Who would be your top FF WR on your board and how do you think others will fare this season. A few thoughts....

I really think Roy Williams can have a big year. He and Kitna have 1 year together under their belt and in Martz offense. And then with the addition of Calvin and they still have Furrey...

I wonder how big of a year Steve Smith will have. I know he was hurt last year, but the Panthers have lost some talent the last two years also.

From what Im reading, T.O. looks to have a big year. Dallas is really making him a focal point in their offense. Something he wasn't last year. They have him playing in differents spots and in the slot. Im leaning towards making giving him my #1 WR ranking.

Chad will be good, I just didn't like the inconsistancy from him last year. He had 2 REALLY huge games that made his stats ballon, but he started the year off horribly and in FF, Im looking for consistancy.

As far as consistancy, can't go wrong with Harrison or Wayne. Gonzo would be a nice sleeper pick playing the slot WR in the Colts offense(see Brandon Stokley a couple of years ago)

After Roy has not been a WR stud yet, you still have a hard on for him. Give me Larry Fitz over him any day.

I will again be taking a chance on Matt Jones. I will also take a chance on Cotchery

Roy has NOT been a fantasy stud yet?? Where were you last year, in last place or something? Roy was 4th in Recieving yards last year and at a few times last year was #1. Larry Fitz missed 3 games, but was still 24th in the league in Recieving yards. Not to mention Larry has had more recieving talent around him, something Roy will have this year.

Moss will have a big year. I have a feeling he is gonna be back to his old self when he was tearin it up with the Vikings. Plus he will be happy and motivated because he has a good QB and is on a team that has a good chance to win the Superbowl.

Mt reasoning isnt because I think Randy will be pissed off or not try hard, just that the Pats added so many recievers this year that I dont think he will get that many balls thrown to him

He is never consistent week to week, but go ahead and draft him in the first round, you wont see any complaints from me!!

I think Moss will be productive. A decent #2 WR, a very good #3 WR. But he won't be tearing up the league with 1600 and 17tds like it was 2003 again. But he is not going to be horrible like he was in Oakland. NE has alot of weapons in the passing game now and Brady is a distributor, and they have a good running game, so yes Moss will be productive, but like you said, he won't be getting many balls thrown his way. How many NE stud WR have we seen in the Brady era??? That should be your answer right there.

You can claim that, but thats not the truth. Besides we are talking about predicting next year. People screw up in FF because they try to predicate a players success based on "last year". If you want to do that then go ahead, you wont hear ANY complaints from a champion.

Actually, I was just looking at his game log, and it is kind of the truth.
He had 8 games under 80 yards, and in those games had 1 td. He only had 7 total, so I wouldnt say that those are stud numbers. He will get more tds next year I think, but I also think that his 1300 yards will go down a couple of hundred

The way they've imporved their offense, and with Martz second year running the offense there is no way his numbers drop a couple hundred!! Come on. I look for 1300+ and at least 11 tds. People should know Roy was double teamed alot last year, that is why Furrey had such huge numbers. Now with Furrey, Williams and Calvin, teams can't double him any more, the offense will open up and Roy will get his trust me.

I'd have to agree here. I had Roy last year and won some games with him. I expect him to put up Torry Holt type numbers now.

Wayne, T.J. Glenn and Boldin are pretty much the class of #2 WRs and put up better numbers than alot of teams #1's . On thing to look for is how good is the offense of the team a WR is on. For example Wayne is #2 on his team, but plays for a prolific offense, while Lee Evans is #1 on his team yet plays for Buffallo. You are going to want Wayne over Lee, for consistancy and just better fantasy numbers.

Take Anthony Gonzalez if he falls deep in the draft. He will be Peyton's new slot buddy. Those guys always rack up yards and TD's

I think Quinn needs to get his ass in camp. He was picked at 22 and wants top 10 money.

I wish the NFL was like the NBA in the respect that these guys(like Quinn, Russell) need to prove themselves before they get paid. Its a fucking joke to give a guy a 30 million signing bonus who has never proved himself in the NFL

You can look at it a couple ways
1) he is basically the only reciever on the team so he will have a huge year
2) he is the only reciever on the team so he will be shut down
3) The Browns don't have a QB to get him the ball
4) he is bound for a big year, and showed at times last year he is capable of it
5) he plays for the Browns so he will probably tear an ACL in training camp


all of these could actually come true. If I were being honest, I would take him in a later round as a 3-4 reciever if he is still around, assuming #5 doesn't come true (which is probably the most likely of all of them to actually happen). I would look at Winslow early though. I guess that guy is a freak in training camp even though he had surgury this off-season

O-Factor
08-02-2007, 01:07 PM
Im going to try my best to not draft Braylon. I don't want that headache of "what is he going to do this week?" I tend to try and draft guys who are already established in an offense. But the Browns need consistancy at QB for guys like Braylon or Winslow to be big fantasy contributors.

I like reason #2 and #3 the best. Damn, 3 years ago I thought Braylon would of been a stud by now, but O-Factor is right. No QB, no success.

If you are picking 10th in the first round, would you pick RB or a #1 ranked FF WR???? I am currently picking 10th in my league.

10th round? That decision is based on need.

Any more sleepers from people? I am in a Deep keeper league with 16 teams and 20 players each in an auction draft. Gonzo and Welker were a good start.

10th pick first round would be a good spot to pick the first WR or one of the top FF WR and then grab your first RB on the turn around in the second round.

Yeah, Moss being this good was a surprise. Glad I had him on my team. Hopefully he gets some TDs this week since I'm in the championship, but I'd rather it was Matt Cassell throwing them to him.
