Re: Terrence Williams CONCUSSION bump Harris?

I don't get where you guys are getting the news that Dallas wants Williams to win the job. The way I've seen it...it was always Harris' job to lose. Dwayne Harris was already on the roster and the Cowboys still drafted Williams in round 3. Apparently they had him as the 27th player on their draft b...

Re: Greg Little

Little has done everything he can to improve like you said. Looking at the Browns receivers, obviously Gordon is the main guy but he's suspended a few games. Who else do they have? Davone Bess is their next best receiver. He's 5'10, under 200 lbs. He'll play the slot most likely. That leaves 6'2&quo...

Re: EJ Manuel: Are you still down on him?

And you say "40 yards and a TD every week". That's a LOT of rushing production. Over 16 games that's 640 yrds and 16 TDs. That isn't going to happen. He's big and athletic but he's not a running dual threat QB to my mind. I'm not saying that's going to happen every game. He's not going to...

Re: Austin Collie to 49ers

The guy never topped 60 yards OR 680 yards in a season while playing with Peyton Manning, one of the best regular-season qb's of all-time. The guy has a concussion history like Pac-Man has arrest history. Yet for some reason people view him as this must-grab ...bull. I dont want any part of Collie....

Re: Terrence Williams CONCUSSION bump Harris?

The Cowboys still want Williams to win the job longterm but if Harris can take this chance to play the first two preseason games as the WR3 (and maybe WR2 or even WR1 when Dez comes out and if they limit Austin's play time) then he could run away with the job for the short term. If Harris performs t...

Re: Stepfan Taylor

Taylor's physical profile was among the worst of the RBs in this draft. I'd say Ballard's numbers are probably Taylor's CEILING in this offense. I'm not saying he has got any more upside than that but if he can do what Ballard did then he's at least somewhat valuable, especially given his current m...

Re: EJ Manuel: Are you still down on him?

Logically, his physical profile. He'll get rushing yards and TDs which always raises the floor of your fantasy QB. If he becomes a competent passer, then you're looking at Newton/Kaepernick 2.0. Even if he rushes for 40 yards and a TD every week, he only needs 160 yards passing and 1 TD to be a QB1...

Stepfan Taylor

With all the news circulating about Mendenhall being sidelined with an injury and Ryan Williams being hurt 95% of the time, am I the only one who looks at Stepfan Taylor and sees Vick Ballard circa 2012? Both guys are similarly sized (Ballard is 5'10" and 215ish lbs, Taylor goes 5'9" and 2...

Re: EJ Manuel: Are you still down on him?

I'm intrigued and would buy in for a 2nd round rookie pick if I needed a backup that could develop into a starter. I think his ceiling is a Josh Freeman type, solid top 15-20 numbers with the right weapons. I actually think is floor is probably a Josh Freeman - 15-20 range - QB. His ceiling is much...

Re: EJ Manuel: Are you still down on him?

Given the very long list of former first round QBs who have not panned out (see Gabbert, Ponder, Locker, Tebow, Russell etc etc) I don't think you can necessarily put too much stock in a QB being picked in the first round. Teams without QBs, especially teams with rookie head coaches will reach on a...

Re: Gates trade... Should I pull the trigger?

That is a gift from the fantasy football gods. Gates is a rapidly declining force and has next to no value. Calling him a stopgap measure is being kind. a 3rd round pick is a lottery ticket. To trade that for a high first round pick is daylight robbery. You are VERY deficient at RB, so you should lo...

Re: Giovani Bernard

I don't see the Bengals bringing in someone else to shoulder a big part of the offense in 2014. Maybe a short yardage type but that is not where Gio is going to get his points anyway. I see this as more of a Spiller/FJax type thing. I'm not saying Gio is as talented as Spiller but they are using an ...
