Okay, PPR may pop it up a few points a week, so 12 points isn't a crazy expectation for RB2.
But McFadden projected between 11-13 in PPR is either averaging in 3 or 4 zeroes over for games lost or it's insane.
11-13 pts per start for McFadden is what McFadden did last year in that terrible zone blocking scheme. Even Treff avoided him last year and warned everybody else to avoid him, too.
In PPR scoring in 2010 / 2011 McFadden averaged a cool 18 pts per start - that's eighteen - and that's including the two games where he was knocked out early. If you take those games out he averaged 20. Not that he sometimes managed to get 20. He averaged 20.
Here are his PPR scores for the six games he finished in 2011: 16, 31, 32, 15, 8, 16
MJD may do better than DMC over the season, but if you only count starts, DMC will clobber him, and in PPR he will absolutely demolish him. And MJD isn't right physically either.
Point #1: You're propping him up for a whopping 6 - that's 6 - finished games out of 16. That proves my point how much of a reach he is that this is your ammo for the guy.
Point #2: Since we're talking about 2011, here are MJD's point totals: 15, 13, 19, 9, 14, 11, 12, 14, 22, 21, 19, 24, 37, 12, 24, 17. That's just under 18 PPG, so not getting "absolutely demolished" in the slightest by McFadden, but what I love the most? It's 16 games, not 6. This is my entire point. You can have your 5 weeks of awesome production, 1 week of below average production and 10 weeks of nothing. I'd rather have 11 weeks of awesome production, 3 weeks of average production and 2 weeks of below average production.
