Re: BigFooty Fantasy Football League
Yeah, that's all fair enough. That's the 'expectation' for each person there. Things dont always go to plan tho. I'm personally not uptight about the rankings, good on dspeed for being ranked so high by various sources and analysts here.
I just think of the NFL proper. Pre-season and early season team rankings. Yet often it all changes. You get your surprise packets (highly ranked teams that go down - Carolina, and poorly ranked teams that go high - Saints).
Guys - we dont know... and working out averages isnt going to help, it may only just give comfort.
Higher picks obviously have higher chances of being a greater impact, and as a result getting more fantasy points. But this is no guarentee... a 7th rounder may be the best (but unlikely as the NFL teams do a lot of testing and analysis).
Johnson a #2 pick - comes in as an exceptional talent... very rare a WR goes that early?... becoming more common. = Fitzgerald
Jarrett was projected first round... fell to second... that raises alarm bells for me. Plus he is paired with a WR who is heavily favoured and I'd suggest the 2nd receiver in the carolina offense has little room for improvement. Jarrett could be a short yardage receiver as he doesnt have the speed?... that could be flipped in TD chances, but very airy fairy stuff.
Bowe... last 1st rounder right?... its been a long time since we have seen a good receiver in the KC offence... now they lose Green and have a rookie and a guy thats been a career backup throwing... and Kennison, etc whoever are still about. Early reports indicate his progress will be slow...
Ginn... regarding as a massive reach so maybe you say he is similar to Bowe (as that is where he should have gone)... however he may see some returning action... Chambers and Booker already exist... hard to see him doing much more than 400 yds and a couple of TDs... but obviously Miami want to prove they did the right thing and may give him a lot of opportunities to succeed.
