I stated that before that I don't think all 3 will return to the top 10, yet I can't make a case against any of these guys.
I would never make such a foolish bet.

It's not so much that I think Brown is in the wrong spot (he could potentially be as high as 7, but 10 isn't bad), it's just that I don't think Jackson or Westbrook are worthy of being FF starters. In reality I don't have them on my board at all.
Guess then i don't understand why you rank someone in the top 10 that your pretty sure won't finish there.....can't pick which one will fail so you place them all in there??
And if it's a foolish bet, wouldn't it make it a foolish ranking :nannie: (just ribbing you on that one)
Just trying to understand how you do your rankings.
Also, want a fun side bet that is a little fairer than all 3 of them finishing in the top 10? How about i put DMac up against them, simple bet, DMac doesn't finish last. He finishes higher than at least one of them in a basic scoring format.

Ahhhh.. meshing 2 thread discussions into 1 avatar bet. Now that's some nice work.
I like the action, and pending the scoring settings, I accept.
Oh and by the way...I just schooled you in the DMac thread.

Wow, I expected my comment about not having Westy or Jax as draftable to bring a derisive statement or something.

you haven't schooled anyone young pup.....you are just scratching the surface of learning
Basic scoring is:
1 pt 10 yds ru/rec, 6 pts TD, 2 pts 2 pt conversion. I put the scoring in the offer.
Not gonna spot me that PPR are ya? Very smooth.
No injury stipulations either?
With me carrying 3 RBs and you carrying 1, I have the much higher chance of having an injury ruin my bet.
My proposition..we either add PPR or an injury rule. If a RB misses 3+ games or more due to injury, he doesn't count. Thoughts??
Oh yeah, and I may be the pup here.. but I schooled ya nontheless.
It's cool. You can admit it. No ones looking.

I wasn't even going to comment on that. It's just ridiculous.
I don't want to get into another 'Dan Marino could throw for 6000 Yds" debate again.

You would honestly draft Westy? Even with his injury history over the past couple of years? Hell, Jackson hasn't been himself in a couple years either. Barely broke a thousand yards last season, although I'll admit that's pretty impressive considering he missed four games.
But that's the crux of my argument. Neither is a reliable start and their ADP means neither will make it out of the second. I can't have that in a league where I only start one RB per week. I don't know when they're going to play or what they're going to do when they do play.
my guy is the biggest injury concern, and my bet was on basic scoring, ppr is not basic scoring. If you have the stones and DMac is such a turd, you should have no issues taking the bet. injuries are part of the game and something I take into consideration on rankings so at least I feel they are relevent here.Not gonna spot me that PPR are ya? Very smooth.

I would most certainly draft Brian Westbrook! Are you kidding me? If the injury is that big of a concern, just grab LeSean in the 14th round to handcuff him. The backup RBs in Philly have shown to fill in nicely when he's hurt.
As far as SJax, yes I would draft him, but he probably will not be on any of my teams.
Explanation : There is no drafting scenario where he finds his way onto my team. He's not in my top 7 PPR RBs, which means the only way Im drafting him is if I have a late pick. If Im picking late and my top 7 PPR RBs are off the board, Im probably taking a top flight WR.

Fair enough. I accept.
The only way you win this bet is if 1 of my guys suffers a multi-game injury.

Maybe you didn't read carefully. In my league I can only start one RB, so handcuffing is worse than useless. I would basically be drafting two RBs for the points of one healthy and productive RB. Not a smart draft strategy in such a league.

Why? Because you couldn't do it in a pass oriented league?

Such a league would have a % of sucking IMHO.
