Can't all be winners kid
...........thread of helpful and not so helpful observaitons........please feel free to add as we get closer to your draft! First off, Stevan Ridley ran for 1263 yards and 12 TD's last year. Pretty damn good season for a RB that is on a "pass first" team right? Did you know that of his 12 TD's only 1 came from more than 10 yards out (14 yarder). The reason I bring this up is as most of us know by now the Pats traded Demps and a pick away for LeGerrette Blount. Now, BB has a way of well, let's just say making your fantasy RB situation just a little more interesting from year to year. Is Blount gonna steal those GL looks from Ridley? If he steals even just 1/3 thats 24 FP's in TD's alone in standard scoring leagues. Now personally I believed Blount to be pretty much washed up but the Pats do not usually just throw picks around for nothing...........so did Ridley's value just take a pretty good sized hit? I think it just may have! Am I saying go out and draft you a Blount? Nope and I am certainly not saying avoid Ridley. Just temper expectations as LB could really cut into Ridley's TD production this season.
