Guest kariya9 Posted June 19, 2001 I agree that Emmitt was the best back on the board at that point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest stick Posted June 19, 2001 One thing I think that has been overlooked, and since all the rbs that this would truly affect are gone, I'll go ahead and point it out. RBs like Faulk Edge Duce and Tiki could be huge in this league with the 1 point per reception rule. Edge could get 10 catches a game easy IMO. ~stick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This could get ugly.... Whoa there partner. I've got my own personal swollen brat for Moulds. He was easily the best WR left in a league where the best ones score like RBs. The only factor here is there might have been a small chance I may have be willing to try to get him on the rebound if anyone but you had 2 picks in front of me. However, all things considered, there was only 1 WR on the teams in front of me, and all but 1 team had at least one back. There were 6 RBs I viewed pretty closely and 7 open RB slots in front of me. It made sense for me to get the WR I wanted with that pick anyway. Besides, everyone knows you are a Bills homer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Damn yourself bbb Actually, it remotely helps strengthen your strategy. Still not one I'd espouse, but it looks like there is a lot of RBBCs out there and if you lock into this years Richie Anderson, he can be more valuable than some of the RBs left who will have a lot of 50 yard, no TD days.

Guest ulick Posted June 20, 2001 Damn, those RBs are about picked clean. Looks like RBBC time- and nothing worth spending a third rounder on. Though I was this close to reaching, just so I'd know I had 2 RBs... What the hell, if I can't have a top-ten RB, then I might as well have 2 top-ten WRs (at least I had Horn at 10). Probably should have gone QB, but there's still quite a bit out there. I'll definitely second-guess myself on this pick- in fact, I already am. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Though I am in desperate need of another rb, Joe Horn is someone that I wouldn't have been able to pass up either. Pair him with Moss, with receptions 1 pt apiece, and you'll outscore some rb combos.

Guest Scooby Posted June 20, 2001 Damn Ulick took my pick... May be a reach with Boston, but he put up solid numbers last year and should only get better...I hope.

Guest BroncosFan Posted June 20, 2001 I had my eyes set on Horn but that didn't work out. This was a tough pick for me because 1. I'm not a Tim Brown fan 2. There are other guys with more talent and potential but they have too many question marks 3. I hate the Raiders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest t.j Posted June 20, 2001 In round 1 I was sweating out the last several choices that Curtis Martin would be stolen from me. This round was the same with Wheatley. I am stoked he dropped to me for a couple reasons: 1. His job security is more defined than any back left in the draft. He is the Raiders' starter. And the Raiders will run the ball and score touchdowns. 2. He will be the Raiders goal-line guy. If there's one thing about the Raiders' RBBC it's that Garner won't practice in goal-line situations and therefore he will never play in them. 3. He has potential to increase his production from last year. First off he only played 13.5 games last year. Secondly, the Raiders blew so many teams out last season that Wheatley often would come out and Crockett would come in. Last year Crockett and Jordan combined for 10 rushing touchdowns. I think whatever extra Garner takes away between the 20s, Wheatley will play that much more inside the 20s. Especially since the Raiders' home schedule is tougher and they don't figure to have the luxury of keeping him healthy on the sidelines in the second half of a lot of blowouts like last year. 4. If there's one thing I maybe know better about Wheatley than you guys do as a Raiders fan, it's that he is one of the toughest motherf***ers in the league and he will play unless he literally cannot run. 5. If Garner gets hurt he will carry even more of the load. P.S. I think Boston was a better pick than Horn [This message has been edited by t.j (edited 06-20-2001).] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If either went down with an injury, the other would have a dominating FF season though. That said, I took Garner because of his receiving ability more than anything. Wheatley is a great, tough player, but his numbers should go down since Garner is heads above what Kaufman gave to the Raydazz offense. Once they realize this, they won't sit Garner all the time like they had to do to Kaufman. They didn't pay Garner all that money to sit on the bench anyways... I think both will have a fine season. I'd be psyched to be a Raydazz fan. (I'm sure I was spelling Kaufman wrong here) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
