Could be wrong, but no one has mentioned Harvin. #7 PPG and drafted in the 2nd or third round of our keeper draft.
Outscoring, Calvin Johnson, Fitzgerald, and Austin

McCoy and Steve Smith are not busts. You people are ridiculous.
McCoy is on pace for 1,200 rushing. 66 receptions 300 yards receiving
last year he ran for 1300 yards and had 48 catches for 315 yards.
touchdowns have always been and always will be RANDOM. It's more of a team result than a players individual skill.
Take Dwayne Bowe for instance. in 2010 he caught 15 TDs. Everyone drafted him early in 2011, but people say he disappointed. Well, he only caught 5TDs, but he had the same amount of yardage as the year before. Which is why he was so high on my sleeper board this year. Even if he upticks those 5 TDs to 8 or 9, he's a top 10 WR with the yardage he is proven to get. TD's are RANDOM.
Steve Smith is on pace 67 catches and 1,250 yards receiving.
last year he had 79 catches for 1395 yards & 7 TDs.
to expect that kind of results again after 2009 & 2010 when people thought he was done is kind of silly.
He doesn't have a TD yet this year, but he is getting targeted and still gaining yardage. Telling me odds are eventually he will find the endzone. At worst he'll end up a WR2.
to call either one a bust is fricking dumb. They are producing, just not scoring TDs.....which again, are random.

Smith got drafted in the 4th in both my leagues. The problem is that the Panthers are looking horrible and it doesn't look like things are getting better.
Ok so he's not a Ryan Leaf bust, but he has grossly underperformed based on where he was drafted. Just depends on how you define bust.

Nobody got Run DMC as a bust? I'd list him before McCoy for DAMN sure.

Bjge huge bust
Posted on 10/17/12 at 3:58 pm to Tigah32
frick Greg Jennings
Posted on 10/17/12 at 4:07 pm to Tigah32
LeSean McCoy being on your bust list is a complete joke, at least in PPR. #6 RB in my league so far. Been very consistent with 17-18 a game. The TDs will come. We will see where he ends up.
Also I don't see how a guy like AJ Green, a Top 5 WR pick in all of my leagues is a steal while Reggie Wayne, a 7th-8th round pick is not a steal.

Mcfadden is a bust so far for me.
I think he turns it around second half though.
Oh and CJ0K.

Dude we aren't talking about busts as far as actual production; we are talking about Fantasy busts. Yes TDs can be very random, which is why FF is way more luck than skill or knowledge.
McCoy being drafted in the top 2-3 and being the 27th RB is disappointing, whether it not its his fault

He's the 6th RB in PPR.

I got Manning, Reggie Wayne, and Sproles all very cheap in an auction based league. They've pulled more weight for me than Ray Rice and Megatron, though those twos' numbers aren't bad either.

Thank you.
The only true steal I can say so far is Alfred Morris because he was borderline not worth drafting. Everyone else was pretty much a known commodity or at least had the upside to be back to their elite days.

I dk who "they" are, I'm specifically talking about McCoy. I wouldn't say he's a bust in the normal since, he's still a good Fantasy back, but considering how many people (including me) picked him over a guy like Ray Rice, he hasn't lived up to his expectations so far.
All that needs to change is for the Eagles to stop being retarded and letting Vick drop back 50 times a game, and start running inside the 10 yard line...

McCoy is 6th among all RBs in average points per week in PPR
all I want out of my 1st round pick is consistent production and to not get hurt. He's doing both.
you cant kick yourself if he is producing and just not getting into the endzone. That's not his fault. Chance are if your team is struggling, its because the rest of your draft sucked.

yeah I got a great bargain for CJ Spiller, $3.
We started with a $250 budget. I started the bidding on him late in the draft. I'm not real sure why he slipped through the cracks like that. I guess it is because its a IDP league. That is one thing I can say I like about the IDP league. Guys end up spending big on the first few defensive studs that are auctioned. It never fails, a handful of solid offensive players are there for the taking later on
