I don't have any of the 3, but I'd take Beanie Wells over either of the M&M boys.

I don't think Wells is a top-15 dynasty back at this point, but has tremendous upside

He has it all and is THE complete back a la Steven Jackson and Deangelo Williams. Just look at the 2nd half of this season as a good starting point. You guys know I've always been a buy-low Mendy guy and I think he's the best back in that class.

You could do worse, though...Moreno is a top-10 guy.
I think him and JStew are comparable, and I've been helping drive the Mendenhall bandwagon since he was drafted. Patience paid off for those who waited. People who sold him low or declined to trade for him if they could should be kicking themselves. Skip might never come around on Mendenhall, but I think he hates Mendenhall less than Roy Williams at least... :roll: :lol:
pretty sure i think both are studs. and i drafted both at 1.1, and 1.2 respectively in their drafts... im just sayin.

Wow, that is bold. I have all three in my league #2, and so far Mendenhall impresses me the most, but he has disappeared in games too. I am hopeful that Wells is the real deal in Arizona, but he has looked softer than I thought he would be. Moreno may never be a top RB, but I think he could be solid for years to come.

JStew is an elite talent with the size of a 235 pounder and moves like a 200 pounder. Mendenhall is nowhere near JStews league my friend.

To qoute my good friend Spencer..."just sayin".

I agree with this assesment. If I had to rank them (I'll include the other names included):
Jonathan Stewart
Beanie Wells
Knowshon Moreno
Rashard Mendenhall

Wow!

On almost every current dynasty list I see Mendenhall is in the top 12. Yet, he's not getting a lot of love here.

Footballguys.com has him #11

Here he's #9: http://dynastyrankings.blogspot.com/sea ... 20Rankings

Here's another one at #9: http://www.fftoolbox.com/football/2010/ ... cfm?pos=RB

Here he's #8: http://www.associatedcontent.com/articl ... tml?cat=14

I'm "just sayin"

:wink:

Spencer has started a revolution. :lol:

Regarding the rankings...we like to think outside of the box here at DLF. The other sites spit out the typical, "Matthew Berry" rankings. People come here for a fresh, bold outlook on Fantasy Football.

Where can you find owners like Vince other then this site?!?!?

Just sayin'.

I believe I actually started this "revolution" :lol: ....just sayin....but I stopped after a little bit.

and did Nate just give me some props? I think I stared at this post for 5 minutes trying to convince myself there was a cheap shot here somewhere. :wink:

Happy New Years to all!

Because the bulk of what you get year in and year out on fantasy web sites is the regurgitation of what you see on the rest. Very few original thoughts, just the same tired opinions over and over. We may have a variety of opinions on this board - but the bulk of those opinions are based on what we see on the football field and not on what we are reading on the internet.

Yep, and it's, "When I grow up I want to be just like you Mendy!"

In all seriousness they are very close IMO.
