[Runnik's Hambones]

Very early. We don't even know what teams these rookies will be on.

 

[bobbeaux]

very rb (60) & qb (17) heavy as compared to wr (50) . . . and why even bother with def & k in a top 160 . . . i agree it's very early even without the rookies as a lot of roles haven't been defined on many teams . . . not bad dynasty/keeper info though to help those contemplating decisions.

 

[JackG1980]

Is Felix Jones #72 a steal at that position. What about Slaton at #119.

 

[Sgt John]

Yes and Yes.

 

[Cooley Cadets]

Never to early to start evaluating. When I first saw this thread earlier this afternoon I thought of posting - nice job to at least put something out there but will have to come back when I have more time to spend on going through the list.

Had the same impression as bob that it seemed odd to see the D/K's.

Just looking at the positions and not focusing on the players at this point - for basically 13+ rounds worth of players it seems a little heavy on the Rb's but I would have expected around 24 QB's (far enough along to get your back up in a 12 team league). Using the draft as a guideline I would have thought more WR's would be in the group as well.

 

[derringer007]

I dont see F.Gore in the top ten let alone #7, guaranteed to miss 2-3 games because is injury prone.

And L.Fitzgerald should be a top 10

 

[Phicinfan]

Well, A. Peterson is NOT #1. CJ then Rice and Jones-Drew then maybe Peterson.

I also wonder if Turner will slip due to lack of production and injury last year.

 

[storminn0rm]

Well, A. Peterson is NOT #1. CJ then Rice and Jones-Drew then maybe Peterson.

That's what I'm thinking right now

 

[efactor]

I dont see F.Gore in the top ten let alone #7, guaranteed to miss 2-3 games because is injury prone.

:rolllaugh: No, he's not............

Even missing three games, (2 full and all but one play in another), he was still the #6 RB in 2009. So even assuming your flawed logic comes to fruition and he misses 2-3 games, he is still worthy of a top 10 pick. If he plays all 16, he's worth a top 5. The only thing that has limited Gore in the past is lack of TDs, but based on last year, he should get the opportunity to be in double digits again..............

He has a 4.8 YPC for his career running behind a below average OL on a below average passing team. Defenses are designed to stop him and he still excels. IF their passing game continues to make strides and they address the OL early (I hope they use both first rounders on a RT and LG), Gore will be a MONSTER this year............
