Oh Treff, there are. I thought you were being curious by not commenting, lol. Guess your comment could have been worse actually.

Was in the process of getting ready for my money league Draft and putting any more thought into a reply than I did would've just screwed up my mojo.

Charles and Ball? You could have Tyler Thigpen at QB and still compete.

I hope you have a good backup for RGIII - I think WAS offense will be horrible this year, regardless of garbage time pts they might get.

Take it easy on my boys Monkey!

I think Alf is a good bet to rush for 800 + yards and Griffin will throw for at least 2,000. That is good, right?

Sorry T!
WAS is just one of those teams this year, the more and more I look at things, the less and less I want any of their guys on my fantasy team. I have them pegged for a middling 5-7 wins this year, so at least I think they will be better at real football than they were last year!

I think DJax and Garcon pilfer each other, and the defense will force them to be in pass-mode too much. But I'm no prophet - those WRs coupled with Reed working the middle of the field could be exactly what RGIII needs to become a good QB to go with his freakish athletic ability.

They gotta get something from that defense though, or RGIII might start seeing shadows out there from getting rushed so much.

Smo, I enjoy reading your perspective on things, but I think you're a little off track here. Real NFL record may not impact fantasy at all. Bears were 8-8 last year, but Forte, Marshall & Jeffery are top notch fantasy players. Vikings were 5-10-1, yet AP continues to dominate in fantasy.

You know what I think saves the Washington O? Helu. I think Gruden will use him, and Ds will have to account for him, and that will open things a shade more.

I think Monkey was saying that despite an improvement this year at real football, they may be worse in fantasy football.

I don't think this will be a bad thing, but a good thing for RG3 or the wrs!

This will be a learning year for RGIII - he needs to develop his pocket presence and not default to scramble mode. Again, I fully believe the talent is there, it just needs to be developed. Not sure that happens within the first half of the season.

Thanks for clarification but I still disagree. I don't see the Skins spreading the ball around as much as the Saints, Broncos or Pats. The core group is still there. That said, I do wonder how targets will affect DJax vs Garcon. But I also see the Skins sustaining longer drives which should give them just as many fantasy-relevant opportunities as when Shanny stubbornly called the shots.

This is turning into an RGThreadjack, but - I feel like they're essentially monkeying with his swing, and I don't think he's the kind of guy that will get better if you do that (few are).

I have 0 shares of RG3 this year, but I do have DJax and Reed in a couple spots. Suicide, I think.

I also have Morris in 1 league, but only because he is a 7th round keeper. I would not draft him before the end of the third or so.
