grandpa. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Upper Class Trash 67 Posted August 4, 2014 I'm seriously thinking about Andre Ellington in the late 2nd (24 overall) of my 14-teamer. I'd really like to land Terrance Williams as a 3rd WR and DeAndre Hopkins late. I think Matt Ryan is a fantastic buy low candidate after the terrible season he had. McFadden is available much later than he should be. Since McFadden is going so late, this will be the year he breaks out for 1,500 yards and 50 receptions. He will do this to spite all the fantasy owners who have taken him in the first three rounds over the last 7 years. When he gets drafted in the first again next season, he'll pull a hammy and miss 75% of the season. This is McFadden's world. We all just live in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kent 228 Posted August 4, 2014 Cordarelle Patterson. His upside is off the charts and I think the adp still makes him a bargain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think MJD is done and according to walterfootball, McF changed up his offseason workout regimen and is in terrific shape. I don't think he's going to have a breakout year by any stretch but DMF is going in the 8th or later in 14-team mocks and this seems way to late to me for a guy who at lowest should be a decent RB3 with RB2 upside.

Djgb13 2,338 Posted August 4, 2014 Agree on McFadden. Yea I'm not taking him until the later rounds but I am targeting him. The one player that I have to have is Spiller. Love watching him play and my league adds points for TDs over 40 and 50 yards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Love watching him play and my league adds points for TDs over 40 and 50 yards. Ellington may have a better chance of being CJ Spiller than Spiller. Id def get Spiller if the value is right tho. Id prefer him to be my RB3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thesitedoc 5 Posted August 4, 2014 I'm all about value when I draft and try to avoid reaching, but I have a feeling that Cutler, TY Hilton and Roddy White could be great value and a may reach just a little hoping for bigger upside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bobbyn2022 53 Posted August 4, 2014 Nice list guys keep it going. spiller and McFadden are huge boom or bust guys. Spiller killed me last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fantasymind 1 Posted August 4, 2014 I'd like to get Antonio Brown and may reach in my ppr...also love the upside of cooks on New Orleans and will reach for him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dreen626 17 Posted August 4, 2014 Players I want...Dez Bryant, Antonio. Brown, B.Cooks, J.Bell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mack 1 6 Posted August 5, 2014 I like Matt Ryan this year. Relatedly, Julio Jones should be a monster as well. Coming off that foot injury may drop him a couple picks, but I think he will dominate. Also, somebody's gotta catch some of the passes that went to Gonzalez. Also, I read/heard somewhere recently that Brandin Cooks has been destroying d-backs in Saints camp.

Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted August 5, 2014 Everyone and their mom and their moms mom is going to be over drafting cooks. Lets do everyone a favor and kill any value he has this year. Just take a massive dump on his value and draft him in the 4th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cnasty 5 Posted August 5, 2014 Ellington may have a better chance of being CJ Spiller than Spiller. Id def get Spiller if the value is right tho. Id prefer him to be my RB3. Ellington has 6 games in the NFCW. Spiller has 6 games in the AFCE. SoS favors Spiller, IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted August 5, 2014 An important bit of news is jordan matthews listed as the 4th receiver right now. I think cooper is still in a walking boot so he has a shot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teeoh 0 Posted August 5, 2014 he gets enough touches and goal line work to be my flex which warrants taking both him and bush. he becomes a rb 2 if bush goes down. am I off base here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kilroy69 994 Posted August 5, 2014 I would say bell is worth the price. Bush WILL get hurt and when he does bell becomes an every down back. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ray rice, chris johnson, ben tate all went after bell and they are all starters. At the right price i will draft him, the price is too much right now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teeoh 0 Posted August 5, 2014 I'd rather have Johnson but rice is gonna sit out those 2 games and watch his job vanish. I like pierce a lot. as for tate he couldn't stay healthy as a backup time share guy so I am not touching him. but I get what ur overall point is and agree that one can do better at the slot in which joique is being drafted Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted August 5, 2014 all facts. what do u make of gerhart this year? I like him a lot. His adp is early 4th which kind of sucks because i have been targeting him every draft. Hopefully his hip flexor injury brings his adp back down a little. The best thing that can happen is he doesnt play in the first pre season game. Its funny because there has been a good amount of debate about him here. There are more than a few people who have said he is a dnd for them, but he hasnt gone past 4.4 in my last 5 drafts. He has solid speed, great size, and should get a ton of volume, including catches. He is safer than guys like ellington imo who is in a really tough div and isnt a big back. Plus if you look at jax sched it really is pretty favorable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ravens are playing their first two games at home against Cinci and Pittsburgh. He was 17/66/0 last year against those two at home. And he had a 2.9 ypc for the season...

giraldi02 470 Posted August 5, 2014 An important bit of news is jordan matthews listed as the 4th receiver right now. I think cooper is still in a walking boot so he has a shot. Matthews is going to start for sure. Brad Smith might be ahead of him temporarily, but its only a matter of time, particularly if he keeps dominating the 2nd team. I fully agree that he could be a great bargain in the early drafts...but I'm weary that his ADP is going to skyrocket if he has a good preseason game or two Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bobbyn2022 53 Posted August 5, 2014 Anyone hot on verren? Last year there was a Ton of hype. He did get hurt. I also think Brady is being a little under valued. He didn't have gronk or verren and Amendola for most if the year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
