TBayXXXVII 2,116 Posted August 6, 2019 System seems strange to me... and, I don't know, make shift - is that the right phrase? Look, I'm not huge fan of Jameis Winston, in fact, I almost hope that the Bucs win only 5 games so that they move on from him in the off-season. I don't think anyone here would argue that Winston is a mediocre to bad QB, but for fantasy purposes, he's likely to be great. Just look at last year. He played in 11 games (technically only 10 because he only played in 40 Q's), and averaged about 300 yards and 2 TD's a game... with being thrown into the fire after a limited off-season. Yeah, I know he's going to throw a lot of Int's because he's not a good QB, but the volume will be there with Bruce Arians. This team, with below average RB's will throw the ball about 600 times. If we assume the Bucs throw the ball 600 times, that's 37.5 attempts per game. Assuming he plays to his average 7.6 y/a, that'll put him at 285 yards per game which is 4500 yards. That's if he has an "average" season. Average will also put him at 28 TD (considering 4.6% TD on 600 attempts). Last year, only 5 QB's threw for at least 4500 yards and 28 TD's (to note, 4 of the 5 threw at least 12 Int's), and one could argue that all 5 have good to great HC's. In these rankings, no QB has 2 WR's in the top 15 AND a top 5 TE, except for Winston. Just for comparison purposes, Carson Wentz is ranked 4th and has a top 5 TE and 2 WR's outside the top 30. Evans, Godwin, and Howard have a total SSI of 253.9 while Ertz, Jeffrey, and Jackson are at 137.7. I don't see how Wentz can have an SSI of 44 and Winston a 2. Last year, the Bucs threw the ball 625 times and the Eagles 599. With the acquisition of Howard and drafting of Sanders... plus Wentz's injury history, do you really think the Eagles are going to throw the ball that many times this year? I don't. With no upgrade at RB in Tampa, do you think the Bucs are going to throw much less than they did last year? I don't. In an NFL draft, I'm taking Wentz many many rounds ahead of Winston. In a fantasy, I'm taking Winston as a top 5 QB and Wentz as a QB2. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, I assure there is nothing makeshift about the process or the Big Board. For example, it appears you are assuming that I'm assuming JW will play all 16 games and/or hit all of his last year's efficiency marks. Ditto for Wentz. I am basing almost everything off my target/carry/efficiency projections. I think with a restocked shelf of weapons, Wentz will play at an MVP level this season. I also think Tampa averages at least 1-2 more run plays this season and won't jack it up 625 times again. SSI is a value metric that helps me compare apples and oranges. Don't read into it much more than that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't read into it much more than that. Yeah, I didn't want to imply that the board or process was junk, I really didn't have a word at the time to describe it. With more time, I think enigmatic is a better word. I don't really see any reason why Winston wouldn't play all 16 games. He did in his first 2 years and had it not been for the suspension last year, he most likely would've played all 16 last year too. I don't see a suspension coming for this season. Wentz has been injured each of his last 4 seasons (including his last year at ND), and missed games in 3 of them. He's much more likely to not play all 16 that Winston is. Also, I didn't really use any metrics for Winston that weren't reasonable. Tampa didn't upgrade their OLine or their backfield. Their defense, until further notice, I fully expect to be in the bottom tier again. Also, Winston is a turnover machine, so I do expect him to turn the ball over about 15+ times (between fumbles and INT's), and will contribute to the Bucs' defensive demise. That said, while Winston is not all that good of a QB, he is talented. The 600 attempts to me seems reasonable when you consider the number of consecutive non-Tampa games, the tough schedule, and the lack of overall talent on the defense. The y/a number I used was his career average which is lower than the last 2 seasons and the TD% I used would be lower than last year as well as his 3rd best, so it's not like I used career highs to estimate his production. I can actually see the Bucs running the ball less this year. To note, my 600 attempts estimation was just a random number. If you take the number of pass attempts that Winston has in his career (1922), and divide that by the number of starts (54 - because there a handful of games where he did not play 4 Q's), that projects to 570 attempts over 16 games. Last year, the Bucs threw the ball 625 times, Winston projects to 570 in a season... the midpoint of those two numbers is 597, so I rounded up. Even if you go with 570, that's still a 4300 yard season. If you're assuming that Winston won't play all 16 games, then that's fine, but I really don't see that as likely since the Bucs are really going to push for Winston to have a big year because they don't want to be proven wrong about picking him - though I don't think they'll be able to. I don't really see this team being much better than 5-11 or 6-10, but to me, that means a lot of throwing. Overall, I thought the whole thing was pretty good. This was just something that popped out to me as odd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spec7ral 6 Posted August 7, 2019 Jameis Winston is as close to eating an L and getting lol'ed out of the league as he is to winning you a fantasy championship. Because he is a Turd in an RL draft means he could turn into a pumpkin in fantasy. Meanwhile, Matt Stafford has thrown for over 4k yards most years, is still in primo years, has two of the most exciting young weapons in football and a healthy Marvin Jones this year. He has zero chance of loling out of league, they will probably not be out to any big leads and Kerryon can't make that offensive a top 5 rushing O. Adrian's is also smart enough to know he doesn't need to latch his new coaching gig to a sinking QB. Drafting a new one next year after cutting bait would buy him a couple more years. *Disclaimer: I recently traded Winston for Stafford and a 2nd rounder because I value security over hype.

Not counting the game he didn't start, Winston averaged over 20 ppg last year and in standard leagues ranked in the top 8 in average. So yes, while he is a crappy NFL QB, he's a good fantasy QB.

No, Jason Licht needs Winston to play all 16 games or both of them are going to be looking for new jobs. The ONLY way Winston gets pulled is if he's throwing a TON of Int's. Wins/Losses don't matter. The only reason why Winston was even pulled last year was because Koetter was coaching for his job. Had Fitzpatrick come back in and won games and the Bucs finished with 9+ wins, Koetter is the HC, Fitzpatrick is the starter, Winston would be gone, and the Bucs may have drafted a QB back in April. Something else to consider is that Fitzpatrick got all of the work with the 1's last off-season and hit the ground running. Winston came in after being away for a month. That's not going to happen this year. Winston will dominate the reps with Gabbert and Griffin getting almost nothing. With Arians, the Bucs will put up big numbers. Wins are questionable, but the numbers aren't. If I were the GM, I'd have never brought Winston back for this year and drafted his replacement. Jason Licht has to believe in Winston because his job depends on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I can't argue with that. My true number 1 is David Johnson. He is going to be on a very good offense this year as the main carry guy, and the offense should be able to use his excellent receiving ability much better than last year. I fear a little sniping from Murray near the goal line, but they should have quite a few more chances. If I didn't already have a lot of shares of Johnson I would take him. You have convinced me on Barkley because of touches, and because my league awards 3 bonus points for 50 yard touch downs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I made the argument on Twitter during Scott Fish Bowl in July about my surprise that DJ wasn't being discussed at No.1 along with the other top four backs. I agree Kyler will probably vulture a few shorties, and I wonder just how many carries DJ will see in general. (I have him at 226 at the moment and Kyler at 114.) Even with minimal contributions from other players, the team carry total gets to 425 pretty quickly. My other concern is just how much drop-off DJ will experience if Kyler gets hurt. With as much as I expect the rookie to run and at his size, I do expect him to miss at least a game or two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DrG 94 Posted August 14, 2019 Looking at the talent label around Barkley (or lack thereof) he will be force fed the ball. so much of Kamara’s game is speed and Brees has more talent to spread it around.

I don't think we're talking league-winning stuff from him either way, although I do think he has Crowder-like upside.
