I'll start with the most obvious one today Kelly - thoughts on the Vikings' skill players if Favre stays retired?

Adrian Peterson? Still top 2?

Sidney Rice? Top 10 still? Or now just Top 20?

Longwell? Is he still a starting kicker in fantasy?

Visanthe Shiancoe? Is he no longer a starting fantasy TE?

How does this affect all of their fantasy value now?

With Jason in Oakland at QB, the WR core will put up better numbers then last year. Outside of Z.Miller (WR only) can you give me some predicted stats of the Oakland WR's. Whos gonna lead WR's in receptions?

1Hardesty/Harrison

If both RBs are healthy come season start.... who will end up with more FF pts at the end of the year and what kind of split will they have?


2What rookie WR will have the biggest impact on their team in terms of them scoring ff points. Can you list your top 5 in terms of potential this year.

3I am looking to take a late round gamble on one of N.E RB's... Which one should I target?


4Will there be only one starting QB in Denver this year?

5will Owen Daniels pick up where he left off? Or will he not reach what he did in the past.


6Who has a better chance of playing more games this season
Ronnie Brown
Felix Jones
Ahmad Bradshaw

7 will Jacoby Jones take over at WR #2 by mid season or sooner?

8 Who do you like better for this year, Jordy Nelson or James Jones?

9 Thoughts on Wes Welker and Edelman

ty in advance

You are on the clock with the 6th pick and the following players are now gone: CJ, Rice, MJD, AP, AJ

Who would you take 6th and why?

So now you've picked 6th in the first round, name 3 players you would target or hope to choose from in the 2nd?

-----------

In this format, when would you target a QB or TE?

What is your favorite fantasy sports format? Live Drafts, salary cap, daily/weekly games, other?

Do you play High Stakes FF? How have you performed (list accomplishments)?

How many leagues will you play in this year?

Name one breakout player at each skill position?

One perceived stud at each position that will not live up to the hype this year?

Given the 3RR draft format in the NFFC what is your preferred draft order (1-14) and why?

Thanks

There's no doubt that all the skilled position players take a bit of a hit with Favre not in the line-up, but it's just a matter of when to take them.

Adrian Peterson? Still top 2?
In my mind he's still a top 2 RB. The Vikes still have a great offensive line

Sidney Rice? Top 10 still? Or now just Top 20?

I didn't look at Rice as a top 10 WR, but I still see him definitely in the top 20

Longwell? Is he still a starting kicker in fantasy?

I look at kickers on a weekly basis. Yes, Longwell is still a starter even with Favre out.

Visanthe Shiancoe? Is he no longer a starting fantasy TE?

Sure, his value takes a hit, but I don't think the Vikes move away from using the TE, so I still view him as a lower end starting TE

How does this affect all of their fantasy value now? [/QUOTE]We really have to see how the 2nd and 3rd pre-season games play out.

Whos gonna lead WR's in receptions? Oakland's WR's should benefit with Campbell at QB. He will be making better decisions and should put up better numbers than the Raiders have see over the last couple of seasons. As far as the WR's go, I see Chaz Schilens (if healthy)in the 700-750 yard range, Murphy, again he's been hurt in pre-season, but if healthy in the 500-50 range, Johnnie Lee Higgins 300 + yards and Darrius Heyward Bey 300-350 yards

As far as who will lead in receptions, I do like Miller first with Schilens a close second.
