Random FF Thoughts

[femurov]

My early 2018 FF standard top 24

1. Todd Gurley
2. Le'Veon Bell - If he stays in Pitt and Ben is back i'm sure some will have him #1
3. David Johnson - Sounds like Arians is gone depending on who they get could move him down, plus his ARZ has an uncertain QB situation
4. Ezekial Elliott
5. Antonio Brown - If Ben or Bell leave i'll be dropping him down if both leave he will be off my board
6. Lesean McCoy
7. Melvin Gordon
8. Kareem Hunt
9. Devonta Freeman
10. Odell Beckham
11. Jordan Howard
12. Julio Jones

13. Alvin Kamara - He really scares me and i'm sure someone will like him more than i do expecting Jeremy Hill like 2nd year hype
14. Mark Ingram - in the unlikely situation he gets 1st team all-pro status and can opt out of his contract it probably bumps him and Kamara up a little
15. Deandre Hopkins
16. Rob Gronkowski
17. Tyreek Hill
18. Saquon Barkley - Recent rookie success he's going to be hyped
19. Kenyan Drake
20. Travis Kelce
21. AJ Green
22. Josh Gordon
23. Zach Ertz
24. Mike Evans

Rookie running backs Derrius Guice and Nick Chubb will probably be getting some pretty good hype too

I think your TEs are too high. Also, I would find a spot for Michael Thomas somewhere. I may move DJ down until we see who the new QB is in Arizona.

1) it amazes me Buffalo has tried to implode on itself (management) yet may advance in the playoffs.
2) I'm predicting that Alex Smith signs with Jacksonville. Quick fix for a team ready to win a championship.

what if ben and brady retire

 

[femurov]

True.
Bortles is a head-scratcher. He went from top 5 QB to Johnny Manziel in a year.

Top 5? Maybe top 10, but top 5 is a bit high.

I was talking in terms of fantasy. In 2015 he's was the 4th-best QB in fantasy points.
This season he actually finished 13th.
But it was a bad year for QB in general with quite a number of them not living up to preseason expectations.

Only if one of them wins this year IMO.

Well, last yr they played from behind in almost every game - and he was the king of garbage time. ... this yr they had a defense and running game that kept them close in just about every game. ...

Brees might be another one. He's 38.

Well, he's having a vintage Brees-like game so far today. ....

May sound Foot-esque, (bat guano crazy), but I kind of like what I hear from Tony Romo as a commentator. I would not be opposed to the Bears giving him a shot as the head coach. I wonder if he's on their radar?

Those Eastern Illinois alum make for good coaches.

I could see him taking Gruden's job on MNF.

that will be sad since gun slinging Brett retired

Brees is my fave player to watch

The critics seem to like the Bears new head coach in Matt Nagy.
Some fans are on the fence.
I like it. But was still compelled to make this:

Tried inserting a Shaggy from Scooby-Doo. But was too difficult to find a clip where he says his own name. So had to settle for Aggy, Maggie, Baggy and Nagy w/o Shaggy.
