Flgatorguy87 160 Posted August 6, 2014 I read the same quote. .. With which he said "1000 isn't my goal. . It's higher than that but it's MY personal goal that is on me. " Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Masterminds 5 Posted August 6, 2014 If he only plays one game this season, that is an impressive goal! Ha. If he plays 16 games, that's only 63 yards a game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted August 6, 2014 yea 1k is pitiful, I dont even consider an RB draftable until I believe he can potentially get 1200yds minimum and thats just rushing. I consider 1500 total my bare minimum for a startable rb. But like everything, this comment was twisted. He meant 1k minimum, obviously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Law 220 Posted August 7, 2014 So he wants to be the worse starting RB in the league this year..... 1,000 isn't shiit Only 13 RBs topped 1000 yards rushing last year. So, assuming there are 32 "starting" RBs in the league, are these 13 the only good ones and the other 19 are the worst? Stoopid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snatchit 108 Posted August 7, 2014 ok.... I guess because all the rbbc. but still even saying 1,000 or more sounds stoopid to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrG 94 Posted August 7, 2014 Based on his stats last year, I'll take any ambition. In a standard ppr leage 1 pt per reception, and 6 pts per td 1,000 rushing yards (1oo pts) and say 45 passes for 300 yards (75 pts) 6 tds rushing and 2 tds catching the rock (48 pts) Puts you at 233 pts minus say 4 fumbles at 2 pts per - leaves you with 225 pts. If he can do this in 15 games, you are getting 15 pts a game. Or in other words 17 carriers/67 rushing yards a game (3.9 yds a carry) + 3/20 receiving with a touchdown about every other week.... If you think he's a guy that actually will get a combined 20 touches a game, you might think about it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Law 220 Posted August 7, 2014 ok.... I guess because all the rbbc. but still even saying 1,000 or more sounds stoopid to me. I agree the 1000 yard barrier is really no barrier. It meant something when Jim Brown did it in 12 or 14 games. Other players too. But when they went to 16 games, now players only needed to average 62.5 yards a game, not 83 or even 71. But factor in the impact of the pass-happy league and all the RBBC and 1000 yards rushing from one player is still something. If little else, but the ability to stay healthy enough in a season to get it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kris-styles 0 Posted August 7, 2014 This is reasonable and would make him a rb2 in most ppr leagues but I would love him as my #3. As there is some risk here, mainly playing time. If he dips below 3.9 I can't see him getting 20 touches weekly even with their low options. His ADP is what makes it interesting. Based on his stats last year, I'll take any ambition. In a standard ppr leage 1 pt per reception, and 6 pts per td 1,000 rushing yards (1oo pts) and say 45 passes for 300 yards (75 pts) 6 tds rushing and 2 tds catching the rock (48 pts) Puts you at 233 pts minus say 4 fumbles at 2 pts per - leaves you with 225 pts.

beefcurtain 1 Posted August 9, 2014 He didn't say 1,000 yards is his goal. When you're a former No. 3 overall draft pick, as Richardson was in 2012, the bar tends to be a bit higher than a 563-yard season. Rest assured, Richardson's aiming high. Asked whether reaching 1,000 rushing yards is a goal, he responded, "A thousand is not the goal. For me, it's personal. I'm going to keep it to myself. But a thousand is not it for me. It's higher." http://www.indystar.com/story/sports/nfl/colts/2014/08/04/trent-richardson-goal-thousand-higher/13597717/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GobbleDog 822 Posted August 11, 2014 Richardson drafters picked him last year based mainly on all the receptions he got in CLE in '12. When he was traded to IND last year, it seemed like a great move. Instead his stats plummeted - receptions dropped to nothing and rushing yardage went in the tank. His rushing numbers will probably improve some - can't get any worse, but I don't see the receptions changing. That's not how IND/Luck play football. And RB's who don't get reception points are wildly inconsistent. I expect Trent to average 60 yds per game with an occasional TD every few weeks. Meaning most games he'll get whopping 5-6 points. To hell with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nothingman.pa 2 Posted August 12, 2014 Trent Richardsons ADP is between 21 and 28 in most places. I'd love him as my RB3 with some upside. Colts seem to have a genuine interest in making him successful based on the high pick they gave up for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

snatchit 108 Posted August 12, 2014 They were also debating the very quote I posted on NFLAM.... TRich is eyeing a 1,000 yards can he do it ? They all just shorten his quote from a 1,000 or more to just 1,000. You dudes need to relax, just having some fun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
