redskins4life234 Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Pretty decent. I drafted portis last yr, and people in my school when we talked about ti said it was a stupid first round pick. Paid off for me towards the end of the season. [My team still sucked overall, injury devasted] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoudMouth12thMan Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Nope LJ should be below Alexander, LT, Barber, and Portis. Like the NFL Live boys said the other day, ya can't rate him based on 9 games. You gotta give the edge to the guys who did it all season long. HTTR!,......editing-if this is fantasy league stuff uhhhhhhh I have nothing to say 'cuz I don't have any friends that like fantasy football Please be my friend and invite me into a league this year...please someone teach me the ways of FANTASY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbarton3 Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 I think CP should be ahead of Tiki. Tiki is like 87 years old........ should be called "Antiquie Barber" :doh: DITTO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaudry Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Lamont was a very good fantasy RB last season, mostly because of his receiving skills. Rushing: 1025 yards, 9 TD's Receiving: 563 yards, 2 TD's 1500+ total yards and 11 TD's is pretty good for 14 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnhay Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 I wouldn't even put Jordan in the top 10. Why not? He had a great year in '05, why wouldn't he have a great year in '06? edge should definately be ahead of jordan I'd pick Jordan before Edge honestly. Arizona had the worst running game in the league last year. They were so close to setting the record for least rushing yards. James will make them improve of course, but it's still a concern.

Cooley4President Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 I think everyone's agreed on a top 5 of LJ, LT, Alexander, Barber, and Portis (in some varying order), then there is a perceived big drop off after the #5 spot. My question is why isn't Rudi Johnson included with the leftovers, not the top group? The last 2 years he's had 1454 and 1458 yards, respectively, with 12 TD each year. Seems to me he shouldn't be grouped with guys like Jordan, Westbrook, Brown, Davis, etc. I see Johnson as much more of a sure thing than the other "non-top-5ers".

DD and Westbrook (Westbrook had some big games though) were 17th and 18th in fantasy points last year, so I see your point there. Lamont Jordan was 8th, while Rudi Johnson was 7th. Rudi probably should be in the top 10. EDIT: I didn't even notice Rudi was in the top ten already. There's nothing wrong with him being 7th.

EnFoRcEr_uPu Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 I think given certain situations that players are in, such as Edge being new in Arizona in an unpredictable offense, those rankings are fair. However, there is a LOT of sliding room within those top 5 backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cambl2Moss Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Top 5 rankings are dead on if Johnson has the same season for all 16 games that he had during limited time last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouvan59 Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 When L. Tomlinson wasn't rated first it lost me.... I'm not sure LT should be rated first though. People think that Johnson was only good last year but he had a heck of a year in 2004 when he got to touch the ball. LT is more of a sure thing especially considering the coaching staff change in KC but Johnson's upside is enormous. Here are his numbers in his 12 career starts: rushing 330-1,627-21 4.93 ypc receiving 39-434-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
