Staying away from Greg Jennings this year. J-Mike + crowded WR group reduces his value big time, imo. _________________

I don't think that Jennings value is really significantly reduced as he's still the #1 receiver. However, I think that between Jennings and Finley that the value of Jones, Nelson, and Driver are VASTLY reduced. I think that Jennings and Finley are both great options at this point. _________________

When I see a person take Gates I think I jump and make the Finley pick
I don't see them having that different of stats this year
I think Finley>>>Greg>>>>>>>>>>the rest
At least right now
The other 3 are crap shots _________________ [quote="TytybearsFan21"]Drive off into the sunset, you brilliant bastard.[/quote] |

I just made a trade to get Grant because I am really weak at RB. I traded Dez Bryant for him considering I already had Fitz and Andre. I picked up Starks last year because all of my RB's were either hurt or not producing. That being said we have a 6 keeper league (don't even get started with wow that is a lot of keepers because I have already pleaded with the Comiss without any luck). So I was wondering what the consensus was on who to keep. I think that Grant will be the starter come week one, but if I keep him and he doesn't start I just wasted a keeper. Then again the same could be said the other way. _________________

1 Madden curse
2 Hardesty coming back from injury, would have split carries with him if he didn't go down preseason week 1 with an ACL. Damn Bears
3 Brandon Jackson gonna get 3rd downs
4 Peyton wore out at the end of last year _________________ [quote="TytybearsFan21"]Drive off into the sunset, you brilliant bastard.[/quote] |

I had him in my huge dynasty league with 10 keepers
I ended up trading him when people still thought he was hot and moved up a couple spots to pick up JFinley
Worth it IMO
Wouldn't surprise me if he got hurt or falls off the map this year
Doesn't even have to do with the madden curse thing he just looked really different at the end of the year than he did in the beginning of the year
He had too big of a work load _________________ [quote="TytybearsFan21"]Drive off into the sunset, you brilliant bastard.[/quote] |

I thought my RB's weren't too bad. I think Mendenhall is gonna be a beast this year and Shon Green should be getting most of the carries in New York. Green-Ellis is a wildcard but he did have 13 tds last year. And Addai was there for my last pick, i'm just hoping for the best from him _________________
