LOL just looking at the previous ones and man we are all over with our projected rankings lol....

 

[numone9er]

I hope i'm being underestimated. I have some serious question marks as far as my first few picks go. Foster's hamstring, will Peyton play, and will Bowe have the kind of success he did last season. I'm not really concerned with it. I always do well in the second half of the season, but i will let my team do my talking for me. GL all.

 

[PWilly52]

we have 4 so far...... gonna wait on everyone to put out final ranking

 

[PWilly52]

1. CrownMyAss
2. OptimusPrime
3. WestCoastO
4. Myrmidons
5. Fe-Fi-Fo-Fum
6. 2 Mannings 1 Succop

Wow, I'm second to last in 3 now...we shall see.

 

[CalamityX11]

^ LOL....

Hey we are looking at this differently... I'm not sure if there's any consistency amongst the teams.

 

[PWilly52]

its all speculation anyway no one really knows just kinda interesting to see what everyone else thinks.

numone9er you will have to use this info as pregame hype for your team. lol

 

[PWilly52]

ray, optimus, etc .......no one else wanna give opinion?

Haha i know right? I should have waited for others to post so they weren't all pissed off at me.

Plus i have Peyton on the bench with Orton starting for now, so maybe people thought less of me for that reason.

 

[PWilly52]

yea prob I know I just did a quick glance at everyones team not really looking at bench so i def missed peyton.

 

[numone9er]

Really, Really Quick Scan of CURRENT STARTING ROSTERS. I did not have time to look at benches....so that could skew rankings. I assumed early picks will be starters in Week 1. Also, I did this so fast, I may make some roster typos, apologies in advance.

1)Crown (still kicking myself I missed Harvin. I'm not a huge Addai fan, S. Rice w/TJax tossing it to him-blah, lukewarm on Forte)
2)2Mannings (Not a McFadden fan; still pissed he got J. Graham; if Marshall has a QB, this team could be #1)
3)West Coast O (MJD might lose carries to Jennings, I wanted Jennings late; Don't like Leo Wash)
4)Real (Vick's health over long season, LT's age, never been a huge Benson fan)
5)Tally Ho (Foster's Hammy, Grant's return from injury, is Bowe legit?)
6)Fox (Freeman has to produce, Benjarvus is likely going to drive me nuts, Julio is a big unknown, can Collie stay healthy and who's throwing him the ball? Mainly, WR ?'s)
7)Myrmidons (hate Lee Evans, always have; CJ contract could cause problems, not sold on Beanie as feature back)
8) Haters (Mainly production doubts on S. Smith, Deangelo Williams, and Jacobs)
9) Optimus (J. Best, M. Ingram, and Hightower; no proven stud in there. If 2 of 3 produce, this ranking will be too low; if 2 of 3 don't, this ranking is possibly too high)
10) Fe Fi Fo (Is Lloyd for real? I say no; Maclin's health always scares me; Other than Charles, not a huge fan of RB's)
11) New York (Don't like R. Bush, Lynch, or Marion Barber; Gonzalez is done, IMO)
12) VP (Respectable draft considering it was auto;however, WR's might kill this team: Britt, R. Williams, Steve Johnson)

All that being said, injuries, waiver pick-ups, and trades will play a huge role...always does. No one flip out, I'm not criticizing anyone personally. Just my take on the teams. I'll gladly eat crow at the end of the season.
Regards.

Nice post explaining things. I should probably go back and do something similar. Which one are you again?

 

[tomikcon1971]

The Silver Fox

 

[numone9er]

That's right. You stole Jennings away from me just in time. You have a couple of solid keepers at the very least.

 

[CalamityX11]

Fox is ranked #4 in Calamity's preseason Rankings....

hmmm.... i sense trouble from this guy.

 

[numone9er]

Nobody really knows shit right now. Injuries and waiver pick ups will change things, but unfortunately i really like Bingo's lineup the best right now.

That's because he drafted 7 guys I had wanted right before me!!!!

Yeah Bingo I counted them all!

 

[numone9er]

Bradford over Ben still has me curious...not sure that's going to last...

He got Big Ben real late, so that was super value for him. I'm sure the Bradford over Ben will fade withing 3 weeks into the season.

can we make this thread a sticky?
