TOO HIGH: MJD

TOO LOW: MCGAHEE

[WickedSmaat]

So where's Chester Taylor?

I REALLY DON'T LIKE THIS. 27. Thomas Jones 1130 8 35/205 0. Personally, I think he will be a steal as a
RB2, I know I've been targeting him.

That makes two of us. I really am trying to target T.Jones, Ronnie Brown and McGahee. I would be very happy with 2 of the 3.

I can see where you guys are coming from here, b/c Thomas Jones has the potential to be 19 or 20, and 27 may be a bit too low, but I don't think my projected stats are too far off. The reason some guys are high (for instance--Maurice Drew) is b/c I play in a PPR (pts per reception) league. So guys like Drew, Bush, Jackson, & Cadillac are premium guys in my league. If this were not a PPR league, I might have Jones a bit higher.

[Azrael]

I don't see Larry Johnson or Shaun Alexander touching 20TDs this year. They're offenses got no better in the off season. KC lost Shields and Black. Weigmann and Waters are the only credible pieces of that O-line left. They are putting their faith in Damon Huard at QB and he still only has Tony Gonzalez to throw to. Alexander's offense is no better than it was either. They lose Jackson and Stevens. Will Tobeck be healthy? I'm not touching either one of these guys for where they are getting drafted. I dread getting the 3 or 4 spot in a redraft because I don't want to feel compelled to take them. I'd rather trade down.

First of all, Caddy is a terrible receiving back so I have no idea why you would target Caddy more in a PPR league....he's got Pittman taking all his receptions being by far the superior receiving back. Thomas Jones has the potential to be top 15 to top 10 this year I think, not just 19-20....the Jets have a pretty good and improving offensive line along with a solid passing game that was their strength last year. The only reason they split carries last year was because they didn't have a RB talented enough to deserve all of them....now they do. The Jets were 7th in the NFL in rushing attempts last year averaging 30.7 attempts per game, I would expect Jones to receive no less than 20 of those and at just 4 ypc (which I think he'll have a higher ypc than that), he would end up with 1280 yds rushing. I think you're sorely underestimating his numbers for next year.

[ivesaidway2much]

I think your reception numbers for Brandon Jacobs are too low. Last year in part time duty he had 11 receptions for 149 yards. Barring injury, I don't see how he gets any less than 25-30 receptions. I mean, there's no way the Giants are only going to have 30 receptions by their RB's over the course of an entire season.

[ROYALWITCHEESE]

SJack outgains LT and LJ???? No way. He will get less touches this year, not more...
