top 12 players

[M_Zimm_ffc]

Now this is only my opinion, but believe me; I know what I'm talking about:

1. Doug Johnson
2. Stacey Mack
3. Kordell Stewart
4. Neil O'Donnel
5. Rodney Peete
6. Emmit Smith
7. Dorsey Levens
8. Ki-Jana Carter
9. Bill Schroeder
10.Chris Doering
11.Bill Gramatica
12.Chris Fuama-am-s-sfi-jfsd-fala

That is the definitive list. My first 12 picks on my cheat sheet are finished! Whoohoo!

I'll just say that I think that Vick is way overrated. Yes, there's potential there, but until he passes for 3,000 yards and rushes for 1,000, there's no way I'd waste a high draft pick for him. Right now he belongs in the fourth with all of the other non-superstuds. Not ranked along with Culpepper and Manning, like I've seen him be drafted.

Here's a box score for his game against the Colts.

6 for 19 passing, 47 yards. 0 TDs, 1 INT.
4 rushes for 30 yards. 1 FUM, 1 FUML. 0 TDs.

That was one week after his game against the Panthers which he put up some good numbers. Every game after Carolina was sub-par at best. Nothing spectacular and non-existant consistancy.

Carolina Stats:

16 for 33 passing, 179 yards. 0 TDs, 1 INT.
14 rushes for 141 yards. 1 FUM, 0 FUML. 1 TD.

I realize he was coming off of an injury, but even his first season as a starter wasn't that impressive, IMO.

I completely agree but living near Atlanta it is very hard to voice my opinion on this...

A few things about Mr. Vick.

1. He rushed for 585 yards in his 6 games back in 2003.
2. 100 rushing yards usually = 250 passing yards.
3. 2 rushing TDs usually = 3 passing TDs.
4. He finished 3rd in 2002.

It's easy to point out a bad game and say "see this is why he isn't worth it"

Look at this.

Week 01: 211 Yards 2 INTs
Week 12: 229 Yards
Week 14: 228 Yards
Week 16: 146 Yards

Those 4 statistically poor games belong to Peyton Manning.

Everyone has good games, everyone has bad games. This isn't a debate about NFL QB worthiness, it's about statistics which dominate fantasy football. Statistically, Vick is worth as high a pick as Culpepper and Manning.

Holmes
LT
Portis
Green
Lewis
Alexander
McAllister
Ricky
Moss
Edge
Holt
Faulk

Barlow makes this list if Hearst is shipped out of town before the draft. I wouldn't take any QBs until late 3rd round at the earliest (and then only CPepp, Vick and Manning). If Bulger isn't the Rams starter, Holt drops.

See, I do disagree with you.....I don't think that any QB belongs in the top 12.

A few things.

2002, Gannon and Culpepper were "worth" picks 1.10 & 1.12 respectively.

2003, Culpepper and Manning were "worth" picks 1.10 & 1.11 respectively. Most seasons there are probably 1 or 2 QBs "worth" picking at the end of round 1.

The first round cheat sheet I released isn't exactly where I think they deserve to be. It's a combination of my predictions and where I think they will be drafted. By the time pre-season is in full swing, I expect Vick's value to be in the late first round range. If you don't draft him then, you probably aren't getting him. He may well be worth it and then some if he lives up to the fantasy hype. Personally, I'm hoping his value stays supressed so I can grab him in the 3rd or late 2nd if possible.

Not when guys like Trent Green and Kitna are consistently available in the late rounds.
