How to prepare for your season/draft

[heisenburrr]

don't be so high on Bush, I follow the Dolphins inside and out cause it's my team and...

1. So far the o-line has looked horrible
2. This offense will not run the ball much
3. I have yet to see Bush line up at WR although I'm sure this'll happen
4. He'll get a lot of goal line touches stolen by FB & bigger backs we have like Thomas

This year I'm going to try something different and just do as many mocks as I can. I can't keep up with all this news.

Nothing changed from last season except the fact Tannehill is a better QB, so I'm not too worried. He's still a great value pick based on where he's being drafted. It isn't like he changed teams like Green-Ellis and went to a team that'll struggle to get him the 10 TDs he'll need to be fantasy relevant.

You dont like Green-Ellis? I'm trying to find value picks for RBs because I plan on spending anywhere between $85-$100 between Brees and Graham...help me out, I was thinking about Green-Ellis and Mcgahee because I doubt I'll find a back that gets receptions for a decent price..

I'm from New England. I'm a huge Pats fan. Green-Ellis just worked very well in that offense. He got a lot of garbage yards with them running the clock down and a lot of goal line opportunities because of his offense. I highly doubt he'll come close to scoring 10 TDs with the Bengals. He's being drafted at his ceiling, which is never a good way to draft. There is no way he'll outproduce his draft value.

I believe if McGahee stays healthy, he'll outproduce his draft value by a lot. He'll be in a completely different offense and Peyton will open some things up for him. I like a guy like McGahee because I think his ceiling could be much higher.

what other cheap RBs do u like?

 

[Sly Cookin]

Peyton hillis is a good one, he should get 18 carries a game...Charles usually averages 15 carries

I do like Hillis. He could have huge upside if Charles gets hurt. Reggie Bush as well. Proved last year he can stay healthy and wants an increased workload in an offense that'll rely on him. McGahee as stated. Shonn Greene if the Jets truly rely on him. I don't think Tebow will take too many touches from him because I really doubt the Jets will ever throw in the redzone. Steven Ridley- he should put up numbers not too far off from Green-Ellis if he doesn't fumble. If he doesn't fumble he could be huge this year. I assume he has his struggles at times but still puts up numbers. I'd take a flier on Kendall Hunter now that Jacobs will miss time. He could find enough touches to make an impact as a flex option now and if Gore goes down its icing. Beanie Wells, his value keeps plummeting but he struggled with injuries last year and still put up great numbers. I feel like even if Williams takes away a lot of touches, Beanie will still outproduce his current draft position.

Is Hillis really gonna get more carries than Charles?

Damn, your first draft is crazy how long you waited to draft a WR. You have great RB depth on that team, I like Forte, Jackson, McGahee. I think Vick and Ryan will do well, so you should be ok there.

Your second draft, I like all the picks 5th round and on.

 

[Sly Cookin]

Is Hillis really gonna get more carries than Charles?

I'd say charles gets more touches overall with screens and receptions, but they are gonna monitor his knee so he's healthy for the playoffs...plus he won't have to be a work horse with hillis there.

 

[NamelessPimp]

Hillis is even predicted to get touches in the passing game. They are really going to baby Charles.

how'd it come out?

Just finished it. I edited it about three times. I'll send it to your PM.
