Do the exact same thing with Darren McFadden. Does this make him a top 50 player as well? 
Yes ... mathematically so in the NFFC. Otherwise we would be saying "my top 50" IMO. [/QUOTE]I'm talking more about REALITY than ADP.
Simply because there's at least one owner in every league who overvalues a player doesn't make him a "Top whatever" in my book.
Every season there are players who are extremely overvalued, doesn't mean they are good, it means too many people bought the hype. [/QUOTE]LMAO ... as long as were talking about only YOUR reality ... I'm OK with that!
According to what you just said ... you always love all of the top 50 players. Because in your reality ... if you don't like them ... they are not a top 50 player.
So let me get this straight ... if you don't believe the hype "that Brady is going to make a come back from his injury" ... He is clearly not a top 50 player?
Hmmm ... sounds a lot like "YOUR" top 50 ... rather than a generally accepted top 50 player.
Just as a side note ... if you think someones (say mine) player values are overrated ... by default ... They (I) must think your players are also overrated because you "bought into the hype" of those players ... as we both have 50 top players and for every player not on your list ... you have a player not on my list.
Just a thought. [/QUOTE]Mike, you been hangin with GG? Please don't put words into my mouth. What you attempted to have me say isn't even close to what I was saying. You know darn well what I am talking about regarding hype. Ex: James Davis doesn't break off that 80+ yard run against 4th stringers and he's not mentioned more than 1 time in the top 10 rounds.
Perception vs. Reality. Like I DID say, I liked Gonzo, but he always went to early for my liking....McFadden, please, actually watch the guy play and people would see he's not a top 50 player like they PERCEIVE.
Also, your Brady example is poor, he's proven something, others mentioned have not.
And again, simply because there's a few people in every draft who overvalue a player doesn't justify his lofty draft status. Their value gets driven due to the perception that owners have to have certain players and the owners must take the certain players earlier than everybody else. If people weren't worried about getting certain players and didn't "reach" for them, you wouldn't see the unproven players getting drafted so early.
Adam Caplan created a wonderful name for these players, "INTERNET ICONS" because ultimately, that's what many of them are.
It's the same mentality in a DC...."oh no, one kicker was selected, I better get two for myself before I get shut out!" Go draft a DC league with non-NFFC members and see if the follow the herd mentality exists.
My hole point was towards GX anyways....because a player is drafted in the top 50, it doesn't make him a top 50 player. Now don't you have some Purple Jersey to go caress!
FAITH IS NOT BELIEVING THAT GOD CAN....
IT IS KNOWING THAT HE WILL
