As has been stated above, I came by these rankings by my own projections and then plugging the projections into a set formula.
Football Newbie:
There, as you can see above you can see Pennington is No. 17 on my list. I have him projected for 20 passing TD's, 7 projected 200 yard games, 1 rushing TD, 24 total rushing yards.
Yes, he had that wrist injury the first part of the season but when he came back from it he was HOT, throwing 9 TD passes in his first 3 starts back from the injury. However, he just fell apart down the stretch, throwing only one TD (with 6 ints....eww) in his final 4 games. I'm not sold on the Jets offense either, but Pennington COULD return to 2002 form, maybe. Also, the Jets running game has been better in the past, and since Pennington is a pocket QB he hurt by this, not helped by it.
Flux:
As you can see, I responded to the Pennington thing above. And yes, Green did put up great numbers, but he has roughly the same weapons as he did last season.
EVERYONE:
Remember, those rushing yards and TD's make the McNabbs, C-Pepps and Brooks' of the world more valuable. I appreciate any and all comments anywhere from "you're an idiot" to "You a frickin genius!" I'll check back tomorrow (probably late at night) too see what other posts await me. Now that I am basically done with my QB projections I need to start hammering away at the other positions.
definately a different perspective. if this is right i should kill in my two qb league where I have cpepp and brooks. and having pennington below mcCown is crazy. and mcnabb cracks my top 5 this year but I cant possibly rank him first. id be interested to see your rb rankings
Well....I'm sure I'll post my RB projections list when I am through with it....but that may take awhile. Keep on the look out I guess. I sould for sure be done with RB's by a couple weeks from now (I'm probably going to take doing RB's more slowly). If you think you missed it, send me a message to let me know.
I'm a Vikings fan at heart. I have always liked McNabb, but have NEVER had him on one of my fantasy teams as I have not valued him (up to this point) as much as many other owners in my league. This year I am likely going to be valuing him more than others as I see a career year coming and many a owner are down on him. However, I will not overbid for his services, so I may likely end up with Brooks, which would suit me just fine.
I have to say headliner I doubted that those rankings have any logic to them, but I must say you have compiled a surprising and possibly very effective list. Let me know after the season ends how you did.
Thanks man.....I'll probably forget to let you know how things turn out, but if I remember too I will. Yeah, I have logic behind my madness. Thanks for being open minded and thanks for your challenge. I love debating!
