Cincinnati Ginger vs any QB not named Drew or Peyton

Julius caught twice as many TD's though

There are not many TEs who receive 90+ targets, only 9 did in 2013. Four of Bennett’s five TDs were with Jay Cutler under center.

Culter accounted for 60% of total Completions and TDs

you're going to draft these players based on their 2013 production, and with hindsight being 20/20, why not wait for the value players.

2014 isn't 2013.

many have similar situations

Cutler- elite WRs marshall,alshon w/ PPR RB(forte)
Fitz-elite WRs AJ,Hopkins w/ PPR RB(foster)

Gio-split with Hill...more chance of losing carries(hill bellcow)
J.Bell-split with Bush...more chance of gaining carries(bush hurt)

Thomas-dynamic passing game wide open middle
Bennet-dynamic passing game wide open middle

Lacy-fragile back(starks and Harris) (26pts/game team avg)
Matthews-fragile back(Brown and woodhead) (24pts/game team avg)

Bell-split Blount(5ypc career avg)
MJD- split DMAC(3.3 ypc 2 year avg)


just saying it's not that far of a spread/forecast for 2014

The only thing I take away from the article is that players outperform their ADP all the time and there's plenty of value to be had in the later rounds. The discrepancy in ADP is due to the the fact you have no idea who those overachievers are going to be... it's just a guess. Players at a higher ADP have a higher likelihood of giving you numbers.

In each of those cases, while their numbers were similar last year, you go for the better bet at the higher ADP the majority of the time. You also have to factor in ceiling and floor as well... which this piece does not.

No one was knocking down doors to sign Blount. He'll get 5-7 carries a game not a real impact on Bell

---

he's disrespected and then outperforms starters

among active RB's with over 500 carries, Blount is the 5th best RB in ypc(4.7...hindered by that lone year(3.7) with Dmart that had him in in only short yardage situations)

Pats stuck him back on returns and he finished having the 4th BEST KR avg last year at 29.1

quote:

---

Blount is a powerful hammer back who can get what's blocked but possesses no wiggle and stones for hands.

---

how can people say this?


some from last year

stones for hands

I'd say so... LINK
