So as long as your 3rd round pick gets you 500 total yards and 1 td, you are fine with that output? Not sure I understand that logic, but if you are fine with it you are fine with it. I, on the other hand, expect my 3rd round pick to put up much more stats than that.
that's crazy. i expect my 3rd round pick to average at least 17 points a game (really more than that). For example, my third round pick this year is Gio Bernard. Hell, there are players on the waiver wire that you can pick up getting 10 points a game.
Aside from Ahmad Bradshaw, who else from the waiver wire do you project to average 10 fpts per game? Don't count guys like Rainey who benefited from injuries to starters.
The point is that if you can fine guys that weren't even drafted that get you 10 points a game, whether they benefited from an injury or not, your 3rd round pick was a bust, they are in theory a top 30 pick that is no better than a top 150 player. I'm not sure where your logic runs here.
If you're able to consistently find RB's on the waiver wire who average 10 fpts/game, then you must be a very skilled fantasy football player....certainly much more skilled than myself.
However, if you aren't able to find a 3rd round player that can average more than 10 points a game, you aren't a very good fantasy football talent drafter .
154.5 yards averaged and 5 TDs on the ground against the Falcons D so far... I don't know about you guys but with Martin being inactive and considering the fact that Rainey gainied 144 yards on 22 carries against a pretty good Rams Defense this weekend.... I'd absolutely put my money on Rainey tonight. Which is literally what I'm doing in my money league.
How would you rank the following: Rainey (vs Atl) Ahmad Bradshaw (vs Jax) Pierre Thomas (vs Min) Bernard Pierce (vs Cle) Ridley (vs Oak) Trent Richardson (vs Jax) Donald Brown (vs Buf)
With Roddy White out, how would you guys rank Harry Douglas vs Tampa Emmanuel Sanders vs Seattle Kendall Wright vs Cin Anquan Boldin vs Arizona Andrew Hawkins vs Baltimore Torrey Smith vs Cle Mohamed Sanu vs Ten
I'd probably rate them: If I had those choices I'd probably play Bradshaw and either Rainey or Thomas. But I don't think any of those guys are really #1 options. They are more likely low end 2's.
I like the team with Rodgers better. Romo/Brady look bad this year. Basically Team 2 has Rodgers and Nelson, but no Lynch. Those guys are worth the downgrade from Lynch to PThomas.
Yeah, I accepted the trade and ended up with Team 2. I'll have to stream my RB2 based on matchups. Thanks.
I did something incredibly stupid. I benched Matt Ryan literally 2 min before this game because I heard Roddy was out. Picked up Cousins and Russell Wilson is on my bench. Who gets the start Sunday? Wilson (vs Den) or Cousins (vs Phi)? Will rep.
