I was college buddies with one of FSU's strength coaches and he said himself that he thinks JW is a douche and doesn't like him? Given all the problems JW had while at FSU and the persona he had while in Tallahassee I would think quite a few people would think he's a douche also. My "source" directly knows JW, knows him very well and is unbiased towards him, I would say that's a pretty good source of any...
Right, but you also have to weigh that with what others think/have said of him. The opinion of one person doesn't negate the opinion of many.
I'm sure you're a nice guy in general (and I mean that sincerely). However, if I were to talk to someone that knew you personally that had a bad experience of you, would it be wise of me to base my opinion off of what that other person said--even though I've never actually interacted with you outside of dynasty football discussion?
I've never met winston. Neither have you. I know lots of people that studied him for the 3 years he was at FSU. You know one person that interacted with him. You have a better, more direct source, but it's really unwise to paint JW with a broad brush by using that one source as your main argument against him.
And lastly... what does Winston being a douche have to do with his fantasy football performance? Are we devaluing guys because they're jerks? If so, there's a lot of players we should be talking about...
I completely agree with what you mean, but I'd take my buddy's opinion over him that what some sports reporter or scout would know because they don't get the unfiltered version of JW, they got the "all business" version of him. My buddy spent every day with JW for 4 years, he's gonna know the good and the bad.
I didn't say it has to do with his fantasy relevance, I was just adding on to what someone else has said. I think it's wayyy to early to start moving players based on 10 NFL games, remember RG3? Lol
FWIW, I think Dez is a huuuuge idiot (or at least 2 years ago before he matured a LITTLE*) and I can't stand OBJ but I don't value them any less because of it, I just cheer extra hard against them lol
